One of the many highlights of this year's Rimini meeting was the encounter with John Waters reflecting on the theme of the 2013 meeting "The Human Person: a State of Emergency."
Just a word about the Rimini gathering. The youtube clip at this link gives a great introduction and a taste of the experience. This year over 800.000 people were a part of the event. It is difficult to say much more...the experience cannot be communicated in words.
I have heard John Waters speak a few times in recent years. His keynote address to the meeting is worth the hour and a bit of listening time. While the written text is available, in this video clip John sets the pace, the emphases and the progression of his reflection - and therefore (for those not able to hear him in person), it is worth setting the time to savour this encounter with reality.
