Q: What’s your favorite Bible verse?

Trump: I wouldn't want to get into it because to me that's very personal. You know, when I talk about the Bible it's very personal.

Q: Are you an Old Testament guy or a New Testament guy?

Trump: Uh, probably equal. think it’s just an incredible….the whole Bible is an incredible

Articles like this, and public positions taken by prominent Catholic voices like Reno's, cannot be dismissed as exceptions anymore.
US Catholicism is in a state of moral schism.

“In many respects, democratic socialism was and is close to Catholic social doctrine and has in any case made a remarkable contribution to the formation of a social consciousness.”  - Pope Benedict XVI.

First time flying in a while. Nerves are spiking. Plane had to be de-iced. Then our first takeoff was aborted on the runway because of an issue with the auto throttle. Now we’re sitting here while they fix it. Welcome back to the friendly skies.

America’s Dad @alroker saying “the weath” (like the Tok) on the @TODAYshow was the pick me up I needed this morning. I’ve already adopted the word. “Alexa, what’s the weath?” “Feeling under the weath.”

Might try its homophone too: “wheth or not?” #TheWeath #TheWheth

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

I would like that today we may together begin to build a culture of reconciliation. We must meet one another, heal our wounds, and forgive the wrongs we did and did not do, but whose effects we still carry. There are no enemies — only brothers and sisters. What we need are gestures and policies of reconciliation.

So Christians betray their own tradition when they call on each other to go to war with evil. Jesus doesn’t believe that’s necessary. All that’s necessary is to love your neighbor, and if enough people do that, then evil ultimately collapses in on itself. /5

[Brandon Ambrosino @BrandonAmbro]

I’m seeing a lot of people who very loudly proclaim their Christianity talk about how now is the time for good to fight evil. This betrays a massive misunderstanding of Jesus.

In the gospels, Jesus is portrayed as believing good can overcome evil without a fight. /1

[Brandon Ambrosino @BrandonAmbro]

In Christian philosophical terms, the reason goodness doesn’t have to fight evil is bc they’re not on the same terms. Per Augustine, evil does not succeed in being evil the way good succeeds in being good. /4

just a dream: a papal bull by Leo XIV, in English, condemning the Second Amendment and stuff like that

Trump doesn’t think he’ll make it to heaven.

I hope he’s right.

I wrote about it for @ChristianCent
