In response to: "Neda Agha-Soltan video - truth or manipulation?" 139 days old
by bosniakus [Visitor]

dude, it is a manipulation...THEY always do that, this is psychological war against Iran. And Neda could not have a proper funeral according to islamic traditions because she was a christian(proof:http://islambosna.ba/index.php/aktuelno/sejfudinova-hronika/4711-slika-i-prilika-o-nedi-agha-soltan). and she wasn't even demonstrating... more…

may i offer a suggestion.

next time you owe a fine, for parking or tax or anything like that, heres is what you should do...

send an EMPTY envelope to whomever it is you owe the money to. send it recorded delivery. whoever receives it will sign for it, before it is opened.

then there you have it, more…

by curryinboots [Member]

Never been to Glastonbury. I wish that I had though. I just love wearing my wellies and am very envious when I see all these guys walking round in their wellies and having so much fun in the mud.
I wear my wellies everyday when I go taking our dog for a walk on the beach. She loves going in the water and so do I.

Hi, I am an Italian learner in beginning level. I found a free word of the day widget is very useful for me to build my basic Italian vocabulary (http://www.transparent.com/wotd/today/italian.htm), which can be embedded on any site easily. I can remember by heart one single word per day by reading it, hearing it and seeing it used in a real sentenc more…

In response to: "Oh Italy... now you are having a catholic eg medieval moment?" 531 days old
by DominicGee [Member]

True enough, but as for 'inventing' notions, that is the whole idea behind the Catholic faith. The reformation was a rejection of Church tradition and a faith based on 'Scriptura Solaris'. The Church was based upon what Jesus said to Simon Peter: "I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church..." setting up a Church base more…

by The_Italian_job [Member]

True, one of the nicer features of the Catholic Church is the decorative and ornamental style of their churches and all the pomp and ritual that goes with the service (no wonder all the movies like "The Omen" to "The Da-Vinci code" depict Catholic Church traditions with their millenia-old ritals and secretisms rather than focus on Prespitarian chur more…

by DominicGee [Member]

I think the strategy that the Catholic Church has adopted has been to be more hard-line in their teaching. That is not to say that they wrong etc etc, but this is the best way to deal with the 'new-age'. Instead of trying to become part of main stream culture, the Church has attempted to separate itself from it, so that it is distinct and differe more…

Well, that is exactly my point - all christian faiths normally say "God is Love", except for the Catholic Church when it comes to marriage, the it is more "God is penetration" (sorry for the blunt language).

And besides, even if marriage is "only" about bringing up children, what about adoption or (to go a bit further) thought the guy more…

by DominicGee [Member]

I perfectly understand your point of view on this matter - but do you not think that the Bishop is avoiding marrying two people when the marriage will not be consumated? If it is not consumated, it is ground for an annulment, as you say, and a priest is not meant to marry people where he knows there is a problem. A civil ceremony should suffice o more…

Greetings! I found your website while googling International House Celta and TEFL stuff. I am sad you are possibly ruling Rome out, but I also understand the appeal for the northern (more civilized?) cities. Anyhoo, I am also in the "which cert is better conundrum: Celta or Trinity?" Boh! I am enjoying your blog! Good luck on your Italy endeavors : more…
