'My daughter has hundreds of books she can choose from, but there are two that are her favorites. One is a pocket sized Bible, and the other is the Sheep & Goat book.

Taphorn, Chancellor.

TMSC International Book Review: The Suicide of Altering the Faith in Liturgy, by Father Paul Kramer


  FATHER PAUL KRAMER is author of several articles and the soon-to-be-released book, The Suicide of Altering the Faith in the Liturgy. Father Kramer received his B.Ph, S.T.B. from the Angelicum in Rome and his Master of Divinity at Holy Apostles College in Connecticut.

By Tres Mali Scott

Christian Catholic or Christian Protestant?????

About seven years  ago an old co-worker and Masters Level classmate had a child in a Catholic Hospital. When I visited the hospital, I was very angry to see everyone on the walls looked Protestant.
Since High School I have been persecuted for my Catholic Faith. When people thought I was Protestant they persecuted me for believing in God. I received a book, Our Lady’s Book Service from the Fatima Center. One of the books for sale is:
This book acknowledges that Catholic Tradition has been challenged. My personal experience shows that it is not just a Catholic Church persecution, it is as the Holy Bible calls it, a “Church of God” persecution.
Catholic Traditions, beliefs, rituals, and Liturgy are no less important than other religious traditions, beliefs, rituals, and Liturgy.

TMSC International Book Review: Humanum Genus-Encyclical On Freemasonry, by Pope Leo XIII

As a Catholic it is difficult to see the Church talk in negative terms about Freemasonry. I am a member of The Order of the Eastern Star and Queen of the South. These organizations fall under the Masonic Order, a rite.
As Catholics we have the right to worship with any rite we choose. The book Humanum Genus-Encyclical On Freemasonry, by Pope Leo XIII emphasises that since 1738 many popes have condemned Freemasonry.
The organizations I deal with are community service based, “Charity”, and the purpose of the Charity is for widows and orphans.
Another book on the subject is Quo Graviora by Pope Leo XII.

TMSC International Book Review: About Black Priest, Desegregating The Alter

Desegregating the Altar: The Josephites and the Struggle for Black Priests, 1871-1960Desegregating The Alter The Josephites and the struggle for Black Priest 1871-1960, by Stephen J. Ochs.

Even the Church has experienced racism and formed organizations to heal and deal with racial issues. Read about the Josephites and the struggles that Black Priests have endured to understand that racism has also touched Religion.  The History of the Church and its growing into a truely "universal" belief system is not discussed much. Take time to understand the aspects of International racial issues, the Church is around the world.

TMSC International Book Review: God’s Final Witness by: Ronald Weinland

I was reading the book God’s Final Witness by Ronald Weinland, and he asked, “so what makes what I have to say in these two books any different from what others have had to say about the end time?” My answer to that is:
  • “The overthrow of the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom.”
  • Most say the end of the “World”, it does not sound as personal, I am an USA citizen, you are now talking about me. The world is huge.
Most other countries do not have tourism like the USA, the end-time could be everywhere and not here. Could we see if it was? Information is censored world wide. The USA has the freest of information access, and we still have to go to the Supreme Court for Freedom of speech, the press, and information. Most USA citizens live in their own little world.
Once I saw on the News that a bomb went off in Parliament, I got upset, we think of places like Parliament and Congress as “Safe Places”.
On page 88, Weinland (2006) defines standing from the Greek meaning “set”,  after reading that I experienced Angels, spirits, and ghosts helping individuals develop their sets or sects for psychic ability.
Ronald Weinland is a Prophet, considered one of the Highest Degrees of Psychic Paranormal Psychological (PNP) Abilities.

TMSC International Book Review: The Little Book of Common Sense Investing by John C. Bogle

The Little Book Big Profits Series has three books:
  1. The Little Book That Beats The Market,
  2. The Little Book of Value Investing, and
  3. The Little Book of Common Sense Investing.
The Little Book of Common Sense Investing has quotes through out the book that help you remember the concepts. One concept that is repeated throughout the book is:
For every winner, there must be a loser.
The book teaches index investing and a great concept put into a quote:
If I “could only explain things to enough people, carefully enough, thoroughly enough, thoughtfully enough-why, eventually everyone would see, and then everything would be fixed.”
The book also shows that these money making theories are not new. from Other People’s Money, by Louis D. Brandeis first published in 1914 to the formation of the first balanced index fund in 1990.
Investing can become fashion and fad, when real formulas are needed.
John C. Bogle the author is the Founder and former CEO of the Vanguard Mutual Fund Group.
