I came on this morning thinking to post this, then saw some of the other comments, and started to write up something more, but decided to let it go , at least for now. So now I'll just say what I was thinking to add to the discussion this morning. Here is where I see the most damage from this (extr...

Computer addiction is a widespread problem now among otherwise healthy adults. There are actually "boot camps" in Japan to assist breaking children of this addiction. J.M. Perhaps you could expand on this boot camp method in the threads for solutions to addictions. It's sounds interesting...

I found this a relevant graphic: http://i.imgur.com/7xHaUXf.jpg I think I would score many of these much differently. :lol: I would suggest that if you lived in the UK, you would likely feel that the BBC was middle, and Fox far right. But we play or politics on a different part of the field. J.M.

Methinks that one addicted to video games would never make it through his postulant year. Could you imagine one of those video games profaning the "Great Silence." J.M. Indeed :lol: It's always better to stop a problem situation before it starts. Monastic and religious communities emphasi...

Great topic, Wade. In our church we have the illustration of St Patrick who used the three lobed clover leaf to explain the concept of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as 3 in 1.

The adult spends at least five years' trial period living with the ...

Has anyone heard of Chromebooks being used as a viable method of filtering/monitoring Internet usage amongst groups of users? I would not consider them ideal for this. Although you could set up a proxy server under their flavor of Linux to do just that, just about any desktop would be better, even ...

I'm wondering what parishes have "membership".. my roommate is becoming Catholic as is an old coworker. They are working towards being confirmed (is that the right term?) and then would be allowed to take the Eucharist (although one already takes it and apparently his priest doesn't care)...

i don't understand the focus on max. and i don't understand the need for onlookers to defend max max is a big boy. he can defend himself. getting others involved just leads to more drama. which wasn't necessary in this thread. max started a topic of conversation that included a question on how thin...

Effective enough to be endorsed by people who should know better! I have long suspected that the religious right was fundamentally a political movement with religious trappings. Mr. Trump all but proves it. J.M. I think that stereotypes and groups a lot of people into one when most the ones who vot...
