@BackwardsFeet I for one cannot WAIT to see what Colbert's vision of "Man Before the Fall" AKA Tom Bombadil will be🙄

everyone is getting mad and no one actually read the article this isn't some "woke new story" with a woman protagonist sam's daughter is a plot setup to get into FLASHBACKS OF TOM BOMBADIL

@exRhenum @AnthonyOlawoye @BishopBarron That non-Christians can be saved is not counter to Catholic teaching and is therefore not heresy. Y'all demoralization slaves in Myanmar need to get your theology straight.

@AnthonyOlawoye @BishopBarron Saying non-Christians can be saved, which he clearly did, is denying the entire message of the Gospel.

Friends, I was absolutely delighted to hear this morning that the Vatican will beatify Archbishop Fulton Sheen on September 24!  From the very beginning of my work in evangelization through the media, Sheen has been my model and inspiration. I look forward with enthusiasm to calling on “Blessed Fulton Sheen” as a heavenly friend and intercessor. vaticannews.va/en/vatican-cit…

@BishopBarron ♥️

@calvinrobinson Howzabout you go find a licit crozier? You're doing a whooooole lot of shepherding for someone w/ no authority over the sheep.

Daily Wire finds a troubling pattern in Catholicism. The problem is, Catholics cannot be manipulated in the same way as evangelicals. Catholics are not Zionists. It is in Israel’s interests to have Christians believe they must be “committed Zionists to receive God’s blessing.”

My user experience just got 500 times better

Archbishop Richard Moth leads the Church in England and Wales in succession to the pre-Reformation bishops of England through the restored hierarchy. IOW there is no Archbishop of Canterbury for everyone to trouble themselves about. Hasn't been since 1558.

@AdamPollock Worry not, none of those bishops are real bishops anyway, it's all just a pretendo ceremony

The Church of England has got someone to play a guitar in Canterbury Cathedral during the enthronement of the Archbishop of Canterbury. I’m sorry but this is absolutely ridiculous. Please can the church just be normal again?

@FredSimonTLM There's one Church→and every valid baptism brings a person into that Church→and that Church's name is the Catholic Church. So teeeechnically, isn't everyone who's been validly baptized a Catholic, irreversibly, whether they like it or not?😁 Degrees of communion/heresy vary.

Who are you calling a non Catholic?

@AgainstAtheismX Prolly got nuked by a comet I guess

Christians What happened to the dinosaurs?

@CatholicFQ @disclosetv Actually Archbishop Richard Moth is head of the Church of England because there's only one Church and the king and this lady ain't in it.

@disclosetv The Monarch is the head of the Church of England

NOW - Dame Sarah Mullally is officially "enthroned" as the Archbishop of Canterbury, head of the Church of England, becoming the first woman to take the role in 1,400 years.

@disclosetv >the first woman to take the role in 1,400 years Ohhhhhhhh so we're talking about the CATHOLIC head of English Christianity, whew! In that case, relax everyone. It's not this woman. It's this guy. (also, there was never a woman in that role prior to 1400 years ago, either, btw)

@SaintLaurant @CinemaTweets1 oh that's not the issue, the issue is his total disdain for Tolkien's worldview; a radical, radical disdain he's spent a decade destroying as publicly as possible

@CinemaTweets1 Colbert does have extensive professional writing experience, plus has been a huge Tolkien "geek" for decades. His late night show shouldn't typecast him to just comedy.

Why is Stephen Colbert given the responsibility to write a new Lord of the Rings film? What am I missing- how is this happening? I have no opinion about Colbert on a personal level, I’m neutral, but what qualifies him to write this? Because he’s a massive LOTR fan? That’s it?

@elonmusk @dvorahfr 😐

@dvorahfr We will pause moving forward with this until further consideration

I'm based in France, but 43% of my audience is American. I know many of us are in the same situation. To reach a wider audience, all my posts are in English, the international language. Those who cause trouble may be punished, but with this change, which will significantly reduce our earnings, you're also penalizing a number of accounts that use the international language without any ill intent. X tells us that videos and new, high-quality content will be prioritized, but this change will, on the contrary, drastically reduce our earnings. Is there any way to reverse this decision, please?🥺 @XCreators @X @nikitabier @elonmusk

@justindeanlee Don't be fooled man, chicks love this stuff. See: Dionysian cults.

