The Apostle Wittgenstein


 
“What we cannot speak we must pass over in silence."

Speaking of God trivializes the Holy.
This is obvious, and being aware of it, we do it in order to teach children to attempt to understand a complex state of their being. However, we forget that our speech is a children's text, and we wish to preserve our "Mother Goose" approach to the Holy as our very own catechism.

Very good.
People that work with the Jesuits are impressed by their Morality in this world.
