Did NASA’s Artemis II mission really do lunar science or go to the Moon for all humanity? An unfortunate breakdown of too many giant leaps of imagination.

“Artemis II was certainly inspiring. But going from there to peddling that the mission went to the Moon ‘for all humanity’ against the backdrop of crimes against humanity on Earth is an unfathomable giant leap.”

Absolutely incredible.

NASA Astronaut Reid Wiseman, who commanded Artemis II, took this footage from the far side of the Moon with his iPhone.

Watch with sound on.

The way his attack on the pope functions best for Mr. Trump, like so much of the ragebait with which he pollutes our collective consciousness, is by pulling attention back to him so that we talk about him within terms that he has set. If we are doing that, Mr. Trump does not much care, I suspect, whether we agree with him or oppose him, because at least we are back in orbit around him.

I'm gonna get this out of my system so I don't go insane: What Trump said about the pope is easily the most genuinely anti-Catholic thing any American politician has ever said in my entire lifetime, and if Obama or Biden had said it, there would literally be calls to disband the Democratic Party.

You all are talking about “the Pope is weak on crime” and I feel like the real gem is “should get his act together as Pope.”

I appreciate it. For what it’s worth, in terms of my deepest cares, the Moon image is also extremely terrible

I might actually have an MI at this. Like truly I don’t know if there is a combination of images that could be more perfectly designed to upset me so deeply.

Jack I am so sorry that you had to log in about this and react to it. I am also laughing so hard I can barely see, because it is so purely absurd, but also I am genuinely sorry that religion reporters have to like, think about this

Fr. Jim, I keep thinking how sorry I am for you, the clergy, my cousin who is a priest, all the spiritual directors and even lay Catholics who are forced to now think about this. Bless Pope Leo for his courage and spirit.
