A cutting reflection from Cardinal Ratzinger, Good Friday 2005:

"Pilate is not utterly evil. He knows that the condemned man is innocent, and he looks for a way to free him. But his heart is divided. And in the end he lets his own position, his own self-interest, prevail over what is right.

Nor are the men who are shouting and demanding the death of Jesus utterly evil. Many of them, on the day of Pentecost, will feel "cut to the heart," when Peter will say to them: "Jesus of Nazareth, a man attested to you by God... you crucified and killed by the hands of those outside the law."

But at that moment they are caught up in the crowd. They are shouting because everyone else is shouting, and they are shouting the same thing that everyone else is shouting. And in this way, justice is trampled underfoot by weakness, cowardice and fear of the diktat of the ruling mindset. The quiet voice of conscience is drowned out by the cries of the crowd.

Evil draws its power from indecision and concern for what other people think."

Bowhead whale cells exhibited enhanced DNA double-strand break repair capacity and fidelity, and lower mutation rates than cells of other mammals. We found the cold-inducible RNA-binding protein CIRBP to be highly expressed in bowhead fibroblasts and tissues. Bowhead whale CIRBP enhanced both non-homologous end joining and homologous recombination repair in human cells, reduced micronuclei formation, promoted DNA end protection, and stimulated end joining in vitro. CIRBP overexpression in Drosophila extended lifespan and improved resistance to irradiation.

Just sat listening to the new record and I’ve got a really really good feeling this time round! Can’t wait for you all to hear it!!

Pope Francis prayed the Regina Coeli in Latin

Pope Francis had a Twitter / X account in Latin

Pope Francis valued the Latin language

If people hadn’t spent 12 years stuck on sensationalistic media with an axe to grind, and actually got to *know* Francis, they would know this

Esta fue la melodiosa y hermosa invocación al Espíritu Santo, llamada "Veni, Creator Spiritus", (Ven, Espíritu Creador) que tuvo lugar al inicio del Cónclave, para elegir al nuevo Papa.

The moment in 2013 when Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio made his conclave oath in the Sistine Chapel

He was elected pope within the next couple of days

[Universitarios Católicos @UniCatolicos_es]

Comienza la “Misa para elegir al Pontífice”, previa al Cónclave que empieza esta tarde.

Se invocará al Espíritu Santo para que ilumine a los cardenales.

Está presidida por el Card decano, Giovanni Battista Re.

Recemos para que los cardenales sigan la voz del Espíritu Santo.
