A young queer woman in Nadia Bolz-Weber's congregation traveled to her parents' church and was barred from communion. Stuart, the church drag queen, didn't skip a beat: 'We'll just have to take her communion to the airport when she gets home.' Ten people showed up at Denver International with bread, wine, and a chauffeur sign reading 'Rachel Pater, Child of God.'
When a dog's time comes, Millan takes them to their favorite place and fills the day with happiness, dancing, and celebration — not grief. If family members need to cry, they do it away from the dog. The spirit never dies. The goal is to help it depart in joy.
Iran didn't just hold a funeral — it conducted precision diplomatic messaging. Saudi Arabia got a verse about two armies meeting in battle. Turkey got a verse elevating fighters over those who sit. Hezbollah was told 'you are superior.' Hamas received a verse about men fulfilling their covenant. Every verse was a strategic signal.
70% of all global Christian missionary work originates from Americans, who are just 5% of the world's population. When tsunamis hit or civil wars erupt, the world calls America — not France, not Belgium. Kirk argues this isn't coincidence but the direct fruit of a founding rooted in biblical faith and covenantal obligation.
The 249-year run of American liberty isn't guaranteed. The founding covenant has conditions: faithfulness. Kirk warns that if America becomes a secular nation, the covenant breaks, and the liberty it produced disappears with it. Isaiah's warning — 'woe to those who call good evil and evil good' — was the founders' warning too.
You can't kill the religious impulse — you can only redirect it. Europe's climate ideology offers guilt and atonement without forgiveness, harsh rituals, and no mercy. The earth won't take punishment for your sins. You will. The human sacrifice for climate guilt is just people dying in apartments.
JD Vance told Laura Ingraham his Catholic faith motivates him to protect the dignity of 'normal Americans' — while defending policies that have imprisoned thousands of immigrants in ICE facilities without process. Susan Glasser notes that the current Pope has become the most effective rebuttal to Vance's warped theology.
While Candace was in Italy being confirmed as a Catholic by a Cardinal — a trip she had planned for a long time — Trump posted a manipulated Time magazine cover mocking her appearance. She turned off her phone, finished her confirmation, and addressed it only when she got home. The photo Trump used was one she had shared herself to discuss her battle with toxic mold illness.
From the time Charlie Kirk signed with Turning Point USA, he had repeated vivid dreams that he would die young in a tragic way tied to the organization, and that his death would wake the world up to something. He told Owens this directly and she urged him to sleep more. Reading back those conversations after his death, she says, is haunting. She believes something spiritual is guiding her investigation.
Karma has nothing to do with cosmic punishment. It is the composite of every memory your body and mind have accumulated since the amoeba — and conscious memory is less than 1% of the total. The real question is whether that accumulated memory becomes your platform or your quicksand.
