Now you went and quoted my old college professor, John Senior. He was a man who loved his Catholic faith and imparted it freely and lovingly to his many, many students, who in turn loved him and his teaching. The world, however, hated him and his colleagues and the singular Pearson Humanities Program at the University of Kansas. Despite the demise of the Pearson Program, Senior’s ideas live on in the two classic works he authored that you mentioned, and quoted here. Thank you so much!
Such wonderful articulation of why Western culture appeals so much - it was a flow through from the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass! Never connected the two before. Thank you for sharing that insight.

Wonderful article
I give all the credit John Senior! Definitely recommend reading his "The Death of Christian Culture" and "The Restoration of Christian Culture"
Thank you for the book recommendations. Will look them up.
An all time favorite of mine, and this is a great reflection on it.
Very good article! I have to ask: did you intentionally post this on St. Valentine's Day or was it a coincidence?
