Wait... I thought the Cardinal said he didn't want to hold a gathering? He said it was only 4 people?
I made a post this morning defending the Cardinal and have since, deleted it because this was definitely a political game he was playing.
I apologize for not seeing it before... I wanted to believe it was all genuine 🤦♂️

The Israeli government tried to stop Cardinal Pizzaballa from commemorating the ONE & ONLY True Messiah’s entry into Jerusalem. He decided to take it to Mount of Olives. Incredibly, this is the very spot Jesus wept over Jerusalem. The symbolism here is 🔥

You are spreading misinformation, fuelled by your God-less hate.
All religious sites are closed in Jerusalem’s Old Town due to Iran’s barbaric attacks on civilian areas. All, including Jewish sites like the Wailing Wall.
No restrictions elsewhere

Yet Catholics in the same nation aren’t allowed to celebrate Mass during Holy Week.

Pfizer-BioNTech An mRNA-based vaccine widely used worldwide
Korobochka (コロボ) 🇦🇺✝️@cirnosad
The mRNA vaccine targets the ovaries in females and these females can still create a viable offspring, but when their daughters eggs are formed, they will be formed using the rewritten genome. It's possible to create an infertile generation after that. It was a bioweapon against humans by Neanderthals. I'm sorry if you've taken it. You have no idea how bad things are.

@ryanburge My priest said among the faithful are very many simple people and some highly intelligent ones.
1: The priests are obs better educated than those in the pews
2: The priests obs don’t propagate their political believes but preach the gospel - and some switch of their hearing aids

45% of mainline clergy say that they are liberal Democrats.
It's 24% of people sitting in their pews.
12% of mainline clergy identify as conservative Republicans.
It's 37% of people sitting in their pews.

@winkelsdorf Guter Ansatz. Und wo würden Sie streichen - im Sozialsystem? Bei der Verteidigung? Bei Wirtschaftssubventionen? Bei Wissenschaft und Forschung? Bei Infrastruktur? Mit dem Rasenmäher?

Wäre ich gezwungen,in die Politik gehen zu müssen,ich würde radikal 25 Prozent der öffentlichen Ausgaben ersatzlos streichen und dieses Geld den Steuerzahlern zurückgeben

Wer bei Vonovia wohnt, zahlt jeden Monat 166 Euro Miete an die Aktionäre des Konzerns. Das ist pure Abzocke! Wohnungskonzerne wie Vonovia sind nicht für uns Mieter da, sondern für ihre Aktionäre. Schluss damit: Unser Zuhause gehört nicht an die Börse! #mietennotstand

A pro-Zionist contingent within the Catholic Church has no future among anyone under 40.
The theological logic runs too strongly in the other direction, and the moral witness of a war that has killed thousands of civilians — including the bombing of the only Catholic church in Gaza — has calcified an entire generation’s skepticism into conviction.

@hf_222222 How does the Catholic Church in Germany have 800k (presumably largely lay) employees?
English
Just playing around with some figures on the German Church, and realising if reported numbers are correct, their payroll is 60% of their total Mass attendance (800k employees, 1.3m Mass attendees).
That is ... illustrative of the sickness which is killing it.

@The_Chandrian You're right, I can't. The real question is why do you assume that I do
English
-Born to an Eastern Orthodox family
-Forced to practice the faith without explanation
-Became anti-religion due to resentment
-Became libertarian, ergo more tolerant
-Heard God's calling, became Protestant
-Got disappointed, chose Catholicism over EO after discernment
-No regrets

@BaldwinIVofJer Sure. Be incensed.
But if SSPX will be able to get away with their ordinations, let’s see married priest all over.
I’m sure they’ll be far more pleasant than those married converts that are Catholic Priests at the moment
English
I expect every last person incensed at the SSPX announcing their intention to illicitly ordain bishops will be just as vocal about this announcement of intended illicit ordinations from the left as well.

@GrageDustin There’s no Catholic VP
There’s a cosplaying VP

I don’t understand this “Catholics are being pushed out of the coalition” narrative.
We have a Catholic VP.
We’ve never been more accepted.
I will absolutely call out this sudden trend of people becoming “Catholic” five minutes ago just to attack Jews.
That isn’t Catholicism.

Ich habe in den letzten Tagen mit mehreren Freunden und Familienangehörigen aus Deutschland telefoniert. Sie alle sagten, "Trump hat keinen Plan". Genau diese Formulierung. "Es ist ein Krieg ohne Plan", "keiner hat einen Plan".
Ich weiss nicht, von wem der Plan stammt, aber der Plan ist deutlich erkennbar. Der Plan ist auch nicht neu. Ob er zum gewünschten Ergebnis führen wird,
