RIP, John Anderson. Easily one of the greatest of all time. I snapped this photo in Smithville, Tennessee last time I was there.

Des images de dĂ©solation proviennent des grandes villes de France : j'en suis trĂšs profondĂ©ment indignĂ©. Ces scĂšnes de violence sont insupportables. Elles ont estompĂ© les justes revendications, empĂȘchent la majoritĂ© de s’exprimer, et font oublier les vrais motifs d'un malaise social profond. J'apporte mon soutien et ma compassion Ă  tous les Français, manifestants, riverains, commerçants, policiers, pompiers et gendarmes, qui ont eu Ă  subir cette violence. L’analyse ne peut pas rester superficielle. En rĂ©alitĂ©, depuis bien des annĂ©es, nous constatons que de nombreux mouvements sociaux et populaires sont gangrĂ©nĂ©s et parasitĂ©s par des groupes terroristes. Car en effet, ces bandes terrorisent les populations, terrorisent les commerçants, terrorisent les reprĂ©sentants de l’ordre. Ces individus ont compris que notre État est faible et que toute dĂ©monstration de force le fait reculer. La violence est un mode d’action. Samedi, le manque d’effectif de police et de gendarmerie, constatĂ© dans de nombreux quartiers, a rĂ©vĂ©lĂ© un grand manque d’anticipation des autoritĂ©s. Voire, ce qui serait pire, une vĂ©ritable dĂ©route des responsables politiques qui se refuseraient d’assurer la sĂ©curitĂ© des Français. Entre la peur de la confrontation, ou la volontĂ© de laisser pourrir la situation, rien n’est fait et des centaines de Français ont Ă©tĂ© laissĂ©s Ă  l’abandon. Pillages, violences envers des particuliers, incendies criminels, destructions de biens collectifs : tout cela s’est fait dans une impunitĂ© rĂ©voltante. Il faut que le pouvoir recouvre son autoritĂ© avant que ne surviennent de pires situations. Pour cela, il faut donner aux forces de l’ordre et aux magistrats la capacitĂ© de traiter ces individus comme des terroristes. Des mesures exemplaires, constantes dans le temps, doivent s’appliquer Ă  ces groupes afin de dissuader quiconque de se joindre Ă  eux. Il faut que les manifestations puissent se dĂ©rouler sans que cela ne se termine dans ce chaos. Le pouvoir se lĂ©gitime par l’autoritĂ© qu’il manifeste et l’ordre qu’il fait rĂ©gner. À l’approche des 800 ans du sacre de saint Louis, je prie pour la France et lui consacre toute mon attention.

“I do not think there are many among bishops that will be saved, but many more that perish.” - St. John Chrysostom
Our local bishop is banning the St Michael prayer from the end of Mass. His article, in the local Catholic paper, explains that in order to celebrate the liturgy “in accordance with the mind of the Church” priests need to “catechize the people of God as we move away from additional prayers recited together immediately before, during, and immediately after Mass.”

This is child abuse. Society is conducting an open experiment on INFANTS, who cannot consent to being a product in a commercial surrogacy arrangement. Babies cannot consent to being bought and sold. Babies are not products or props.
This Commissioning Father mocks a newborn as he roots to latch and breastfeed. We think this is supposed to be funny? We’re not laughing.

There is nothing more primal than a newborn searching for their mother's breast. Sometimes babies lose their mother due to tragedy, and we mourn. Manufacturing motherless so two men can "make a family" is an injustice.

‘Picking up after kids’ and you leave three items in an impeccably clean house? My brother, you need every pillow and blanket on the floor, toys strewn everywhere so you can hardly walk, random cheerio land mines, the works. You clean that, three times a day every day and we’ll talk.

Dear @FiberFirstUSA. Please turn the Internet back on. I’d call or email but that apparently is not an option.

You know who abhorred the veneration of relics in ancient times? Pagans. Pagans as in Julian the Apostate: the emperor who tried to revive paganism after the conversion of the Empire. Protestants are making the same case as the pagans, and don’t even realize it.
This is not Christianity.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This video shows the skull of Saint Agatha, a 3rd-century Christian martyr, being placed in her reliquary in Catania for the 900th anniversary of her relics' return. Veneration of relics is a long-established practice of the Catholic Church, Christianity's largest branch. facebook.com/EWTNVatican/po
