Rest in Peace, Bob Newhart (94).
Best deadpan comedian I ever saw, with that comic delay in his bit of a stutter. He was one of the good guys in Hollywood. Kept his Catholic faith; didn't do the sleaze; didn't have to, because he had brains.
Best one-sided telephone routines...
"You might wonder how people can deliberately turn away from a thing that they believe not to exist. But God is in intimate relationship even with those who reject him. Like the spouse in a sacramental marriage, God is unavoidable, or avoidable only by creating a void"
Hail, holy Light, offspring of Heaven first-born,
Or of th'Eternal coeternal Beam
May I express Thee unblamed? Since God is light,
And never but in unapproached light
Dwelt from eternity; dwelt then in Thee,
Bright Effluence of bright Essence increate.
Metaphysics, ontology...
The French #press has covered this affair but hasn’t dared to tackle head-on the question of the origin of the people making the threats and insults. Why are these kinds of #attacks happening in Saint-Denis?
