Mindblown: a blog about philosophy.

  • Fric Still has 10 Toes

    Yep. All 10. Why is this even a question? Well, my right foot lost a skirmish with a running lawn mower (thereby necessitating my return of my Mensa membership card) last Sunday afternoon. At the energency room when the shoe finally came off, I counted to 5 on that foot and was much relieved. So…

  • Where’s Everyone At?

    OK… OK… I don’t know about the rest of the Maniacs, but my schedule has been crazy with 3 hours a day taken up by a drive to another city each day. Very draining physically and mentally. There are times I have wanted to blog, but couldn’t the synapses to fire between my brain and…

  • National Review has a 2 page blog article this week

    Blog Guide 2004, a 2 page chart of important blogs, is part of this week’s National Review. CM didn’t make the chart, but there’s always next year. Among those who did make the cut, Instapundit, Little Green Footballs, Michelle Malkin and Mark Steyn. In addition, the role of bloggers in Rathergate is discussed, including in…

  • Fric is Back!!!

    OK. I wasn’t really gone. Just been busy commuting to a contract job which is finally over. Been having trouble getting out of a mental funk and into a writing mode of late. However, if you haven’t already seen this, go to Jimmy Akin’s blog post on learning to read Latin by reading the Scriptures.…

  • Immigration

    Heard a show on Catholic Radio today while at work which really put forth some interesting points that I had not considered concerning immigration in this country and illegal immigrants. I had by no means even considered that out of the 8 million Illegal immigrants that are in this country now that most are Catholic.…

  • Sacrament of Reconciliation

    I must say that this is one of the greatest gifts given to us by Our Lord. How can we not show the proper joy at being forgiven by those that he appointed to carry on His word after he departed this world. I had a wonderful experience with Father Frank of the Franciscan order…

  • Catholic Maniacs Hat goes out in Indianapolis

    While at mass today at Methodist Hospital being celebrated by Fr. George Henninger noticed my CatholicManiacs logo on my polo and commented that he liked it so I had the chance to mention a little about our little site and gave him a Catholic Maniacs hat which he promptly put on at the Hospital. Hopefully…

  • Unusual Statement

    Was listening to Catholic radio the other night and heard a statement I found very interesting. As we know Martin Luther left the church to start Lutheranism but his mother remained true to the Catholic faith. When she was older and dying she wrote her son and asked him if she should become Lutheran. His…

  • Relationships in today’s world

    Just finished reading a couple of books by Joshua Harris named “I Kissed Dating Goodbye” and the followup “Boy Meets Girl”. In these books Joshua relates a lot of his own life and those of others he has known or been in contact with during his life. He is a Christian author though not catholic…

  • Few Things Of Note

    Item 1 Surprised our good Deacon or Fric hasn’t jumped over to put this up but the Deacon sent it by email to our little circle of bloggers so I will put up a bit of his email. WARNING this is very offensive and we could not believe it actually rated mentioning in a section…

Got any book recommendations?
