  1. Die Linksjugend in Thüringen hat Sachbeschädigungen am und Blockade des geplanten Musterungszentrums in Jena angekündigt.

    Der öffentliche Aufruf zu Gewalttaten ist bereits rechtswidrig, wurde von der Stadt auch angezeigt, aber es wird doch später das bereits bestehende Gesetz zur "Gehsteigbelästigung" hier ebenso Anwendung finden?
    Oder gilt das nur für das gewaltfreie stille Gebet in der Nähe von Abtreibungszentren? Dann wäre das demnach nur rein ideologisch motiviert.

  2. It seems the pro-life Republicans and their Tangerine King Wannabe are wanting to shovel $1.5 trillion into their pro-death killing machine while American children starve, become sick and become less educated.

    Let that sink in.

  3. CW: Abortion, Catholic, spicy take but so good

    > A Church that breaks sheep’s legs and calls it love isn’t pro-life. It’s pro-control. And I’m done with control. I’m done with fear. I’m done with theology that cripples women and calls it protecting babies.

  4. What happens when you outsource to politicians the work of the Church. The problem post-Dobbs is that the pro-life legislation passed previously was crafted as virtue signals, unexpected to activate. When it did, it looked vindictive and created a caricature of "pro-life."

    It's not that we shouldn't be pro-life, but we were far too content with grand gestures that were empty. Notice how as soon as pro-life legislation _could_ do something, the political will to write it dried up and those who previous had started finding excuses not to.

    Why? Because politicking is performance art and we are fools when we hand our responsibilities over to that realm. Real pro-life work following God's value of life is actually doing it: caring from the very first moments of life until the last. Christians are actually doing this -- seriously, I know incredible people who have put their efforts where their mouths are for years -- but the over-focus on politicking overshadows the genuinely good work to value life. Outsourcing to politics never works.

  5. DO NOT COME IN HERE TALKING ANYTHING GLAD #IRAN PEOPLE ARE FREE. DO NOT EVEN GO THERE WITH ME. 🚨🚨🚨BABIES ARE BECOMING BLOOD SPOTS!!🚨🚨🚨 Show me the #Pro-Life. I think #Jan6 may become the #second #largest riot at the Capitol soon. If enough people show up, he never goes in that door again.

  6. "These are modern concentration camps that I'm writing about. And there is a real heritage of this kind of detention that we have to nod to because concentration camps can't enter the world without some of that previous stuff."

  7. And the price of allowing that perversion of Christianity to prance proudly as it represents itself as "moral" and "religious" is proving to be very high for the whole world — and will get higher.

  8. It's about cruelty, hostility, plain meanness, wrapped up in bible verses.

    It's about a rancid, twisted perversion of Christianity that has no gospel, no grace, and certainly no Jesus in it.

  9. What really energizes the white Christian majority that set all this into motion by voting for Trump three times?

    It's about their "right" to harm vulnerable others. It's about their desire to swallow, spread, and act on hateful lies about fellow human beings who happen to be immigrants.

    Or LGBTQ. Especially, today, trans.

  10. We're discovering that all the loud shouting about abuse of minors meant nothing at all to the same "moral" "majority," when push comes to shove.

    When their idol is the one in the limelight as abuse of minors is discussed….

    So what is it about, then?

  11. It never was about abortion.

    It wasn't about the "right to life." It wasn't about anything "pro-life," definitely not about a consistent ethic of life.

    For many of us, this era has been eye-opening. It has taken the mask off the movement masquerading as the "moral" "majority."

    And now pedophilia.

  12. "The record is accumulating. Other bishops and priests, joined by hundreds of laity, march to detention centers and issue pastoral statements decrying the activity of a paramilitary force, masked and accountable to no one, that is terrorizing whole cities on orders from the highest levels of government."

  13. "It is a different moment when Cardinal Joseph Tobin of Newark, New Jersey, says it was a priority to celebrate Ash Wednesday Mass inside an immigrant detention center before the usual Mass of that day at the cathedral."

