Hans and wife Jackie who worked tirelessly together for women's true inclusion in the RC Church

'The openness of women to the ordained ministry arises from within the sacrament of baptism itself. The cry for social equality may have woken us up. The truth of equality in Christ's covenant has always been there.' - Hans (John) Wijngaard As quoted in @cwocampaign.bsky.social newsletter

The number of people who could be shielded in sanctuary churches is vanishingly small, so this decision cannot be about the numbers. It’s about the spiritual power of sanctuary as a practice. That power comes from both theological sources and sociological ones

3/β€œenvironmental degradation. Native Americans on the Trail of Tears felt it; refugees from Gaza no doubt feel it. It is a complex mixture of grief, a feeling of exile and estrangement, and an incurable homesickness for the feeling of belonging to the soil living beneath your feet.”

DOGE Is Xitter Files for Government - emptywheel Until someone confesses differently, we need to treat Elon Musk's role in DOGE as exclusively one of propaganda, spinning false tales of corruption from decontextualized files Musk doesn't understand.

ACTION: Sign the petition and tell the UK government to protect our pollinators. The UK’s pollinator numbers are dropping heavily - we need the UK government to step in and protect them.

There’s been a 60% decline in insects over the past 20 years in the UK and yet insect pollination is vital to our beautiful biodiversity and our food chain.

France has banned pesticides from towns and cities. Tell the UK government to protect our pollinators.

Ethnic Cleansing under UNSC 780
Violation of Geneva Convention IV Art 49

Numerous Human Rights obligations
