We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾‍♀️.

Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!

It’s about damn time. AOC is a hero. She’s one of the best out there, fighting daily against Trump’s fascist bullshit.

President Biden is a man of deep faith and extraordinary resilience. Chasten and I are keeping him, and the entire Biden family, in our prayers for strength and healing.

sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.

The fact that the ERA has not been fully ratified to date is testament to the patriarchal condemnation of women and our LGBTQ kin to second class citizenry.

Linda Mitchell, KCMO's avatar

Totes, Rowshan. And the fact is that the Catholic bishops going apes*t right now about the possibility that ERA could actually be ratified should be a red flag.

Jon Margolis's avatar

Not just a red flag, but also a disgrace to all of the Catholics who truly care about other people—all other people.

In other words, all Catholics who actually try to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ. Makes one wonder what Bible the bishops are reading.

Keith Wheelock's avatar

Dave There is only a vague random correlation between the teachings of Jesus Christ and the actions and beliefs of many bishops. The Gospels seldom relate to the dictums of the Vatican.

I taught the New Testament for nearly two decades. I suggest that the hierarchy of the Catholic Church read it and follow its guidelines.

Nancy Fleming's avatar

Keith and Dave, in my abbreviated experience with the Catholic church, I never heard any mention of the Bible. Their focus is on producing as many infants as possible, to grow up and fill their coffers. After all, someone has to pay for their infrastructure.

Not just the infrastructure and huge property holdings in highly valuable areas of major cities around the world, the Archdiocese of Boston, a few years ago, contributed $750,000 to an anti-legalization campaign in MA that passed overwhelmingly. If they've got that kind of money to blow, mitigating poverty should be a piece of cake.
