At least there's this: Suffering born well is an occasion for great merit.

I think this is a mischaracterization of the Catholic teaching on Scripture
A person ought to read Scripture in light of other Scriptures (for example, we may read the Lord’s statement to take and eat His body in Matthew 26 in light of the command to eat his flesh in John 6, for example).
Of course, there is the teaching authority of the Magisterium to settle disputes and teach with authority, but ultimately, there is a reason why the laity are encouraged to read the Scriptures. The greatest theologians spent extensive time in exegesis, which largely requires seeing the harmonies of Scripture
When confused on a teaching of Scripture, one ought to look to other areas of Scripture, the Tradition handed down by the Church, and the teaching of the Magisterium

@crousselle Wife and I are both O- so we genuinely don't need rhogam, but would get it if we did. I can tell though that the doctor's don't believe us. I guess this is why.

Between this and the anti-rho gam rhetoric I’ve seen on social media it’s been really scary to watch vulnerable people get bad info

This was a hard story to report. At the morgue, the babies were brought in with their diapers and blankets and with their hospital ID bracelets still wrapped around their tiny ankles. propublica.org/article/more-p…

Once again, I feel that people assume rich people are paying a lot of money to dress like hamburgers for a night. In reality, fashion houses buy tickets and allocate them to celebrities, who they dress to show off how they can make hamburger shaped outfits.

it would be wiser of the ultra-rich to display their wealth in private; when it is public we can see--literally--how their tax cuts allow them to waste millions of dollars on absurdly extravagant costumes of no benefit to anyone. granted this is a fund-raiser, & without providing a platform for vanity, by keeping the displays private, not so much money would be raised.

@CapturingChrist @emuse1955 Brother, I'm not sure if this rage-bait approach is best, regardless of what your opponent did. I firmly believe the LDS "church" is false and Joseph Smith was wicked, but I do not know how we could hope to reach those deceived by him in this way.

Asking your English-actor bad guy to adopt an American accent for your ancient Greek epic, Nolan the absolute madman.

The new trailer for Christopher Nolan's ‘THE ODYSSEY’ has been released. In theaters on July 17.

@stinekey And unfortunately instead of genuine discussion of the movie we're going to end up with a bunch of trolls complaining about race swapping and the reactionary liberals pretending it's the best film ever because they don't want to agree with the trolls about anything.

Why does this feel so mid, it should be at least as exciting as Dune and right now I'm going to see this once and never think about it again.

@lukei4655 This becomes obvious when you think about the fact that pastors are meant to be fathers to their flock, not branch managers.
English
If I were a Bishop one of the first things I’d do is remove term limits for pastors. Both the priest and the people have a right and institutional need for stability. If you need to remove a guy, start a canonical process. If you don’t trust a guy, don’t make him a pastor.

@TradVat2 I actually thought OP was some kind of parody at first.

Tell me the date that Peter, James, and John ordained Joseph Smith. Month, day, and year. (There is a reason they will be very vague about that one).

If you claim to have the priesthood of God, please show me your line of authority.

@sourpatchlyds @SethDillon It's worth noting that Bleuy is canonically set over weekends.

@SethDillon My hot take is that your really don't have to play with your kids all the time a la Bandit & Chili in Bluey. Lol. You can and should let them play alone, with each other, or just be bored!
English
Stop whatever you're doing — especially if you're reading The New York Times — and play with your kids.

@James_Kabala @fr_faulkner It is part of the version of the prayer in Matthew though.
English
My thought is:
1) if it breaks the rhyme, absolutely unconscionable.
2) if it doesn’t break the rhyme, it’s up for grabs (i.e. possible) but still does it change the overall feel?
3) Never mix and match. If it’s Thee to keep just 1 rhyme, keep Thous through the whole thing.
Philip Bunn@PhilipDBunn
I’m not saying that people who remove “thee,” “thou,” “thy,” “thine,” etc in modern hymnbooks, thereby ruining internal rhymes, should be “excommunicated.” But I am saying if YOU said they should be excommunicated, I could see the argument.

@hf_222222 What was the rug pull (I haven't been paying attention)

Lol, imao.
To publish this right before Pope Leo did a rug pull on such delusional cope has to be the funniest prat fall Hendro has managed for a while.

It’s true.
I often see people on social media (usually the ones wanting to be hired by your parish to profit off of it) mention the bulletin is useless and it’s better to get rid of it and go all in on social. Focus on social, but don’t neglect physical reminders and media.
Fr. Cassidy Stinson@TheHappyPriest
I don’t know who needs to hear this, but the information you’re looking for is probably in the bulletin
English
@CaptainVatican So the most recent study done by CARA says that not only do 96% of weekly massgoers read the bulletin, so do 58% of only occasional massgoers! It’s such a cultural staple, Catholics know it’s where they need to go for the latest info even if it’s only an online bulletin

I've been following with interest the discussions following the debate on Fatima with @emuse1955 (as I have family who are persuaded Guadalupe is demonic). The videos by @sincead33 and @WalmartThomist were excellent.
