Friar, what about Catholic sex?

Father, is Olivia provoking lust on stage? - What religion is she and the other pop celebrities?

(Breaking in the Habit w/Father Casey Cole, OFM) Priest answers questions about sexual ethics

Religions overlap, but just because something came first doesn't mean that Catholicism stole it or appropriated it for self-serving reasons, like growing to encompass every part of the earth, says Casey Cole OFM.

What dominates US media, sex or violence?

What religion is Olivia Rodrigo (Beliefnet), the All-American Bitch?

Without Buddha I Could Not be a Christian

Without Buddha I Could Not be

Paul F. Knitter has 4.5 out of 5 stars after 447 ratings with this book. An honest, unflinching tale of re-finding one's faith, from one of the world's most famous theologians Without Buddha I Could Not Be a Christian narrates how esteemed theologian Paul F. Knitter overcame a crisis of faith by looking to Buddhism for inspiration. From prayer to how Christianity views life after death, Knitter argues that a Buddhist standpoint can encourage a more person-centered conception of Christianity, where individual religious experience comes first and liturgy and tradition second. Moving and revolutionary, this book will inspire Christians everywhere. More

CateBu: Catholic Buddhist | friars (Family Guy)

Crystal Quintero, Ashley Wells, Sheldon S., Pfc. Sandoval (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

Cook, Woman! - Bless you, Husband.

There are nontheist Buddhists, atheist Buddhists, JewBus, Zen freaks, Dalai Lama fans, Soka Gakkai cult chanters ("Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo"), and all kinds of Asians born into the Dharma, but what about Roman Catholics (suffocating in the patriarchy), can we be Buddhists?

Wisdom Quarterly surmises that most American Buddhists were born Catholic. (We're trying to coin the term CateBus, "Catholic emerging Buddhists," for Recovering Catholics hungry for the real thing -- direct experience of the Truth without temple priest go-betweens -- like psychonauts or shamans/samanas).

It's the world's largest religion, has issues with Protestants, and may just be the easiest Abrahamic faith to question and reject. It's preposterous. But Friar Fun is nice and restores are faith that not all Catholics are all bad. Our parents, some non-molesting priests, some non-apathetic hypocrites in the Vatican, even this pope seems pretty cool compared to the previous Nazi Pope.

Is Catholicism ("Universalism") a form of Christianity or its own religion?

Western interests in Burma contribute to the oppression of its people

(George Monbiot, Guardian, 10/02/07)

...Explaining his company's decision to pull out of the country, the CEO of Reebok noted that "it's impossible to conduct business in Burma without supporting this regime. In fact, the junta's core funding derives from foreign investment and trade."

As the junta either controls or takes a cut from most of the economy, and as almost half the tax foreign business generates is used to buy arms, any company working in Burma is helping to oppress the people.

The travel firms Asean Explorer and Pettitts, which take British tourists round the country in defiance of Aung San Suu Kyi's pleas, both refused to comment... Read more
