Today is the second day of school. it was great to have all the kids back in the building yesterday. It will be a challenging year as we begin our building project. The rectory will be moved on Monday or Tuesday of next week.
We have a Catholic School because all of creation refers back to the creator. When we examine a scientiific problem or when we read literature we are attemtping with our intelligence to grasp reality. All things receive their being from God. If we recognize this connection between the world and God then we will be able to more fully penetrate and understand the world around us.
The person of faith is accused of escaping from reality. It is precisely the belief in God that makes the person of faith take the world seriously. God created everything with a plan and an order. If there is no creator and the universe is a random accident of chance then there is no order, there is no purpose to reality.
Science is the natural response of the intellect being infused with faith, the knowledge of the Creator.
