@jrrogers625@jdflynn@Maristlizard That’s not true. There are all kinds of information and studies regarding youth and faith practices. Not a single one identifies “mandated service hours” as a contributing component in faith formation that effectively forms young disciples.
@jdflynn I've been that person. Desperate and broken in the pew and looking like a bum. That day, the pastor gave his fourth homily that year on the importance of dressing up for Mass. That was the day I decided never to worry about the clothes that I wear to Mass ever again.
@Micheal_Ilokwu@Pontifex Clearly you are not familiar with Pope John Paul II, one of the greatest popes in the history of the Catholic Church. He constantly called out political leaders and waded into political waters.
In the 2000 year history of the Church, world leaders who oppose the pope don't have a good track record. In all seriousness, this is a really bad take by the president and is yet another of the many examples of why he is unfit to be president.
Reporter: Why did you attack Pope Leo?
Trump: I don’t think he’s doing a very good job. He likes crime I guess. We don’t like a pope who says it’s ok to have a nuclear weapon. We don’t want a pope that says crime is ok. I am not a fan of Pope Leo.
Notre Dame should be in. Alabama should be out. Alabama controlled their own destiny. If they had won the SEC, they would have an automatic bid. Instead, they not only lost, they got massacred. Notre Dame is legitimately a top 4 program in the country right now.
@daileyjoyf I disagree. I think it shows strong leadership. The players voted not to allow ESPN to exploit their talents for money when they absolutely earned the right to play for the National Championship. There is nothing to gain for ND by playing in a meaningless bowl game.
@UMalumnus@KatiePMcGrady Lost to 2 top 10 ranked teams by less than 4 points combined. Dominated for 10 straight wins after that. They were on the bubble, but they should have easily been in. Alabama deserves to be in the CFP because...?
