“When pleasure and pain, and love and hate, are rightly implanted in the yet unconscious soul, and after the attainment of reason are discovered to be in harmony with her, this harmony of the soul is virtue, and the preparatory stage, anticipating reason, I call education.” Plato

@InnaVernikov @Osint613 Why are you, an elected official within the United States, supporting a foreign nation sabotaging U.S. foreign policy?

@bowtiedbrazil Our ancestors just called this Christian charity. But in our modern world it’s manipulation because people don’t look for the good in others unless they deserve it.

@FischerKing64 America has been run by oil barons, slaveowners, and mercantilists for the majority of our history. This used to be ok because most Americans could live off the grid. Now, almost everyone has to live on the economic and techno plantation. The 4th American Republic is Feudal

@ashemup @GreeneMan6 Feminism isn’t winning. It won. It’s now in the process of decline, however, because it’s failing every woman who wants to be happy, and its theories were shown, empirically, to be wrong.

@_rod_lander_ @CaioCruz02 @watamotemanga @BeSaintly This is deep theological waters, but the Old Covenant is not revoked, it’s fulfilled by Jesus; but also, the Mosaic Law doesn’t save, Jesus does.

@catholic_comedy @TRHLofficial Sed contra: uber offered a cheaper alternative to taxis, but due to shareholder greed, they cut corners, increased fees, introduced hidden fees, and they became worse than taxis. This is ok because it’s a nonessential service, but not so if it was essential like railroads

@Joeinblack And that is a religion without expiation. At best, the guilt can only be redirected to perpetual revolution or further destruction.

Why are Millennials so bad at art/music? Our artsy types haven't produced any iconic works. The works they produced were derivative and cliche. Many of our artsy types went into politics and government where they have no business working. What is the best explanation for this?

@FredSimonTLM @holysmoke Gen X seems to be getting passed over, but anecdotally, they don't seem to want these positions. We're seeing a transfer of power, in some cases reluctantly, from Boomers to Millennials. This is not isolated to the Church either. That's change in itself.

@HowlingBones2 @Babygravy9 The Dead Kennedys were my favorite band as a teen. Plastic Surgery Disasters could have been the COVID soundtrack. Then, old man Jello did pro face mask videos supported by CDC data. Pathetic.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Humanity, created by God in all its grandeur, is today facing a pivotal choice: either to construct a new Tower of Babel or to build the city in which God and humanity dwell together. In Jesus Christ, this humanity in its grandeur becomes the Way, the Truth and the Life, opening the path for each of us to grow toward fullness. #MagnificaHumanitas

@DennisMJordan @RealJoseAbell @dianemontagna Oh, I’m not bothered, and I’m not trying to take advantage of you. Not everyone is trying to hurt you.

[Barios @RiversRios14]

@DennisMJordan @RealJoseAbell @dianemontagna This abrasiveness is a product of pain and suffering you’ve experienced, especially from the inaction or inability of those closest to you to protect you. It’s a defense mechanism. Maybe it has protected you, but it will never heal your wounds. Jesus can and will heal you.

@JamesSurowiecki @SonOfAnchis3s Sing in me, Muse, and through me tell the story of that coal-poaster James unnecessarily, in all ways, contending with any take that is critical of liberal revisionism, the wanderer, harried for years on end

[Barios @RiversRios14]

@Joeinblack This whole debate distills to this:
Gen Z: nothing works anymore, I’ve lost hope.
Boomer: you’ll figure it out, losers. Take my outdated bad advice
Millennials: don’t trust the Boomers. They’re liars and thieves
Gen X: eh, you’ll figure it out, kids. Or, whatever, I’m outta here

@downi75 No culture in the history of civilization has had this large of a proportion of childless women over 35. We’re heading for completely unprecedented times. The Age of the Meddling Spinster.

@WDevotionals @RepRileyMoore A priest cared for the least of society and suffered their disease in the process of caring for them because he wanted to bring people to Jesus.

You reply: What a sad and pathetic thing it is that you ask him to intercede for you before God. You need Jesus.
