232 years ago today, 16 humble Catholic Carmelite Nuns effectively put an end to the French Revolution’s Godless reign of terror in France.

How did they do it?

They died singing praises to the Lord and shattered the atheistic delusion that has overwhelmed the psyche of a nation

@poperespecter1 How about obeying God rather than me in matters sin? The Church is causing a scandal. That scandal is the cause of rupture. Sin divides men. It is not the will of God that does.

@CollinRugg Quite the incoherent speech

The barbarians are in the city. Modern man seeks to become a saint not by being a better man, but by moving about and adjusting the standard of good.

[Bishop Robert Barron @BishopBarron]

In a recent interview, Archbishop Vincenzo Paglia, former grand chancellor of the John Paul II Institute on Marriage and Family Life, confirmed the worst suspicions that many of us had.

He admitted that the changes he made at the Institute during the Pope Francis years were designed to initiate a "very profound" reform of the idea of the natural law.

Instead of absolute moral norms grounded in a keen understanding of the basic goods, he and his colleagues were proposing a moral theory rooted in historical discernment of subjective and cultural experience--not an "armchair theology" but one operating "within history and within people's lives."

This, of course, is the language of trendy postmodernism, and it is dangerous indeed.

Allow me to illustrate the principle with one example. Is slavery wrong?

Intrinsically wrong? Wrong no matter what public opinion polls say about it, no matter what the current consensus on it might be? I imagine any decent person would say yes.

But that yes is predicated upon precisely what the tradition calls the natural law and the basic goods. There are some values so fundamental that acts repugnant to them are by their very nature wicked.

If you want a highly articulate presentation of this idea, go to St. John Paul II's Veritatis Splendor.

If we say that this is just "armchair theologizing" and that morality is a function of ever-shifting cultural and experiential data, then why couldn't slavery be justified?

One of the very smartest persons that ever lived, the philosopher Aristotle, thought it was; extremely bright and morally upright persons in our country, well into the 19th century, thought it was permissible.

Who is to say whether the consensus might shift back again? Who is to say that "lived experience" might come to justify it?

What any truly coherent moral program requires is the very thing that Archbishop Paglia and his colleagues were endeavoring to eliminate, namely, absolute moral norms.

Ridding ourselves of these in the name of freedom or pastoral sensitivity actually renders moral discourse dysfunctional, just as relativizing the basic principle of logic would render any rational conversation impossible.

The Archbishop's interview, frankly, reminded me of the discussions I had at the Synod on Synodality with some of my German colleagues. Under the rubric of the development of doctrine, they were eager to relativize or radically change the principles undergirding classical morality. If this was and is truly the game, we have ventured onto perilous seas.

Good news. We shouldn't be manufacturing diseases.

[DNI Tulsi Gabbard @DNIGabbard]

Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth.

@dianemontagna Why not give a mandate? Which of you fathers gives a stone, when a child asks for bread? A snake when they want fish?

[Quincy Wamono @QWamono]

@ShaneSchaetzel @grok @grok why use BCE and CE yet the calendar you refer to was coined by a Christian? Why not you BC and AD as it was originally used. Isn't cultural misappropriation 😂

@Arealmfngl Why is this only an atrocity because of the colour of the perpetrator. Don't misunderstand me, the sin is that it was done, not the race that did.

@RaymondArroyo @ShannonBream @ArroyoGrandeSho @RaymondArroyo, the Pope just announced our beloved Nuncio to Kenya to Germany. He has been a solid rock for us. Germany is a church in need. Please pray for him.

@Goddie_Ke Then stop applying. We have no right to go to the US