The first time I abandoned a girlfriend in the mountains was an accident. We had an argument about something trivial, and she decided to go off on her own for a bit to cool down. I insisted she stick to the trail, but she said she didn’t need me mansplaining how to find her way in the woods. So I dropped it. How does one manage to get lost on a mountainside, anyway? You just walk downhill until you hit a switchback or reach the valley. Common sense stuff. Well, she managed it. When she didn’t turn up by nightfall, I contacted the ranger station and they set out to find her. By 1am, I got tired of waiting and drove home. They called the next morning to say they’d found her in a makeshift den she’d dug beneath a deadfall. She was naked, gone completely feral, her face painted with menstrual blood. A ranger tried to wrap a blanket around her shoulders, and she bit a golf ball-sized gobbet of flesh from his shoulder. So they sedated her and took her straight to the nearest hospital. That was three years ago and she still hasn’t recovered human language. Needless to say, I acquired a taste for it. I’m up to a baker’s dozen now, not counting the one that found her way back to the car before I could drive off. But you never forget your first. Sarah will always have a special place in my heart.

@OnlyFormHolds @thepalmerworm I've not considered the dangers of game theory much so I can't pick a side but I believe she's saying it actively contradicts when she notes it, "cannot represent OR PRESERVE." ∴ When with narrow breadth it cannot preserve an =ly narrow but ordered ontology then it's a bad tool.

@thepalmerworm 1/ Unfortunately I just cannot see that. That’s not Aquinas’s standard for abstraction. For him, an abstraction is illegitimate if it contradicts the nature of the thing, not simply because it doesn’t carry the full account within itself or guide action on its own.

Good article yes and recently I had an exchange on here in which I held the line on firmly stating why Game Theory is fundamentally incompatible with the ontological understanding of man as imago Dei (thereby with inalienable rights) encoded in the Declaration. You’ll see at the bottom of these excerpts I’m sharing from this article that Vermeule is a big advocate of deploying Game Theory under a Curtis Yarvin style Unbound Executive: Excerpts (see article link below): ‘This gift for controversy was apparent in a manifesto Vermeule published in the Atlantic in March. There he recommended that conservatives abandon their longstanding originalist jurisprudence in favor of “common good constitutionalism.” The name for that project is “integralism,” and Vermeule has become its foremost defender in the United States. Integralism seeks to subordinate temporal power to spiritual power—or, more specifically, the modern state to the Catholic Church. Vermeule displays similar flexibility himself, drawing from Schmitt but adapting him to contemporary debates. Unlike Schmitt, he uses the prestige of the social sciences in order to advance his often tendentious ideological claims. Vermeule makes clear the need to replace Schmitt’s metaphysical obscurities with what he calls the “simple causal intuitions and models” of “the social sciences, including economics, law-and-economics, and political science.” It’s a sophisticated strategy of translating Schmitt’s authoritarianism into the sober findings of social-science research and the institutions of American democracy. Vermeule and Posner’s defense of rule by executive was presented largely as a sociological fait accompli in their next book, The Executive Unbound (2010). they employed the methodology of law-and-economics pioneered at the University of Chicago, where they both taught. This approach depicts politics as a series of ideal game-theory scenarios and follows the economist Milton Friedman in assuming that social theory did not need to accurately describe reality per se. Such a methodology leaves researchers free to build abstract models of human behavior based on a few axioms of supposedly transcendental rationality. The result is a narrow vision of human beings as strategic, self-interested preference-maximizers.’ - I took heat for stating how and why Game Theory is so subversive and incompatible with American Constitutional Republican Governance. Quite a few accounts couldn’t understand why I held the line against it. I hope it’s starting to dawn on people now.

@klara_sjo There is still some hope for you. You'll just have to post a bit of subtle Euroslop about how America doesn't have any culture and how freedoms are dangerous. x.com/nikitabier/sta…

They’re doing this to me tomorrow.

@bitcloud @nikitabier @forgebitz Demoralization slaves in the Golden Triangle and BRICS happened. IOW...

@nikitabier @forgebitz What happened to this?

there are like 30 dutch people following me bye bye x rev i guess

@elonmusk @doganuraldesign The expense of politics creeping out from bad actor nations that literally enslave people to post nefarious content is too high.

@doganuraldesign Good point

This CAN'T be serious!? You do realize there are global content types beyond politics, right? This is a mistake that will ruin the nature of X. Please revert it before it’s too late.

@elonmusk @LeahLibresco A mini cargo van?
