Countercultural Father

Saturday, 29 August 2015

Here is the next exciting selection from my old Keeping Your Kids Catholic series at the Catholic Dads wwwsite.

Lent

Matrimonial Accord (about Hamsters)

Red Nose Day

Challenging the TV Culture

Sacred Language

The usual apologies apply re the unseasonality of the post on Lent.

Ben Trovato: Secretive (eg my wife doesn't know I'm writing this blog) Mendacious (eg my name isn't really Ben Trovato - that comes from an Italian saying: Se non è vero, è molto ben trovato - if it's not true, it's well found (or made up, as we'd say.)) Superficial (I have an interest in almost everything, and can pass myself off as knowing a lot more than I do...) Self-deluding (my wife probably does know about this blog by now...) For the record, my kids aren't really called Antonia, Bernadette, Charlie and Dominique either... It would seem unfair to write about them under their true names, so ABCD seemed a good idea. My wife's not Anna either, but again the AB pattern seemed pleasing.
