I will always consider it the most vile misogyny to tell autistic young women that they are “born in the wrong body.”

Biggest problem with the 2020 census in particular was that, due to Covid, a LOT of people permanently relocated WHILE it was going on, so people who filled it out in January weren't living there by June.

The 2020 census was muffed "accidentally" costing the GOP 5-6 net seats. Fix that problem AND update state totals and the Ds are looking something possibly ugly.

I more run into, "Wait, a celibate woman shouldn't be experiencing that temptation," like I'm mismade somehow. I'd be fine with the "spiritual counseling" angle if priests weren't turning it into my existence being problematic to their personal beliefs about women.

[Fr. Thomas Petri OP @PetriOP]

One reason many Catholics no longer go to confession frequently is that the sacrament subtly drifted from “confession and absolution” toward “spiritual counseling.”

Most Catholics are willing to accuse themselves of sins briefly and regularly. Fewer are willing to enter into an extended personal conversation every few weeks.

The traditional confessional, the screen, brevity, clarity, and sacramental reserve all lowered the barrier to grace. The sacrament felt objective, medicinal, and accessible rather than emotionally burdensome.

Confession is not primarily therapy or spiritual direction. It is sacramental mercy.

IVF turns children into a product to be created, sold, and discarded - violating their basic human rights.

IVF is not merely one grave sin. It is a massive collection of multiple grave sins. Fighting against IVF may be the most important (and difficult) Pro-Life work of this century.

Over half that was covered by a state bailout.

The rest was from cutting pension investments, which will just balloon pension costs down the road.

I didn't like the Kavanaugh nomination because he struck me as a squish, (and he has proven such,) but as soon as he was made a martyr, I knew the actual merits of whether he would rule the way we hoped for had ceased to matter.

[Daniel Friedman @DanFriedman81]

Brett Kavanaugh, a man in his 50s, had been valedictorian of his high school, at Yale College and a star student at Yale Law, had clerked for the Supreme Court, had a top career as an appellate lawyer and federal judge and a pristine reputation, and then a random woman from the town he grew up in claimed he had groped her at a party 35 years earlier when they were in high school.

Kavanaugh didn’t try to argue that the incident was consensual. He didn’t claim he remembered things differently than she did. He immediately stated that he had never even met the accuser. Denying ever meeting the accuser is a much stronger claim than merely denying assaulting her, and much easier to refute. After Kavanaugh made this denial, Christine Blasey-Ford no longer had to prove he had sexually assaulted her to scuttle his nomination, she only had to prove that the two of them had attended a party together at which such an assault might have occurred.

She was unable to do so. She did not know whose house the alleged assault occurred at. None of the people she claimed attended the party corroborated any aspect of her account. Leland Keyser, a friend of Blasey-Ford’s, who the accuser claimed was at the alleged party, said she recalled no such event and had never met Kavanaugh.

Kavanaugh produced a detailed calendar he had kept during the summer Blasey-Ford alleged she was assaulted, which included his whereabouts of every weekend night and listing who he was with. Kavanaugh argued that he could alibi himself and provide witnesses for any night Blasey-Ford claimed she might have been at a party with him. Blasey-Ford responded that she did not know the date of her assault and was not entirely certain it even occurred that year. Instead of being seen as persuasive, Kavanaugh’s calendar was mocked in both mainstream and social media because the reason he kept it was for a drinking contest he was having with his friends.

Nearly a decade later, there is still not a single shred of proof or a single witness who will corroborate the claim that Brett Kavanaugh and Christine Blasey-Ford were ever in the same room before she testified at his confirmation hearing. Nonetheless, people like Nick Kristof still claim Kavanaugh was “credibly accused” of sexually assaulting this woman.

[Ave Crux Spes Unica @AveCruxSpesUn]

Fr. James Martin isn’t ‘building bridges’–he’s stacking the Synod deck. The two key testimonies pushing a pro-homosexuality ‘paradigm’ in the Vatican report came from his personal friends: one he blessed with his ‘husband’ (featured in the NYT), the other a same-sex couple he guided at Fátima. Both reject chastity (e.g., Courage ministry), call their unions a ‘gift from God,’ and claim Communion while unrepentant–directly opposing 2,000 years of Church teaching on marriage and sexuality. This isn’t listening to the Church; it’s curated advocacy undermining the Gospel.
Saint Peter Damian pray for us.
