Each person finds joy in making the most of their relational abilities, realizing they contribute to the common good and finding recognition as a unique and dignified person, within a community of encounters that multiply and expand the spirit. Without joy there is no renewal; without interiority there is no liberation; without encounter there is no politics; without the other there is no justice. #ApostolicJourney #Angola
@MTMehan@ThorningMichael Much of Presidential history has not contained people who served for two terms and then retired into the sunset. Who's to say Washington wouldn't have been relevant after his term... he declined in health and died! Go read about Theodore Roosevelt! Go read about Taft!
Twenty years ago we invaded Iraq. The war killed many innocent Iraqis and Americans. It destroyed the oldest Christian populations in the world. It cost over $1 trillion, and turned Iraq into a satellite of Iran. It was an unforced disaster, and I pray that we learn its lessons.
