  • Sola Ecclesia: a Rejoinder to Philip Blosser by Steve Hays
    Sola Ecclesia: A Rejoinder to Philip Blosser By Steve Hays Late last year, I wrote a response to an attack on sola Scriptura by Philip Blosser. In early January, he wrote a reply. 1 Due to other demands on my time, I haven’t had the time to respond until now. So let’s run through his reply, hitting the highlights. I’ll quote myself in red. I’ll quote him in blue. The color-coded quotes are for context. If you’d rather cut to the chase, the new stuff is in black print. The other reason I did not respond to Mathison was that I had lost some of my initial interest in these sorts of arguments. It often happens, I think, that arguments of this kind serve a purpose on the journey of those en route to the Catholic Church, but subsequent to their conversion these concerns are supplanted by others as they become habituated to their new environs within the Church. Up to a point, this makes perfect sense. But, by the same token, it also makes perfect sense for Blosser to take stock of his original reasons for converting to Catholicism in light of his subsequent experience. He knows more about it now than he did then. So the original reasons we had for a decision we made may not be the same reasons we have 10 or 20 years later. Before plunging into the thick of things, I’d simply note that, as is so often the case, Blosser is a layman who comes to the defense of the Magisterium.

  • Love and Danger in the Old West
    The stories in this book are about women who witnessed some of the most historic events in the old west. These characters include Calamity Jane, Big Nose Kate, Josephine Earp, and others. The lives they led were affected by the old west legends they married. These women found love but lived with anxiety and fear because of the dangerous world in which they lived. Some have been obscured by history while others became historic figures.

Veterans of the fighting were returning home to pick up where they left off prior to four years of savage fighting. Of course, many of those who left home to join the conflict would not return. Others would return home with missing limbs and other wounds leaving them permanently disabled. Luckily, for the two subjects of this chapter, James Butler Hickok and Davis Tutt, they arrived in Springfield, Missouri after the war having both survived the war and escaped injury.
