pilgrimlog: When asked these questions by James Taranto of The Wall Street Journal, here is what Cardinal Dolan said: “Do we ever!” the archbishop replies with a hearty laugh. “I’m not afraid to admit that we have an internal catechetical challenge—a towering one—in convincing our own people of the…

Life Outside the Lines: Song of Solomon 6:3... →
lovesmosaic: I take notice of my generation and it fills me with frustration as I see royalty toss their crowns for a moment of elation. It’s not just what I can see, it’s encompassing the nation because purity has undergone a process of cremation. I’m not saying it’s dead, but we did try to kill it, put it under fire when parents’ tried to instill it. Scattered it’s ashes to the edges...

Breaking for Him: Don't Cross the Line →
smilingatthefuture: Oh, the endless question of, what’s okay and what’s not okay? This seems to be the big question in today’s Christian circles. Can we hold hands? Can we kiss? Can we sit basically on top of each other? Can we lie on the couch/bed together and cuddle? I mean, we’re not really doing anything. We just…

You Deserve Better
You deserve better than this. You deserve better than a guy who cheats on you,  a guy who lies to you and tries to make you do what you said you won’t. You deserve better than this.  You deserve better than a guy who uses you, one who manipulates you, and tries to get you to believe  every last lie he says. Honey, you deserve better than this. If you don’t listen to...

Hooking Up: Is it a Big Deal? →
One night in high school, my ex-boyfriend’s best friend called me up. He told me that he and his girlfriend, and my ex-boyfriend, were all hanging out, and that I should come over. From the tone in his voice and slight innuendo in his words, I knew what this meant. My ex-boyfriend and I had played the “friends with benefits” game before. Thus I wasn’t surprised and actually felt a bit flattered...
