Parents sue school district after 11-year-old girl was forced to share bed with ‘transgender’ boy – Allah's Willing Executioners

A group of Colorado parents are suing their kids’ school district after a gender-confused boy was placed not only in the same hotel room – but in the same bed with – a fifth-grade girl.
Attorneys with the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) have filed an
opening brief with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit on behalf of four Colorado families who are challenging Jefferson County Public Schools for “violating parents’ fundamental right to make decisions about the upbringing and education of their children.”
“The families are asking the court to stop school-district officials from requiring their children to share bedrooms and shower facilities with students of the opposite sex on school-sponsored overnight trips,” according to an ADF press release. “The district’s policy of rooming students by ‘gender identity’ rather than sex without prior notice or a sex-separated alternative violates the families’ free exercise, bodily privacy, and …

A Thanksgiving Contemplation and History

What are you grateful for?
The question is now in wide circulation and not only at Thanksgiving.

Historian Michael Hoffman at Plymouth Rock, 1990
It’s a challenging one that calls us to a consciousness of the riches we have received. It was popularized in the first part of this new century by the proprietors of a vegetarian restaurant chain in California, Cafe Gratitude. Their book,
Sacred Commerce: Business as a Path of Awakening remains one of the most effective human relations and management guides extant.
Even an arch-cynic like Niccolo Machiavelli acknowledged the supremacy of the virtue of gratitude:
“Machiavelli despaired of men left to their own resources with a more than Augustinian despair.…It was not so much that men were naturally evil as that he found them naturally selfish, cowardly, fickle, base, and generally worthless. And yet in the pages of the Discourses on Livy which he had dreamed over as a child, and in the other histories of antiquity he had leisure to study …

At today's press conference, Tucho was asked if his document on monogamy also applies to two homosexuals in a stable relationship. He replied that the Church considers marriage to be an exclusive union between a man and a woman. But: "That does not mean that there are no values in other contexts and that what we say here cannot also apply to other forms of unions. When we talk about patience, respect, etc., that also applies to relationships between friends and other forms of relationship."

“Eminenza, vorrei sapere: questo documento, per persone dello stesso sesso che vivono unioni di monogamia…
Sono esclusi da Una carne?”
Tucho: “Quello non vuol dire che in altri contesti non ci siano dei valori, no?
E che quello che diciamo qua non possa servire anche ad altre forme di unioni.
Quando si parla della pazienza, del rispetto, eccetera eccetera, quello vale anche per un rapporto tra amici, vale per altre forme di rapporto.”

"Father Bernard, I want you to reassure me, and then I will be certain! In a vision two years ago I saw you as a man able to stare at the sun without flinching, a courageous man. And I wept because I blush so much - because I am so timid! Good Father, through your kindness I have found a place in your soul, so that now, if you will, you can reveal to me through your word whether you want me to say these things openly or whether I should keep quiet."

‘SELECTED WRITINGS’ – Saint Hildegard of Bingen Translated by Mark Atherton – ‘Letter to Bernard of Clairvaux’; pages 49-50

[HILDEGARD OF BINGEN was born into a noble family in Bermersheim in 1098. At the age of eight her family gave her into the care of a religious noblewoman, Jutta of Spanheim, who took Hildegard with her to become a recluse at the Disibodenberg monastery. Some time between 1112 and 1115, when the monastery became a convent, Hildegard took religious vows.
After Jutta’s death in 1136, Hildegard was elected abbess at Disibodenberg. At this time she started to write about the visions she had been experiencing. Her first work, Scivias, appeared with Papal approval in 1151, just after she had established her own religious community at Rupertsberg, near Bingen. Her collection of religious songs, the Symphonia, appeared in 1158. She then produced a number of other works, including The Book of Life’s Merits (c. 1163), The Book of Divine Works (c. 113), lives of local saints, and various musical, scientific and medical works. She also invented a private language, which formed the basis of two short …More

Stop Praising Your Child

I read an interesting article that explains why praise harms children. She points to one professor whose twenty-five years of experience and over 50,000 hours of conversation has led him to conclude that “praising a child as ‘clever’ may not help her at school. In fact, it might cause her to under-perform.”
Yet modern child psychology, educational theories, children’s literature, and the average parent operate on the basic assumption that a child’s self-esteem depends on a great deal of praise. Praise for a picture well-drawn! Praise for kicking the ball at soccer practice! Praise for train town well-built! Praise for eating dinner! But as it turns out, a child praised as “clever” may react by becoming afraid to try. Why? According to Professor Grosz, if that child has already shown herself to be “the best,” then what else is there except the looming possibility of failure, of doing less than the best? The child may, Grosz says, “simply repeat the same work—why draw something …

I think this is nonsense. Yes, it probably can be overdone, but praise can give confidence to a child to expand even further. Continual criticism causes much more harm.