  14. "It is a very different moment in U.S. Catholic experience when the cardinal archbishop of Chicago, Blase Cupich, celebrates an outdoor Ash Wednesday Mass attended by 3,000 people in solidarity with immigrants being detained, a direct condemnation of U.S. government policy."

  15. "The growing response by Catholic leaders to the deliberate and persistent government cruelty imposed on the most vulnerable in our society represents a new moment for U.S. Catholics. It is a moment fraught with no small measure of risk."

  16. As a right-wing Catholic outfit that's the personal plaything of a right-wing Catholic entrepreneur, Ave Maria is heavily invested in the "pro-life" movement. It sends a big contingent to the annual March for Life in DC — which just so happens to have been the venue in which measles infected Ave Maria students and other "pro-life" marchers.

  17. And speaking of the various strands of religion and Christianity in the US and the influence of those strands, there's this story:

    There's a major outbreak of measles at the right-wing Catholic university in Florida, Ave Maria. Ave Maria is the love child of right-wing Catholic entrepreneur and pizza magnate of Domino's fame, Tom Monaghan.

  18. "His continued silence on the murder of Catholic ICE nurse Alex Pretti, paired with effusive praise for Marco Rubio’s Munich speech and unprovoked attacks on Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the Democratic Party, signals a deepening partisan drift that stands in stark contrast to Pope Leo XIV’s consistent moral witness on migrants and religious liberty."

  19. "Bishop Robert Barron, once viewed as a thoughtful evangelist bridging faith and culture, has in recent weeks accelerated a troubling alignment with the Trump-Vance administration and MAGA priorities.

    Barron’s latest partisan provocations are now raising alarm within the Vatican."

  20. "Where were their voices when federal agents gunned down two U.S. citizens protesting inhumane treatment of migrants? ...

    Had our church's leaders spoken out earlier against the administration's cruelty toward migrants, with the urgency and unity they once devoted to issues such as same-sex marriage, religious liberty or abortion, perhaps political realities would have shifted sooner."

  21. "Where were their voices when the Trump administration threatened to cut food stamps for the poor while cutting taxes for the wealthiest Americans? Where were their voices when the administration kidnapped a foreign leader, threatened military action against an ally and invaded American cities?"

  22. "As the Trump administration escalated its assault on human dignity, many Catholics have wondered: Where are our bishops? Why don't they do something?

    Where were their voices when cuts to USAID consigned millions across the world to hunger, thirst and death?"

  24. Christen sind für linke Atheisten deshalb rechts, weil es nicht mehr wirkt, christliche Werte als unmoralisch und rückständig darzustellen. Deshalb wird Christentum nun politisiert und unter das allgemeine Feindbild "rechts" eingestuft, damit es verboten und mit Gewalt bedroht werden kann.

    Denn Christen werden niemals linke ideologische Erzählungen annehmen, dass Genitalverstümmelung bei Mädchen kulturelle Vielfalt sei, Kinder im Mutterleib zu töten ein Selbstbestimmungsrecht, die islamistische Eroberung der Kultur Europas eine Migration, dass Ehrenmorde Femizide seien und nichts mit #Islamismus zu tun haben, es keine Wahrheit gibt oder die Frau abgeschafft werden soll, weil es gegen alle wissenschaftlichen Befunde kein Geschlecht mehr geben darf.
    In der christlichen Lehre haben nämlich Glaube und Vernunft eine Beziehung, Moral und Werte eine Basis, die sich der Mensch nicht geben kann, und eine Wahrheit, die durch keine mit Gewalt durchgesetzte Meinung ersetzt werden kann.

    #Menschenwürde hört nicht da auf, wo die andere Meinung beginnt und diese ist nicht sogleich Hass und Hetze. Vielfalt ist auch das Ertragen des Anderen, nicht die Annahme der Einfalt eines Wohlfühl-Milieus, die als Vielfalt durchgesetzt werden soll. Asyl gilt für Verfolgte, Bedrängte und nicht für Eroberer, Besitz bedeutet Verantwortung und nicht Grund zur Enteignung, Arbeit ist ein Grundrecht und nicht die Arbeitsverweigerung.

