Sunday Snippets--A Catholic Carnival

Here is this week's Sunday Snippets from the Well.

Last Sunday I shared with you all some links I found through the previous Sunday Snippets.

On the political side, we talked about the editor of Newsweek saying that President Obama is "sort of like God" and about David Letterman's tasteless joke about Sarah Palin and her daughter.

On Thursday I posted a Thomas Merton quote and talked about finding the true self through silence and today there is a post about the important feast day, Corpus Christi--the Body and Blood of Christ.

Thank you to This, That and the Other Thing for hosting Sunday Snippets.

You've had a busy week of posting. I hope you enjoyed your special Mass today.

I did. It was the first time I'd been in a Eucharistic procession in this area. It was very rewarding. DH commented that it seemed "like Spain"--his only contact w/ traditional expressions of Catholicism in the past. I felt very "free" afterwards.

Dymphna's favorite quotes


"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark
