All generalizations are false, including this one

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

May the Lord help you to become a society in which everyone, each according to their respective responsibilities, works ever more fully to serve the common good rather than private interests, bridging the gap between the privileged and the disadvantaged. May there be greater room for freedom, and may the dignity of the human person always be safeguarded.

I came across this medieval Christ figure today in a lonely churchyard overlooking the sea. Perhaps the most poignant crucifixion I’ve ever seen: Christ’s body salt-bitten and wind-ravaged; the weather sculpting its own lament.

‘Nietzche was temperamentally a religious man; nobody felt the loss of faith more keenly than he. So, he went abt [the fools errand of] creating a new faith; a new way of saying yes to life…for, the loss of belief in God meant the loss in belief of progress, even in linear time’

@JakeJarvis_ @ThomasSowell only ambiguity here is whats meant or understood by ‘justified’ . Because Constitutionally - & by precedent - it’s just not a Q: really, he doesnt need to waste a minute trying to justify himself, esp. w/o the bane of re-election ahead

@JakeJarvis_ @ThomasSowell Kennedy deployed Wallace’s own Natl. Gaurdsmen to neutralize the threat of violence posed to Vivian Malone & James Hood by violent protesters incited by Wallace, as they entered the enrollment office of Univ. Alabama

[A.J. Shaw @ajshaw207]

@JakeJarvis_ @ThomasSowell In 1962, Democratic President John. F Kennedy claimed authority of the Natl. Guard in Alabama, where Gov. George Wallace insisted ‘Segregation today, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever’ in Alabama schools, after the Courts declared it unconstitutional.

In making today’s announcement Pope Leo XIV says St. John Henry Newman is being made a Doctor of the Church for his decisive contributions to “the renewal of theology and to the understanding of the development of Christian doctrine.”

When the oppressed become the powerful, their trauma becomes policy. Unless healed, the past doesn’t stay behind us—it repeats through us.

@yogacid Very good, Louis! Very good
