ROME — Pope Francis met a group of transsexuals in the Vatican this week, the fourth such encounter just in 2022, the Vatican newspaper L’Osservatore Romano reports. “The pope’s attention to people who live this fragility with great suffering is opening up unimaginable hopes,” said Sister Geneviève Jeanningros and Father Andrea Conocchia, a priest and religious sister that offer pastoral care for the group. According to L’Osservatore Romano, the nun and the parish priest summarize the meeting, which took place after the pontiff’s weekly general audience Wednesday, as “revolution and hope,” words that express the meaning of the encounter for its participants.

God's not woke. If the Pope is, he's saying "I will not obey." That cannot end well for him. He's in the wrong place, the wrong frock. Where is B16? Why did he go?

Initially, I bristled at another Pope Francis headline. The more I thought about it I had to agree that many of these individuals must suffer a great deal. If Francis can offer hope, healing and acceptance of God's Will to them that is wonderful. If he encourages their behavior and condones an unhealthy (or unholy) lifestyle, that is a real problem.

#3 - Thank you. Gentle Ldotters should not let headlines alone lead you to make untrue assumptions. At the end of the article you would learn: "In 2020, Pope Francis denounced the 'evil' of gender theory, saying it seeks to erase the differences between men and women. Gender theory is 'dangerous,' the pope said in an interview later published as a book, because it implicitly wishes 'to destroy at the root that creative project that God wanted for each of us — diversity and distinction — by making everything homogeneous and neutral. It is an attack on difference, on God’s creativity, on man and woman. If I say this clearly, it is not to discriminate against anyone, but simply to warn everyone of the temptation of falling into the foolish project of the inhabitants of Babel: doing away with differences to seek a single language, a single form, a single people.' Francis said." I doubt anyone in this salon would disagree with these words, or the forthright way in which Pope Francis expressed the teaching of the Catholic Church. This meeting shows the world that confused people, while struggling with sinful tendencies and temptations, can find pastoral care and understanding within the Catholic faith with people willing to walk with them on their difficult journey. Like the Church's ministry to Catholic gays and lesbians, they are encouraged to lead a celibate life. The Cross of Christ offers forgiveness and redemption to every sinner, no matter how foul, no matter how many times they fall.

Sorry for the second post but the article did not say that these were flamboyant transsexuals who ride on parade floats and flaunt homosexuality. I have read many articles about people with gender dysphoria who were treated by therapists and doctors who, rather than helping them work through their illness, affirmed and encouraged them to transition. (What if that was how an anorexic was treated for their dysphoria?) After "waking up" years later and realizing what had been done that now could not be undone, suffer for the rest of their lives. A lifelong Catholic, Pope Francis is a real problem for me. As I said in my other post, If Francis offered compassion for their situation and guidance on leading a life / lifestyle, that was holy and pleasing to God, accepting the fact that He was not wrong giving them the body He did, but those who ignored and exploited their mental illness were. Now, if Francis appeared to convey a message that open homosexuality was acceptable and flamboyant "Pride Parades" were great and fun and a great way to meet little kids with a "Who am I to judge" attitude that is a very different, evil story. People in spiritual pain, in other words sinners, no matter what the reason, need compassion and guidance to change their lives and accept God's will. If their sins caused pain and suffering to others, the acknowledgement, repentance, and acceptance of the consequences of their actions would also be required. I wouldn't expect any religious leader, of any faith, to turn them away unheard.

#3 is correct. But Jesus was taken by a converted tax collector to meet with many of his friends who he hoped would also believe the truth that he had found. Jesus never changed the message to meet the sensitivity of the audience. The audience was changed by His message.

To #3: #16 makes a key point: Jesus went to eat with sinners on their home turf. Jesus never invited the sinners to a worship service in the Temple in Jerusalem. Must remember that Jesus also told the woman caught in adultery, "go and sin no more." Jesus never condoned sin. By welcoming the trannies onto his home turf, Francis has made the strongest public endorsement of their perversion.

EXCLUSIVE: The FBI seized boxes containing records covered by attorney-client privilege and potentially executive privilege during its raid of former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home, sources familiar with the investigation told Fox News, adding that the Justice Department opposed Trump lawyers' request for the appointment of an independent, special master to review the records. Sources familiar with the investigation told Fox News Saturday that the former president’s team was informed that boxes labeled A-14, A-26, A-43, A-13, A-33, and a set of documents—all seen on the final page of the FBI’s property receipt —contained information covered by attorney-client privilege.

After 14 months, hundreds of headlines, more than $1 million in taxpayer dollars and a bitter, public feud, Assembly Speaker Robin Vos on Friday fired Michael Gableman, the former Wisconsin Supreme Court justice he hired last summer to review Wisconsin’s 2020 presidential election. The speaker’s decision came just days after Gableman — and former President Donald Trump — endorsed Vos’ primary opponent, Adam Steen, whom the speaker narrowly defeated Tuesday. Speaking to reporters after unofficial results came in on election night, Vos called Gableman “an embarrassment to the state” and said he would speak with members of his caucus about the former justice’s future.

The proposal, first released in May 2021, would have required law schools to submit annual progress reports on minority enrollment to the American Bar Association. Law schools that failed to boost the enrollment of "underrepresented groups" would have been at risk of losing their accreditation.

One thing we must give Democrats credit for is their unity. Yes, certain members of the party such as Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) will occasionally diverge from the party line and oppose particularly radical pieces of legislation, but when it comes to big moments and key votes – on impeachment, for instance – Democrats circle the wagons. Contrarily, Republicans tend to fracture at the most inopportune moments, which is why it was refreshing to see virtual unanimity amongst the GOP after Monday’s outrageous raid on former President Donald Trump’s residence Mar-a-Lago. Almost all notable Republicans supported Trump after the ordeal; all except for one.

It is helpful to think of political developments as moves on the chessboard made to advance an objective. In chess, the objective is to win the game, chess being zero-sum. Politics is like that, too, though participants often claim it's not, that they're acting for the greater good, principles at the foundation of democracy, motherhood and apple pie and all that — which is true in some cases but never if Democrats are in the game. This brings me to Attorney General Garland's claim that the Mar-a-Lago home invasion wasn't a raid at all.

The post–George Floyd racial reckoning has hit the field of medicine like an earthquake. Medical education, medical research, and standards of competence have been upended by two related hypotheses: that systemic racism is responsible both for racial disparities in the demographics of the medical profession and for racial disparities in health outcomes. Questioning those hypotheses is professionally suicidal. Vast sums of public and private research funding are being redirected from basic science to political projects aimed at dismantling white supremacy. The result will be declining quality of medical care and a curtailment of scientific progress.

The story of Peloton Interactive, Inc is one that in normal circumstances Americans could be extremely proud of. The company was founded only ten short years ago in New York City, the brainchild of five ambitious and daring young entrepreneurs who were looking to reimagine ways for people to stay physically fit. They were a hybrid of traditional technology and a modern fitness company, and they jumped out to an exceptionally quick start. By the time the COVID pandemic took hold in March 2020 and changed the world forever, Peloton was poised to reap the rewards of a brilliant idea and impeccable timing.
