Pope Leo XIV recently spoke about abuses of the liturgy.

The image shows one of the most common examples: the misuse of the orans posture (hands raised and extended) by the faithful during the Our Father.

In nearly every Novus Ordo Mass I attend (98% of them), the congregation does this.

This posture is proper to the priest, who stands in persona Christi, in the person of Christ, during the Our Father.

He extends his hands to God on behalf of the people, acting as their mediator and leader in prayer.

The laity have their own proper role: to pray with the priest, not to imitate his gestures.

The orans posture is a priestly gesture, not one intended for the non-ordained faithful.

Non-Catholics often pray this way because they do not have (or do not believe they need) a Catholic priest to lead them in prayer.

In the Catholic Mass, however, it is a grave abuse for members of the non-ordained faithful to “quasi-preside” in this manner, blurring the distinct roles of priest and people.

It’s all fun and games until Mythos 2 finds vulnerabilities in the human genome.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

As evidenced by the unbridled promotion and implementation of technology at the expense of human dignity, we are truly experiencing an eclipse of the sense of what it means to be human. It is imperative to recover an understanding of the true meaning and grandeur of humanity as intended by God. It is in this sense that the challenge we currently face is not technological, but anthropological, and it is my hope that the Encyclical Letter to be published within a few days will contribute to answering this challenge.

The brutal truth is that our entire system relies on abortion

You can’t keep women in the work force without abortion

You can’t maintain the casual sex culture and disrupt family formation without abortion

Women with children find themselves dependent on men, single women find themselves dependent on the state

Women are more likely to take abuse from employers, less likely to demand raises, less likely to oppose their replacement

People have been conditioned to believe they couldn’t function in society without abortion, and at some level we’ve ensured that’s correct

We’re far from the first civilization to base itself on child sacrifice but don’t lie to yourself, that’s exactly what we’ve done

You can look back on the Mayans in horror because they did their sacrifices on an altar but they could never hope to match our level of slaughter

Until the paradigm shifts there will be no popular support for it’s restriction

Greenland just signed away the last 50.5% of the largest heavy rare earth deposit in the Western world. The yellow box on this map shows where it sits. As of April 30, it belongs to a Nasdaq-listed company.

China just lost its biggest chokehold on the United States.

Heavy rare earths are dysprosium, terbium, yttrium, holmium. They're the four elements that let a permanent magnet hold its field at 200°C inside an F-35, a Tomahawk, a Patriot battery, and an EV traction motor. Substitutes don't exist. China processes 99% of the global supply. The headline 85% number covers all rare earths combined. For the heavy ones, where the magnets actually need them, the share is 99%. That's been the single biggest piece of leverage Beijing has held over Washington for two decades.

Tanbreez is the answer. 27% heavy rare earth content. Mountain Pass in California runs 1-3%. Mt Weld in Australia runs 1-3%. Nothing else in the Western world comes close.

Critical Metals Corp now owns 92.5%. Greenland approved the final transfer on April 17. The deal closed April 30. The stock went from under $9 to $13.52 in three weeks. Texas Capital launched coverage with a $20 price target.

The orebody is 8 kilometers wide, 5 long, 400 meters thick, sitting inside the 1.16 billion year old Ilímaussaq Alkaline Complex. The mineralogy is eudialyte, which the industry wrote off as uneconomic because the metallurgy collapsed at extraction. Every prior Greenland rare earth project died on that exact problem. Independent testing at Fremantle Metallurgy in March showed 40% better refined concentrate recovery. The chemistry problem just got solved.

Logistics are stacked. License valid until 2050. Deepwater fjord shipping into the North Atlantic year-round. New international airport 12 km from site. A $120 million EXIM Bank letter of intent already in. Pilot plant commissioning this month. First production targeted for 2028, scaling 85,000 tonnes per year up to 425,000.

Three-quarters of the concentrate is already pre-sold. The biggest piece is a 10-year offtake to Ucore in Louisiana, feeding directly into US defense magnet supply.

Greenland to Louisiana to the F-35. America just took the magnet supply chain back.

At this point he sounds so much like a president that he will either become one or get the Prigozhin treatment by the heretic Christian Zionist crew.

Um fato pouco conhecido, e impressionante, sobre a Igreja Católica na Coreia do Sul é que ela não começou com missionários, como aconteceu na maior parte do mundo.

No fim do século XVIII, estudiosos coreanos entraram em contato com textos cristãos vindos da China, especialmente obras de Matteo Ricci. Movidos por uma busca intelectual sincera pela verdade, eles mesmos começaram a estudar, praticar e difundir a fé, sem nunca terem visto um padre.

Em 1784, um desses estudiosos, Yi Seung-hun, viajou até Pequim, foi batizado e voltou à Coreia, onde passou a batizar outros. Assim, a Igreja coreana nasceu de leigos para leigos, algo praticamente único na história do catolicismo.

Quando os primeiros missionários chegaram anos depois, encontraram uma comunidade já estruturada, e também perseguida. Essa origem ajudou a moldar o caráter firme da Igreja coreana, que mais tarde daria inúmeros mártires, hoje reconhecidos como santos.

É um exemplo raro de fé que brota primeiro como busca da verdade e só depois encontra seus pastores.

@TrevorSheatz How do you honor Christ when your boss is doing the opposite on all counts?

[Bálint Te @balintte]

It is easy to think this doesn't apply to you.

It is harder to think once you find out about all the problems it causes in all kinds of families.

Abortion seems to be more accepted than talking about abortion.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

The Catholic Church has consistently taught that each human life, from the moment of conception until natural death, is sacred and deserves to be protected. Indeed, the right to life is the very foundation of every other human right. For this reason, only when a society safeguards the sanctity of human life will it flourish and prosper.

We trained an ML classifier on 107,875 transients from 1949-1957 Palomar plates to filter out plate defects. Turns out the real ones avoid Earth’s shadow/clusters around nuclear tests.

Either something reflective was in Earth orbit a decade before Sputnik, or dust on a glass plate has really strong opinions about nuclear weapons.
