I'm starting a list of things that America will no longer have when Christian Nationalists come into their kingdom. One is dance for so many obvious reasons. Too many gays. Too many women in leotards. Too much human joy by simply living in the moment. #NotForTheDeadInChrist
Pope Leo on Pentecost: “With fervent hearts, let us pray today that the Spirit of the risen One may save us from the evil of war, which is overcome not by a superpower, but by the omnipotence of love. Let us pray that he free humanity from misery, which is redeemed not by immeasurable wealth, but by an inexhaustible gift.”https://t.co/dfKeUqKeYB
Let us learn to be rich in a different way: more attentive to relationships, more intent on valuing the common good, more attached to the local area, more grateful in welcoming and integrating those who come to live with us.
As many of you well know, Bob Dylan means a lot to me. His birthday is this Sunday, and I recorded his song “You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go” in tribute to him. Happy 85th birthday, @bobdylan!
