We can't remain in indecision. We have to find a grave. But what's the hurry? It's just the indecision, it seems to undermine us. But why? Our dead are in no hurry. Our dead can wait, while our waiting feels like eternity.

 In our time, a culture of power is taking hold, in which the availability of resources and the ability to dominate tend to dictate the agenda and criteria for decision-making. In this way, the common good of humanity is relegated to the background and the concrete tragedy of peoples at war is reduced to a secondary consideration in relation to strategic interests. This culture of power infiltrates society, changes relationships and behaviors, and grows by normalizing war, pursuing ever-greater military power, taking advantage of the crisis of multilateralism and fueling a false realism that insists that there is no alternative.

Pope Leo

Magnifica Humanitas

— The everything bubble is bound to burst.

it's the disaffection, it's a natural progression from the war on terror.

 Underlying narratives.

Our relationship with life seems to be in crisis today. Everything that appears as a “limit” — incapacity, illness, old age, suffering, vulnerability — tends to be seen primarily as a defect to be corrected, rather than as a reality through which our humanity matures and opens itself to relationship.

-I like this Pope. I'm proud he's from Chicago. Chicago also was graced by the artist Pope L.
