  1 Corinthians 5:9-13 I wrote you in my letter not to associate with immoral people, not at all referring to the immoral of this world or the greedy and robbers or idolaters; for you would then have to leave the world.

How can you say to your brother, 'Let me remove that splinter from your eye,' while the wooden beam is in your eye? You hypocrite, remove the wooden beam from your eye first; then you will see clearly to remove the splinter from your brother's eye." GUILTY!  Yes, me, I am guilty! I learned a new word.  Vituperative . I was watching an interview, published a year ago, conducted by Matt Fraad of  Pints with Aquinas . He was interviewing the two authors of the book “ Calming the Storm ”; written by Father Gerald Murray and Diane Montagna. Have you read it? (My wife has. It wasn’t readily available on Kindle so I have yet to read it.) It’s an interesting format where...
