Confessions of a Wayward Catholic is a hilarious yet insightful account of Frank Scoblete's years from kindergarten through grandparenthood as a confused, wayward, seemingly ever-sinning Catholic. Join Frank for a possibly hell-bound ride as he attempts to understand what God and religion are all about. Will Frank reach the pearly gates or be banished to eternal damnation? "I love my husband but there is stuff in this book that is disgraceful and should never have been written!" - Alene Scoblete, wife "Francis Scoblete has been a major sinner ever since he came to elementary school. I watched him closely at the dances." - Sister Jerome Blake, in charge of making sure girls and boys slow danced a foot apart. "I don't know why Jewish kids went to a Catholic school but I'm proud they did well in religion." - Chief Rabbi Sol Bernstein "I believe that you should love your neighbor as yourself. Luckily, Frank lives in another town and is not my neighbor." - Jesus Christ "Scoblete says I have no sense of humor. I will afflict him with boils and sores over his whole body, just like I did Job." - God "Frank Scoblete has been wayward for over six decades. He's my main man!" - Satan

Mike and Jean found one another in the most unorthodox way. Mike was a Roman Catholic priest, who struggled with his vow of chastity but wanted to remain in the priesthood. Jean was a widow, who was a Catholic intent on obeying the laws of the Church. After much soul searching between each other and discussion within their spiritual support group, they entered into a celibate love relationship publicly. Mike had his first sexual experience not very long after his ordination, when he got involved with a married woman, ten years older than himself. Once he experienced the ecstasy of being with a woman, there was no turning back, nor could he bring himself to give up his vocation. He continued to be sexually involved throughout his priesthood, that is, until he met Jean. He was looking for a way to be true to his vows, but also have his needs met to love and be loved. Jean was a strong, virtuous woman, who had always lived on the straight and narrow and seemed to be just the right companion for this intention. Mike Conley received a Master of Science in chemistry and a Master of Science in Administration from the University of Notre Dame. He was a Roman Catholic priest in the Congregation of Holy Cross for twenty-one years and has taught high school science in parochial and public schools. Jean Conley holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in human behavior and a Master of Theology in contemporary Christianity. She has had life coach training and authored a book on the subject of self-image, entitled Coach Your Way to a Great Self-Image. Mike and Jean reside in La Quinta, California, where they are administrators of an online university that offers ministerial and theological degrees. They have been married for over twenty years and continue to have a passionate love relationship.

A screenwriter and stand-up comic’s hilarious and profound account of his journey into Zen monkhood—featuring a foreword by Leonard Cohen Shozan Jack Haubner is the David Sedaris of Zen Buddhism: a brilliant humorist and analyst of human foibles, whose hilarity is informed by the profound insights that have dawned on him—as he's stumbled and fallen into spirituall practice. Raised in a truly strange family of Mel-Gibson-esque Catholic extremists, he went on to study philosophy (becoming very un-Catholic in the process) and to pursue a career as a screenwriter and stand-up comic in the clubs of L.A. How he went from life in the fast lane to life on the stationary meditation cushion is the subject of this laugh-out-loud funny account of his experiences. Whether he’s dealing with the pranks of a juvenile delinquent assistant in the monastery kitchen or experiencing profound compassion in the presence of his spiritual teacher, Haubner’s voice is one you'll be compelled to listen to. Not only because it’s highly entertaining, but because of its remarkable insight into the human condition.

With the help of the easy-to-master steps in this book, even a novice gambler can go from being a traditional blackjack player to a card counter--an advantage player with a true edge over the house. For a dozen years, Frank Scoblete was a devastating card-counter, consistently beating casinos in Las Vegas, Atlantic City, and Tunica, Mississippi and angering the casino bosses by knowing more about how to win money than almost anyone who ever challenged a casino. He employed sophisticated methods, including card-counting and little-known advantage-play techniques to turn the tables on the house. Now Frank, known as an icon of the gambling industry, shares with readers everything he knows about beating casinos at blackjack, including techniques for one, two, four, six, and eight deck games such as "end play," "the fat finger method," "card groupings," and several card counting systems that are easy to learn, but powerful and effective to play. "I Am a Card Counter" is an essential resource for any gambler looking to succeed at the blackjack table.

In Sexuality in the Confessional: A Sacrament Profaned, Stephen Haliczer places the current debate on sex, celibacy, and the Catholic Church in a historical context by drawing upon a wealth of actual case studies and trial evidence to document how, from 1530 to 1819, sexual transgression attended the heightened significance of the Sacrament of Penance. Attempting to reassert its moral and social control over the faithful, the Counter-Reformation Church underscored the importance of communion and confession. Priests were asked to be both exemplars of celibacy and "doctors of souls," and the Spanish Inquisition was there to punish transgressors. Haliczer relates the stories of these priests as well as their penitents, using the evidence left by Inquisition trials to vividly depict sexual misconduct, during and after confession, and the punishments wayward priests were forced to undergo. In the process, he sheds new light on the Church of the period, the repressed lives of priests, and the lives of their congregations; coming to a conclusion as startling as it is timely. Based on an exhaustive investigation of Inquisition cases involving soliciting confessors as well as numerous confessors' manuals and other works, Sexuality in the Confessional makes a significant contribution to the history of sexuality, women's history, and the sociology of religion.

Barry David guides the reader swiftly through these complex texts, explaining the historical context, as well as the various philosophical concepts; and considers its spiritual, ecclesial and theological significance.
