Christian leaders: only an everyday commitment to speaking the truth in love can generate this kind of extraordinary witness for when the dreadful day arrives

I've created a calculator that gives you the right answer 80% of the time and I believe it will change the world

Police in Airdrie, Alberta (just north of Calgary) say this driver hit a 17-year-old girl in a marked crosswalk, got out of the vehicle, and appeared to get upset at the teenager before driving away.

They released this video and are now trying to identify the driver.

Actually, the Dáil bike shed didn't represent a waste of money. Debate me, bro.

More than anything, the massive subsidy to fast food chains has a real "it's 2007 again" feel to it

Brian Brock's literally monumental Joining Creation's Praise, a theological examination of what it means to be a creature, founded on a remarkably creative reading of Genesis 1-11.

My physical copy finally arrived. All 1162 pages. I have never been more excited in all my life to get a new theological text. See you guys in a month.

Legit skills here, but how does she handle a BMX?

She could talk for "a very very long time" about the abuses she and her companions suffered but we have to take that on trust because all she wants to talk about is the plight of the Palestinian people.

An absolute model for fighting for justice.

This clip has been circulating a lot and look I don't want to be critical, it's great that it's inspiring people.

BUT. There is one thing he says that's inaccurate and it's important that people understand the reality.

He says that their trade union didn't support them. That's not true.

A reminder that Prof. David Kertzer will deliver the Corish Lecture tomorrow evening in Maynooth. Register below.

The Route map of the long awaited (first line??) of the Dublin metro.

Her: I bet he's thinking about other girls.

This is a key point: evangelicals in the US are not villains in this piece because their religious commitments tie them into the brutality. They are particularly tragic because they've abandoned their religious commitments to participate in the brutality.

We are still in Lebanon, right?

Religious pacifist here, fully ok with the Irish government increasing its spend to ensure basic services of our peacekeeping defense force is restored and then maintained

Hidden inside this absurd plan is the destruction of the Northern Irish Peace process.

The UK is in a very very precarious place.

When the trip is less than 5km, why don't you cycle? Why aren't you in the library every week? Before you go to sleep, do a little Examen every night. Spend time with children.

Wife-unit offering the most devastating take possible as a movie just ends: "This might have made a good short novel. Aimed at children."

I've resisted the term "Ulsterification" cos it implies that NI's political culture is somehow un-British, rather than an entirely British weaponisation of Britishness, enabled and enacted by British interests.

But the PSNI boomeranging back to London to round up protesters is really something.

If they do this to the world's most renowned activist, what do they do to people we will never hear of? The EU must cut all ties with the government who orchestrates this depravity.

An "ICE" officer jumps out of a car aiming his lethal weapon without any cause before proceeding to engage a family with what people in more stable democracies would recognize as unconscionable levels of threat, menace, and disrespect.

I feel the need to reassure my American friends that there is simply nothing normal about this. It's brutal. If an Irish officer ever approached someone like this, the scandal would be so great, the Minister for Justice would basically resign. Our cops don't even normally have guns.

Kerry town that banned disposable coffee cups sees project falter amid Government U-turn Two projects in Dublin, inspired by Killarney Coffee Cup Project, now in doubt

This is a fascinating case where the business owners are being creative and ethical serious but they need a national policy to support them but the unmentionable basic problem is that consumers don't care.

Much to consider:

Handing ourselves the L before anyone else can?

Matthew 15:29-31: And great crowds came to him, bringing with them the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute, and many others, and they put them at his feet, and he healed them after verifying their citizenship status.

They are going to talk about political power though, so...

You might wonder if Micro-Giant, so social and friendly, is related to me. But I just heard him say, "I want to do sooo much homework!"

Bluesky is like if the world was divided into people who are silly and the literal silly police

Can’t wait for Taylor Swift to regeneration the Archbishop of Canterbury on Friday

MetroLink given green light by An Coimisiún Pleanála Permission has been granted for Dublin's long-awaited MetroLink project linking the city centre to the airport.

Ireland announces it would like to catch up with the 21st century. Amazing news, I barely hoped it would actually happen
