    “Certainty is the great enemy of unity. Certainty is the deadly enemy of tolerance.

    Even Christ was not certain at the end. 'Eli Eli, lama sabachtani?' He cried out in His agony at the ninth hour on the cross. 'My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?'

    Our faith is a living thing precisely because it walks hand in hand with doubt. If there was only certainty, and if there was no doubt, there would be no mystery, and therefore no need for faith.” - Cardinal Thomas Lawrence

    I'll be with you if you're with me.

    I hadn't watched any trailers for this movie and my knowledge of the Transformers lore was limited, so I was concerned I might miss out on something. However, to my surprise, I thoroughly enjoyed "Transformers One."

    The animation was stunning, the comedy was good, and the script was great. I had no expectations, but I'm pleased that the movie turned out to be so enjoyable.

    Canoa: A Shameful Memory

    ★★★★★

    Cómo el título lo menciona, un hecho vergonzoso...

    Como alguien que ha crecido conviviendo con la violencia normalizada del país me parece impactante, triste y vergonzoso ver, que desde los acontecimientos en Canoa, nada ha cambiado en nuestra sociedad.

    El sentimiento de familiaridad de los hechos representado por Felipe Cazals son un duro recordatorio de que algunas cosas nunca cambian. Y que tal vez nunca cambien.
