He who is of a merry heart hath a continual feast.

Last Thursday, Roman Catholics celebrated the Feast of Corpus Christi. This Chinese catechetical poster demonstrates some of the Church's teachings on the Eucharist.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Christ who processes through the streets in the monstrance is the same Christ who identifies with the poor, the downtrodden, and those who are alone and forsaken.

@SeanTrende One of my life goals is never to go to Phoenix, so I have to ask someone who thinks otherwise: what’s the case in its favor?

@NKY_Leftist Ever heard of child support?

What makes the Smokies so beautiful and special is the wave of ridges, like ripples of water. A "River of Earth" as James Still put it (referring to Eastern Kentucky). Nothing is so easily defined up there and everyone is humbled.

@holysmoke Yes, in some cases a modernist church will create an austere, almost monastic atmosphere that appeals to me

@RobWigley2 @katrosenfield Odd that you don’t care enough to read about it, but you care enough to tell us that

I keep beating this drum but the idea that knowledge is first and foremost a perfection *in the knower* and only secondarily an external product is a hill to die on (and seemingly inconceivable to most people pushing AI)

[John H. Boyer @johnhboyer]

“In just such a sense can the medieval statement be understood, that it is ‘necessary for the perfection of the human community, that
there be persons who devote themselves to the [useless] life of contemplation.’ To which I would only like to add that this is necessary
not only for the perfection of the individuals themselves, who devote
themselves to the vita contemplativa, but also for the perfection
of the whole human community!” —Josef Pieper, “Leisure: The Basis of Culture”

@AmericanALCHMY The first sentence reads like a proof of the existence of God.

@Athens_Stranger @theo_nash Got it, I’ll back slowly away and leave you to yourselves

[Christopher Brown @caaronbrown]

@Athens_Stranger @theo_nash Only because he was part of the original exchange, nothing more than that

[Christopher Brown @caaronbrown]

@GaboKovo37153 @Athens_Stranger @theo_nash You can “do” something—say, apply a “historiographical” lens to the interpretation of Livy—without having made the philosophy of that something an area of study.

[Christopher Brown @caaronbrown]

@Athens_Stranger @theo_nash But you seem to be interpreting @theo_nash as if he were invoking historiography as an area of inquiry, as opposed to something to do. It looks to me like he was doing the latter.
