- Novel idea: a nation belongs to its citizens.
- "Why I didn't convert to Eastern Orthodoxy." My trip through it. That said, we have a lot to learn from them: grassroots traditionalism, the right kind of tribalism and congregationalism that can be a hedge against things like the ill-fated space-age modernization of Vatican II (which, believe it or not, some Orthodox are playing with). As I like to say, everything in church polity is negotiable except the papacy and the episcopate, so Catholic/Orthodox dialogue is possible and desirable. Our shared way forward: a loose communion of local churches run by custom... that includes the Pope and his share in the church's charism of infallibility. Related: When the other shoe drops.
- If society is functioning, kids from broken homes are less damaged. It's not, and hasn't been for a long time, which is why millennials are pathological.
- From MCJ: You do not want to live in a Muslim country.
- Columbus [Indiana] Police said they’ve never had anything like it – three churches vandalized in the same night.
- UK: More than 1,400 children were sexually abused over a 16-year period by gangs of paedophiles after police and council bosses turned a blind eye for fear of being labelled racist, a damning report has concluded. Fr. Longenecker: Why secular humanism can't cope with Islam.
- Flying the ISIS flag.
- Talking sense about selfies: Today’s youth take a lot of pictures of themselves not because they’re different but because they can.
Catholic integralism is the true seamless garment.
Don't apologize for things you didn't do, to people who don't believe in forgiveness or redemption.
