Blogito ergo sum! Actually, as N.T. Wright averred, "'Amor, ergo sum:' I am loved, therefore I am." Among other things, I am a Roman Catholic deacon. This is a public cyberspace in which I seek to foster Christian discipleship in the late modern milieu in the diakonia of koinonia and in the recognition that "the Eucharist is the only place of resistance to annihilation of the human subject."

"Now it's all or nothing..."
It's been a musical week here at Καθολικός διάκονος. Nonetheless, a Friday traditio is still very much in order. I deliberately chose not to feature the 2003 digitally re-mastered version of Simple Minds' Alive and Kicking, due in no small part to the fact that embedding has been disabled. This is more authentic, anyway (he wrote in a half-hearted attempt to be content). Alive and Kicking is the second traditio of our '80s retrospective summer.
What you gonna do when things go wrong?
What you gonna do when it all cracks up?
What you gonna do when the Love burns down?
What you gonna do when the flames go up?
Who is gonna come and turn the tide?
What's it gonna take to make a dream survive?
Who's got the touch to calm the storm inside?
Who's gonna save you?
