CNA/CWR: Following Trump’s halt to US immigration, bishops call for solidarity
“In this moment, our common humanity is apparent more now than ever. The virus is merciless in its preying upon human life; it knows no borders or nationality,” read an April 23 statement issued by Archbishop José Gomez of Los Angeles, president of US bishops’ conference; Auxiliary Bishop Mario Dorsonville of Washington, chairman of the USCCB’s Committee on Migration; and Bishop Jaime Soto of Sacramento, chair of the Catholic Legal Immigration Network.
“The President’s action threatens instead to fuel polarization and animosity. While we welcome efforts to ensure that all Americans are recognized for the dignity of their work, the global crisis caused by COVID-19 demands unity and the creativity of love, not more division and the indifference of a throw-away mentality.”

More Disappointing Words from Cardinal Ouellet
What the Latin churches need is not continuing institution-guarding in the name of "openness" and "fempowerment." What is needed is genuine reform before there is a total collapse of those churches as a "public institution." What is needed is a reconsideration of seminaries, especially during a time of shrinking diocesan budgets and low numbers of potential vocations. Women are not needed in seminary formation; those who are considering holy orders should be working in a parish during their formation, and here they can be scrutinized as well as learning how to relate to others. If there is a problem with "human" or "integral" development for Latin seminarians, it is a problem that women are not going to solve, nor by academics or bureaucrats, for that matter. Not only that but it is clericalism for clerics to think that they are the only judges of what is necessary for human development, and unfortunately many of them are getting advice from those who wish to advance a certain agenda against tradition and the Divine Law. In fact, many of these clerics are the wrong sort of men to whom the formation of men as men should be entrusted.
The Latin seminary is perhaps the last development of the Latin churches as an institutionalized existence during a period of urbanization which has exceeded scale and limit. In the future it is probably not sustainable in many areas, and whether it is even ideal for regions marked by diversity of peoples and cultures is debatable.
Really really related:
CNA/CWR: 2020 priest ordination class is slightly smaller, more diverse, survey finds
Just wait until next year: probably numbers will continue to decline. More “diversity” means that the Latin churches are unable to attract vocations from white Americans in diverse blue urban mass population centers. There is a reason for that.

To Love Others
Without a reference to human nature, and the specific inclination to live in community as essential for its flourishing, the prescriptive for civic decline can fall on deaf ears.
The reality of our social breakdown seemed to surround us on all sides. Our cities, towns, and neighborhoods have been built in ways that do not appear as though they were designed for human life and flourishing. We have even constructed tall fences around our homes, along with an abundance of trees to surround us in a sort of military fortress. Front porches were once an essential feature of homes, so as to incline us towards fulfilling our vocation as neighbors, and good stewards of those places where we live. These have given way to the back patio, that place of refuge which has conditioned citizens to seek to be removed from others, detached as a further means for celebrating our individual liberty. How many of us actually know the people who live on our street, especially those right next door?
Welcome to suburbia. A look at the social and political factors at work behind the destruction of community would probably be too much for a short internet essay, but they do merit an examination so that Christians know what the causes were and from which they need to be on guard.
[M]uch of the literature that accurately describes the decline of community in American civic life tends to lack a deeper explanation as to why human beings are in need of association at an ontological or metaphysical level.
The author doesn't develop this in the direction of communion ecclesiology and personhood as relation right away, but in the direction of apprenticeship in love [agape]. Later he talks about imitating God and writes "Human sociality is meant to be an imitation of the Trinitarian Sociality"

The First Wave of English Nationalism?
- the paper itself by George Beech.
Introduction: The creation of a new ethnic identity of the English people was one of the most important developments of the later Anglo-Saxon period from the ninth to the eleventh centuries. Five centuries earlier, there had been no political or linguistic unity among the different peoples of German/Danish origin who had settled in the country and who spoke different dialects and were ruled by a handful of small tribal kingdoms. Then, from the reign of King Alfred onwards, Scandinavian invasions and the rise of dynasty of Wessex gradually led to the emergence of a single kingdom controlling most of the land and population, and to the belief that the English constituted a single community bound together by common descent, cultural tradition, language, church and loyalty to the king. In the later stages of this development, around 1000 AD, a new name, Engla land, came to be attached to the kingdom of the English and it has lasted until the present day as one of the most famous and long-lived the later country tenth names in European history.
Heimat
The genius of Heimat‘s storytelling is that Eduard’s becoming a Nazi functionary is never explained. He just turns up one day wearing an armband and a party uniform, like it’s the most normal thing in the world. That’s how most others treat him. You get it: there wasn’t any real moral struggle for Eduard in this choice. It was just what people did, becoming Nazis — and for him, it finally gives him respectability and a sense of mission, after having spent the postwar years struggling to find a place for himself. Eduard’s mother is quietly against the Nazis, but doesn’t say anything. All too human.We have an ongoing crisis of meaning; the potential for that to be exploited by those with power to take advantage of the lost is there, and those on the left have already used it to their advantage. (Look at those who participate in Antifa.) We must provide a different vision, one centered on authentic communal life and all that entails, and we must live it, even if we have to oppose those who supposedly share the same religion. We [men] cannot water down our principles in order to have their acceptance or approval.
Defend community and liberty.

