There used to be a spirit of anti-war sentiment in America. It has long since been cast off in favor of bloodlust and empire. Where are the rallies for peace? non-existent. Shame on you and shame on all of us. This is genocide and bloodlust regardless of what Hamas did on October 7th and since...

Dr. Gabor Maté on Israel/Palestine - October 28, 2023 Dr. Gabor Mate is probably one of the most inspiring voices on compassion, regardless of how hard and unsettling that path is to walk, out there today. Someone who actually understands compassion from all sides as a Jew as a Holocaust...

Are you suggesting that Palestinian children (Christian and Muslim alike) haven't and aren't being killed by IDF bombs? You can disagree with the media source but stop whitewashing what is occurring daily right now in Gaza by BOTH sides. People like the video(s) in the OP (which I find QUITE...

Total Devastation: Images of survivors picking through the rubble of the Saint Porphyrius Church in Gaza, the world's 3rd oldest Christian building. Four Israeli missiles hit the building tonight. Church authorities estimate there are already 150 dead. My apologies. I got duped by fake news...

If you could provide links here in this or a similar thread it would be much appreciated. I often find myself assuming I have links to all the reasonably decent links on the web for such liturgics (often not centrally organized on my laptop) and would enjoy having a more complete list. Some...

As Father Matt said, do what others around you are doing. In general, we stand when praying in church (with a host of exceptions and caveats depending on parish practice, diocese and time of the year). Watch the laity and the priest. Sometimes the priest will motion for the laity to sit during...

It might benefit the discussion if you provided a link to the source material for people to listen to. Just a thought.

If you study the history of Walt Disney himself then you quickly conclude that he was anything but wholesome.

Seems like a relevant thread to ask. I just discovered that Fr. Benedict Churchill was nominated to become bishop of New England for the OCA. The position has been vacant for 2-3yrs since AB. Nikhon reposed (Memory Eternal). Where does Fr. Benedict land on the liberal/conservative spectrum...

There is hope for reunification yet! :D
