American Diocese Faces Happy Challenge
The Diocese of San Jose is facing a happy challenge. After years of declining numbers of priestly vocations, a growing group of men are answering the call of Christ to serve as priests in the diocese. Last year, the diocese was blessed with seven seminarians. This year they are already twelve. The seminarians are attending the University of Saint Mary of the Lake in Mundelein, Illinois. However, the diocese is struggling to find the funds to finance their studies.
Vatican: «Dialogue» Is Empty Word
Tokyo Archbishop Tarcisius Isao Kikuchi has received a letter from Cardinal Filoni, prefect of the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples. In the letter, Filoni unilaterally announced that a new seminary of the Neocatechumenal Way will be established in Tokyo. Filoni added that the decision was taken after a large consultation with clergy and laity. On August 15 Isao issued a statement saying, "I am very …More

Trump - Selective Helper of Christians
İlnur Çevik is a fake news bootlick for Erdogan and, fearing for his own safety, doesn’t want to get “Putined” like his fellow journalists in Russia. ![🤒](/emoji/f09fa492)

Trump - Selective Helper of Christians
İlnur Çevik is a fake news bootlick for Erdogan and, fearing for his own safety, doesn’t want to get “Putined” like his fellow journalists in Russia.![🤒](/emoji/f09fa492)
Trump met Erdogan at a Nato meeting early in June. Their discussions were very friendly, and after they ended, Trump thought they had made a deal: Trump would ask Israel’s prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu to release a Turkish citizen, Ebru Ozkan, arrested because of alleged terrorist links to Hamas, and then Turkey would release pastor Andrew Brunson, who was arrested in Turkey on October 2016 on charges of espionage, which the US considers are bogus charges. So on July 14, Trump called Netanyahu and requested that Ozkan be released, and she was released the next day. But Brunson was not released, and Turkish officials said that no such deal had ever been made. Instead, they began piling more demands that would have to be met in exchange for the release of Brunson, including the extradition of Fethullah Gülen, whom Erdogan blames for the attempted coup in Turkey in 2016, but without any evidence.
Gulen will eventually return to rule Turkey when Erdogan's been dragged out and executed. If the military hadn't lost its nerve, Erdogan would have been executed the first time he tried to take power.![👌](/emoji/f09f918c)
We've already done one half of the exchange for Brunson and Erdogan decided to double-cross. Now they want the Sufi cleric Fethullah Gülen and "an undisclosed amount of cash" as well. No deal.
Turkey’s head Muzzie is angry. They are always angry. Their religion teaches them to be. Erdogan mistakenly figured he was dealing with another chump like Obama.
This is why Trump’s supporters love him and his critics don’t get it. You SHOULD be playing hardball against these dishonest people. Hit them where it hurts (and when they’re vulnerable) until they cry uncle and you get them to back down. How many administrations in a row have we had people who just go along to get along? Stop putting up with nonsense from these retrograde weirdos. Too many people are fed up with that.![😡](/emoji/f09f98a1)
What about Germany?
What will Chancellor Angela Merkel do about this?
She'll eat more donuts, strudel, cheesed mashed potatoes, beer and sauerkraut. She has given all her sausage to Erdogan. Therefore all she can do is generate flatulence.![😁](/emoji/f09f9881)
Turkey is not our ally, contrary to popular belief. It is a Muzzie country, and its allies are Muzzie countries. They are not to be trusted. (see: Taqiyya)![👌](/emoji/f09f918c)
Is Andrew Brunson's Release More Important Than Alliance With Turkey?
