but sad to say if it weren't for his manner of death he would be remembered as a conspiracy theorist with a fascinating detour as a missionary in Japan

there's still something to be said for a saint being a martyr dying as a consequence of the world they played a small part in creating and only being redeemed by a heroic act of self-sacrifice

agents of the Catholicism Industry will also lose their shit at you if you observe Kolbe's well-documented statements on this

We're so back!

Encountering multiple usages of the phrase "operation epic distraction" as if it were a devastating own might be my signal to log back off

James Talarico:
He wears HIS religion on his sleeve
His grandfather, a Baptist Preacher

SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE IS MANDATORY!! 💯💯💯

This collection of Frei Betto's Prison Letters infinitely surpasses his "Fidel and Religion" -- the raw radical faith and Christian testimony is 10 times better than incredibly boring questions on the "relationship between Marxism and Christiantiy".

Two line graphs side-by-side illustrate linguistic sentiment shifts from 1860 to 1980. Graph (a) "Lean becomes more positive": Shows the word "lean" undergoing amelioration. Its sentiment score rises over time as it becomes more semantically similar to "muscular" and less similar to "weak." Graph (b) "Pathetic becomes more negative": Shows the word "pathetic" undergoing pejoration. Its sentiment score declines as it becomes more semantically similar to "weak" and less similar to "passionate." Both graphs use red lines for sentiment and blue lines (solid and dashed) to represent semantic similarity to related words.

This article finds that 5% of sentiment-bearing words switched polarity between 1850 and 2000. Examples include "lean" (weak > masculine) and "pathetic" (passionate > weak).

Oof. I just read your post in the most uncharitable, pedantic way possible, and I gotta tell ya: it's not looking good for you.

Don’t you see this is the ninth war Trump has ended by ending Eye-ran’s war on America and Our Greatest Ally?

Eternal Bush era

Of course it’s AI slop

More and more I feel that theologians aren’t allowed to have our stupid grudges anymore until we realize that Online Catholicism — and and increasingly prominent cadre of scholars — has its own special industry devoted to rejecting all of the 20th century’s achievements.

Yo anything big happen while I was away
