The Gospel today was from Mark:

“Render to Caesar what is Caesar, and to God what is God’s.”

The meditation in the Magnificat was from Saint Augustine and was magnificent. The Saint pondered as to how the world looks on a man to find the image of Caesar, while God looks on a man to find His image...

Think that was a coincidence, Friends?

Is there a citation as to which writing of St. Augustine's it is from? I'd love to read it. Thanks.

Regarding your tag line, isn't there a statue of V. Capodanno in Manhattan somewhere? I remember reading about it and wanted to go see it, but when I tried to search for it on Google, I didn't get any results in Manhattan.
