On the topic of catholic education, a friend points me to this encyclical (Dec/21/1929), which in turn quotes this one (Jan/10/1890). Worthy reading, and not only for internet debate purposes. ==> Though you will quickly learn not to quote to selectively, lest your opponent trounce you with a counter-quote from the same document.
So there’s something to do tonight, in order to not think about eating. For example if your next door neighbors are grilling steaks.
The popes. The internet. Powerful combination.
Exhaustively and exhaustingly substantial.
Thanks for the link.
The older one is pretty light! You can do it a paragraph at a time, because it is pretty comfortably written that way. (I haven’t read the newer one yet.) Though do not stick it in your pocket to take to a party in case you get bored. The temptation is too great. Don’t ask me how I know.
