Featured Term (selected at random):
Strong personal appeal or magnetism that is possessed by some people and that resembles the supernatural charisms known to Christian revelation. It is more often used in the form of "charismatic" to describe such persons. They can influence others almost without trying and their ability to do so seems to partake of the miraculous. (Etym. Greek charisma, favor, gift.)
AND -- this charisma can be used for good or for evil, in my opinion.

Catholic Word of the Day Ping!
Please send me a FReepmail if you would like to be on the Catholic Word of the Day Ping List.
So was Obama’s charisma the reason that Rush started calling him messianic?
Actually he used other words which offend me since there is only ONE Messiah, Jesus Christ.
Here are a few words I would like too see used by some Catholic lawyers as they take the ACLU before the SCOTUS.
