All culture arises out of religion. When religious faith decays, culture must decline, though often seeming to flourish for a space of time after the religion which has nourished it has fallen into disbelief... no cultured person should remain indifferent to the erosion of apprehension of the transcendent.'

Well, I take it back

I just experienced a grace-filled Easter Vigil Mass with my children (who were both over-tired and well-behaved... hence, the grace-filled)... It really reminded of why I love the Church and why I ended up converting to begin with.

I actually received my confirmation at Easter Vigil Mass in 2002 and so, I guess, it will always remain close to me.

We also watched The Passion of the Christ last night, which I have not seen in nearly 7 years. The film is still amazing and inspiring (even though Mel Gibson has gone off the deep end recently... pray for his reconversion).

Overall, this has been a glorious Lent and looks to be a glorious Easter season.
