Lucifer's pride turned him into creation's first idolater (Ezekiel 28:17). The audacity to think that he could be like God. The original sin of man (Genesis 3:5, CCC 398).

My favorite stained glass image of St. Michael the Archangel. Quis ut Deus? "Who is like God?" (directed at the adversary). You?! Haughty and proud. You're nothing.

Happy Feast of the Archangels to those who observe. St. Michael the Archangel is the Patron Saint of Soldiers, the Infantry, and the Airborne. Guardian of the Church. Our Iron Mike. Highly venerated in the 82nd.

No Christian is morally obligated to support Israelites, ESPECIALLY Israelites who openly engage in evil. One of the reasons why the Prophet Jeremiah hid the Ark of the Covenant is because they were unworthy of it. 2 Maccabees 2:4-7 Jeremiah 7:31 Jeremiah 19:5 Jeremiah 32:35

Last year, I asked Grok if there is sufficient evidence to corroborate the charge that Israel is committing intentional acts of mass murder in Gaza, which fit the criteria for genocide. This was Grok's reply:

Sometimes an unexpected occurrence will happen in your favor. That's not luck or chance. Also, be vigilant. For just as demons walk amongst us, so, too, do angels. Was that stranger offering counsel or providing you with help during a moment of need REALLY just a good Samaritan? 🤔

God knew us before the dawn of creation, and when we were given the gift of life, so too were we given the gift of choice. Prove yourselves worthy. Serve God well by serving those who struggle on the trail. Be the hand of Christ.

70x7. Mercy for the merciful; forgiveness to those who forgive. Condemn, if you want to be condemned. For as you judge others, so will YOU be judged, and the measure with which you measure will be measured out to you. You get what you give. The Word of the Lord. 🙏

When you're wrong, swallow your pride and admit that you were wrong. Blame-shifting is a core trait of a narcissist, and you don't want to be toxic. It's self-destructive. Put on your big boy pants, take ownership, learn from the experience, and move on a better person.

No man is morally qualified to be a gatekeeper that denies others, namely those who hunger and thirst, a seat at God's table. Pope Francis 🌹 said, "When Jesus asks that everyone be brought to His table, it means that NO ONE is excluded."

In life, you will encounter people who will laugh at or mock you because of your faith – to include family and/or lifelong friends. It'll hurt. 1/2 #CatholicBluesky

All of us will find ourselves on the storm-battered boat at some point in our lives. All of us. On that day, we'll experience fear and uncertainty. Doubt. We're human, after all. Don't lose the faith. Turn to God. He offers salvation. If you surrender yourself to Him, He will calm the storm.

Pretty deep guidance from the Holy Father. Admittedly, I guess, perhaps, I am guilty of taking my faith for granted. I simply believe. I don't question. I don't doubt. But how does that nourish the commitment? I talk to God & heed His instruction, true, but is that enough? Something to think about.

The Holy Father is 100% correct. malum ex malo. Evil begets evil. Saints Thomas Aquinas and Augustine. 🙏 However, it is not evil to render an unjust aggressor unable to cause harm, and force is morally justified if it is necessary, reasonable, and proportional to the situation (CCC 2265).

The Gospel of the Day: Jesus was nearly thrown off a cliff outside Nazareth because He strongly implied that faith, not genealogy, is what matters. Luke 4:25-28, Romans 9:6. Faith, obedience, and repentance are what determine who is chosen; not birthright.

The "People of the Sea" isn't a metaphor for a phantom enemy used to elicit fear so that those who wield power can control us. WE are the "People of the Sea." It's who we become when we forsake God's law and allow the monster within to take control and guide our actions. #TheOdyssey

Flaunting a magazine-loaded semiautomatic rifle in the house of God, a consecrated church.... standing before the tabernacle.... and grinning while defiling it. People have burned for far less.

Messi accompanied FC Barcelona to the Levant in August 2013 to promote peace. A little over a week later, he shed tears when he met Papa Francisco 🌹 in Rome. That was Messi's first Instagram post: a video he shared of his Vatican visit.

I'm rooting for 🇪🇸 España, but it's silly to jeer Argentina because of Netanyahu and his pet Milei. Argentina is a Catholic nation. Papa Francisco 🌹, who recognized the State of Palestine in 2015, hails from there. Messi is Catholic and apolitical. He's no murder apologist.

Bill Barr testified under oath that there was no evidence to corroborate Trump's fraud bullshit. If Trump has the receipts that contradict what Barr said, then why isn't he pressing Kash Patel to charge him with perjury? 🤔

The Parable of the Sower. Alas, not everyone has eyes that see and ears that hear, but that's not an excuse to give up on them. I don't accept that it's a futile endeavor – especially for those that we love. Evangelize. Be a faithful witness. Let your example guide the lost.

Bp. Schneider is consistent. I'll give him that. After all, he can't rationally argue that, because they reject the concept of a Triune God, Muslims "don't adore the one true God" or "hold the faith of Abraham" if he doesn't apply the same logic to Rabbinic Jews since they also reject the Trinity.

SSPX made a conscious decision to go from quasi-schismatic to full-fledged. Invincible ignorance doesn't apply to its adherents, so they're all damned (CCC 846). This is the price they choose to pay to do their own thing. So be it. Their choice. Free will. Narrow is the gate.

Last night's embarrassing defeat effectively quieted the Trump humpers and MAGA chuds. Their cult leader bullying FIFA to overturn Balogun's suspension did nothing more than spur Team Belgium 🇧🇪 to take no prisoners. As usual, everything that Donald Trump touches turns to 💩

José Galindo @brandulf44.bsky.social · 06/07/2026
Balogun having his suspension lifted isn't a flex. It simply accentuates the fact that when Trump doesn't like the outcome, the rules no longer apply. That isn't commendable. It's dishonorable and disgusting. Fair play and sportsmanship mean nothing to Trump and his kind. No honor. No integrity.
000
José Galindo @brandulf44.bsky.social · 06/07/2026
Balogun's red card was NOT overturned; the referee’s decision remains on record. FIFA instead used Article 27 to suspend the automatic one-game ban after Trump called FIFA President Gianni Infantino and shamelessly used his political influence to benefit Team USA. Pathetic.

The Gospel of the Day: Doubting Thomas. Contrast this with the Faith of the Centurion (Matthew 8:5-13; Luke 7:1-10), a Roman and a Gentile. Jesus explains it well in Matthew 8:11-12. I encourage everyone to read that passage. Much wisdom found within.
