Notes of a Young Seminarian ~ 1947

They taught us to walk

with our heads down

so as to keep our thoughts

fixed on You,

which we duly practiced;

not because of the rule,

but solely because 

we wanted You.

Notes-Seminarian

A Dying Nation ~

Where is the Commander-in-Chief ?

Covid-19 ~

What a humiliation for those who think they are so powerful.

Easter Sunday ~ 2,000 deaths

Our soothsayers -- how are they reformulating now?

Covid-19 ~

It is quiet in quarantine, but I can hear the birds chirping.

Our Own Fault ~

Many of us make our own idols-- and then, adoringly, bend the knee before them.

Wielding Power ~

Can the Coronavirus be tweeted away?

After Impeachment Failed~

Congratulations America!

Now we have a Dictator. 

His First Impeachment Trial ~

They told us, all 52 of them, that they had refused to consider the facts, and without further ado, proudly acquitted him. 

Casting a spell ~

The majority of Germans fell victim to Adolf Hitler's strong magic spell.

Abrupt Ending ~

On the town square this morning I watched them wrap a chain around the stem of the massive Christmas tree and hitch it to the back of a tractor. They then dragged it away, down along the main street. People stopped along the sidewalks and watched it passing by.

How Trust is Destroyed ~

Since in office Washington Post has listed 15,413 false or misleading statements made by the President.

The Founding Fathers ~

The good Germans didn't have a mechanism like impeachment to oust Adolph Hitler.

Never Trumper Republicans ~

What did he call his political opponents? "Human scum"?

The Greater USA ~

What about the Kurds, the valiant Peshmerga fighters, who fought and died for us? He abandoned them.
