What Does The Prayer Really Say?

I am gratified to find that some other folks are now thinking through the Successor of Peter’s wardrobe when contributing to the blogosphere.

For example, over at the catty Whispers in the Loggia a piece was published (finally) about why Pope Benedict might have chosen to wear the stuff he wears: apparently, the Pope needs to be different from other bishops in the world. A very good insight…

Pillar of Truth is up and running. It looks as if Dave might be a sensible fellow, in that he also comments on the sport God loves the most. He seems to be a former Lutheran and convert to Holy Church (as is the undersigned… er… oversigned).

In the online Forum I run I created a baseball section there and it is used a little by the participants. It must be their love for goodness, beauty and truth, despite the problems faced by The Game right now. I am extra happy that Pillar of Truth is offering notes about the team of my native place. Good luck to this new blog!