  25. A quotation from George Carlin

    Boy, these conservatives are really something, aren’t they? They’re all in favor of the Unborn. They will do anything for the Unborn. But once you’re born, you’re on your own. Pro-life conservatives are obsessed with the fetus from conception to nine months. After that, they don’t want to know about you. They don’t want to hear from you. No nothing. No neo-natal care. No daycare. No Head Start. No school lunch. No food stamps. No welfare. No nothing. If you’re pre-born you’re fine. If you’re pre-school, you’re fucked.

    George Carlin (1937-2008) American comedian
    Show (1996-03-29), Back in Town, “Abortion,” Beacon Theatre, New York City (HBO)

  26. Has their "pro-life" rhetoric really meant nothing at all for years now?

    In fact, it has not ever been about defending a consistent ethic of life, but about control — about the desire to assert coercive control, the wish to return the culture to some mythic point in the past when women knew their place, stayed home and served men, people of color had no rights, LGBTQ people were nonexistent.

  27. One of their own, a right-wing Republican Catholic who thinks he's more Catholic than the pope and who beyond the shadow of a doubt calls himself pro-life called — out loud — for involuntary execution of mentally ill homeless people.

    Where's the outrage among "pro-life" American Catholics?

  28. And this is a Catholic man who said that the pope (Francis) shouldn't bother coming to America because he has values different than the values of Americans and America Catholics.

    White American Catholics have claimed for years now that voting "pro-life" (i.e., Republican) counts more than anything else in the world as they cast their votes.

  29. Saying it makes it thinkable.

    And Kilmeade had thought or thinks it or he wouldn't have said it.

    Once again: this is a Catholic man who made a video a few years ago about the meaning of Easter with none other than Cardinal Timothy Dolan.

  30. David James Burrell was a Reformed Dutch minister. He looks to follow Jesus. He says there are many wanting to help, but don’t want to look upon suffering. He calls this “quackery”! Go look upon people in shame and hunger. See crime and anguish. See it with your own eyes if you want to help it.

    Today, rather than visit areas w/ crime, we’ll concoct stories about crime in order to wall off people groups.

    How can you seek out sufferers?

  31. @rvaughnmd
    #AntiChoice zealots claim it's all about being "#ProLife".

    But once the child is born, they have NO interest in continuing to protect that life.

    No "food assistance". No "healthcare". And I'd add, "No interest in keeping guns out of classrooms." ("Here Ms. Crabapple. Stick this .38 in your desk drawer... just in case.")

    It's not about "life". It's about *control*.

  32. Johann Albrecht Bengel was a #Lutheran pastor who published a Greek New Testament. Here he comments on the Second Greatest Commandment (Matt 22:39). He speaks of a three way relationship between the reader, God, and himself. The mutual love of God to neighbor reinforces and sets an example for love between neighbors. It eliminates selfishness.

    Try reading this aloud quickly.

    How can you view a neighbor as truly loved?

  33. Hi, Fediverse! #Introduction time: I'm a political junkie from #America 🇺🇸 who doesn't fit easily into today's boxes:

    ✅ I try to respect the dignity of other people even if I disagree with them. #ImagoDei
    ✅ I'm a #prolife #conservative with a #libertarian / #ClassicalLiberal bent.
    ✅ I embrace being a #Neocon internationally (pro-#NATO, pro-#Ukraine #NAFO 🇺🇦 , pro-#Israel 🇮🇱, pro-#Canada 🇨🇦, anti-#terrorism).
    ✅ I'm a #Christian ✝️ who dislikes when people confuse Biblical principles with political preferences. I try to distinguish between the two in my takes.
    ✅ I don't criticize things just because #DonaldTrump or #JoeBiden said them -- I disagree when they go against my principles.

    I also really love #barbecue 🍖, #music 🎵 spanning pop to classical and enjoy writing. My takes on the world sometimes appear on @ofb — drop by and say hi to the whole gang over there! 👋

    (I realize I've been remiss to post an introduction after several months on the #Fediverse, so better late than never, right? #newhere)

  34.
