Tiktok has been banned in the US on the grounds that China could use it "to manipulate and control Americans by spreading propaganda and misinformation." In other words, China *might do* exactly what Elon Musk *has done* with X. It's a blatant double standard.

Raymond Friel OBE Just realised that I am coming at this with a Benedictine lens. St Benedict frames this in terms of doing what ‘would benefit the other’ and not myself. This is now how I understand kenosis in monastic living. It doesn’t mean being a push over or everybody’s dustbin.

Neena Jha Believe me I know to my cost, career and health what a bully looks like. You and your colleagues are the opposite of bullies. You are doing your ethical duty as doctors to raised concerns that affect patient care. If you didn’t you would be bystanders. And part of the problem.

Brian Devlin Cardinal Dolan Michele Madigan Somerville Spirit Unbounded God didn't "intervene' to preserve Trump's life. But God may have been speaking today. Did the President have ears to hear?

Well said!

It happened in Nazi Germany. People started second guessing how to fit in. Doing fascist things ahead of any decrees. Spineless

Nothing could be more appropriate

I saw the exhibition in Venice where they recreated a lifelike body from the wounds on the shroud. Piece is called Death in Venice static1.squarespace.com/static/5ea1718…

This face is more likely for a man from Galilee than the Renaissance images that seem to be collecting around your excellent thread. @Culture_Crit

Pope Francis has appointed Sister Raffaella Petrini as the first female president of the office governing the Vatican City State. Francis said he was going to make this appointment in January, but now it is official.
