Westerns are the greatest American storytelling vehicle and they all but died after Unforgiven was made in 92, minus a few gems. I'll never understand it. https://t.co/tuETELHHbK
His Holiness Pope Leo XIV offering the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass at the High Altar of St. Peterโs Basilica on the Solemnity of Pentecost this morning.
As far as 80s celebrity music videos go, keep your Eddie Murphy trash pal. Nothing beats Don Johnson's Kino masterpiece "Heartbeat". Dweezil Zappa shredding on the song, John Nicolella (MV) directing, Paul Shaffer editing....Pure 80s gold.
The boomer generation will stop at nothing until our country is fully raped and destroyed.
A steady diet of Fox News, Facebook memes, and megachurch sermons brought us here.
Truly a disgrace
Something tells me we're not going to have this kind of energy for America's 250th.
You'd think by now I'd be seeing "250" everywhere but I honestly do not see it anywhere.
I mean this is a quarter-millennium here. You'd think we'd be exceedingly hyped already?
Here's a little-known fact about Archbishop Fulton Sheen, who will be beatified on September 24, 2026 during the pontificate of Pope Leo XIV: Venerable Fulton Sheen was actuallyโฆ biritual.
While he was ordained and served as a bishop in the Roman Catholic Church (Latin Rite), he received special canonical faculties from Pope Pius XII to also celebrate the Divine Liturgy in the Byzantine Rite.
Fulton Sheen embraced the Byzantine Rite largely as a way to show spiritual closeness and solidarity with Eastern Christians, many of whom were facing severe persecution by communist regimes behind the Iron Curtain during the Cold War. In 1955, he celebrated a Hierarchical Byzantine Divine Liturgy for a crowd estimated at over 100,000 people at a major pilgrimage in Uniontown, Pennsylvania. This was a landmark event: it was the first public Byzantine Liturgy sung in English and the first ever celebrated by a Latin Rite bishop with special Vatican permission. He also provided commentary for the Byzantine Divine Liturgy during the Melkite National Convention in 1958, which was recorded and broadcast on national television. By doing so, he introduced the rich spiritual treasury of the Eastern Catholic Churches to millions of Western Catholics who might otherwise never have experienced it.
Through his biritual faculties, Archbishop Sheen acted as a highly visible bridge between the Eastern and Western traditions of the Catholic Church.
