… on his trip to Egypt. Pray, not merely for his protection (he himself seems to be fearless in his trust in God’s protection) but particular for the success of his trip in advancing the kingdom of God. The Holy Father is not playing defense or wasting any time maundering over the retreat of Christendom. He is playing offense and remembering the promise given him: The gates of hell shall not prevail against the Church. God love him! Read more
The Administration in its effort to gin up xenophobic fear and malice toward people with brown skin, started a “criminal alien” hotline (1-855-48-VOICE) where people could call in and tell tales of the enemy bacilli infecting our great white nation. Presumably that includes the babies and children threatening to kill us all. Instantly, the hotline has been flooded with calls about extraterrestial attacks. Consistently, the best thing Trump does for America is fail. Read more
Two narcissistic sociopaths with no regard for the lives of others hold the fate of millions of innocent people in their hands. Trump, recall, is a man who analyzes the world in terms of ratings. He actually boastingly compared his ratings to 9/11, making clear his sociopathy. He used the suffering of a widow he had made a widow as a platform for his own self-aggrandizement and actually boasted during his SOTU about the length of the applause. He is... Read more

…when a bench of judges is scandalized by the merciless cruelty and lust for vengeance of an Administration whose loudest champions are self-proclaimed real Christians. I watched last week as one Christian after another on FB cheered for meting out draconian punishments to innocents who made minor blunder or broke trivial rules. When a judge is saying “Whoa! Dial it back!” and Christians are calling for maximum legal vengeance against people for forgetting some triviality, the witness of Christians to... Read more

An engineer in a lab coat posing as a philosopher does a pop sci show where he asks, “Should we have policies that penalize people for having extra kids in the developed world?” The term for “extra kids” a few decades back was “nutzlose Fresser” or “useless eaters”. Curiously, those who go about deciding who the “extras” are never number themselves in the ranks of excess humanity, perhaps because they never give any indication of having an excess of humanity....

Food and water were re-defined as “extraordinary care” and she was denied them and left to die. Prolife Christians very understandably spoke out against this. Last year, a man named Terrill Thomas was being held in the jail of right wing culture war folk hero David Clarke. His jailers chose to cut off his water supply for a week and he died, exactly like Terri Schiavo, of agonizing thirst–except that he was not brain-damaged and felt every second of it.... Read more
