Gosh, you guys are all so friendly! Thanks for all the "welcome" messages!
And a special thanks to the person or persons with that tagline from Augustine to the effect that "If you think you understand it, it isn't God". I hadn't heard that quote before, but I managed to get hold of the text it came from (Serm. 117, on John 1:1-3) and am happily reading it now!

And you're reading it in Latin, right?  I think that quote's from Marq's profile. |

(Actually I'd have claimed Benedict but then I know he'd go off and do something silly to himself once he heard I had a crush on him...and that's not smart) |

Yep, you'd probably have to go pray up a storm, or something, to get him to cease and desist! As for Gregory, I must admit I have Book II of his Dialogi lying around, but I sort of stalled out about 10% into it. Which is odd because it isn't that difficult a read. Must get back to it once I'm through with that sermon of Augustine's... |

SOLESMES?!?! ), I want to translate the blurb in Latin at the front of my Antiphonale. Just because PS did I mention the bit about SOLESMES? Hehehehehe  |

I would so love to do a course in chant, but I already have something lined up for the summer that's going to take up all my available vacation time! Maybe next year... |

I'm not curious ! (I'll just deny it) I don't think I was wearing a mantilla when I met you. But don't worry...usually if I'm wearing a mantilla I've got other clothes on too |
