Soil is essential for life on Earth. It is the foundation of agriculture, healthy ecosystems and biodiversity, and stores more carbon than the atmosphere and all our forests combined.

Everything Francis Touches is Tainted

150 years after the proclamation of St Joseph as Patron of the Catholic Church, I would like to share some personal reflections on this extraordinary figure, so close to our own human experience.https://t.co/GOQ2CVmOm4

— Pope Francis (@Pontifex) December 8, 2020

More development of the Latin cult around St. Joseph. What would the Bolandists think of this a priori creation of St. Joseph's biograph? Modern projection back into the past?

Patris Corde

Joseph found happiness not in mere self-sacrifice but in self-gift. In him, we never see frustration but only trust. His patient silence was the prelude to concrete expressions of trust. Our world today needs fathers. It has no use for tyrants who would domineer others as a means of compensating for their own needs. It rejects those who confuse authority with authoritarianism, service with servility, discussion with oppression, charity with a welfare mentality, power with destruction.

Bergoglio's own personal issues? No mention of the real problem in probably the majority of "first-world" countries, particularly the Anglosphere: weak men who aren't fathers at all.

A Cappella Romana Christmas Special

Let Him Go

It is a reunion movie for Pa and Ma Kent (Kevin Costner and Diane Lane). When I first watched it, Let Him Go seemed like a Western set in the late 50s or early 60s; it turns out the novel upon which it is based is classified in the genre of "neo-Western." The movie is a refreshing change, as it is free from wokeness. Some may think that it is a fempowerment movie, focusing on the words and actions of Diane Lane's character. But I think it can be argued that this Western is a tragedy, showing the consequences of what happens when a strong (and virtuous) patriarch/husband is absent from two families, not just one. I haven't read the original novel, so I don't know if thi sis what the author intended, but there is plenty within the dialogue between the two main characters to support this. Definitely one of the few current Hollywood products worth watching.



If I have any complaints, it is that Kevin Costner's character shows an undue concern for having a gun with him that seems anachronistic. Did the author of the novel grow up and live in an area with gun carry restrictions? Apparently he grew up in North Dakota, but lives in Wisconsin?

A reminder... this is relevant only to the Latins and the Latinized, just like the proclamation of St. Joseph as patron of the Church Universal. This won't fix what ails the patriarchate of Rome.

Stop Funding the NRA

Remember that time I voted against the concealed carry reciprocity bill because it had gun control in it? Lots of sincere pro-gun folks were mad at me, & NRA ran robocalls against me. I warned we would eventually get only the gun control provision, Fix-NICS. Guess what happened.
