CHRIS TOMLINSON: Canada’s China deal could be a “Warning” to America —The Northwest Passage between Canada and Greenland who controls that a growing strategic flashpoint for America — “China realizes if you control the choke points of trade, you control the world.”
It was wonderful meeting political commentator and podcast host Michael Knowles at the National Catholic Prayer Breakfast in DC. He’s a truly inspiring figure for millions of young Catholics.
He’s quoting historian Will Durant to the effect that this is the way of the world. History is a record of conquest, and might typically prevails regardless of who is right. Christianity is in full agreement that Satan is the prince of this world and his side often prevails.
Benjamin Netanyahu says Jesus Christ has no advantage over Genghis Khan. Netanyahu says that if you are strong enough, ruthless enough, and powerful enough, “evil will overcome good.” What's your message to Benjamin Netanyahu?
What we witnessed in London at the historic Trafalgar Square, in a country built on Judeo-Christian values, was a group of people attempting dominance over our capital city and our culture. We are not going to surrender everything that was built over centuries and defended at great cost in two world wars for us to be a free, independent nation. The British people will not put up with this any longer — simple as.
As I have already stated; Catholic teaching, including Vatican II, directly counters anti-Israel stances like Carrie Prejean's that delegitimize the State of Israel, call it genocidal, or frame opposition to it as non-antisemitic while rejecting Zionism outright. All positions that often veer into bigotry or born from it. Vatican II's Nostra Aetate (1965), section 4, condemns antisemitism unequivocally, "the Church... decries hatred, persecutions, displays of anti-Semitism, directed against Jews at any time and by anyone." It rejects portraying Jews as rejected or accursed by God and affirms the shared spiritual patrimony between Christians and Jews. Full text: vatican.va/archive/hist_c… In 1993, St. John Paul II established full diplomatic relations via the Fundamental Agreement between the Holy See and the State of Israel, recognizing Israel's sovereignty and committing to combat antisemitism, racism, and intolerance together. It affirms cooperation and respect for both parties' rights. Full text: vatican.va/roman_curia/se… The Church upholds the irrevocable covenant with the Jewish people (Romans 11) and calls antisemitism a sin. While not endorsing theological Zionism (I don’t either), it has never taught that Jews lack a right to a homeland or that Israel should be erased - that is opposite to rhetoric singling out the Jewish state for delegitimization. Prejean's claims misalign with all this binding Magisterium. The Catholic Church demands rejection of hatred in all forms, truth, and reconciliation with our Jewish elder brothers. I don’t believe I needed to spell this out for you because you claim to be Catholic. What evidence do you have that the Catholic Church has changed its teachings and positioning with Israel or Jews since these were posited?
'I really wanted to come on in a Reform tartan burka, but apparently I wasn't allowed' 'On day lets do one of these events not livestreamed. We'll do all the naughty stuff' Sarah Pochin says she wants to wear a tartan burka at Reform's Scottish Election launch
