The elevation of Pope Leo XIV is a profound and historic occasion. Like so many around the world, I am praying for him and wishing him and the Church well as his papacy begins.

So let me get this straight, we finally get an American pope, and some of the America first crowd is mad because he cares about the poor and immigrants. Am i missing something here?

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.

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

Heather, I want to begin by saying “Thank-you for putting this fiasco in Washington DC In understandable language. I listened to this today and every Republican House member that was interviewed had a different reason for voting her off the Foreign Affairs Committee. Same with voting Schiff and his colleague off their committee.
Let’s take a look at what has been accomplished in the House the past few weeks. Ahhh......absolutely nothing of substance. Nothing that is relevant to running this coun…
Just a minor correction. I despise the guy but “DeSantis has removed all books, literature, from all educational institutions, libraries,…” isn’t a true statement. Some books have been censored, classroom books must be vetted . Let’s not stray from facts, as if we do we chance sounding hyperbolic.
According to news reports, many schools have removed or covered up all books until whenever the authorities get around to supplying a list of approved titles. Teachers and school librarians are threatened with felony charges to enforce this.
Libraries have been vetted already, and the “spurious” books removed or restricted. Vetting of classroom books is not complete as it’s a slow process. And yes, felony charges have been threatened. Still the “all books” comment is false.
I thank you for correcting me. I greatly appreciate you making sure I put out facts, because thus is what I want, and always intend, to do. The news reports I heard were both. Some books were removed, wile others were ‘covered up’ until final decisions were made.
No worries. I’ve been watching all of this closely as my anger level is at about defcon 2. The Miami Herald is a great source for what’s going on down here.
He is however wanting questionable books hidden behind a cover in libraries. https://www.washingtonpost.com/education/2023/01/31/florida-hide-books-stop-woke-manatee-county-duval-county-desantis/
Yes. Hidden behind covers until they can be reviewed by someone he selects to do the reviewing. Here again, one of his ‘sheep’. If a book or books are hidden behind covers, they might as well have been removed.
Something else I forgot to ask in my original writing. What about encyclopedias? Or even the Bible?
