Just another person with opinions. If only the world would (a) pray the Rosary, and (b) listen to me!
People seem to operate under the assumption that a popular mandate is needed for a war but this is wrong. If the elites agree amongst themselves, public opinion can and will be disregarded until it is used as an off-ramp to get out of a war.
A huge turd dropped from space.
Obama’s presidential library looks like…[FILL IN THE BLANK].
By this reasoning, der Führer is a greater saint than all 14 Holy Helpers combined.
The intense online vitriol against Francis is actually a sign of his holiness. Every great saint had his or her slanderers.
Next time you hear about someone being “brain dead,” consider Nicholas Coke. cbsnews.com/news/nickolas-…
There have been massive ethical breaches in many organ transplant cases under the Biden administration. It's been found out that at least 73 "brain dead" donors could still neurologically feel pain when their organs were being taken out. For example, their heart rate and blood…
The very existence of the “reverent Novus Ordo” concept is itself an indictment. Nobody talks about a “reverent Traditional Latin Mass.”
Their definition of "reverent novus ordo" is quite elastic. For a Traditional Catholic, that means, at the very least: ad orientem, no communion in hand, no eucharistic ministers other than a priest or deacon, communion always kneeling. There's your unicorn...

I wonder if Protestants will ever start using AI to interpret Scripture. It'd make sense, as the central tension within Protestantism seems to be the absence of a definite clarifying authority on the problem of Scriptural interpretation. In lieu of the Pope, Grok fills in.
I know as Catholics we’re supposed to hate contemporary worship music (I don’t if it’s good), but I wish there more overtly “Catholic” contemporary worship artists. Not for mass, just for private enjoyment.

You mean like the revolutionaries of Vatican II did?
It is the height of arrogance to think that you just came up with a better idea for the Church than a practice based on ~2000 years of saints, bishops & theologians.
If true, you should be able to cite some pre-Vatican-II authorities in support.
Catholic Zionism is a legitimate and defensible position to take. The Church rejects replacement theology, and believes that salvation is extended to Jewish people, even those who do not explicitly believe in Jesus as the Messiah.
More: how many sinners about to stand before God in judgment would give everything they have to buy one more minute of life?
Hard to understand euthanasia defenders. If I could have had one more day holding my mother's hand, even in the hospital, I would give all I have for that. If only. So many years, and I still think that. Rest in peace, mom.
Suicide actually needs to be called self murder. Too many people think murder is OK as long as you’re only doing it to yourself.
Everyone upset by yesterday can do one very simple thing to turn the tide. Refuse to say "Assisted Dying". Always say "Assisted Suicide."
That's hundreds of dollars in tats right there.
In a country as rich as the United States, we should be able to ensure nobody is lacking the ability to get sufficient food for them & their kids.
"Woe to mankind...if God's Holy Commandment 'Thou shalt not kill,' ...proclaimed on Mount Sinai amidst thunder and lightning...inscribed in the conscience of mankind from the very beginning, is not only broken, but if this transgression is actually...permitted to go unpunished."
Looking for a patron saint on a dark day like today? Look no further than Bl. Clemens August Von Galen, the "Lion of Münster" who led mass protests that forced the Nazi regime into an embarrassing climbdown over their Aktion T4 euthanasia programme! 🧵/1
Its name is Apostasy.
This has been a dark week for England Something deeply evil squats over my land and my people
GB needs to repent of her apostasy and return to the Catholic faith. Otherwise she will continue to be dominated by a government that wants her citizens dead and their souls in hell.
BREAKING: UK Parliament has voted to legalise the murder of the elderly and disabled through euthanasia. One of our country’s darkest days. You can legally oblige me to participate or refer all you wish. I would sooner rot in jail than help to kill my patients. RESIST.
Sorry, but this is deeply impious.
