Israeli drone strike in southern Lebanon kills four American citizens. Three of them were children. Israel takes our money, carries out a genocide, bombs sovereign countries and kills our people. Yet the ones demonized are *Americans* who love this country enough to speak out against this injustice.
No one will silence me. Ever.
Danny Abdallah, the Catholic father who lost his three children in a February 1, 2020, Sydney car crash, visited Samuel Davidson, the man responsible, inside a maximum-security prison. There, they received Holy Communion together and embraced, with Danny saying that their children, now pray for Davidson on their knees at home.

@BackwardsFeet@Notsurewellsee I can tell you first hand from the short conversation I had with Pope Leo that he definitely is wary of AI and its dangers
@NoTrueScotist Death penalty is a great example. Utilitarianism and misguided justice pushes me to want many criminals put to death. Only through the Church do I see how the death penalty is a last resort without good justification in my country where criminals can be imprisoned reliably
@praytherosary Depends when it comes to footwear. In the US, probably no sandals. In some countries, you take your shoes/sandals off when you enter the church.
@WomanDefiner Yep, John Carroll! I'm (very distantly) related to him. The Carroll family was very wealthy in Munster, County Cork, and a small branch moved to the colonies and became huge. They still own a landmark status mansion in Maryland
@TaylorRMarshall@Catholicizm1 Yes... The Mass is the ultimate prayer! Why would you willingly stop participating! It's one thing to privately off your own things to the Lord while the priest is not praying. But if the priest is praying, you should not be doing something else
@iam_shwa@katiakitty1234 I don't know how Fr Door and Fr Anthony put up with that crucifix. They are some of the most reverent and traditional priests I know!
We have a video of two Christian women being tied to a post on Christmas Day, with a religious image stapled above their heads to mock them.
We're not gonna say what country, what people. Because we are not allowed to on X anymore, judging by our posts that have been censored.
I grew up in a completely homogeneous society with no diversity so I’m acutely aware of what we have lost.
Multiculturalism is a recent phenomenon in Ireland, allow me to explain.
There were no black people in my neighbourhood, school, local sports teams or church. None. Zero. No foreigners at all.
Well, there were 4 refugees from Kosovo up the road, but they were actual refugees. Disabled kids with no parents taken in by Irish families. Other than that, no foreigners.
I didn’t meet a black person in Ireland until I was 20 years old. For the first half of my life there were no kebab shops, no foreign taxi drivers and no foreigners working in hotels or retail until the Polish arrived.
Women didn’t have to worry about foreigners following them home because there wasn’t any around.
Fast forward to 2024 and my town is overrun with foreigners. Foreign languages on the streets, foreign shops everywhere and gangs of foreign men loitering on every corner. Even the gardai are foreign.
Everything I knew about my home has changed. This town and this country are completely unfamiliar to me and every day it gets worse.
Demographics = destiny.
