The Essence Of Christendom

by Wiseman ~ July 2nd, 2003

From the February archives of Theresa’s Destination:Order here, the journal of an articulate sophmore attending Christendom College:

“The discussion had merged from classes to the spirit of Christendom. ‘Here’s the essence of Christendom,’ said Sabatino. ‘Do you know what that great Catholic queen–’ (aside to us: ‘Isabella? yeah–’) ‘ –queen Isabella once said were her three favorite things? No?’ The visitors did not; nor did we. Now all Sabatino’s energies come to the point–compelling voice, dramatic flair, blazing brown eyes in his dark Italian face, with one hand gripping the table and the other emphasizing the points. We stood spellbound. ‘She said ONE, a Pregnant Woman! –TWO, a Priest Celebrating Mass! –and THREE, a Thief Hanging at a Crossroads! –THAT is the Essence of Christendom!!’”
