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.'

Sorry not to have posted in so long...

Nearly a week... well, no one is perfect.

My wife has been posting pretty regularly on her blog and she touched on some things that I have always emphasized when teaching.  Catholics need to regain a respect for the Middle Ages, for Christendom, and not allow themselves to be shamed into condemning it by the dominant Moderno-Protestant-Revolutionary-Ideologies that permeate our society. 

I promise to get back to this issue soon, but just to leave you with something to think about... the English-speaking world is predominantly Protestant and secular... our biases, then, are also Protestant and secular, so make sure to consider this when revisiting their percetions of the Catholic Middle Ages.
