Entry: Sake and the Latin Mass Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/sake_and_the_latin_mass#2273 Post contents: As a white girl who lived in China--and will be leaving in a month to live in Taiwan for my junior year of college--I must take issue with Mr. Ball's characterization of Chinese wine as "shit". (And do we have to be vulgar? Please, there are ladies reading! I hate when Catholic men swear--don't you have any respect for my ears???) I absolutely adore good plum wine. It's very much like sherry or port. As for baijiu, the so-called "white alcohol", it's basically a grain alcohol--moonshine--and the point is to get drunk, not to taste it! I was very interested to read about the Japanese Christians. As someone studying the Chinese language with the idea of using it for evangelization, St. Francis Xavier is my patron, and I ask for his prayers all the time! Sent at: 2008 08 29
