Disrespectful to our Lord.
You are bringing idols into the Temple of God.

Meanwhile,
Americans live like atheists but call themselves Christians
Someone explain this.

Kant stayed in his house for a decade
Nietzsche had a nervous breakdown
Heidegger fled to the Black Forest
Even Wittgenstein lived as a hermit for a short time.
All the best philosophers sought enlightenment, not academic tenure as a final end.

Roughly 10% of Russians are practicing Christians.
About 6% of Russians attend church weekly
About 12% attend church at least once a month.

No idea. But the term can be vauge so I just let that one go assuming there might be some historical event they had in mind.
The point on Adams is just false though.

White identity doesn’t exist through God.
The White race is a majoritarian census label.
If you are Christian out of paranoia about impending demographic shifts, you are a servant of Satan.

There should be a Vatican investigation of heresy of conservative American Catholic universities like Steubenville and Ave Maria.
Catholic=Republican at these places it seems.
Ave Maria University in Florida commissions sculpture of Jesus Christ embracing Charlie Kirk.
The school expects to receive the first bronze casting in January of 2026.

Francis was a great pope though.
If you made it through the Francis pontificate, and you were aware of his many errors, and you DID NOT go Sedevacantist, congratulations! 🎈🎉
You passed the test.
Faithful and traditional Catholics are called to Recognize & Resist errant popes, not deny them.

Buddhism would be more widespread
The Church of the East would still be a major church
Zoroastrianism would be a major world religion
Several ancient Christian schisms would be long resolved. It’s known the Ottoman Empire prevented ecumenical communication.

Virtually every convert I know who spent significant time with the SSPX or other Trad parishes and communities ended up atheist 5 years later.

Clement of Alexandira claims that Jesus was what we would today call pescatarian.
He extended this to the Apostles.
Eusebius claimed that James the author of the epistle avoided all animal products including leather clothing.

American Catholics be like:
“I am in great standing with the Church unlike the liberal heretics on Congress”
The Pope: “the death penalty is immoral”
Them: that’s his opinion
The Pope: “Climate change is real”
Them: 😰
The Pope: “How the U.S. treats immigrants is evil”

There is historical evidence that James was an ascetic that avoided animal product. Josephus refers to his unual severity of life as well.
Eating meat once a year for a religious festival is practically vegetarian.

This isn’t logically possible.
Stop and think about what a day is.
Creation can’t occur based on a solar measure of time, if the Sun is created.
Young earth creationism is irrational, even ignoring biology.

A former priest of mine killed himself this past week. Please offer prayers for his soul. I am extremely saddened to hear about this. In life he was very prayerful.
It’s a reminder that even the most pious have deep challenges.

Ignoring the OP’s obvious racism (Zelenskyy doesn’t practice Catholicism), I like that the Pope is more cordial with Zelenskyy than he was with Catholic JD Vance.

New pope has the reputation of a theological conservative but social liberal from what I’ve gathered
It’s unlikely he reverses any of Francis’s reforms, but it’s also unlikely he interprets them in a radically progressive way.
There schism avoided

They don’t.
Rather, they don’t exist.
You’re generalizing several cultures into a soulless conglomerate of “white.”
While culture doesn’t exist
The white race didn’t exist
White values don’t exist
White heritage doesn’t exist
There is no white ethnicity

“Christianity is a white man’s religion.”
While culturally maybe true in much of the US,
It’s critical to note that the majority of the most important Church Fathers we’re African:
Augustine
Origen
Athanasius
Cyprian
Pope Victor
Tertullian
Dionysius of Alexandria

Pope Francis’s parents fled Italy to escape the evils and anti-Christianity of Mussolini’s fascism.
His early career in the Church was under fascist rule in Argentina.
Pope Benedict and JP lived under fascism in their youth as well.
They were unanimous that fascism is evil.

Point 10 is idolatrous
Dear Mainline Protestants:
1. Jesus’s main mission was not social justice
2. Sound doctrine is crucial
3. Same-sex “marriage” is not ok
4. “Inclusivity” shouldn’t mean tolerating sin and accepting heresy
5. All people are dead in sin and deserve God’s judgement
6. Only by Christ can one be saved
7. People need to know and care about eternity
8. While it looks different for different people, everyone must be born-again
9. “Systemic oppression” is not the root problem with humanity, sin is
10. GOD IDENTIFIES AS HE!

The Bible contains every philosophical point of view:
Ecclesiastes: Nihilism
Amos: Marxism
Job: cynicism
James: optimism
Matthew: Stoicism
Leviticus: capitalism
Romans: fideism
John: Platonism
Proverbs: Epicureanism
Revelation: surrealism
No analytic nonsense though 🤔

1 week into the papacy:
Pope Leo reaffirms he will continue the mission of Pope Francis and Vatican II, shows public friendships with some of the most progressive prelates in the Church.
Trads: “he wore the Mozzetta! WHAT IF HE WEARS the TIARA!!! He prayed in Latin!”

Archbishop John Carroll supported separation of Church and state because it protected Catholics and other religious minorities from religious persecution.
American Catholics who talk about the U.S. as if it’s Medieval France are larpers and uncultured swine.

The Catholic response to everything going on:

What happened to George Floyd was bad

Marco Rubio identifies as Catholic.
His statements today at the Kirk memorial:
"Charlie Kirk preached the highest calling for American Christians: to produce offspring, raise a family, and instill them in American values." This is contrary to Catholic teaching

When did Catholic apologists go from:
Nuanced attempt to defend the Catholic faith
To
Attempts to propagate a reading of Catholicism that is exactly in line with American right wing politics?
I guess Scott Hahn started the trend.

My Baptist grandfather after returned from Ethiopia, real.
Him: tells me about their ceremonies in church. “I think this is much older than Roman Catholicism, it seemed really Biblical, aside from the images.”
Me: “mhmm, Chalcedon and all that…..”
Him: they don’t have a pope
