Let us reject the logic of violence and war, and embrace peace founded on love and justiceβan unarmed peace, not based on fear, threats or weapons. This peace is disarming, because it is capable of resolving conflicts, opening hearts, and generating trust, empathy, and hope. I strongly reiterate: The world thirsts for #Peace! Enough of war and all the pain it causes through death, destruction, and exile! #ApostolicJourney #Cameroon

Pope Leo's Easter message:
"Let those who have weapons lay them down! Let those who have the power to unleash wars choose peace! Not a peace imposed by force, but through dialogue! Not with the desire to dominate others, but to encounter them!"

Guys, we're not sleepwalking into fascism, we're being deliberately and methodically marched into it.

Each year when Christmas is on its way, I post this song that I wrote for @JoanneFmacd's and my son, Keith. I hope you enjoy it. Joanne and I wish all our family and friends a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Thanks @Prof_MacD for doing the video. youtube.com/watch?v=7ypkkKvmβ¦

Nichelle Nichols was The First. She was a trailblazer who navigated a very challenging trail with grit, grace, and a gorgeous fire we are not likely to see again.
May she Rest In Peace.

Do you know why No.2 Construction Battalion (CEF) was formed as the only segregated, all-Black battalion-sized formation in Canadian military history? Go to no2-cef.ca/ to learn about the planned National Apology to the Black Battalion.

Once upon a time, when you turned 18 and wanted to be Billy Bad Ass and shoot a big gun, you enlisted in the military... So remind me again how the pro military party has made it easier for young American men to get those big guns and ostensibly wage war on the American people??

Those who believe they are upholding the faith by pointing their finger at others may have a certain βreligiosityβ, but they have not embraced the spirit of the Gospel, for they disregard mercy, which is the heart of God. #GospelOfTheDay (Jn 8:1-11)

Mass graves.
City bombings.
Civilian executions by death squads.
Widespread marauding by combatants.
Millions of refugees of war.
Cities ceasing to exist as human settlements.
Itβs Europe and the year is 2022, ladies and gentlemen, I keep saying that. β at Ukraine

I feel shame for the role that a number of Catholics with educational responsibilities have had in the abuse and lack of respect for the identity, culture and spiritual values of the Indigenous Peoples in Canada. All these things are contrary to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Remember when NS had restrictions, and one or two cases was a big deal? Now there are nearly 500 cases per day and 10 deaths per week. Remember the naysayers that said restrictions and masks didnβt work? Where did they go?

My fellow townsmen fleeing Volnovakha tell me lots of dead bodies are scattered in the streets.
Russia simply swept the town of 25,000 off. β at Ukraine

Couldnβt have asked for a better welcome in Poland. The cab driver didnβt charge us after finding out we were Ukrainian. Ukrainian flags flying everywhere I look. Makes this feel a little less lonely. Thank you.

Turning the other cheek is not the withdrawal of the loser, but the action of one who has a greater inner strength, who defeats evil with good, who opens up a breach in the heart of the enemy, unmasking the absurdity of his hatred. It is dictated not by calculation, but by love.
