Gay surrogacy and gay adoption are predicated on the idea that gay men (or women) have a “right” to become parents. This idea is not only morally insane but also logically incoherent. It’s exactly like jumping off a building and claiming that you have the right to fly. Nobody has the right to defy the laws of nature. Where would such a right even originate? Two men cannot be parents. It’s impossible. Doesn’t matter how they feel or what they want. It cannot be. The only “right” at issue here is the right of the child. And the child has a right to be raised by a mother and a father, not two men masquerading as mother and father.

@Ndizi_Aii @MuchiriH @RealElvo It's too early to do branding. They are just going to install a new turf and some minor upgrades, unlike last time.

@Aystanx @Sammyritchies @gyaigyimii No English derby, other than Tyne-wear derby is exciting than derbies outside England. PL is just better marketed, nothing else.

@Sammyritchies @gyaigyimii Bro, it is not the win or the loss. It is the hate. Can’t blame you if you don’t understand

This is what you people don’t get. When we say the EPL is the best league in the world, we’re talking about the competitiveness and overall attractiveness of the league not just standout teams.
The competitiveness is what makes the EPL what it is. English teams might struggle in Europe, but within the league, nobody compromises. Chelsea stopped Spurs from winning the league in 2016 for no reason other than rivalry handing Leicester the title. A team fighting relegation will battle for a draw like it’s a cup final. Burnley used to frustrate top teams for fun, Luton came into the league fighting like every game was life or death. There are no “easy games.”
Meanwhile, in other leagues, teams adjust schedules or priorities to help clubs perform better in Europe. In the EPL, it’s simple hold that. Every team is on its own.
The league literally thrives on hate-watching. Chelsea fans were hate-watching Brighton at a point. Everton fans treat Liverpool games like a personal mission. Arsenal fans will sit through a full Spurs game just to pray on their downfall. Imagine Barcelona fans hate watching Eibar it just doesn’t hit the same.
In other leagues, teams play football. In the EPL, teams play war. 20th place can ruin 1st place’s season and half the country will be watching live to celebrate it. That chaos, rivalry, and pure shithousery is exactly why it’s the best league in the world.

We say the Premier League is the best league in the world but why can't we ever build teams close to the quality of Bayern, Madrid, PSG or Barcelona?

@Shao_Khan9 @gyaigyimii No one watches wolves vs fulham other than their own supporters.
English

@gyaigyimii This is True.
Just to add, EPL is more attractive and Lucrative. Imagine a Relegated EPL team earning more money for getting relegated than a team who win laliga.
Any fan can watch Wolves vs Fulham match but if its not the 2 madrid, barca, Paris, Bayern, no one has the time.

Dear brothers and sisters,
As Jesus walks the Way of the Cross, we place ourselves behind him, following in his footsteps. As we walk with him, we contemplate his passion for the sake of humanity, his broken heart, and his life as a gift of love.
We turn our gaze to Jesus, who reveals himself as King of Peace, even as war looms abounds him. He remains steadfast in meekness, while others are stirring up violence. He offers himself to embrace humanity, even as others raise swords and clubs. He is the light of the world, though darkness is about to engulf the earth. He came to bring life, even as plans unfold to condemn him to death.
King of Peace. Jesus’ desire is to bring the world into the Father’s arms, tearing down every barrier that separates us from God and from our neighbor, for “He is our peace” (Eph 2:14).
King of Peace. Jesus enters into Jerusalem not upon a horse, but upon a donkey, fulfilling the ancient prophecy that calls for rejoicing at the arrival of the Messiah: “Lo, your king comes to you; triumphant and victorious is he, humble and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey. He will cut off the chariot from Ephraim and the war-horse from Jerusalem; and the battle bow shall be cut off, and he shall command peace to the nations” (Zech 9:9–10).
King of Peace. When one of his disciples drew his sword to defend him and struck the high priest’s servant, Jesus immediately stopped him, saying: “Put your sword back into its place, for all who take the sword will perish by the sword” (Mt 26:52).
King of Peace. While he was burdened with our sufferings and pierced for our sins, Jesus “did not open his mouth, like a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent” (Is 53:7). He did not arm himself, or defend himself, or fight any war. He revealed the gentle face of God, who always rejects violence. Rather than saving himself, he allowed himself to be nailed to the cross, embracing every cross borne in every time and place throughout human history.
Brothers and sisters, this is our God: Jesus, King of Peace, who rejects war, whom no one can use to justify war. He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them, saying: “Even though you make many prayers, I will not listen: your hands are full of blood” (Is 1:15).
As we set our gaze upon him who was crucified for us, we can see a crucified humanity. In his wounds, we see the hurts of so many women and men today. In his last cry to the Father, we hear the weeping of those who are crushed, who have no hope, who are sick and who are alone. Above all, we hear the painful groans of all those who are oppressed by violence and are victims of war.
Christ, King of Peace, cries out again from his cross: God is love! Have mercy! Lay down your weapons! Remember that you are brothers and sisters!
In the words of the Servant of God, Bishop Tonino Bello, I would like to entrust this cry to Mary Most Holy, who stands beneath the cross of her Son and weeps also at the feet of those who are crucified today:
“Holy Mary, woman of the third day, grant us the certainty that, in spite of all, death will no longer hold sway over us; that the injustices of peoples are numbered; that the flashes of war are fading into the twilight; that the sufferings of the poor are breathing their last. And grant, finally, that the tears of all the victims of violence and pain will soon be dried up like frost beneath the spring sun” (Maria, donna dei nostri giorni).

