I’m a proud, life-long Catholic. God didn’t arm the Minneapolis shooter, politicians did. Nothing that has been reported about the cause points to religion. It does point to a dangerous individual having easy access to weapons. Let’s stop hiding behind religion to excuse the preventable.

By all means, pray. Pray as much as you need. But I went to Sunday School too, and I remember this: “Faith without works is dead.” (James 2:14-26)

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made. -FS Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby, published 4/10/1925.

Original 1925 jacket cover of The Great Gatsby

The Great Gatsby
Here is a novel, glamorous, ironical, compassionate a marvellous fusion into unity of the curious incongruities of the life of the period which reveals a hero like no other one who could live at no other time and in no other place. But he will live as a character, we surmise, as long as the memory of any reader lasts.
"There was something gorgeous about him, some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life. ..
It was an
extraordinary gift for hope, a romantic readiness such as I have never found in any other person and which it is not likely I shall ever find again?"
It is the story of this Jay Gatsby who came so mysteriously to West Egg, of his sumptuous er-tertainments, and of his love for Daisy Buchanan a story that ranges from pure lyrical beauty to sheer brutal realism, and is infused with a sense of the strangeness of human circumstance in a heedless universe.
It is a magical, living book, blended of irony, romance, and mysticism.

GREAT GATSBY

The fact that everything around us is burning to the ground & some people still have no clue that they voted for the arsonist or are complicit in the arson is absolutely mind boggling. People are ok with it so long as the black woman isn’t their President 🤯. America, we have a problem!

When I was a kid, I stayed up to watch State of the Union speeches. Never did I imagine I would one day sit in the chamber and watch a President talk about surrendering to Russia and brag about raising prices on families through tariffs. What a stain on the history of our nation.
