FINDING TRUTH WHEREVER IT MAY BE FOUND: "We need to be servants of Christ. Not servants to other's emotions, not servants to desires, not servants to manipulation." Fr. Gene Fulton.
QUOTE II: "(Slogans) replace arguments and proofs, skirting man's reason. in colleges and universities they foster academic deterioration, degrade learning, and anesthetize logic - all enemies of wisdom and truth." Alice von Hildebrand

Dr. Trew sent this in and it is well worth noting. You might remember when Adam's Ale gave you the heads up about the film "Bella" and the screening at Tower City in Akron where the audience got to meet the star of the film.

"Young men, brothers from Brooklyn, search for meaning in this perfectly sincere and pro-human documentary tale. Laden with their own emotional scars inflicted by an abusive father, they travel to places where human suffering far exceeds their own—among the homeless in Manhattan, at a Peruvian home for lost children, with HIV/AIDS sufferers in Ghana, and in an African leper colony. Without a whiff of preachiness or sentimentality, this extraordinary film reveals the dignity and resilience of the human spirit, the joy of living, and the value of suffering."
