Catholic Carnival XLVIII: A Melting Pot of ideas

As always, the Catholic Carnival this week is excellent. From Emily Rose to blogger conferences and everything Catholic in between:

Our Word and Welcome To It presents The Triumph of the Cross. For some, it doesn't make any sense. How can the site of a defeat possibly represent a great triumph? Yet that is precisely what the Triumph of the Cross celebrates. For without Good Friday, one cannot have Easter Sunday. An empty Cross does not lead to an empty Tomb.

On the Other Foot teaches in Prayer Warriors. Protestants believe that prayers to saints are idolatrous, or at least wrong. In that case, who's answering those prayers?

Northwestern Winds explores The Exorcism of Emily Rose in Emily Rose. Not just a review of the new film, it looks at some of the questions the film raises about the problem of evil.

la nouvelle théologie explores the world in Reconnecting with Reality: An Interview with Caleb Stegall. Caleb Stegall is editor of The New Pantagruel, an online magazine with a radically new vision for humanity and the world—one that’s neither left nor right-wing, but rooted in ancient tradition, nature, and Christian revelation. I spoke to him about what’s wrong with the modern world—and what we should do about it.

Quenta Nârwenion explores the last judgement in From Faith and Prejudice and Other Unpublished Sermons. The post is a quote from Venerable John Henry Newman, C.O.

A Penitent Blogger enlightens us in Strategy. Penitens explores complex events and the plan of God.

Kicking over my Traces invites Catholic bloggers to GodBlogCon 2005, a conference for Christian Bloggers. Needless to say, KOMT is hoping not to be the only Roman Catholic blogger!

Salvific Design asks the hard questions about the Vatican’s plans to create a portal in The Vatican’s Portal Plans. It appears the Church is now rebuilding their sites - both public and private - using portal technology. But, there is a substantial difference between a portal type of site and a site that uses portal technology. This article discusses the differences and explains how the latter route may be fraught with problems.

Herb Ely examines reality in Religious “Ghosts” Hiding in Nuclear Strategy Stories. Are there "ghosts" in news stories - religious topics that hide between the lines? Read before you decide.

CowPi Journal reflects in In the Palm of His Hand. Isaiah 49:16 states, "See, upon the palms of my hands I have written your name."

My Domestic Church is back with a new child in A Mother’s Love. This inspiring post is about motherhood at the end of life. It asks women facing difficult pregnancy choices, to be the mother they were called to be, in the time they have.

Angry in the Great White North asks “why” in Ken Livingstone: Opens mouth, offends everyone, no news here. What did he do this time? He compared terrorist apologist Yusef al-Qaradawi with Pope John Paul XXIII, calling them "similar".

HMS Blog offers us an reflection in The Time of Generosity. He focuses on the challenge posed to us by Jesus’ parable of the workers in the vineyard from last Sunday's Mass readings.

Deo Omnis Gloria explains Why Christians Shouldn't Support the United Way. Can you say "Planned Parenthood"?

And this blogger offers Reverence for the Eucharist in Secular Literature. Any guesses to where this quote comes from?

Thanks for reading!

God bless,
Jay
