Perceptio: Religion in America
http://arealliveone.blogspot.com/2015/05/religion-in-america.html
Gold is tried by fire. Thursday, May 14, 2015. The recent Pew survey. One can analyze the data from a variety of perspectives. Thankfully, the Pew Research Center allows you to drill down. Into the survey data. To some extent the numbers are predictable. The North Eastern US and West Coast have the lowest percentages, as do states with a known libertarian streak. The South and Midwest have a higher percentage of Christians. In all instances, the decline among 18-30 year olds is evident. As to the mainlin...

Perceptio: May 2015
http://arealliveone.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Gold is tried by fire. Saturday, May 30, 2015. Why do you sleep, my soul? Ψάλλε καὶ γρηγόρησον ἐπὶ τὴν γρηγόρησιν αὐτοῦ,. Ὅτι ἀγαθὸς ψαλμὸς τῷ θεῷ ἐξ ἀγαθῆς καρδίας. Psalms of Solomon 3:2. Nevertheless, we have glimpses. We have windows with which to gain a haunting view into the spectres of Christianity's past. This is one of those rare occasions when the original text of an obscure book from the formative history of the canon is relatively accessible. We are reasonably sure that such literature underli...

Perceptio: When Waves of Nostalgia Come Crashing Ashore
http://arealliveone.blogspot.com/2015/05/when-waves-of-nostalgia-come-crashing.html
Gold is tried by fire. Sunday, May 10, 2015. When Waves of Nostalgia Come Crashing Ashore. And at that moment, I must admit there was suddenly something familiar about the Pauline liturgy. Certainly by the time I had encountered the Latin text, it was window into another liturgical world. A Latin liturgy was indeed possible with the Pauline liturgy. The books existed, they were real, they were waiting. What remained was the will to attempt such a liturgy on a regular basis. May 14, 2015 at 11:29 AM.

Perceptio: December 2014
http://arealliveone.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Gold is tried by fire. Saturday, December 13, 2014. Gathering a Sense of the Lay of the Liturgical Land : The contemporary context. Forward: I present this as I wrote it. Unfinished and likely to never see any additional development. It is exceedingly difficult to continue writing on a topic I continue to care less and less about. The Pauline liturgy bears the mark of John Paul II. Benedict XVI never intended to displace the Pauline liturgy. Afterward: So there we end it. It does little good to conti...

Perceptio: August 2014
http://arealliveone.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Gold is tried by fire. Thursday, August 28, 2014. In a blinding bout of nerd rage. At one point in time, the Fantastic Four was one of the most respected comics in the history of the medium. Until that day, that fateful day, when, seemingly in 80s, the stories became lackluster and the title quickly degenerated into one of Marvel's fourth tier features. History and Stan Lee kept the title alive, but everyone knew the title was, overall, getting well past its peak. Now we have this. Monday, August 25, 2014.

Perceptio: Reflections on Orthodoxy
http://arealliveone.blogspot.com/2015/05/reflections-on-orthodoxy.html
Gold is tried by fire. Saturday, May 2, 2015. It was one year ago that I entered the Orthodox Church. To tackle the reasons behind this decision often proves an impossible task at this stage. This said, I notice more people contemplating the decision. I offer a few considerations. 1) Anything worth doing is worth doing slowly. In my case, the whole process was decade, from the moment of making intellectual investigation, up until three years of regularly attending Divine Liturgy. More often than not, you...

Perceptio: Western Rite Orthodoxy (pars secunda)
http://arealliveone.blogspot.com/2015/05/western-rite-orthodoxy-pars-secunda.html
Gold is tried by fire. Saturday, May 2, 2015. Western Rite Orthodoxy (pars secunda). If you are a member of the Antiochian Archdiocese of North America, you would have recently received the current issue of The Word. You may have noted an article by Fr. Kenneth DeVoise from the Department of Missions and Evangelism. 1) The mythical rite of St. Gregory. 2) The Tridentine Liturgy was the first adjustment of rite of St. Gregory in one thousand years. What evidence are we pointing towards for this? Okay, fai...
