“Among the special schemes with which non-Catholics plot against the adherents of Catholic truth to turn their minds away from the faith, the biblical societies are prominent. They were first established in England and have spread far and wide so that We now see them as an army on the march, conspiring to publish in great numbers copies of the books of divine Scripture. These are translated into all kinds of vernacular languages for dissemination without discrimination among both Christians and infidels. Then the biblical societies invite everyone to read them unguided. Therefore it is just as Jerome complained in his day: they make the art of understanding the Scriptures without a teacher ‘common to babbling old women and crazy old men and verbose sophists,’ and to anyone who can read, no matter what his status. Indeed, what is even more absurd and almost unheard of, they do not exclude the common people of the infidels from sharing this kind of a knowledge.”
- Pope Gregory XVI, Inter Praecipuas

John Wycliffe is one of my heroes. His passion, conviction, and desire to get the Word of God into the hands of the people. This week I was able to look at our earliest surviving copy of Wycliffe’s English Bible. The Wycliffe Bible was produced in the late 1300s, roughly 1382–1395, making it the first complete English rendering of the Bible, over 200 years before the King James Version of 1611. If you look closely you’ll notice it’s handwritten, not printed. Every copy had to be produced by scribes. This was before printing arrived in England, so owning a Wycliffe Bible meant owning a massive, labor-intensive manuscript. It became a medieval bestseller.
More than 250 Wycliffite Bible manuscripts survive, which is extraordinary for a banned or controversial medieval English text. Only about 20 of those are complete Bibles.The copy you see me looking at in this picture — one of two I was able to take a look at — includes Genesis to Isaiah. The other one was a Wycliffe New Testament from 1390. It was risky after 1408–1409 to produce and own one of these. The Archbishop of Canterbury at the time, Thomas Arundel, restricted unauthorized new Scripture translations and public reading of Wycliffe-associated texts. So later possession or use of these copies could become religiously dangerous, especially if linked with the Wycliffe followers, known as Lollards.
Also, take a look at the last image, a calendar at the front of the second smaller Wycliffe Bible we looked at, from 1390. At the bottoms of the page the scribe has written: “Anno Domini 1348, in festo Sancti Michaelis Magni, evenit prima pestilentia Londoni” — “In the year of our Lord 1348, on the feast of St. Michael the Great, the first plague occurred in London.”

Most people don't know this, but Salvador Dalí built his entire career on tapping into his unconscious mind on purpose.
Dalí's most famous trick was a micro-nap he called "slumber with a key." He'd sit in a heavy Spanish-style armchair, head tilted back against the leather, both arms hanging completely limp off the armrests, and in his left hand he'd hold a heavy metal key pinched lightly between his thumb and forefinger.
Directly under that hand, on the floor, he'd place an upside-down plate. He'd then let himself drift into sleep. The instant he actually fell asleep, his muscles would go slack, the key would slip out of his fingers, hit the upside-down plate, and the clang would jolt him awake.
The whole nap was meant to last less than a quarter of a second. He called that half-second window the "taut and invisible wire which separates sleeping from waking," and he'd immediately sketch the hallucinations he saw in that flash.
The melting clocks, the elephants on stilts, the burning giraffes, a lot of that came straight out of those quarter-second naps. He picked the trick up from Capuchin monks and wrote it down as one of his "50 Secrets of Magic Craftsmanship."

What is this even supposed to mean? Leftists and rightists are going to put aside their obviously mutually exclusive, deeply held beliefs that come from centuries of religious and ideological inculcation, so they can defeat Monopoly Man? This is how an 8 year old views the world.

Every morning Saint Francis de Sales recommends meditating on this:
God had no need for you, yet He made you
He made you out of nothing
He did not need you, and you do not add to Him
Yet out of nothing, He made you solely out of Love.
Consider also the times you’ve betrayed God, but specifically how He brought you back when you repented…
Likewise, you betrayed God, but He brought you back
He had no need to bring you back, but He did.
Solely out of His immense love for you, and you in particular
Remember that God loves you.

🚨Emergency Warning🚨
Multiple people have been hospitalized with diabetic comas after participating in the new deadly “NIGGA JAR” trend. The Nigga Jar trend involves soaking pineapple slices in cool aid and jolly ranchers. One Nigga Jar contains as much sugar as 1000 bottles of coke.

Hitting your kids is in the same category as circumcision, iPads, strict adherence to the CDC vaccine schedule---it is for Ns, goyim, and walmart pajama people. It lowers IQ (Straus, 1995), increases aggression (Gershoff, 2016), is less effective than a timeout, and requires escalation to keep working. The replies to articles like this are filled up with the Dumbest People Who Ever Existed saying "it worked for me" and then genuinely malicious and hateful morons dropping reaction gifs of like daffy duck swinging a belt
"EVERY STATE IN AMERICA ALLOWS YOU TO PHYSICALLY CORRECT YOUR CHILD. It's legal. It's fun. Bring it on." -- profile says: Cat Sanctuary Dad. Unyielding steel. Workouts, keto, cat chaos, anime rants. Godzilla, Gundam, Mazinger, Ultraman, classical art, manga.
If you hit your kids, you will create permanent emotional distance with the only person/people you could ever be that close to, not to mention sending them down the road of being as much of a lost fuckup loser as you are who will hit their own kids, or wont, but only after spending a decade figuring out why they reflexively apologize all the time.
