Athanasios Psilopoulos, a Greek marble mason who has been working on the restoration of the Parthenon since 1995, talked about what he discovered:
"When we took down the last column from the pronaos (the porch at the front of the temple), we found an ancient wooden dowel that had been there for 2.500 years. The fact that it hadn’t rotted away means that not even air was getting in. They took it and immediately put it in a vacuum chamber so it wouldn’t deteriorate. This is astonishing, two pieces of marble sealed so airtight that no air could enter. It’s incredible that you can join two marbles together and, after 2.500 years, find the wood inside still perfectly intact, and discover what was inside. I was stunned when I saw it. I said to myself, “We are nothing.” That’s what I said."
I hope that one day we get to see the Parthenon fully restored and complete, exactly as it was 2,500 years ago, with its original colors and the mythological representations of the ancient Greeks on the pediments.
Holy Father, I appreciate the balance you are trying to strike but lots of migrants are causing real damage to our communities by r*ping, stabbing, assaulting, murdering and beheading men, women and children.
Clarification is essential—many are not refugees.
We have received genuine refugees with open arms in the west for centuries. These migrants are not the refugees they claim to be.
Christ says it would be better for anyone to drown with a millstone around their necks if they were to make his little ones suffer.
The little ones are suffering.
When are we to acknowledge the obscenity of their criminality?
How can western civilisation survive this influx of hostile cultures that refuse to assimilate?
We are not unwelcoming people. We are trying to be good Christians. We are trying to be good citizens of a functional socitey but when we face weapons on our streets— we need the support of our leaders but it seems they are against us and for the perpetrators.
Ambiguity will not suffice.
Help us.
One of the greatest crimes of this century has been trying to convince people that cultures, religions and people are the same.
They are not the same. They never were and never will be.
If we don't reject this lie the consequences will be devastating for humanity.

🇯🇵 If Muslims are allowed to build mosques here on our holy sites then we must be given permission to build shinto shrines in Mecca.
We need some right next to the Kaaba. It's only fair.
A Polish soldier was acquitted of all charges for shooting at invaders crossing the border from Belarus.
The judge said the soldier was fulfilling his obligation to defend his border. There wasn’t a crime here.
That’s how we should be 🇵🇱
