In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, this week we start our preparation for the Great and Holy Lent with the parable of the Publican and the Pharisee. In this parable, we are told about two men that are praying. The one man, the Pharisee, tells God about all the good things in his life and raises himself above other men. The other man, the Publican, continuously asks for God’s mercy in his prayer. Our Lord then asks which of these men is justified after...

Berlin-based climate activist Karin Louise Hermes has left the climate movement because she couldnÂ’t deal with the white people anymore. She felt like her concerns as a person of colour, about the racist impact of climate change, were not adequately represented or respected. What this means is that identity politics is eating itself. WeÂ’ve heard tell about the climate crisis facing our world. The rhetoric goes that weÂ’ve got maybe 12 years to turn this ship around before we all suffer something akin to the fate of the dinosaurs and cause our own extinction. Greta Thunberg practically dropped out of...

Pitching an alternate reality, the seven House impeachment managers appeared on CNN with Anderson Cooper where they claimed that President Trump hasn’t really been acquitted because it wasn’t a “fair trial.” “Well, and back to the acquittal part of this, I would consider that fake news, because we did not have a fair trial,” Florida Rep. Val Demings complained.

“Reform” of the Roman Curia: An Attempt to Make the Conciliar Revolution “Irreversible” Anticipation and Concern Anticipation is growing that A.D. 2020 could be the year in which the long-awaited Apostolic Constitution concerning the “reform” of the Roman Curia[1] is finally released. During his 2019 Christmas Address to the Roman Curia (more on this later), Pope Francis made reference to “the new Apostolic Constitution being prepared”, entitled Praedicate Evangelium (Preach the Gospel), a document which has been in the works for several years and whose contents raise a number of concerns.Vatican correspondent Edward Pentin reported for the National Catholic Register...

Sanders: We released 'substantive' part of all medical records © Greg Nash Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), a leading Democratic presidential candidate who suffered a heart attack last year, said Sunday his campaign has released the "substantive" part of his medical records. "We have released as much documentation as any other candidate," Sanders said on NBC's "Meet the Press," when questioned on the release of his records. "No other candidates had a heart attack," NBC's Chuck Todd followed up, noting Sanders pledged in September to release his records before a vote was cast. He made the pledge about a month before...

Snoop Dogg said Saturday he wasn't threatening CBS News anchor Gayle King over a recent interview in which she broached the Kobe Bryant rape case following his death last week.

"When I said what I said, I spoke for the people who felt like Gayle was very disrespectful towards Kobe Bryant and his family," Snoop Dogg, whose real name is Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr., said in a video on Instagram on Saturday.

62 percent of New Hampshire Democrats would prefer that the Earth is struck by a giant meteor, that wipes out the entire human race, rather than see President Donald Trump win reelection in November, a shocking new poll has revealed.

There was earlier controversy as to whether the asteroid would hit, but now scientists say it won't hit. Previously a 1-40 chance of colliding.

Joy Reid vouching for the veracity of a Donald Trump attack ad? Yup, it actually happened today! Reid seems supremely skeptical that socialist Bernie Sanders can beat President Trump. On her MSNBC show today, Reid told Sanders's campaign manager Faiz Shakir that the ads the Trump campaign would run against Sanders should he be the nominee would be "true" and "actual." She specifically mentioned video of Bernie praising Castro and "Russia" [sic, presumably meant the Soviet Union.] Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

The ad was tweeted by the candidate, posted on YouTube, and shared here and here on Facebook. “America demanded change,” a narrator says at the start. “And change is what we got.” It then shows a series of clips and images that illustrate hot-button issues including immigration, the border wall, gun violence, and Trump’s relationships with North Korea’s Kim Jong Un and Russia’s Vladimir Putin. AFP used reverse image searches of screenshots of the ad to gather information about the material it contains. Most of it is from Trump’s presidency, but a brief part of the immigration-related footage -- showing...

Experts have blamed a form of systemic inflammatory response syndrome called "cytokine storm" for killing some novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV)-infected patients who were not very sick in the early stage of infection but eventually died of multiple organ failure, according to Chinese media reports. The epidemic, which started mid-December in Wuhan, in China's Hubei Province, had claimed more than 800 lives in China as of Feb. 8, including Li Wenliang (李文亮), a 34-year-old ophthalmologist at Wuhan Central Hospital who tried to issue the first warning about the deadly coronavirus outbreak late last year but was silenced by the Chinese authorities. While...
