Another Typatone Bible quote

10/18/2018

 A couple years ago, I "composed" a brief piece on a website called Typatone, that converts text into music. I typed the first verse of the Gospel of John into it, and it came out sounding quite lovely. Today, I went ahead and did the same with the description of Jesus' crucifixion in the Gospel of Matthew (Matt. 27:50). The effect is really interesting. Enjoy.

Corybantic Christianity

Just couldn't resist reposting this blog post I just found on Father Foy's blog: Corybantic Christianity.  It's a brief post that shares a quote from G.K. Chesterton's book Heretics.

​Professor Huxley, in one of his clever phrases, called the Salvation Army “corybantic Christianity.” Huxley was the last and noblest of those Stoics who have never understood the Cross. If he had understood Christianity he would have known that there never has been, and never can be, any Christianity that is not corybantic (Heretics, Ch VI).
The above quote is from G.K. Chesterton’s book, Heretics.  The word corybantic means “wild; frenzied” and Chesterton seems to intend it in a complimentary way.
