  2 Corinthians 6:14 In-Context

  12 We are not withholding our affection from you, but you are withholding yours from us.

  13 As a fair exchange-I speak as to my children-open wide your hearts also.

  14 Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?

  15 What harmony is there between Christ and BelialGreek "Beliar" , a variant of "Belial" ? Or what does a believer have in common with an unbeliever?

  16 What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will live with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be my people."Lev. 26:12; Jer. 32:38; Ezek. 37:27

Benedict XVI: Giving of Talent and Resources in Crisis Economy
Pope Benedict XVI delivered inspiring remarks at the European Year of Volunteering (EYV) summit held in Rome this past Nov. 10-11. He explained why gratuitous giving of personal talent and resources is so important in restoring a healthy vocational perspective to everyday business. As Benedict knows all too well, a culture of Christian charitable giving is not at its height in Ol’ Europe, where the modern Welfare State and Keynesian economics have played such a dominant role the past 70...

Churchill The young pilots and crews that took to the skies to defend democracy and liberate a continent are among the mitted and courageous to ever serve this country.

Occupy Wall St. Embraces The Hollow Men
Acton Research Fellow and Director of Media Michael Miller warned of the dangers of over-managed capitalism.Washington’s foolhardy manipulation of the housing market brought our economy to its knees in 2008, but it seemed the gut-wrenching panic hadn’t had taught us anything. The recovery tactics weren’t fundamentally any different from financial policy in the mid-2000s, but the establishment couldn’t conceive of doing things any differently. Said Miller: In The Wealth of Nations, Adam Smith warned, “People of the same trade seldom...
Confusion and Lockdown over Vatican’s Financial Note
The Secretary of State was not pleased.I couldn’t believe my ears. But today I can. Sandro Magister, one of Rome’s most veteran and credible vaticanistas, confirmed this afternoon what I had heard – and feared – nearly two weeks ago (See his Nov. 10 editorial “Too Much Confusion. Bertone Puts the Curia Under Lock and Key” ): The Pontifical Council’s controversial Note released two weeks ago “Towards Reforming the International Financial and Monetary Systems in the Context of Global Public...
Distributism’s Fixed, False Beliefs
Picking up ment thread from this post. pauldanon says: “Because distributism is people-centred, things like medicine would be a priority. There’d need to be infrastructure for that, but nothing like the grotesque infrastructure we presently have for shipping frivolous imported goods around the country.” I know it’s futile to point out obvious things to a distributist. The fixed, false beliefs undergirding distributism are impervious to reason and experience. But let me try one more time, perhaps for the benefit of...
