how hard is it gonna be to keep a straight face? (hahahaha) no, really, because catholics are CRAZY. if they didn't have so much historical clout, it'd be an official declaration. check this out:

"The interest in angels (like the interest in dinosaurs) has really increased in the last few years. Unfortunately, some web sites and books contain very little factual information about angels. This is unfortunate, since the facts about angels are more interesting than the “fantasized” accounts any day! ....
How do we know this angel we meet in verse 7 is actually God? We have two sources of evidence. First, if you read the language, it sounds like God. After all, a normal (or angelic) person would not say “I will multiply your descendants exceedingly, so that they shall not be counted for multitude” (verse 10). ....
The Bible refers to another type of angel, the seraphim, in Isaiah chapter 6. The description reveals that seraphim have six wings, a face, feet, hands, can fly and speak, and can be stationed at God’s throne. That still leaves us without knowing what the seraphim’s normal responsibilities are or what one looks like. (With the description we have, seraphim could physically resemble humans with six wings, cherubim with one face and two “extra” wings, or something else.) ....

less fun crazy behaviour evidenced at :
they're freaky people, man... all that self-mortification, the transubstantiation, the fairies, sprites, angels, demons - this kind of stuff is part of the daily way they understand the world ... if you're depressed, it's not about serotonin, or about a (reasonable) reaction to the state of the planet, it's that "When we are hurt, wounded, traumatized... we are vulnerable. Evil spirits attack our emotions, and our pain is amplified! When we are healed... we are less vulnerable. Evil spirits have less to attack and are forced to depart. Then they attack someone else!" (from a website entitled "catholic spiritual warfare")...
(i came across these at work, doing work-related stuff, believe it or not... anyway)
please learn what you can, and explain it to the rest of us. (http://www.catholic.org/saints/fun_facts_arch.php?image=/saints/ff_images/10.jpg) ()
1. Adorei as ilustrações do seu namorado! Great talent there, definetely. I loved his "ink+computer" works, and the watercolours ones. I´m managing to learn how to use watercolours properly... And it´s very interesting mixing medias the way he does, using ink and computer in the same work :)
2. I´ll scan something and send it to you. But as I said before: be kind, I´m an amateur, I never tooked any art classes. I´m starting to working with watercolours, I´ll scan it when it´s done :)
3. E o Rilke é o máximo mesmo, um dos melhores poetas contemporâneos na minha opinião. Tenho dois livros dele em edição bilingüe com alemão, muito bom - claro, que só entendo a parte traduzida :) Uma das pessoas que traduziram o trabalho dele pro português foi um poeta paraense, Paulo Plínio ... alguma coisa, não sei corretamente o nome dele, vou verificar. Mas li que é uma das melhores traduções de Rilke pra português. Há vários livros e autores muito bons de literatura regional, se você gostar desse estilo, posso lhe enviar algum, sem problema, para você conhecer. Você gosta do Neil Gaiman?
