We Were Like Men Who Dreamed. Sunday, February 3, 2013. The Man in the Mirror. He was given to fits of rage, Jewish liberal paranoia, male chauvinism, self-righteous misanthropy, and nihilistic moods of despair. He had complaints about life but never any solutions. He longed to be an artist but balked at the necessary sacrifices. In his most private moments, he spoke of his fear of death, which he elevated to tragic heights when in fact it was mere narcissism.". Woody Allen, Manhattan. Tender is the Night.

We Were Like Men Who Dreamed. Sunday, June 10, 2012. Top Ten Alternatives to "Christianity Isn't a Religion.". So, there's nothing wrong with the idea per se. I thought it could be fun and useful to think of some alternatives. Here's what I came up with:. 10) Christianity is not an arbitrary list of rules that are impossible to follow, it's an offer from God to deliver us from how messed up we are. 4) Christianity is not an irrelevant tradition defended by pedophiles, it's a rich spiritual heritage epito...

We Were Like Men Who Dreamed. Wednesday, February 29, 2012. I already screwed up Lent. I don't write about my own life a lot. It's safer to stick to the realm of ideas. Stories, theology, film, whatever. Quotes. On the one hand, there's a level of self-disclosure sometimes done in the blogosphere that is over-sharing plain and simple. But if you're trying to establish sensible boundaries, where do you draw the line? We're all mad here.". A true myth, of course, as Lewis said. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

We Were Like Men Who Dreamed: August 2013
http://mikerad83.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
We Were Like Men Who Dreamed. Friday, August 9, 2013. The following is the short homily I preached at Shepherd's Heart this morning. The gospel text for the day (on which it's based) is Mark 9:14-29, in which Jesus has just come down from the transfiguration on a mountain and immediately performs an exorcism. He protests, “All things can be done for the one who believes.” The father’s response is priceless- “I believe; help my unbelief! But I don’t quite believe. Isn’t that all of us? Tender is the Night.

Here are some of the things I said, with additions:. I can't get a read on this guy's (the filmmaker's) perspective after watching a half hour of this. Not sure whether that's good or bad.".
