Did we really need to put this much thought into this?
The democrats stationed buses outside their rallies during the 2024 campaign and handed out abortions and vasectomies like candy.
They literally campaigned on the rights of doctors to murder babies, mutilate the genitals of teenagers on tv, and euthanize old people.

Who makes better parents? Left-wingers or right-wingers? Right-wingers, says Jonathan Haidt, #1 NYT bestseller and one of the most cited living social psychologists. “Right-wingers make better parents than left-wingers, and there’s a lot of data on this.”

Um fato pouco conhecido, e impressionante, sobre a Igreja Católica na Coreia do Sul é que ela não começou com missionários, como aconteceu na maior parte do mundo.
No fim do século XVIII, estudiosos coreanos entraram em contato com textos cristãos vindos da China, especialmente obras de Matteo Ricci. Movidos por uma busca intelectual sincera pela verdade, eles mesmos começaram a estudar, praticar e difundir a fé, sem nunca terem visto um padre.
Em 1784, um desses estudiosos, Yi Seung-hun, viajou até Pequim, foi batizado e voltou à Coreia, onde passou a batizar outros. Assim, a Igreja coreana nasceu de leigos para leigos, algo praticamente único na história do catolicismo.
Quando os primeiros missionários chegaram anos depois, encontraram uma comunidade já estruturada, e também perseguida. Essa origem ajudou a moldar o caráter firme da Igreja coreana, que mais tarde daria inúmeros mártires, hoje reconhecidos como santos.
É um exemplo raro de fé que brota primeiro como busca da verdade e só depois encontra seus pastores.

The Church Has Been Saying These Women's Names at Every Mass for Over 1,500 Years, and Most Catholics Don't Know Who They Are
Most of us recite the prayers. Few of us know the lives behind them. That's about to change.
One was nine months pregnant in a Roman prison.
One was twelve years old.
One was a servant. One was a noblewoman.
They came from different centuries, different countries, different lives.
But they all faced the same choice.
And they all answered the same way.
Their names are spoken out loud in the Roman Canon at every single Mass. Not as a ceremony. Not as a ritual gesture. As a real prayer, with real names, for real people who actually lived and died.
St. Perpetua. St. Felicity. St. Agatha. St. Lucy. St. Agnes. St. Cecilia. St. Anastasia.
You've heard those names. Probably dozens of times. But do you know their stories?
Perpetua was a young mother from a noble family. Felicity was her pregnant servant. They were imprisoned together in Carthage in 203. Felicity gave birth in prison just days before they were both sent into the arena.
Agnes was about 12 or 13 years old when she was martyred in Rome.
Agatha refused a Roman official who wanted her to abandon her vow to God. She was tortured and died in prison.
Lucy gave away what she had to the poor and stayed faithful to Christ until she was killed during the Diocletian persecution.
The Church did not forget them. It kept saying their names at Mass for centuries.
Here is the question their lives keep asking:
If your faith actually cost you something, not your comfort but your safety, your freedom, your life, would you still hold on to it?
That is not a rhetorical question. It is the one they answered.
Next time you are at Mass, listen for their names. You will hear them differently now.
Share this if someone in your life deserves to know their story.

From the paper: "Several high-quality trials have shown that universal mental health interventions based on mindfulness, cognitive behavioural therapy, dialectical behavioural therapy and general mental health awareness can all have negative outcomes, including an increase in internalizing symptoms."
As critics have been arguing all along, individualised, medicalised and decontextualised models & narratives are not only net ineffective, but even contribute to and exacerbate social & psychological issues and distress.
We dont face a crisis of 'mental disorders' in need of medical or cognitive treatment, we face a socio-psychological crisis and a crisis of medicalisation in need of a societal rethink.
