St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Newman Center at UNLV Review

Jesus Christ spoke in parables and figures of speech.
(Legwh-)
What does this Proto-Indo-European root meaning have in common with the pride and vanity of the Pharisees and Sadducees and not taking God seriously by using any verse of the Bible in a funny or joking way to make people laugh or chuckle?

Leaven (from *PIE root legwh- "not heavy, having little weight")
(v.) figurative sense "work upon by invisible or powerful influence" (Matt 16:6) watch out and beware of the leaven of the pharisees and Sadducees. "excite fermentation in."
(n.) "Substance added to dough to produce fermentation," "sourdough" in Vulgar Latin it had a literal sense of "means of lifting, something that raises." It is from levare "to raise" . Figurative use is from late 14th century" chiefly with allusions to certain passages of the gospels.

Levity (from *PIE root legwh- "not heavy, having little weight")
(n.) "want of seriousness, frivolity, lacking moral gravity, to make light of, unimportance, unchased, lightness, light-mindedness, light in weight" is also closely connected with to Mock, Jest, Joke, folly, lack of wisdom!!!

We had a wonderful time performing for the feaste! Thank you to Father Daniel for having us!

This group was wonderful! Fr. Dan was delightful and welcoming. If you are looking for a great church experience, give these folks a visit.

Father Daniel helped my son when he was dying. I am so grateful. He came to the icu and then other families saw him he helped their loves ones and them. Great location easy to find. Lots of young people here.

I work hours where I cannot go to mass with the times at my church. So I began a new journey, trying to find mass after 6pm on Sunday is practically impossible. I was informed by a friend of the Newman center by a fellow Knight. But I put off going for months because of the location. ( 15 minutes from my job mind you). Well months of being less and less spiritual, I broke down and finally went. I was totally renewed after attending mass, so do not let the small atmosphere ruin it for you. The spirit here is on Gods high! The message was just what I'm looking for. A community of worship, praising Gods glory. Go,go,go.

Small cosy church. Where I first learnt that Americans don't kneel.

I gave a huge donation and wasn't recognized. I meant to fix that after I read it and I posted it I realized how silly it sounded I really did cuz that's not how I meant it it's not I just thought I was doing something good so I'm sorry for that and I do apologize God bless
