The first translation I read was Hapgood, so I'm partial to hers. I've read about 1/4 of the Donougher Les Mis and it didn't seem as poetic.

What's the best English translation of Les Misérables?

No no no, you're a Cafeteria Catholic if you use birth control and have gay friends. You're a *Traditional* Catholic if you ignore the poor, persecute immigrants, and support the death penalty. Am I understanding this right?

Barbaric. I appreciate your continued reporting on this issue, despite them limiting the access of journalists and a free, unbiased press.

I'm sorry but it's just wild we are in the middle of a government shutdown and the House Republicans are REFUSING TO SHOW UP FOR WORK so they can protect billionaire pedophiles and billionaire tax breaks.

Christ’s resurrection teaches us that no story is ever so marked by disappointment or sin that it cannot be visited by hope. No fall is definitive, no night is eternal, no wound is destined to bleed forever. 1/

I haven't felt compelled to check twitter in .... Months? IDK, I took it off my phone. Good riddance.

Hmm I took a class like this in community college. I think it was in the Communications dept, under the English program. Good idea to offer it in HS though.

Tweet from Cernovich This is indistinguishable from what you'd find on a Reddit atheist message board. Catholic Sat @CatholicSat • 22h Pope Leo XIV weighs in on Cardinal Cupich's decision to honor pro-abortion Sen Dick Durbin, saying: "I think that is very important to look at the overall work that this Senator has done during, if I'm not mistaken, 40 years of service in the United States Senate...

Tweet feom Really terrible answer from Pope Leo. God Himself prescribes the death penalty in the Bible. Is the Pope saying that God is "not pro-life"? And who exactly is advocating for "inhumane treatment of immigrants"? What sort of inhumane treatment is he referring to? Deportations?

Tweet from John-Henry Westen @JhWesten • 16h To be fair, Cardinal Robert Prevost before becoming Pope Leo XIV said the exact same thing in Nov. 2023 at the Catholic University of Santo Toribio de Mogrovejo. Which is why I said 'nightmare' when he was elected... WATCH

Sorry your religion isn’t working out for you.

My parish is having unprecedented growth.

“Someone who says I am against abortion but says I am in favor of the death penalty is not really pro-life (9-30-25)." #PopeLeoXIV #RespectLife

Would never have happened under Obama FR

Historical fiction

Okay, the jukebox in my head has moved on to "O Spirit All Embracing". Still don't know why, other than the assumption that I need to focus my energy on this part of the Trinity. Just Catholic things I guess.

Or cut off city services entirely and let them dig a well and a septic field, since they care so much about "maintaining the rural feel" or whatever argument they're using to avoid paying property tax. But I'm petty like that.

I appreciate your continued reporting, @joe-hren.bsky.social .

The state is never going to let Bloomington expand. They have already shown several times that they don't care about the remonstrance waivers. If I were in city government, I'd spend my time looking into how high they can legally raise CBU rates on county residents.

I go to a Dominican parish, why you gotta do them like this? 🤭 Jk jk I LOVE my Dominicans, they're fantastic. And I DID see one of them with his sleeves rolled up (past the wrist!) playing volleyball once.

Taxpayer-funded exclusion of students with disabilities. That's what charter schools are.

I mean...I am intrigued.

Photo of hymnal showing "Come Holy Ghost" sheet music with lyrics.

The hymn "Come Holy Ghost" has been intractably stuck in my head for days. Okay Holy Spirit, I'm listening... What??

Saving this so I can listen later. Thanks!

Do you do this work remotely? My Newman Center parish might be interested.

I teach parenting / baby safety through the hospital. Same concerns here.

I appreciate the explanation but am still confused. Think I'm missing some context here. It's alright though.

What?

He was among those listed under the "pray for the recently deceased" in my father-in-law's parish bulletin. This is in small town Indiana though, FWIW.

Marty Haugen's greatest hits at my father-in-law's small town parish tonight.

Were the blueberries too squishy?
