It’s easy to call yourself a good father when someone else is carrying the weight of fatherhood for you. It’s easy to say you love your children when their mother is the one doing the hard work every single day. She’s the one scheduling doctor appointments, helping with homework, calming fears, attending school meetings, and staying awake through sleepless nights. You may claim the title of “good dad,” but do you know their favorite food? Their closest friends? What keeps them awake at night? Do you notice when they’re hurting, struggling, or simply need someone to listen? Being a father is more than providing money or sending the occasional message. It’s more than claiming love from a distance. Real fatherhood is built through presence, consistency, sacrifice, and involvement. While she gives her time, energy, patience, and heart, you cannot expect recognition for showing up only when it’s convenient. A child doesn’t measure love by words—they measure it by who is there.

The sea obeys and fetters break, and lifeless limbs thou dost restore, whilst treasures lost are found again, when young and old thine aid implore. Pray for us Saint Anthony.
1 Kings 21:1-16 God teaches us that the only true authority is love, the joy of a child, welcoming, and respect. Matthew 5:38-42 Jesus said, "Offer no resistance to one who is evil." There are two good reasons for this: to ease tension, and to allow time to find equitable solutions. Biblical texts: NAB-RE Normand Thomas.
On June 12, Raymond Arroyo spoke with New York diocesan priest Gerald Murray and journalist Robert Royal about Leo XIV’s trip to Spain. Main quotes. Raymond Arroyo: “Pope Leo XIV's call for reviving the Christian identity in Europe seems to be in direct conflict with the reality of an unchecked and open immigration policy. Aren't those mixed signals?" Gerald Murray: "Yes, it is discounting the fact that part of the reason why Christian identity is eroded is that governments which don't favor Christianity want to make peace with Islamic people coming into the country.” Robert Royal: "I don't think that the Church has really taken the proper measure of the difficulty of absorbing Islam into Western Europe.” The pope “is trying to paper over the conflict, you know, the way that the Christians had to reconquer Spain." Gerald Murray: "You have basically Catholics in Europe and serious Protestants. They face a double-edged sword. On the one hand, secular leftist governments who don't want …More
Achtung, Reichelt!Ein fleißiger Islamist ist vor allem eines: ein Islamist Es ist unsere historische Pflicht zu sagen, dass wir keinen einzigen Islamisten auf unserem Boden dulden. Wer von "kriegstüchtig" spricht, muss auch fordern, dass die Grenzen verteidigt und alle abgeschoben werden, die illegal kamen – egal ob "fleißig" oder nicht. Ein fleißiger Islamist ist vor allem eines: ein Islamist.

[Blessed Henry Suso; XIII-XIV Century AD; born: Uberlingen, Holy Roman Empire/died: Ulm, Holy Roman Empire; (aged 70); Religious, Priest; Mystic; German Dominican Friar] “ Chapter VI ~ How Deceitful the Love of This World is, And How Amiable God Is The Servant.--Alas, sweet Lord, how completely bewitched must they all be not to see this! Eternal Wisdom.--They stand in deep blindness. They endure many a hard struggle for pleasures which they neither fix their attachment nor afford them full gratification. Before they obtain one joy they meet with ten sorrows, and the more they pursue their lusts the more are these upbraided with being insufficient. Lo! godless hearts must needs be at all times in fear and trembling. Even the fleeting pleasure they obtain proves very harsh to them, for they procure it with much toil, they enjoy it in great anxiety, and lose it with much bitterness. The world is full of untruth, falsehood, and inconstancy; when profit is at an end, friendship is at an end …More
"Eternal Wisdom.--I was the best regulated of men, and yet the most self-mortified. How may that be regulated which, from its very nature, corrupts the heart, confuses the mind, perverts discipline, draws off the heart from all fervor, and robs it of its peace? It breaks open the gates, behind which godly living lies hidden, that is, the five senses. It casts forth sobriety and introduces audaciousness, the loss of grace, estrangement from God, interior tepidity, and exterior sloth."

German public broadcaster ZDF claims Elon Musk called for migrants to be hunted down in Northern Ireland.
Das ZDF erfindet einfach, Elon Musk habe "zur Jagd auf Migranten aufgerufen." Tatsächlich hatte Musk auf X geschrieben: "Only by protesting REPEATEDLY and LOUDLY will there be any change!!" Wie lange wollen wir es noch hinnehmen, dass dieser Staat uns zwingt, für die Propaganda-Lügen, die man uns erzählt, auch noch zu bezahlen? Und wie kann es sein, dass bei ZDF Heute ständig mit Worten und KI gelogen, getäuscht und manipuliert wird, ohne dass es personelle Konsequenzen gibt? Die Antwort ist einfach: Es ist genau so gewollt.
Jane Allen was suffering from anorexia. She traveled to Colorado seeking treatment. Instead, her doctor offered assisted suicide — a prescription for death. Her father intervened just in time. Jane began to heal — eating again, tapering off morphine. The anorexia clinic dropped her, calling her a “liability.” When Jane chose life, her doctors walked away. Assisted suicide isn’t healthcare. It’s preying on the sick and vulnerable.
Colorado has an assisted suicide program? Why is it here in America? Why hasn't trump stopped this? When was the law passed? This is insane right here on American soil. And it's ignored and worse, accepted.

Leo XIV Received "Porn-Singer": On June 12, Robert Royal and New York diocesan priest Gerald Murray questioned Leo XIV's meeting with "Bad Bunny" in Spain. Royal asked: "Why would the Pope or his organizers think it appropriate to take time out of the schedule to meet with Bad Bunny? [...] Look at what Bad Bunny's lyrics are. Even the lyrics he presented at the Super Bowl. It was basically gratuitous sex acts being described in gross detail." Royal contrasted this audience to Leo XIV’s refusal to meet the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X: "The leader of the FSSPX wants to meet with the Pope, but he thus far has not allowed them onto his schedule." Murray agreed: "The Bad Bunny meeting was impromptu, last-minute bad idea." And: "Leave the pornography-spewing singer on the side. Send him a priest to hear his confession and convert him. But he doesn't need this. This is just another publicity photo for him."
