[Conor McGregor @TheNotoriousMMA]

I believe in one God,
the Father Almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.

I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.

God from God,
Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
consubstantial with the Father;
through Him all things were made.

For us men and for our salvation
He came down from heaven,

and by the Holy Spirit
was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.

For our sake He was crucified under Pontius Pilate,
He suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.

He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.

He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead,
and His kingdom will have no end.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Lord, the Giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.

I believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.

I confess one Baptism
for the forgiveness of sins,

and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come.

Amen. 🙏🏼

I truly don’t understand this ruling, do you? Why would the Supreme Court rule that way especially when the evidence confirms it is true? So glad this son won his battle against this and that his Mom shared his story 🙏

“The picture on the left was my son after more than a gallon of glyphosate was tipped over his neck and shoulders during a work accident. This is why I won't stay quiet. My healthy, 6 ft 5, 18 year old son was taken down to 125 pounds after glyphosate seeped into his pores.

That picture? He'd turned a corner then. We all felt like he just might make it. We were celebrating. He could stand. He could get out of his hospital bed. He didn't want a picture taken at his worst - with no hair from rounds and rounds of chemo, looking more shrunken, bigger tumors. A few months before this left picture, he was at death's door, stage 4 lymphoma and the doctors didn't give us much hope he would live.

I'm one of the fortunate mothers. My son battled like a warrior. He survived and the right picture is him now. But there was a brutal seven year battle with all the alternative methods, all the chemo... so much that he became chemo resistant. Then when nothing else would stop the tumors from growing back, a stem cell transplant that wiped out his whole immune system in the hope it would restart. Many mothers.... many families are not so fortunate. They lost their loved one.

Last week the Supreme Court voted 7 to 2 that glyphosate didn't need a cancer warning. Monsanto won. Bayer won. Two of the largest companies in the world won against thousands of families. My son, our entire family and thousands of others families who have had glyphosate impact their lives felt this blow in our guts.

Eleven years ago the WHO announced it "probably causes cancer." We want the "probably" word gone. We want this monster named for who it is and what it does.

We lost the fight last week. But the battle will keep going. Mothers like me won't stop. Because we know.”

@jakerattlesnk Why is an Egyptian telling Europeans how to run their countries? Go reform Egypt and the rest of the Muslim world. Europe is for the Europeans to govern.

An 11-year-old boy. One crochet hook. 60 skeins of yarn. No pattern. Two weeks. 🇺🇸

While juggling tennis camps and baseball games, Grayson poured his heart into crocheting this stunning American flag blanket—just in time to celebrate America’s 250th Independence Day. 🧨

No fancy instructions, just pure determination and love for his country. The result is a beautiful family heirloom that proves some of life’s greatest treasures are still made by hand. 🇺🇸✨

Proud of this kid and the quiet power of creativity in the next generation.
What an inspiration! 👏

The children of Sudan, Liberia, Uganda, and Sierra Leone are the responsibility of the men of Sudan, Liberia, Uganda, and Sierra Leone. The men of every nation carry the duty to provide the basics for their societies. Displacing that responsibility on to other societies enables indefinite incompetence and parasitism.

Since you love Persian carpets as much as I do, I’m resharing this handmade silk gem from Qom, Iran. Truly a splendor 💎

@JoshEakle The Amish are not a financial burden, nor a security threat. That's why no one cares about their assimilation.

I'm seeing multiple reports that rescued children are disappearing after the Venezuela disaster. Some say they are potentially kidnapped and trafficked. If true, it's time to prepare millstones.

Narnia is Christian movie.

People think Aslan is just a symbol for Jesus but C.S. Lewis said, "No, he IS Jesus."

C.S. Lewis clarified that Aslan is not an allegory (like a symbol in a poem).

He is a "supposal." Lewis asked: "Suppose there were a land like Narnia... what would Christ become if He entered that world?"

The answer is a Lion. Aslan is literally Christ in another form.

In Voyage of the Dawn Treader, Aslan tells the children: "I am in your world too. But there I have another name. You must learn to know me by that name. This was the very reason why you were brought to Narnia, that by knowing me here for a little, you may know me better there."

Narnia was written to train children to recognize the voice of God.

Mercy for the guilty is cruelty to the innocent. Our society gives far too much mercy to criminals, and in return they kill our innocent children. Cause and effect.

Rest in peace, Louis. Modern day humanity has let you down.

@kangminlee Or the Siege of Vienna? Both of them.

[Iraqi Christian Foundation @iraqschristians]

This is an OUTRIGHT LIE by this fake “theologian” JD Hall. The Ottomans absolutely charged Churches/Christians a jizya tax and brutalized Christians under their rule for 1,000 years, including with murder, rape, kidnappings, forcible conversions.

As recently as 1915, the Ottomans were charging Middle East Christians a jizya tax and we know this from first hand accounts of Catholic Bishops in Mesopotamia (modern-day Iraq). Bishops would struggle every month to pay the jizya needed to protect their community, including at times selling off community valuables to pay the tax. If the tax wasn’t paid, Christians were brutalized. Even if the tax was paid, Christians were brutalized.

@TuckerCarlson: STOP spreading false information regarding the brutality of Islam towards Middle East Christians for 1,400 years, in order to serve some political agenda.

Hey parents, if you've recently experienced concern about the content being produced for your kids by big brands, then consider Minno. It's like a Netflix streaming service, but for kids with content tailored around Christianity.

Less than $10 a month, $5 if you sign up annually.

Their collection seems to have well produced shows and movies. Hopefully, times are changing in the direction where you as parents will have options that you can rely on.

Generation cycles of fatherlessness are being broken.

This is what we need to celebrate this weekend in America.

Fathers of freedom are rising up. 🙏🏽

@SebastianMEP However "unsafe" they think they feel at the parliament, they're nowhere near as unsafe as young girls being targeted and assaulted in their own neighborhoods.
