Woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic, and political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth. #ApostolicJourney#Cameroon https://t.co/bKteFZ3iWE
What a disgusting comment, and it's hardly been the only one along these lines.
First off, the question was from a person seemingly to my left, about my interfaith marriage. I'm a public figure, and people are curious, and I wasn't going to avoid the question.
Second, my Christian faith tells me the Gospel is true and is good for human beings. My wife--as I said at the TPUSA--is the most amazing blessing I have in my life. She herself encouraged me to reengage with my faith many years ago. She is not a Christian and has no plans to convert, but like many people in an interfaith marriage--or any interfaith relationship--I hope she may one day see things as I do. Regardless, I'll continue to love and support her and talk to her about faith and life and everything else, because she's my wife.
Third, posts like this wreak of anti-Christian bigotry. Yes, Christians have beliefs. And yes, those beliefs have many consequences, one of which is that we want to share them with other people. That is a completely normal thing, and anyone who's telling you otherwise has an agenda.
A group of Carmelite monks deep in the mountains of Wyoming is doing something few would dare.
They’re building a towering Gothic monastery… with CNC machines.
Yes. An ancient monastic order is using cutting-edge tech to create a structure that looks like it could have risen in the Middle Ages.
Twenty years ago, they came to Meeteetse with $400 and a dream no one believed in. Experts told them their monastery would cost $80 million. It was impossible.
So they did what monks have done for centuries: they adapted.
They taught themselves how to carve stone with diamond-tipped CNC machines. No formal training. No engineering background. Just faith, grit, and prayer.
Block by block, some weighing over 4,000 pounds, they’re shaping angels, gargoyles, and ribbed arches worthy of a medieval cathedral.
Their goal: a chapel that could stand for a thousand years. A masterpiece hidden in the Wyoming wilderness.
Some say it’s madness.
Others say it’s a miracle in slow motion.
What do you call it?
“So you made $160 MILLION in your NBA career?”
“Yes, Dave”
“And you are now facing a federal indictment for rigging a game to make $200k…”
“That’s correct, Dave”
I for one am shocked that NBA employees are gambling. How did they get sucked into that kind of activity?
I really hope they address this on the FanDuel Pregame show sponsored by bet365, right before the big game at DraftKings arena
Somewhere in New England tonight, there’s an NEPSAC MVP plaque that reads:
2008: George Springer
2009: Corey Schneider
One of us has made $170M and is a World Series MVP. The other just searched “fun easy pumpkin carving ideas” and needs to foam roll. Life is a highway.
