Grace, Light, and Peace

From the One Who was, Who Is, and Who Is to Come:

Grace, Light, and Peace be with you all.



Please feel free to leave me a message. I will generally respond to comments I believe are emergent on your talk page, while I may respond to casual commmentary here. However, I keep talk pages I edit on my watchlist for several days, so if you prefer, we can continue a discussion there.

I appreciate hearing from individuals who have found mistakes (spelling, etc.) in my posts; these turn up all to often, as I tend to type very fast and not catch spelling mistakes my edits. If you find an error, you may get an indulgence. (WikiSins only!)

As a theology professor and scholar of Roman Catholicism, I am happy to answer questions about the Church. Be warned that my answers to questions about the Church always reflect the Church's official position, but are often long!

It's important to remember: I'm not a Catholic, I'm a scholar of Catholicism.

Possible redirect problem

I noticed this user has taken numerous (apparent) legitimate articles and seemingly needlessly redirected them to other relevant articles. Could you take a look at this please? Thanks. NickBush24 07:33, August 22, 2005 (UTC)

Hmmm...It looks odd to me, but I don't know enough about the subject to make a call. I've brought it up on AN/I and I defer to those with far more experience in these matters than I. -- Essjay · Talk 01:58, August 23, 2005 (UTC)

Monobook.js

Hi S.j. i've found the screenshot of your monobook.js and i appreciate it, after translating many things into my language (italian), i have a trouble. In the italian wiki the label "edit" is translated as modifica. Using your monobook this label is now edit and i would like to rename it into italian. But i can't find the right string nor something that can help me...thank you so much for you attention and excuse me for my bad english but i'm italian! :P Helios89 13:13, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

I responded (in English, unfortunately) on your talk page on IT. If you have any trouble with it, let me know, and I'll get someone to translate! -- Essjay · Talk 01:58, August 23, 2005 (UTC)

Our conversation

Essjay, I'm sure it's very possible (even probable) that you've simply been too busy to devote time to our conversation on theology, and I don't mean to push you into writing if that's the case. It's pursued at both our leisures, and I certainly appreciate your taking the time to do so! But since it's been a bit over a week since my reply, I decided that it was possible that you'd felt offended in some way by my remarks--silence is often my response when I feel that someone has made hurtful remarks. If you do feel that I was in any way out of line in what I said, I hope you'll let me know--I in no way intended any offense, and would be glad to explain (and retract and apologize for, if necessary) any remarks which you may have felt were out of line. I hold you in high respect, and any differences I point to in our discussion are not at all intended to make you feel I'm denouncing or disapproving. I hope your summer is winding up well. Best regards, Jwrosenzweig 20:43, 22 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I responded on your talk page, but for the benefit of those who might run across this, no, I'm not offended/angry at all; I've just been busy! I'll be back to it in the next couple of days, I swear! -- Essjay · Talk 01:58, August 23, 2005 (UTC)

Red

user:Redwolf24 ahhhhhhhhhh. Howabout1 Talk to me! 02:04, August 23, 2005 (UTC)

P.S. I am checking my computer for deamons.

Now why'd you have to leave right when Red did. Now I'll have to get a life. :( Howabout1 Talk to me! 03:02, August 23, 2005 (UTC)

Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What page is it? Howabout1 Talk to me! 03:44, August 23, 2005 (UTC)

Joy at you not leaving, and wondering what happened that made you leave. Howabout1 Talk to me! 04:04, August 23, 2005 (UTC)

Oh. I think the quote from you that I neglected to add to my user page sums it up. "...the epidemic of foul mood floating around the wiki..." I've been thinking about winding down my presence here, but I couldn't leave. The only thing that could is asking to be blocked. Howabout1 Talk to me! 04:16, August 23, 2005 (UTC)

So take a few days off, spend time with Mia, then spend a few days not really doing stuff, but being here. Howabout1 Talk to me! 04:19, August 23, 2005 (UTC)

Well, G'night. I don't know what time it is where you are. But it's night here, so I'm not going to be on wiki. Howabout1 Talk to me! 04:23, August 23, 2005 (UTC)

re stress

I sent you an email, too. Is there anything I can do to help? -- Rick Block (talk) 04:27, August 23, 2005 (UTC)

I saw it and wrote you back. As I told Howabout, it's a lot of things at once. I'm sure all will be better soon. -- Essjay · Talk 04:37, August 23, 2005 (UTC)

Number of the Beast

File:Essjay 666.gif

...He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name.

This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number. His number is 666. Acetic Acid 05:24, August 23, 2005 (UTC)