Originalism
The Honesty of Originalism by James R. Rogers
The central case for legal originalism is commonsensical and compelling: Read legal texts as we read everything else—honestly. Think of it as an application of the Golden Rule: Read others as you would like to be read yourself, including legal texts. And if you don’t like what you read in a legal text when you’ve read it honestly, the solution is not then to read the text dishonestly, the solution is to advocate changing the legal text.
So, contra F.H. Buckley, it is not the case that “if originalism commends itself, then, it must be because the Framers’ Constitution is morally superior to that of today’s Constitution.” You don’t read the letter from Aunt Jenny honestly only if what she wrote is morally superior to anything else she might have written. You read it honestly and then disagree with her if you find what she’s written to be morally wanting. (We might even advocate to Aunt Jenny that she amend her letter: “That’s not true; you take that back!”)
And, contra Adrian Vermeule, reading texts honestly—including legal texts—is not a “political and rhetorical” strategy based on fleeting political “utility.” If one doesn’t believe that the current Constitution promotes society’s “common good” if read honestly, then propose a different constitution that would achieve the common good as one sees it, and we can debate the proposal. But don’t advocate reading the current Constitution dishonestly to achieve purposes any honest reader would admit the text doesn’t support.

Had to balance these with something more positive.
There is a theme of women rejecting such strict forms of Judaism to find freedom or to find "true love" because their arranged marriages turned out so badly. Does their dissatisfaction with their husbands (whether because of real flaws or because they do not rank high enough in the SSH) explain their discontent, resentment, and radicalism? "The pursuit of indignation."
What Is the Solution?
Couples wedding in the Roman Catholic Church essentially make the same pledge to one another. According to the Rite of Marriage (#25) the customary text in English is:[4]
I, ____, take you, ____, to be my (husband/wife). I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health. I will love you and honour you all the days of my life.In the United States, Catholic wedding vows may also take the following form:[4]
I, ____, take you, ____, to be my lawfully wedded(husband/wife), to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do us part.The priest will then say aloud "You have declared your consent before the Church. May the Lord in his goodness strengthen your consent and fill you both with his blessings. What God has joined, men must not divide. Amen."[5]

An Explanation for the "Western" Sound?
Is the following true of the architectural styles that succeeded the Gothic?
In contrast, Gothic architecture has a distinct acoustic difference. The majority of the wall surface in a large Gothic church is leaded glass. These big expanses of glass are smooth and hard, but they are not unyielding. High-pitched sounds will reflect off them readily, but low-pitched sounds will actually shake them, and this shaking motion absorbs the energy out of the sound. Furthermore, many of the big north-European churches that were famous centers of musicianship had wood, rather than stone, vaulting, and the thin wood ceiling paneling was likewise shakable and absorbent to low pitches. Acoustic measurements show that large Gothic churches have a notable drop off in reverberance in the bass range.
Has this "typical" sound influenced the way schola and choir directors have recruited and organized the voices for their groups, so that this is the sound they wish to mimic or present?
This is significant for the development of western church music. The great composers of the baroque period were mostly employed at huge Gothic churches, and they wrote music tailored to those spaces. The continuous modulation and contrapuntal bass lines in the music of J.S. Bach, for instance, depends upon an acoustic in which the bass decays rapidly. Those bass lines are played on immensely loud organ pipes, and were they to reverberate for several seconds, the music would become muddy and the harmonic modulation would be irritating. The long reverberation in the high frequencies is not a problem, however, because high harmonics are consonant with all notes of a scale. A ringing bell-like descant of high reverberance gives a pleasing sparkle to baroque music without muddying the forward motion.
Would Western chant and singing sound "better" in an Orthodox temple or in the oldest Roman churches, as the lower male voices can be heard more clearly? There are East European temples that are built of wood rather than stone--do these preserve the "Byzantine" sound, and how are they able to do so, in a way that the bass is not preserved in Western temples that have wood? (Is it merely the lack of large [stained-glass] windows?)
It would seem that there should be rules of architecture and building composition so that the bass is preserved, so that there is the presence of masculine voices during the liturgy is emphasized; otherwise there may be consequences on the participation of men during the liturgy, even if they happen at a subconscious level. (And for the West, we should also remember that the actual participation of the majority of the laity in the liturgy was limited as they did not understand Latin.)

No Response from the US Team?
No Yankee yell? (They can't appropriate the Rebel yell.) The United States (and Western Europeans) really need to recover or recreate their war chants. Military drills of the modern nation-state are a poor substitute, and one can't really do them on the playing field of a stadium anyways, even if one had a band. Would the recovery of European war chants entail embracing a form of neo-paganism which is at odds with Christian civilization? Maybe. Did the Byzantine armies have any sort of war cries in addition to their hymns and prayers?
