Can Democrats Reclaim the Christian Moral High Ground? nytimes.com/…magazine/talarico-christian-pastors-… A surprising number of pastors are running as Democrats this year, challenging Americans’ assumptions about politics and faith. By Jia Lynn Yang Sept. 21, 2026, 5:03 a.m. ET When James Talarico, the Texas Democrat running for the Senate, appeared on Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show this month, he put forward a question that many American millennials may recall from the cloth bracelets that were de rigueur among Christian youth groups in the 1990s. “I often wonder,” Talarico said, “What would Jesus do if he visited the U.S. Senate?” “I think he would tell the senators on the floor, ‘Depart from me,’” Talarico said, quoting Jesus Christ when he describes in the Sermon on the Mount how he will cast out false prophets from his heavenly kingdom. Then Talarico gained more steam. “For I was hungry and you cut my food assistance. I was sick and you kicked me off Medicaid. I was a stranger …Máis

Homily Tuesday, September 22, 2026 Proverbs 21:1-6, 10-13 “All your ways may be straight in your own eyes, but it is the Lord who weighs hearts.” Let us align our thoughts with God’s love, and the path will become straight. Luke 8:19-21 Some people said to Jesus, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside and they wish to see you.” Those who meditate on God’s love, joy, and peace allow the message, the word of God, which is love, to shine forth.

‘The Templar Rule Of Order’; ‘The Primitive Rule’; ‘Here Begins the Rule…’; pages 2-3 The original Latin Rule of Order was penned with the assistance of the young Cistercian Abbott, Bernard of Clairvaux. The rule is very similar to the modified Benedictine rule used by the Cistercian order. This makes perfect sense as the two orders were closely related and linked. The Primitive Rule of the Templars Here Begins the Rule of the Poor Knighthood of the Temple 9. You who renounce your own wills, and you others serving the sovereign king with horses and arms, for the salvation of your souls, for a fixed term, strive everywhere with pure desire to hear matins and the entire service according to canonical law and the customs of the regular masters of the Holy City of Jerusalem. 0 you venerable brothers, similarly God is with you, if you promise to despise the deceitful world in perpetual love of God, and scorn the temptations of your body: sustained by the food of God and watered and instructed …Máis
"11. If any secular knight, or any other man, wishes to leave the mass of perdition and abandon that secular life and choose your communal life, do not consent to receive him immediately, for thus said my lord St Paul: Probate spiritus si ex Deo sunt. That is to say: 'Test the soul to see if it comes from God.' Rather, if the company of the brothers is to be granted to him, let the Rule be read to him, and if he wishes to studiously obey the commandments of the Rule, and if it pleases the Master and the brothers to receive him, let him reveal his wish and desire before all the brothers assembled in chapter and let him make his request with a pure heart."
The answer silenced every critic on that street. In a single sentence, a man who looked careless revealed himself to be the most careful parent in the room. It had started simply enough. A father walking home with his young son and their dog. The boy was healthy, legs moving fine. The dog was tucked under the man's arm like a loaf of bread. To a stranger's eye, the math looked wrong. The child walks. The dog rides. That was the picture people saw, and they drew their conclusions fast, the way strangers always do. One woman stopped him. Polite at first, then less so. How could he carry the animal while the little boy worked to keep up? The man looked at her. He looked at his son. Then he explained. The dog had been badly injured the week before. A torn ligament, the vet had said. Three to four weeks of no weight on the leg, or the damage becomes permanent. The dog did not understand this. Left on the ground, she would walk on it anyway, because dogs do not negotiate with pain the way …Máis
Having been involved in adult foster care, I can truthfully testify that at least seven of the residents I helped take care of were euthanized by the hospital they died in.
In 1947, Italian nurse and postulant Pierina Gilli reported a series of apparitions of the Blessed Virgin in Montichiari, Italy. In one, Gilli said Mary appeared with three swords piercing her heart, symbolizing the suffering and spiritual failures among priests and religious. In a later vision, the swords were replaced by three roses — white, red and yellow — representing prayer, sacrifice and penance. She reported another series of apparitions in 1966 in nearby Fontanelle. In July 2024, the Vatican’s Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith granted a nihil obstat to the devotion associated with Gilli’s experiences and messages, allowing it to be promoted publicly while stopping short of declaring the reported apparitions supernatural.