American Health Insurance is legalized racketeering. It’s a scam American doctor calls the hospital to get self pay pricing for a patient for pregnancy care
-Hospital response: “If they're self-pay, they give them a package price which would include the delivery and all of the services that they might need during the nine-month period”
-Doctor “If you could give me the package price?
-” Hospital “$5,730.37 and this is for a routine vaginal delivery with pre and post care in the hospital.”
-Doctor “Okay, so does that cover like the hospital facility fee or is that just the OBGYN group fee?”
- Hospital “It is both. It includes all of it”
Insurance pricing would be 2-3x+ this cost

Leo XIV Turns Secretariat of State into Ever-More Powerful Hub

Leo XIV has released today two documents a new General Regulation of the Roman Curia and a Personnel Regulation about recruitment. They enter into force on 1 January 2026 for a five-year ad experimentum period.
The Personnel Regulation requires Vatican employees to uphold exemplary religious and moral conduct, also in private life. It sets employment rules: six-day work weeks, fixed hours, 26 days of annual leave, monitoring of sick leave, restrictions on part-time work, and bans on employing relatives within the same office.
The General Regulation represents a complete reconstruction of the curial system—administrative structure, documentation regime, digitalization, the rights of the faithful, and a renewed centrality of the Secretariat of State.

Father Ted Creator Graham Linehan Cleared in Trans Activist Harassment Case – Allah's Willing Executioners

In an “important victory for free speech”, Father Ted creator Graham Linehan was found not guilty of harassment over posts made on social media about a transgender activist.
Linehan, one of the most acclaimed comedy writers of his generation and an outspoken critic of transgenderism, was
arrested in September at Heathrow airport in London by five armed Metropolitan Police officers after returning to the UK from the United States.
He was arrested over suspicion of inciting violence over a series of posts he made in October of 2024 in relation to trans activist Sophia Brooks, a biologically male transgender individual who identifies as a woman.
According to the Times of London, Westminster Magistrates’ Court District Judge Briony Clarke cleared Linehan of harassing Brooks, with Clarke finding that she did not believe the activist “was as alarmed or distressed” as had been claimed over Linehan’s social media posts.
However, the judge did find Linehan guilty of criminal damage for knocking …

Vatican Prefect Fernández: Link Between Celibacy and Abuse

At today’s presentation of the sexual psychology document Una caro. Elogio della monogamia, Tucho Fernández linked celibacy with abuse, reports German agency KNA.
A priest cannot expect to fill his feelings of loneliness with another person, he said, noting that this can give rise to abuse: "I have to resolve my feelings of emptiness, loneliness, and psychological problems in other ways."
For decades, many experts have pointed out that there is no evidence that celibate men are more likely to be pedophiles than the general male population. Psychologists and criminologists also emphasize that celibacy itself does not increase the likelihood of pedophilic tendencies [but how about porn?]. Furthermore: Data from Germany indicate that the extent of sexual abuse in Protestant and Catholic institutions is comparable.

Full quote: “Certainly what is said about non-possession also applies to us.
As a priest, I cannot presume to fill my sense of loneliness by using another person. Abuse also comes from there, doesn’t it? From my sense of emptiness, of loneliness.
I should look for other ways, not another person who can satisfy these needs. This also applies to the celibate.”

sp2 . .

If the Vatican took proper proactive measures to stop the abuse, such as knife castration, we would not have to ponder issues as such.
The real reason why these buggers wish to have married priest, like the Orthodox, is so that two homosexual priest can then be married, then freely, without condemnation, pork each other right before saying Liturgy.

That's no problem for zelensky. He will accept this willingly and quickly.
Russia banned “LGBT propaganda” in 2022 and labelled LGBT an extremist organization in 2024. Moscow opposes Ukraine joining NATO but initially stayed neutral on EU membership. In March, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Kiev had the “sovereign right” to join if the EU remained economic in nature.

Ukraine must say ‘yes’ to gay marriage – EU state

Sweden says Kiev must allow homosexual weddings in order to meet the bloc’s standards
Ukraine should extend full legal protections to gay people, including same-sex marriage, as part of its bid for EU membership, Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson has said.
Ukraine was granted EU candidate status in 2022 shortly after the escalation of the conflict with Russia. While Brussels has floated 2030 as a possible accession date, all current member states must approve the move.
“There’s a living expression of the libertarian values that Ukraine is fighting for,” Kristersson wrote in a post on Friday, after meeting with LGBTQ Ukrainian veterans and Sweden’s rights group RFSL in Stockholm. He noted that same-sex couples in Ukraine “cannot enter into marriage or a registered partnership” and said Sweden would “closely monitor” the matter during the EU accession process.
The message comes as Ukraine faces growing pressure from Brussels to adopt EU standards, including legal protections …

Abuse Victim Requests Meeting with Pope Leo Over His Handling of Her Case in Peru

A woman who says she and her sisters were abused by a longtime priest-friend of Pope Leo XIV is speaking out after he was recently granted a dispensation from priestly duties by the Vatican, raising the specter of a cover-up.
“We announce the initiation of legal actions before the competent canonical authorities against all ecclesiastical officials who participated in or were responsible for these acts of negligence,” said Ana María Quispe Díaz, who also requested “a personal audience with the Pope.”
Father Eleuterio Vásquez González, also known as “Lute,” is a priest of the Diocese of Chiclayo, Peru. Quispe Díaz has long maintained that Lute abused her and her two sisters. She expressed outrage over his dispensation.
“This decision means that the facts we reported – which were never even minimally investigated by the Church – will now remain definitively unresolved,” Díaz said in a statement published in English by the New Daily Compass this weekend.
Díaz further exclaimed …
