Whoever's Afraid of Labor...

...should really fear the first 3 weeks. Yikes!

On My "To Read" List

Father Euteneuer's latest Human Life International email newsletter is about a book that seems to be popping up everywhere recently: Brian Gail's Fatherless. It's a novel that "takes on the pervasive moral issues of our day... contraception, adultery, pornography, demonic influence and more. This book provides a realistic and up-close look at what happens to a culture that is left spiritually 'Fatherless'." The novel is endorsed by Dr. Janet Smith, Fr. Euteneuer, and the late Fr. Richard John Neuheus. I usually shy away from modern fiction in general, but especially pieces that are purposely religion driven (that slightly weird section of Barnes & Noble that's a subset of the Christian shelves, anyone?). They tend to be cheesy, awkward, and fairly boring. If Fr. Neuheus liked Fatherless, though, I am more than eager to get a copy.
