@JHaddad01 But there are many other forms of humor, that properly respect the person and add levity to daily life. Inarguably, saints laugh – – and they do not do so in a way that was in incongruous with their sanctity. St. Lawrence seems to sink the good bishop’s argument.

[Colin MacIver @csmaciver]

@JHaddad01 I think, respectfully, that the bishop does not adequately define humor. There is a wide range. Perhaps most of it is finding a bit of joy in the midst of incongruity – – and there are forms of that which could be problematic and sinful – –

Today is St. Carlo Acutis' first feast day as a saint!

St. Carlo, pray for us! 🙏

Mercy. Not rage. Not hardened hearts. Just oceans and oceans of mercy.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Over a century ago, Pope Leo XIII noted that "the preservation of the Eastern rites is more important than is realized." Let us embrace the appeal to safeguard and promote the Christian East, especially in the diaspora. https://t.co/9uiYDTismI

Pope Leo XIV introduced a core framework for understanding salvation—Jesus as the gift and the path. https://t.co/zpYpYvuKp4

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

The Holy See is willing to help enemies meet, so they may look each other in the eye and so people may be given back the dignity they deserve: the dignity of peace. With heart in hand, I say to the leaders of nations: let us meet; let us dialogue; let us negotiate!

On Easter Sunday, Aimee and @csmaciver from Covington, Louisiana joined tens of thousands in St. Peter’s Square—unaware they were witnessing the final public appearance of Pope Francis. Just hours later, news broke of the Holy Father's passing. The MacIvers join to share more.

[Ascension @AscensionPress]

Truly remarkable that Ascension presenters and authors @csmaciver & Aimee MacIver happened to be in Rome and saw Pope Francis's final public appearance. 🙏
