CWR Blog: f I were running the Eastern Orthodox Council by Dr. Adam A. J. DeVille
The Orthodox Council, if it takes place, must ask itself: Why should people care about this Council and about Orthodox Christianity itself? Why is it relevant?

Love for One's Neighbor
Seek to reveal in yourself spiritual love for your neighbours: by entering into it, you will enter into love for God, through the gates of the resurrection and through the gates of the kingdom of heaven.

Rod Dreher: Pope To Commemorate Reformation
A cheerleader for Christian unity without the theological acumen or wisdom to foster reconciliation? What is needed is a bishop-theologian who can simply and plainly state the differences between Lutheran and Catholic (not just Roman) teaching on justification and show how Catholic teaching is apostolic while Lutheran teaching is not, and I don't think Pope Francis is that man.

NLM: Documentary About the Original Divine Mercy Image - Is This Really What Christ Looked Like? by David Clayton
"I did hear a story that Sr Faustina was never happy with the image either, and in the end, reluctantly agreed to its use assuming that no artist could ever reproduce satisfactorily what she had seen. Then years later, so the story went as related to me, she saw an image of Christ painted in the iconographic style and said, “That’s what he looked like!” I can’t corroborate this, but I find it plausible."

But what of modesty?
No one's addressed that issue in the recent change made by Pope Francis regarding whose feet can be washed on Maundy Thursday, not even Fr. Hunwicke has addressed it. (One Benedictine defender of the change alludes to the question of modesty but believes it to be culture-specific rather than pertaining to a universal norm.) Would Christ or the Apostles have washed the feet of women in their time? If not, why not? Because of cultural norms? Even if that is the case that those norms are particular to a culture, what is their reason? I would argue because of the respect for modesty. A man might wash his mother's feet or his wife's out of necessity, but those of a stranger?
And will women really respect bishops and priests who cater to them in this symbolic gesture of service, which may even be taken as another instance of pedestalizing them? As if there isn't enough white-knighting already in the Latin churches. (See for example the Benedictine defender, who seems to be a sympathizer with feminism.)

How odd...
Next month there will be a screening of The Young Messiah, hosted by Ignatius Press, MOTIVE Entertainment, Ocean Blue Entertainment, 1492 Pictures and CJ Entertainment. Why is Ignatius Press giving support to a movie based on the novel of Anne Rice (and her use of gnostic sources, among others)?
The Latin overemphasis on the humanity of Christ?
ABOUT THE MOVIE:
Remaining true to the character of Jesus revealed in the Bible, The Young Messiah is an inspirational story for the whole family about the childhood of the Savior.
When the mystery of Jesus’ divinity begins to unfold in His childhood, He turns to His parents for guidance. But Mary and Joseph, in an effort to protect their child, are afraid to reveal all they know. How do you explain the ways of the world to the Creator of the world? How do you teach the Teacher? How do you help the Savior who came to save you?
Follow the young Messiah as He and His family take the dangerous journey from Egypt to Nazareth and on to Jerusalem, where His true identity and profound destiny is fulfilled.
What people are saying about THE YOUNG MESSIAH:
"This film will be great for my imagination for many weeks and many months to come...What was really important and well-done was the way that faith is challenged in very complex situations, but at times there is a clarity that shines through and a simplicity of the faith that is just inspiring and leaves you with a sense that God enters into this violent world and brings something very different." - Bishop Thomas Olmsted, Diocese of Phoenix
"Captivating, inspiring, deeply moving." -Cardinal Sean P. O'Malley, OFM Cap., Boston
“Beautiful film with a compelling story. It is sure to be a classic for families for years to come.” - Rev. David L. Guffey, CSC, Family Theater Productions
"Engaging, tender...fall in love with Jesus Christ all over again." -Lisa Hendey, Founder & Editor, CatholicMom.com

Chiesa: The “No” To Pope Francis From the Chief Rabbi of Rome by Sandro Magister
He said it during the meeting with the pope at the synagogue. And it is the refusal to “discuss theology” with the Catholic Church. Because of Jewish fears of a blurring of that which distinguishes them from Christians?
