Up from the rancho, straight into heresy
It can be hard to get used to how much Garay talks about money in church, one loyal parishioner, Billy Gonzales, told me one recent Sunday on the steps out front. Back in Mexico, Gonzales’s pastor talked only about “Jesus and heaven and being good.” But Garay talks about [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=arturovasquez.wordpress.com&blog=2894911&post=4673&subd=arturovasquez&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Esta mañana
Hay en el aire la increíble fragancia de las rosas del paraíso.
En la margen del Éufrates
Adán descubre la frescura del agua.
Una lluvia de oro cae del cielo;
Es el amor de Zeus.
Salta del mar un pez

With friends like these&#8230;
Ordinarily, I don&#8217;t read Protestant blogs, especially those of the &#8220;Catholic friendly&#8221; type. So places like the Internet Monk rarely see my virtual shadow graze their screen full of pixels. One post on Josh S.&#8217; blog did link to a post on this other blog, and since I have of late thought [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=arturovasquez.wordpress.com&blog=2894911&post=4692&subd=arturovasquez&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

From a useful website:
Little is known about the reclusive Kenny Hill, a bricklayer by trade, born around 1950. In 1988, he settled on some property on the bayou in Chauvin (pronounced show-van), Louisiana—population 3,400. Hill pitched a tent as his home and, over time, built a small rustic home that demonstrated an interesting use of [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=arturovasquez.wordpress.com&blog=2894911&post=4636&subd=arturovasquez&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
