I just wanted to share my joy this Easter with all. Wishing you all a glorious Easter season and something for us to share and experience through this year.

Christos Rei! Christ is the King!

Hey Cronos!!! Lovely article you've written, too bad this Easter I was at work all the time, didn't really have time to focus on the subject of our Lords ressurection, at least I managed to go back home for a while and go for a mass with my Mom (same way we do every year) ;)
Wesołych Świąt to you and your wife!

I’ve been in Our Lady of Victory (I think that’s the name of the church) where the Infant of Prague is housed. Oh, how beautiful.

At the sermon on Sunday, the priest indicated how most non-believers are happy to accept the "broad principles of Christianity" -- how no one really objects to "Love your neighbor" or "the meek shall inherit the earth", how the beatitudes are A-ok for all.

Not to throw a shoe in your thread, but I think this idea misses an important point. Most non-believers (and many believers) are happy to nod and "Uh-huh" at the Great Commandment or the Beatitudes, but there's a great difference between that and believing these are principles one must practice in one's own life.
