From an FB post, I got to discover that the Catholic Faith –the most basic foundation of it– is summarized most concisely in a document called Solemni hac Liturgia (Credo of the People of God) [1968]. It expounded the basic Apostle’s Creed, the Niceno-Constantinopolitan Creed and the Athanasian Creed. This one provides the core belief […]
If religion is a programming language, Christianity is a class. The Filipino culture has come to a point that it derives from this class. The Catholic Church in the Philippines is therefore an instance of that class. The Christian Faith is an inclusive kind of religion in a sense that it can be included or […]
While working on my lectures online, I stumbled upon this website regarding the possibility of aliens (relative to us). Aliens are human-like creatures deemed to have intelligence (same level as ours or higher) or the potential to have them (in case not *yet*, at least believed to have the capability of attaining them).

Today we celebrate an historical event when God the Son Incarnate Jesus Christ created the Eucharist. When God said, “Do this …” there was the first Mass. From that point on, Christ is to be present sacramentally through the visible signs of the Bread and Wine. It is the New Creation. Interestingly, our consecrated priests […]
Today is a busy day. But a moment to glimpse the way Christ — the Lord — views the world and a quick immersion on the life of Christ will help us, with grace, to be like him more and more. Quick Post. No pics. Today is Tuesday of the 4th week of Lent. Jesus […]
The distinction of a man from a woman has many implications scientifically. The biological basis for sexuality in human organism is so basic that all boils down to the presence or absence of the so-called sex-determining region Y (SRY) protein in one’s DNA. But there’s much more, especially when one wishes to be serious with […]
Roman Catholics celebrate the Feast of the Chair of St. Peter every 22 February. The celebration marks a day in the year for a more unified prayer for the unity of all Christians at the head of the Seat of Peter. The Seat of Peter (Office of Peter, Cathedra of Petros, Chair of Peter) is the […]
