@realpeteyb123 At least five claims here without evidence let alone an argument

Douthat being able to get those answers out of Trump is a testimony to why true intellectual diversity is needed in mainstream media. He was able to ask the religion question in a way that was sincere and open, while extremely cunning, only because he is a believer and conservative

Winter Lent begins on November 15th. We Orthodox Christians will abstain from meat and dairy during this season of preparation.

But please know we are keeping our eyes on our own plate, and we are not offended by your meal choices.

May God grant us all a wonderful Nativity.

The scheming junior emperor declares his opposition to the senior Augustus over failed war in Persia. Classic gambit

@kvallier Sentences 2-4 are true, but does not make your opening sentence true. That remains to be seen.

This seems a strange way to describe someone who fought at the Somme, who lost nearly all his closest friends in battle, who drank the nectar of ancient poetry with C. S. Lewis, who wholly & irrevocably re-invented the fantasy genre.

@BrotherAugusti2 I’m really glad you shared this. Bc I was wondering if I should follow you bc you seemed like bad news, now I know you are one who has a pattern of sowing discord, and you can’t see yourself as part of the problem

True. It is an A/B test we run every few years

Actual results aside, it does not seem healthy for a country to swing to radically every two years. Horrendous for any long-term policy.

When the Republican Party could no longer abide mitt romney, who it had once nominated as president, despite keeping his character consistent, you knew it was the beginning of the end

[Mitt Romney @MittRomney]

Bad policy, bad character make bad politics: erratic tariffs, impulsive Iran war, blanket pardons, apparent corruption, weaponized justice, ICE brutality, mountainous deficits, hiding Epstein, abandoning allies and coddling enemies. Hoping for a course correction, for the country and for my party.

This is phenomenal journalism.

Do you realize how bad you have to govern for this to happen?

@roddreher Poor taste

Orthodox converts will read a thousand monastic books and not understand the most basic principles of mercy and humility, that when you judge someone unjustly their punishment falls as a curse upon you.

This is why we always pray; “Lord, have mercy on me, a sinner” and affirm “of whom I am chief”.

This is why confession is a sacrament, because it is Christ who judges us justly and then chooses to forgive us everything we ask of Him.

This is why scandal is a choice; and if we choose to be scandalised we are actually choosing to stand in judgement and making someone else’s sin about us.

If all you can see of a man is his sin, you have no love for him and do not see him as Christ sees him.

This design is slop. But your reaction to this is a pretty good mental health barometer.

[Jennifer Greenberg 🕊️ @JennMGreenberg]

Hell to the no.

I would rather suffer a thousand paper cuts, be soaked in lemon juice, and then forced to listen to Baby Shark for 6 months straight while eating nothing but grits.

Try showing your wife this budget of your household expenses

@LABC222 Yeah. Once you see the empty, albeit passionate, formulaic emotional manipulation, you can't unsee it. https://t.co/WHoCwZ9loI

I feel like there’s a list of things you shouldn’t do once you’re married because they’re dumb ways to leave your spouse a widow/er (and a longer list once you have kids)

Motorcycles are very high on that list

@blakevictorkent It was as if he asked chatgpt for a way to say money without saying money

This is the height of arrogance. Start with their worldview and self-conception in it. This is what we all do.

[𝓜 @Midewontmiss]

What’s a polite way to tell someone, “I’m not discussing this with you because your entire understanding of the subject is built on so many interconnected misconceptions that correcting them would require uninstalling your current worldview and starting the tutorial from birth”?
