St. Thomas the Great

St. Thomas the Great

Few historical personages have deserved the title the Great. Alexander received it for his military conquests and the expansion of the Macedonian Empire. Charlemagne, also called the father of Europe, was great because a new civilization was born of him and his Holy Roman-Germanic Empire. Others tried to so denominate …

The Great Return

The Great Return

According to St. Thomas Aquinas, the Creator made the universe according to the exitus-reditus scheme: creatures left God’s hands (exitus) in order to return to Him (reditus).

The “Chinese River”

The “Chinese River”

Among various metaphors that Dr. Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira used to describe the journey of the human being on this earth, the one he called “Chinese river” holds a special place of prominence.

An old proverb rightly states that “weak men create hard times.” If this is so, the problems of the current age can be understood… Scenes that promote the culture of victimhood, such as reporters crying on live television or parents afraid to reprimand their children, would have been unthinkable until …

Peter, Who Are You?

Peter, Who Are You?

On one occasion, in Caesarea Philippi, Jesus asked His disciples: “Who do men say that the Son of Man is?” (Mt 16:13). Some thought John the Baptist; others Elijah, Jeremiah or one of the prophets. However, Simon Peter, without hesitation and in the name of all, declared: “You are the …

Justice Delays, But Never Fails

Justice Delays, But Never Fails

Justice is one of the divine attributes most often mentioned in Sacred Scripture. It is already evident in the first sin of Adam and Eve, through the maximum penalty applied by the Creator: the loss of grace and Paradise. Clemency was millennia in coming, but the reward was worth the …

“For to such belongs the Kingdom of Heaven”

“For to such belongs the Kingdom of Heaven”

The Incarnation of the Word is one of the greatest mysteries of our Faith, even more so when considered in the light of Christmas. In fact, how can the divine infinitude be confined within a child’s body? There is, however, a profound symbolism in God having become a Child. Firstly, …

The Immortality of the Counter-Revolution

The Immortality of the Counter-Revolution

St. Thomas Aquinas teaches that “to govern is to lead in a suitable way to the proper end” (De regno ad regem Cypri. L.I, c.15). All communities – families, cities and nations – have their own idiosyncrasies and, therefore, their own means of achieving the common good. All, however, must …

Way, Detour and Shortcut

Way, Detour and Shortcut

Perhaps the Saviour’s most frequent exhortation was: “Follow Me.” He used it not only to call the Apostles – like Matthew at the tax office – but also to invite the rich young man to embark on a new path. In the first case, the publican rose immediately, abandoned his …
