A blog from Quebec dealing with Earth, eco-theology, social justice and Latin America. Saturday, 10 May 2014. Dan Berrigan celebrates 93 years. Today is Dan Berrigan’s 93rd birthday. He is a magnificent human being in. A photo taken later in his life - he was arrested many times. Every respect and, for many, a model of engaged faith. A Jesuit, a poet, an activist, he represented for many the opposition to US wars and violence. And Dick Gregory (my other hero! But, what I remember most of all is the time ...

A blog from Quebec dealing with Earth, eco-theology, social justice and Latin America. Friday, 21 March 2014. I have just finished reading a novel of William Faulkner – no small feat. His prose is difficult though masterful. I had always wanted to read more of him, recognized him for the superb writer he was and, at this point, had a bit of time to do so. Absalom, Absalom! Was a chance but fortuitous choice. I happened to be at hand at the library! I really did not know what to expect. There are similari...

A blog from Quebec dealing with Earth, eco-theology, social justice and Latin America. Thursday, 18 June 2015. Pope Francis on Climate Change. Https:/ robertscribbler.wordpress.com. There is a precedent. In 1963, Pope John XXIII, after convening the Second Vatican Council, published an encyclical called Pacem in terris. That aside, it is a ground-breaking document in several respects and stands as a dramatic call to action for decision-makers all over the world. That includes each of us, every day. Last ...

A blog from Quebec dealing with Earth, eco-theology, social justice and Latin America. Sunday, 19 July 2015. Harper Lee: Set the Watchman. Https:/ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go Set a Watchman. This is a book that is making waves, the subject of many reviews. I enjoyed it enormously. White society lives on in the South and it includes the powerful issue of racism but also of the unique identity and sovereignty of the South. The novel suggests that diversity in dialogue is the way forward. I deeply beli...CJS o...

There is a deep mystery present in every creature on the planet that holds, supports and sustains its existence. That mystery extends back to the very beginning of the universe and holds true to its ultimate end. Our covenant with that mystery gives us reasons to hope that, as it began and.

A blog from Quebec dealing with Earth, eco-theology, social justice and Latin America. Sunday, 29 March 2015. The King and the Beggar. The story below is very old. I heard it many years ago in Peru. However, it is much older than that. When the carriage arrived beside him it stopped abruptly and no-one less than the King himself descended from the carriage. Striding over to the poor, shaking beggar, he addressed him: “Could you perhaps be so kind as to give me something? After going in and placing his ca...
