There’s music that makes you feel smart for playing it right, and there’s music that makes you feel dumb for playing it wrong.

Mel Gibson drops a raw, existential gut-punch in this 44-second clip:
“Why are the big realms of good and evil slugging it out for the souls, the hearts and souls of mankind? Why are we the meat in that sandwich? Little old us. Flawed us. Imperfect us. Why is that about us?”
He’s wrestling with the deepest question of all: why do the cosmic forces of good and evil seem locked in battle over ordinary, broken human beings like you and me?
No easy answers. Just honest searching — with faith, imagery, sound, and music as his tools to chase the truth.
In a world drowning in noise, this hits like a thunderclap.
What do you think — are we really the prize in some eternal war of good vs. evil, or is that too big a story for little old us?

These comparisons are a little too binary for me, but I may be a real outlier with a converted 165 verbal and 157 quant humanities DM. Interestingly, on the SAT way back in 1993 I was 95-98 percentile with elite math "potential" and 75th percentile verbal. I'm just weird though

Physics students score higher on the verbal GRE portion than humanities students, because intelligence is mostly one-dimensional and physics attracts more intelligent people on average.

Scripture shows heaven presenting your prayers before God.
The earliest Christians asked the saints to intercede.
You’re not talking to the dead.
You’re talking to the living in Christ.

Santiago Schnell, former Notre Dame science dean turned Dartmouth provost, says that Catholic univs must stop imitating secular schools and should instead be excellent at what makes them truly distinct.
His proposal for Catholic higher ed? Cultivate future Doctors of the Church

@PYeerk Why isn’t he spontaneously composing music in reverse keys, inverted meters and undertone harmonies for the orchestra to play while he sings a monophonic drone, live. Where’s all that attractive complexity??! You have to ignore it or be fueled by it, in anger.

Today at the General Audience, Pope Leo continued the catechesis on Vatican II’s Dei Verbum, reflecting on Sacred Scripture as God’s word in human words. As he said, “God is the principal author of Scripture,” who reveals himself through human language, history, and creativity—speaking to every time and place of his love and desire to save us.

The Borso d’Este Bible, one of the supreme masterpieces of the Italian Renaissance, was formally presented to Pope Leo XIV at the Vatican during an institutional ceremony attended by the President of the Italian Senate, Ignazio La Russa.
The encounter took on a particularly touching note when Pope Leo gently reached for the manuscript, carefully asking whether gloves were required and if he might turn its pages. Reassured that the precious volume could be handled, the Pope leafed through the codex with evident reverence, observing various Bible passages and illuminations.
Commissioned in the 15th century by Borso d’Este, Duke of Ferrara, the lavishly illuminated Bible—celebrated for its gold embellishments and Afghan lapis lazuli miniatures—stands as a pinnacle of European manuscript art, uniting exceptional artistic refinement, historical significance, and profound spiritual symbolism. It is rarely displayed outside its permanent home at the Estense Library in Modena.

BREAKING🚨: Minnesota AG Keith Ellison met with Somali community members later convicted in the massive fraud scheme—while they were already under FBI scrutiny—to secure campaign donations in exchange for promises to "get the money flowing" back to their group.
This reeks of corruption. CHARGE ELLISON! 🇺🇸⚖️
