Actually, I do believe my answer was quite simple: We'll cross that bridge when we get to it. That is, indeed, a simple answer. That the WIKI had existed for less than 72 hours and you demanded a thorough treatise on how we'd handle each and every situation seemed, to me, to be a bit over the top.

I concur.

Reminds me of Nicholson's line in As Good as it Gets...

"Some of us have great stories. Pretty stories, that take place at lakes, with boats and friends, and noodle salad. Just no one in this car. But a lot of people, that's their story. Good times, noodle salad. What makes it so hard is not that you had it bad, but that you're that pissed that so many others had it good."


BTW, my week was excellent.

Homosexuality is going to be the worst. I'm not going to touch it. I'm going with something relatively easy like Purgatory.

You going to mention Orthodox "Toll Houses" in your article?

A question concerning the CF wiki project. Are you going to have articles that discuss or define things like Atheism or Secular Humanism or Wicca, for example? If and when you have such a thing, it'll be interesting to read them.

Not in my first draft, as it will be based mainly on the research I did for a paper last spring where I did not include non-Catholic viewpoints.

Sadly, I have a feeling that before I can get to parallels in other traditions, I will have to fend off the Catholics who are mad that the understanding of Purgatory my article presents doesn't perfectly match the description presented in the Baltimore Catechism.
