Jesuit Father Bill Sneck takes an in-depth look into Ignatian Spirituality. Ignatian Spirituality insists that God is present in our world and active in our lives. It is a pathway to deeper prayer, good decisions guided by keen discernment, and an active life of service to others. St. Ignatius of Loyola founded the Society of Jesus in 1540 after years of his own spiritual discernment and discoveries. Ultimately discernment is praying for the grace to act on a decision that has been spiritually conceived.

So I think it's safe to say that it's been a crazy few days.

It's a bit to take in. But now I get to fight back, and if I'm going to have any chance of bringing my old bosses down, I'll need a few more hands - preferably ones as skilled as mine. Now might be a good time to see what my old teammates are up to.

This text includes a list of banned books up to 1966. This is a fascinating glimpse into Catholic apologetics about how they justified censorsing books that are now considered classics.
