God is one illogical matrix…
Yes He Is! Trying to rationalize reality will sooner or later force one to conclude God is One Illogical Being. How is it that He loves us and yet He allows suffering, injustice and evil in the world?
Well, God might not be the only one! How can I explain my vocation to the priesthood as anything but illogical? After obtaining a Master’s degree in IT, and working for over six years in software 
Faith interfaces with science
The recent issue of 3-parent babies in the UK has again brought to the fore the Science-Faith debate. In this case, the Anglican and Catholic Churches have both voiced their concerns about this scientific possibility. But should they have spoken or should they have kept their place and refrain from interfering with what lies in the scientific sphere?
The process of 3-parent babies involves removing the genetic material from the donor’s…
Jew Tiegħi jew Xejn
Dak li għaddej bħalissa madwarna jfakkarni fid-diska ta’ John Lennon “Imagine”. F’din id-diska John Lennon jidentifika żewġ problemi fid-dinja: il-problema tal-idealiżmu reliġjuż u l-problema tal-kontroll. Fil-Lvant Nofsani u n-naħa ta’ fuq tal-Afrika, kif ukoll naraw l-effeti tagħha fl-Ewropa, hemm kunflitti 
mqajma minħabba l-idealiżmu reliġjuż. Filwaqt li fl-Ukrajna għandek kunflitt imqajjem minn kontroll fuq territorju. Għal dan John Lennon joffri soluzzjoni li kulħadd ikun l-istess u jaħseb l-istess, imma hija verament soluzzjoni?…
Pro-Life choice
L-għażla favur il-ħajja hi tema li spiss tiġi diskussa. Forsi għal ħafna minna, dan is-suġġet jibqa’ għaddej minn fuq rasna bla ma naħsbu xejn dwaru. Fil-ħajja magħġla tal-lum, ftit li xejn wieħed għandu ċans joqgħod jaħseb fuq il-ħajja. Iżda ħaġa tal-iskantament, diversi minna jeħduha qatta bla ħabel kontra 
dawk li jitkellmu favur l-abort jew l-ewtanasja. Dan għaliex ilkoll għandna għal qalbna l-valur tal-ħajja umana sa mit-tnissil tagħha u nagħrfu li hemm…
Għaliex?
Tiftaħ it-televixin jew il-gazzetta u tara jew taqra dwar qtil ’l hawn u gwerer ’l hemm, serq, sfruttar ta’ persuni, kriminalità u iktar. Iċempillek xi ħadd tal-familja jew tiltaqa’ ma’ xi ħadd li tafu u jirrakkuntalek fuq xi marda jew biċċa inkwiet oħra fil-familja. Tmur ix-xogħol u xi ħadd minn sħabek jiftaħ qalbu 
miegħek li għandu l-problemi mal-mara jew mar-raġel, jew forsi inkwetat bit-tfal minħabba xi vizzju jew relazzjoni li qiegħda…

Last Monday…
Last Monday morning, at around 6:45, four youths gathered in a small chapel at the Seminary. Together with their co-ordinator they contemplated and prayed the Magnificat. Then together they reflected upon a passage from the Scriptures through which they discerned God’s word for them for that particular day. Breakfast followed and then they cleaned their residential area. At around nine their Latin lecturer arrived. For the following hours they were introduced to the language, which is so central to…
