Can we just say AMEN to this thread and let it be over with.

Dies irę! dies illa
Solvet sęclum in favilla
Dona eis requiem. Amen.

Love me some Latin.

I say, "Thank God for sororities that are based on making friends (aka sisters,) having fun, learning life skills and serving humanity." I want to know why ITE (IOH, ITH, IOE...IOU, I don't know) thinks it is so noble to disguise a bible study as a sorority when sororities are apparently evil. I could care less if they want to get together and discuss the bible....more power to them. But...I reserve the right to make fun of any and all people, whether they're Christian or not, if they are ignorant and deserve mockery! Thank you for any blessings in advance, but you're wasting your time.

Actually, what ladygreek wrote was the Mizpah poem (they print it on coins and those pendants that break apart for best friends or significant others).

What I wrote was from the Dies iræ part of the Requiem mass:

Dies iræ! dies illa
Solvet sæclum in favilla

Day of wrath and terror looming!
Heaven and earth to ash consuming,


And then I skipped to the end (I didn't see any reason to type all 17 verses):

dona eis requiem. Amen.
grant it rest. Amen.

Awww, AlphaFrog - now everyone knows!
BTW - I thought it was the perfect way to end the thread . . .

I didn't think anyone would appreciate walking around reciting Dies irę, thinking they were reciting the Mizpah poem.

I suppose La crimosa or Pie Jesu could have worked as well.

Oh I was not going to be walking about town reciting it, but thanks for clarification.

Oh I wasn't translating what AF wrote. I was just giving my own benediction to this thread as it closes.
