recommended reading

dear friends,

i have been rather silent on the pope's death, but if you truly believe in the church's teachings death is never a sad thing, except for those left behind.

since graduate school has turned me into a footnoted person, i offer the following recommended reading:

actual paper book: "crossing the threshold of hope", recommended by a friend a couple of years ago. among the most important books i have ever read and good for non-catholics since it is written in q and a format.

internet: george weigel, ethics and public policy centre, this past summer i was a tertio millenio scholar, which translates to learned about the church's social teaching and toured important relgious cites and places the pope lived and worked. george weigel (official biographer and friend of the pope).
