Tally Marx Posted April 30, 2011 Posted April 30, 2011 I haven't seen Princess Bride in years... So, not knowing what you mean, I'll just say that Franciscans are awe.some!!!!
dominicansoul Posted April 30, 2011 Posted April 30, 2011 in a battle of wits?? you can combine the two orders and still won't match the wit of the Dominicans!!!

[/quote] Haha! This was actually my thought, too.... I don't think wit is precisely the charism of either the Carmelites or the Franciscans. Now, if the two orders had a "Love God unto Folly" contest, let's say matching St. Therese the Little Flower against St Francis.... in a spontaneous, live poem/ canticle composing competition.... that might be interesting. I'd wager money -- I mean a donation to the winning order -- on St Therese, but I'd be conservative Edited April 30, 2011 by JenDeMaria

Amppax Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 Well it will obviously be which ever order knows to never fight a land war in Russia, or knows not to battle a Sicilian in a contest over death!
MithLuin Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 To the death! Or....to the pain? Honestly, though, how do you compare St. Bonaventure and St. John of the Cross? St. Francis and St. Therese?

Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Well what kind of Franciscan are you talking about? Cappucine, CFR, OFM, etc etc? There are sooo many. There charism seems to be schism.
