Even so, I am glad someone in this world is keeping alive the logical beauty of the latin language. Even if the church vernacular has been bastardized from the living language of the consuls and the caesars.
Actually, there was something about his style that reminded me of SMA. So it wouldn't surprise me to learn that WFB was an afficianado of G K Chesterton and an unabashed admirer of beauty for its own sake.
I already miss the SMA, and I shall miss WFB as well.
In paradisum deducant te Angeli; in tuo adventu suscipiant te martyres, et perducant te in civitatem sanctam Ierusalem. Chorus angelorum te suscipiat... æternam habeas requiem.
Just saying, Arnold.

Commenting on Dean's World is a privilege, not a right. Dean is your host, you are his guest, and you should behave in that fashion. Dean is not your babysitter, nor is he your punching bag. Please remember this. In general, you are free to disagree with anyone on any subject you wish, but abusive behavior will not be tolerated.
Of course we all lose our tempers now and then. Dean freely admits to being imperfect in this regard, which is why regulars to this establishment will generally be cut more slack than people who we don't know very well.
Still: behave like an adult, or go find somewhere else to play. Thanks.
