TIA,

The commentary on how to judge a man by his appearance you recently posted by the great Cornelius a Lapide [click here] was great.

I never saw these quotes by St. Ambrose, St. Augustine, the Venerable Bede and others before, but they will be good ammunition in the cultural fight. Clearly, we should judge a person not only by the way they look and dress, but how they walk and laugh! These quotes will not please the liberal catholics, that is for sure.

Thanks for posting these valuable truly "forgotten" truths.

In Jesus and Mary,

     B.F.

Hello TIA,

Have you sent a copy of the quotes by Cornelius a Lapide to Karl Keating? I wonder how he would respond to them. It seems to me they make it pretty hard to defend the way the general youth at World Youth Days look and act.
