TUESDAY QUOTE OF THE WEEK CCC

FINDING TRUTH WHEREVER IT MAY BE FOUND:  "Let’s be clear: the work of science has nothing whatever to do with consensus. Consensus is the business of politics. Science, on the contrary, requires only one investigator who happens to be right, which means that he or she has results that are verifiable by reference to the real world.

"In science consensus is irrelevant. What is relevant is reproducible results. The greatest scientists in history are great precisely because they broke with the consensus. There is no such thing as consensus science. If it’s consensus, it isn’t science. If it’s science, it isn’t consensus. Period."

Michael Crichton

 

IN OTHER NEWS:

 

Once again Frank sent in something that has nothing to do with this website but is so cool you need to see it.  If there is an architect out there (Mr. Krause??) who can explain this to me I would be very thankful.  See video here.  Which leads me to a point that is in keeping with this site:  If you build something cool, it will attract people.  If you build schlock, it makes your mission that much more difficult.    People are willing to go see a STAIRCASE IN A BUILDING!  Now if we would continue to build our churches like that . . .

Ahhhh!  The above article is COMPLETELY FALSE!  (Simba so dissappointed.)  Here is a link that shows that it is all a hoax.  Sorry folks.

 

From the Diocese of Cleveland Enewsletter:  This may be important to some of you out there:  "Northeast Ohioan Edward Martin, the head of the National Catholic Committee on Scouting said the Boy Scouts' vote in May to admit homosexual youth into their ranks is "not in conflict with Catholic teaching," something by which "we should be encouraged."  Read more here.

 

From the same source:  "Did you know, the U.S. Catholic Bishops referred to this week's Supreme Court decisions on Marriage as a "Tragic Day for Marriage and Our Nation?"  Unfortunately with the death of diocesan papers and poor media coverage how would you know?  Here is a link to the article.

 

Mark sent this three minute video in:  Thanks
