The Beautiful Game, by Albert W. Vogt III
What does it mean to be beautiful? In Western culture, that answer is usually quite literally skin deep. More broadly, we attribute beauty to anything that we perceive with our eyes as being physically attractive. God sees things differently. Indeed, He sees infinitely more than we do. The last couple sentences of 1 Samuel 16:7…
Jackass: Best and Last, by Cameron J. Czaja
Hi, my name is Cameron J. Czaja, and welcome to The Legionnaire. Believe it or not, that’s the second time I’ve done an intro like that on The Legionnaire, as the first time was during the review for Jackass Forever (2022). Now, I will be reviewing the latest and last Jackass film in the franchise,…
Clayface, by Cameron J. Czaja

There is nothing wrong with the proverbial gears within gears, but if it is unclear what they are turning, then what is the point? There are those who level similar accusations at…
Flora and Son, by Albert W. Vogt III
Learning to play an instrument is somewhat analogous to practicing the Faith. Like Christianity and, by extension, a relationship with God, one is never going to know the intimacy it takes to produce anything unless one shows up on a consistent basis. With Catholicism, this means prayer and regular participation in the sacraments. This is…