The Paradox of the King and the Cross
Homily for Palm Sunday (Year A)
Today is Palm Sunday, the beginning of the Holy Week. The liturgy of today is very vast. It begins with the triumphant entry of Christ into Jerusalem. Jesus enters not on a war horse, but on a donkey, fulfilling prophecy and redefining kingship. He is a King, but not according to worldly categories. His authority is expressed in humility, not domination. Already, the paradox is clear: divine kingship revealed in meekness.
This paradox deepens in the First Reading from Book of Isaiah. The Suffering Servant speaks: “I gave my back to those who beat me… I did not shield my face from buffets and spitting.” This is not passive resignation, but active obedience. The Servant listens, receives, and responds in fidelity. Suffering here is not meaningless; it is redemptive, embraced in trust in God. Our own suffering too becomes redemptive when we unite it with the suffering of Christ.
The Christological center of the liturgy is found in Letter to the Philippians. St Paul presents a profound theological hymn: Christ, “though he was in the form of God, did not regard equality with God something to be grasped.” Instead, He “emptied himself” (kenosis), taking the form of a slave and becoming obedient unto death, even death on a cross. Here lies the logic of salvation: descent precedes exaltation. Humiliation becomes the path to glorification. What do we need to empty ourselves of?
This theology of today’s liturgy reaches its dramatic climax in the Passion narrative. Jesus is betrayed, denied, mocked, scourged, and crucified. Yet, throughout, He remains sovereign not by resisting suffering, but by freely embracing it. The Cross is not an accident; it is a mission. In it, Christ reveals the depth of divine love: a love that does not save from a distance, but enters into human suffering to redeem it from within.
Palm Sunday, therefore, confronts us with a decisive question: Which Christ do we accept? The triumphant Messiah of our expectations, or the suffering Servant who calls us to conversion? It is easy to wave palms; it is harder to carry the cross. It is easy to praise Christ in moments of comfort and consolation; it is harder to remain with Him in moments of trial and hardship.
Liturgically, we stand at the threshold of the Paschal Mystery - Suffering, Death, and Resurrection of Christ. The Church invites us not merely to observe these events, but to enter into them. The procession with palms is not a reenactment; it is a participation. The Passion is not a distant history; it is a present reality made sacramentally accessible. Thus, Palm Sunday is not simply about Christ’s journey, it is about ours. To follow Christ is to embrace the same path: suffering, humility, obedience, self-gift, and ultimately, trust in the Father. The Cross is not the end; it is the way.
As we begin Holy Week, let us move beyond superficial acclaim to authentic discipleship. Let our “Hosanna” not be a passing emotion, but a committed surrender. For the King we welcome today is the same Lord who invites us to die with Him so that we may also rise with Him. Amen.

Pope Leo XIV on Palm Sunday, forcefully denounces those who use God to justify war: “Brothers and sisters, this is our God, Jesus, King of Peace, who rejects war, whom no one can use to justify war. He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them saying “Though you make many prayers, I will not listen. Your hands are full of blood.”
