"Those who intend marriage and are already engaged to each other have an excuse for showing each other the ordinary signs of affection [kissing and embracing], but they should use their privilege with due caution and Christian prudence."

The permissibility of kissing follows quite naturally from the principle of the triplex delectatio. Sensible, venereal, and affective pleasure are formally disparate, even though they have a certain material concurrence.
Pleasure is specified by its formal object, and no inference follows from material concurrence to formal identity. Nor is the will involved in the cause sufficient to establish venereal consent where the appetite terminates in the pleasure of honest affection. The inchoatio remota coniugii should not be confounded with the inchoatio proxima copulae.
So neither material concomitance nor remote ordination suffices for venereal specification. The contrary inference confounds the disposition with its terminus and the sensible substrate with the formal object of delight.

La cantante japonesa milet compartió un sentido homenaje cantando ‘Chiisana Te no Hira’, el tema de cierre de ‘Clannad’, dedicado al escritor y compositor Jun Maeda tras revelarse su diagnóstico de cáncer de garganta y su decisión de pasar a cuidados paliativos.
Junto a la grabación, la artista confesó lo difícil que fue interpretar la pieza por la enorme carga emocional de la noticia, dedicándole unas palabras de aliento al creativo para recordarle que su música es una parte imborrable de su vida y que sigue rezando por él.

"The just live by faith. You are the living temple of God. Visit this interior sanctuary often, and see that the lamps— that is, faith, hope, and charity — are burning."

On the Spirit and the letter 52 is one of the greatest things ever written.
"Do we then by grace make void free will? God forbid! Nay, rather we establish free will... by free will the love of righteousness, by love of righteousness the accomplishment of the law."

Jun Maeda (the creative mind behind Clannad, Charlotte, Angel Beats, Heaven Burns Red, and much more) is currently hospitalized after being diagnosed with pharyngeal cancer
Instead of pursuing active treatment, he plans to pursue palliative care in order to conserve his strength to devote himself to his creative work as "he felt there was little time remaining in which he would be able to continue creating"
[W]ithin the limits of probability, benign opinions are given concerning these matters, which for those who are either spontaneously inclined toward future acts or who feel themselves to be without desire, are necessary for the most part...
