Catholic World Report@cworldreport·
Why, writes Matthew Becklo, when so much of the world has embraced the revolution—when it would be so easy to leave or ignore the Church—do progressives desperately try to change the Church, to make it into something it’s not, and never can be? catholicworldreport.com/2025/07/07/on-…

“Weary of left/right, science/religion, ascetic/epicurean, faith/reason, either/or binaries?” “The Way of Heaven and Earth” by @MatthewBecklo “reveals the road to recovery,” writes Catholic counselor Peggy Haslar: on.wof.org/4eBnkPz

Today is the feast of St. Junipero Serra. Takes me back when Bishop Barron organized a coalition to stand athwart an attempt to vandalize the Saint’s statue at Santa Inez Mission. The effort failed. The mob dispersed. The statue remained.

Since becoming pope, Leo XIV, the "Son of Saint Augustine," has quoted the Doctor of Grace—by my count, and appropriately enough—no less than 33 times. That's an average of about once every 1.5 days.

@EricRSammons How does this misrepresent Vatican II? He never says "will" be saved or "will likely" be saved—only "can." Also, how do you square the charge that this position does "serious harm" to evangelization with Word on Fire's work and the countless converts and reverts who cite it?

I think Bishop Barron does a lot of good, but his muddled views regarding the potential salvation of non-Catholics (which distorts the tradition and even misrepresents Vatican II) does serious harm to the Church's evangelization efforts.

When its 100 degrees out, there are two kinds of middle-aged American dads: those who ask if it's "hot enough for ya?" and those who remind you to "stay cool." I have to decide which one I want to be.

Pope Leo XIV
Pope Leo XIV@Pontifex·
War does not solve problems; on the contrary, it amplifies them and inflicts deep wounds on the history of peoples, which take generations to heal. No armed victory can compensate for the pain of mothers, the fear of children, or stolen futures. May diplomacy silence the weapons! May nations chart their futures with works of peace, not with violence and bloodstained conflicts!
