Every successful HS coach needs a strong right hand man that will be loyal to him & never undermine him. If you look at some of the best programs, they have loyal, smart Number 2 guys. WHO DONT WANT TO BETRAY THE HC. Too many assistant coaches with personal agendas

NEWS: The Washington Nationals have let go of a community relations executive, sources told The Athletic on Friday, three days after a conservative group posted a hidden camera conversation in which the employee discussed internal deliberations about everything from an alleged social media ban on a Catholic pitcher, relationships with defense contractors, and the organization’s efforts to placate President Trump.

THE VATICAN HAD A “DOOMSDAY ARCHIVE” FOR 400 YEARS
And most Catholics have never heard of it.

Beneath the Vatican lies over 50 miles of shelves containing ancient manuscripts, trial records, forbidden letters, papal decrees, and documents so old that some predate entire nations.

It is called the Vatican Apostolic Archive.

For centuries, people called it the “Secret Archive.”

That word terrified the world.

Many believed the Church was hiding the truth:
Lost Gospels.
Proof against Christianity.
Prophecies of the end times.
Evidence about the Antichrist.
Secrets about Fatima.
Even documents connected to exorcisms and demonic possessions.

Then historians were finally allowed limited access.

And what they found shocked them.

The archives contain the actual trial records of Galileo.
The letter written by Mary Queen of Scots before her execution.
Documents from the Knights Templar trials.
Ancient correspondence from saints, kings, emperors, and popes.

One document is over 1,200 years old.

Another is a 60 meter scroll.

The Church preserved them through wars, invasions, plagues, fires, and collapsing empires.

Why?

Because Catholics believed truth must survive even when civilizations do not.

And here is the part most people miss:

The Vatican did not destroy history.
It protected it.

In fact, many ancient texts known today only survived because monks copied them by hand in monasteries while Europe burned in chaos.

Without the Church, entire parts of human history could have vanished forever.

That includes theology.
Philosophy.
Science.
Classical literature.

Even atheist historians admit medieval monasteries preserved massive portions of Western civilization.

Yet the internet still repeats:
“The Church hid knowledge.”

But if the Church truly wanted to erase history…

Why preserve documents that contain scandals, corrupt bishops, failed popes, wars, and internal conflicts?

Why allow scholars to study them at all?

Because truth does not fear investigation.

And that changes everything.

2 Thessalonians 2:15 says:
“Stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught.”

The Church was preserving more than paper.

It was preserving memory.

Civilizations collapse when memory dies.

This is why Catholics built libraries before universities existed.
Why monks copied books before printing presses existed.
Why cathedrals stored records when kingdoms could not even preserve their own histories.

The world calls it obsession.

The Church called it stewardship.

And maybe the greatest hidden truth is this:

For 2,000 years, Christianity has survived every empire that tried to bury it.

Roman emperors failed.
Revolutionaries failed.
Dictators failed.
Persecution failed.

And the archives are still there.

Waiting.

What do you think is the most mysterious document hidden in the Vatican archives?

The Astros have achieved their fifth combined no-hitter in franchise history with Tatsuya Imai, Steven Okert and Alimber Santa getting it done on the mound 😤

No other team in the MLB has more than two combined no-hitters and now Houston has five!

[Sarah Langs @SlangsOnSports]

Houston now has 18 no-hitters, including PS

That’s the most no-hitters thrown by any club since the Astros’ first season in 1962

The next most by any club in that span is 13, by the Dodgers

[StatMuse @statmuse]

There is only one player this season in the American League with:

No country in the current economic and military situation that Cuba is in would ever preemptively strike a super power like the US. This is just propaganda to build a case for an invasion of Cuba.
