  6. Did you know that a "Devil’s advocate" used to be a real job?

    When deciding who should be canonised, the Roman #Catholic #Church used to require someone to argue against a candidate.

    The Devil’s advocate would point out any flaws, past and present, which would keep a person from qualifying as saintly.

    Today, this position of negativity has been abolished. Now the Dicastery for the Causes of Saints, a kind of court, instead assesses the arguments *for* #sainthood.

  24. "The Eucharist is in the poor." Martha Hennessy, granddaughter of Catholic Worker Movement co-founder Dorothy Day, continues her grandmother's mission of radical Christian discipleship.

  26. A quotation from Orwell

    The essence of being human is that one does not seek perfection, that one is sometimes willing to commit sins for the sake of loyalty, that one does not push asceticism to the point where it makes friendly intercourse impossible, and that one is prepared in the end to be defeated and broken up by life, which is the inevitable price of fastening one’s love upon other human individuals. No doubt alcohol, tobacco and so forth are things that a saint must avoid, but sainthood is also a thing that human beings must avoid.

    George Orwell (1903-1950) English writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
    Essay (1949-01), “Reflections on Gandhi,” Partisan Review

  29. A quotation from Orwell

    Many people genuinely do not wish to be saints, and it is probable that some who achieve or aspire to sainthood have never felt much temptation to be human beings.
