The Trump administration launched a new trade investigation against 16 trading partners in a move to rebuild tariff pressure.

That is sad

Oh, that's interesting, why did Bultmann remain Christian? and who are the other two?

Vatican theological commission warns of replacing God with 'a world governed by machines' The Vatican's International Theological Commission has warned that if humanity places total trust in technology in a "world ruled by machines," it risks replacing the "living God" with a counterfeit "...

As a Guardini-Bro that resonates quite strongly with me.

Mexican Catholics protect churches amid women's day protest vandalism "It pains us to see buildings and iconic areas mistreated and they shouldn't be," Archbishop Jorge Alberto Cavazos Arizpe of San Luis Potosí told local media. "But, as Jesus said, an offense against a...

"It pains us to see buildings and iconic areas mistreated and they shouldn't be," Archbishop Jorge Alberto Cavazos Arizpe said. "But, as Jesus said, an offense against a person, however small, will always be much more serious. And women have been very mistreated."

With how the world looks I should plant more potatoes and beans.

Also the reason why potatoes were so preferred by people in a wide stretch of Europe after their introduction.

Planting Trees in a World on Fire On Cultivating Hope During Bleak Times

Why plant trees and cultivate community when the scale of our crises and systematic problems seems so overwhelming? Some reflections apropos of very different happenings in two cities- Chattanooga and Tehran- last Saturday:

How was the Heisenberg book?

And don't get me started on the granular stuff like how many people of Germans there are and the dislike they have for each other
