In this passage from his work Moralia (on the Book of Job), Pope St. Gregory the Great teaches that all who die as unbelievers and without the sacraments of the Church are not saved. Like other saints who address this matter, as part of his exposition he cites John 3 about how one who does not believe is already condemned. Pope St. Gregory the Great, Moralia, Book 26, Chap. 27 (#50): “Of whom the Prophet says, The ungodly do not rise again in the judgment. [Ps. 1:5] And of whom the Lord declares, But he who does not believe is already condemned. [John 3:18] And of whom Paul says, They who have sinned without the Law, shall perish without the Law. [Rom. 2:12] Therefore even all unbelievers rise again, but to torment and not to judgment. For their case is not then examined; because they come into the presence of their strict Judge, with the condemnation already of their own unbelief. But those, who retain their profession of faith, but have not works in accordance with it, are …More
A businessman once bought a massive diamond in South Africa — about the size of an egg yolk. But his excitement quickly turned into disappointment when he discovered a crack running through the stone. Hoping for a solution, he took it to a jeweler for advice. The jeweler studied the gem carefully and said, “This can be split into two perfect diamonds, each worth more than the original stone. But one wrong strike could turn it into a pile of cheap fragments. I won’t take that risk.” Other jewelers in different countries gave him the same answer. Then someone told him about an old master jeweler in Amsterdam — a man with “golden hands.” The businessman flew there the same day. The old master examined the stone through his loupe and began to explain the risk, but the businessman interrupted: he had already heard this speech many times. The jeweler agreed to do the job and named his price. When the man accepted, the jeweler called over a young apprentice sitting nearby, his back turned …More

02.11.2025 A. I SEES SCHISM OVER VATICAN COUNCIL II RATIONAL : THE CATHOLIC CHURCH RETURNS TO THE MIDDLE AGES There will be an overnight change to Tradition in the Catholic Church if Pope Leo or another pope announces that Lumen Gentium 14 and 16 in Vatican Council II are hypothetical cases only. This is the conclusion of A.I on ‘X’ in a discussion today afternoon. The Synods will not be able to support their liberalism with Vatican Council II any more, since the Council will not be liberal any more. A.I sees overnight change in the Church if Pope Leo approves Vatican Council II interpreted rationally and ethically, whose conclusion is traditional only. Here is the discussion from A.I Lionel Andrades’ argument is a theological provocation rather than a neutral analysis. It hinges on a single, contested premise: that Vatican II becomes “conservative” (even “ecclesiocentric” and medieval) once one rejects what he calls the “irrational” interpretation of certain texts—specifically, …More
If AI is worth its salt then it will recognize that the Council of Nicaea is overriding including Canon 6 which granted the Eastern Churches ADMINISTRATIVE autonomy and Rome MAGISTERIAL authority. It would explain to us that with its main theme of condemning Arianism, the ignoring of the above led to a hardening of heart that contributed to the emergence of Islam, a forward edition of Arianism.

A German law professor once gave his entire class the same written exam. The case was simple: Two neighbors were in a legal dispute. One had apple trees, and the branches hung over the fence, dropping apples onto the other neighbor’s tulip beds. The falling apples broke the delicate flower stems. Half the class sided with the tulip lover. The other half defended the orchard owner. They all quoted statutes, paragraphs, and showed off their impressive knowledge of German property law. But in the end, the professor pointed out one simple fact: Apples fall in the fall. Tulips bloom in the spring. The situation they had been analyzing so thoroughly could never actually happen. All protests were met with the professor’s calm response: “Before you start quoting the law, try using common sense.”
Meta’s Chief Censor for Israel Brags About Silencing Dissent In a res... Meta’s Chief Censor for Israel Brags About Silencing Dissent In a resurfaced video, Jordana Cutler — Meta’s “Director of Public Policy for Israel and the Jewish Diaspora” — boasts about her success in getting political opinions banned from Facebook and Instagram. “We’ve removed more content and accounts than ever before that cross the line on Israel and antisemitism,” Cutler says, framing the censorship of pro-Palestine voices as a “victory” for her team. Her comments expose how Meta’s moderation policies are deeply entangled with Israeli political agendas, silencing journalists, activists, and ordinary users criticizing Israel’s actions in Gaza and the occupied territories. Critics say this level of state-aligned censorship represents one of the gravest threats to free speech in the West.
