A devout seminary graduate, trusted by a top bishop. His friend, a theologian and choirman. Both arrested on absurd charges, tortured, and now face 20 years. Their crime? Being Orthodox men of Ukrainian heritage who questioned the war. (1/6)

Goed geschreven en inhoudelijk volkomen overtuigend deze bijdrage in Trouw.

Met verwijzing naar onder andere België, Duitsland en Frankrijk luidt de terechte conclusie dat academische kwaliteit niet begint bij Engels maar bij het vermogen om in de eigen taal precies te denken.

In a stunning breach of diplomatic norms, Trump's ambassador to the Holy See issued a statement that misrepresented Pope Leo’s remarks on Venezuela in order to defend the U.S. military invasion.

Such a misrepresentation is unprecedented in the history of formal relations between the two governments

Brian Burch’s public spin on Pope Leo XIV’s Venezuela remarks marks a striking departure from four decades of candor in U.S.–Vatican relations.

Exactly- you would expect a bishop to have at least a basic understanding of the early Christian notion of koinonia.

Or at the very least to preach in the spirit thereof ….
The Roman Catholic Church actually promotes collectivism (not communism) and adamantly opposes the rugged individualism that Bishop Robert Barron worships. Ours is a communitarian faith. Barron is a bad faith actor, in multiple ways.

One Russian independent media outlet spoke with 14 residents in Valdai, where supposedly almost 100 drones tried to attack Putin's palace.

None heard anything, nor had any text alerts about drone danger.

How many Muslims a country has or how it treats Muslims has nothing to do with nuclear responsibility.

Nuclear armed countries with higher percentages of Muslims than the UK or France: Russia, India, Israel, and esp Pakistan.

Vance is anti-Europe because he thinks it's not white enough. That's it.
JD Vance argues that having Muslims makes the UK and France too dangerous to have nukes, which will be great for US relations with India and Pakistan.

So if you’re keeping track, the Trump administration’s position on nuclear arms is:
North Korea: cool, nonthreatening
France and UK: bad, dangerous
A case where the quote is even worse in context than out of context. JD is scaremongering about “Islamists” winning elections in the UK/France and then somehow militarily threatening the US. Saying we should hold Europeans and Africans to different moral standards but anti-wokely.

Pärt’s Cantus in Memory of Benjamin Britten somehow -no, extremely powerfully - expresses the feelings at the end of this year.
