Psychoanalysis & Catholicism. A fascinating discussion about Freud, Lacan, Pope Francis, and Maryse Choisy, the French journalist who went undercover to Mt Athos with a prosthetic penis, was analyzed by Freud, converted to Catholicism, and became an analyst herself.

Text from a philosopher friend of mine.

Choisy also had her book Psychoanalysis and Catholicism condemned by the Catholic Church and had to pay 200,000.00 Francs to remainder the book.

"Magataotao" on Twitter writes: "I am Catholic. This👇is not my Pope." Attached is a video of the Pope saying that we should search for peace and reject war. A community note under their tweet says: "You are not a Catholic if you do not accept the Pope, but rather a schismatic. Canon 751: “Schism is the refusal of submission to the Supreme Pontiff,” ie. the Pope. https://www.vatican.va/archive/cod-iuris-canonici/eng/documents/cic_lib3-cann747-755_en.html"

first in my bloodline to see someone get excommunicated by a community note

he's counting on people not knowing what a doctor looks like because they don't have healthcare

Yes, in a Twitter post!

I’m always forgetting until I’m reminded, the last time by Rob Schneider (!!). Yes, that Rob Schneider.

Yes indeed! I’m not Finnish but I work regularly with Finnish biblical scholars who simply do their work of studying and writing on the Bible, legally and in public view!

Excuse me Ryan, maybe they are “illegal” in Finland in the same way I am told they are “illegal” in Canada, the place where I, a biblical scholar, teach the Bible on a daily basis. “Illegal” here might mean that “not everyone agrees with me.” Hermeneutics matters!

Marathon talks? Compared to what? It took years for Obama to deliver a detailed Iran deal. The Trump admin are packing it in after 20 hours.

"Violence does not build up the kingdom of God, the kingdom of humanity. On the contrary, it is a favorite instrument of the Antichrist, however idealistic its religious motivation may be. It serves, not humanity, but inhumanity."

Easter Reflections

Such a thing as 0 is impossible!

A drunk former fox news host refused to promote two Black and two female officers because a convicted felon and 5x draft dodger does not want to stand next to a Black woman at military events.

Think about that for a second.

Terrific epsiode on Incarnation, featuring the poem Incarnation read by Rob James, the author, and a discussion of its themes. What does it mean to say Jesus is a human being? The poem is published in the show notes. It’s a terrific poem, perfect for Easter season.

Is the ‘Revival’ of Faith in Gen Z Real? While there are near-record numbers converting to Catholicism in some regions in the US, there’s no conclusive statistical answer.

Stories about people joining the Catholic church tend to overlook the related phenomenon of people leaving.

In the @pewresearch.org Religious Landscape Study, for every adult who reported becoming Catholic, there were 8.4 former Catholics.

"Universal health coverage is not merely a technical goal to be achieved; it is primarily a moral imperative for societies that wish to call themselves just." —Pope Leo XIV
