١٤ تشرين الأول، القديس كاليستس الأوّل، البابا الشهيد 🙏 October 14th, St. Callistus I, Pope and Martyr 🙏

You know it’s weird, The Church Fathers had mixed opinions on the death penalty. But that aside, They unanimously condemn executions used for entertainment, which is the bigger problem with what Trump doing. Augustine condemns these practices over and over in his texts

using stuff from anglicans and the reformed and the eastern schismatics in theology for me is kinda similar to st paul using greek pagan philosophers

I will never forget the sense of divine stillness that enveloped me the first time I knelt in one of the pilgrims’ niches at S. Edward’s shrine at Westminster and asked his prayers for my vocation. It wasn’t just that the noise of all the tourists throughout the Abbey was muffled. It was something inside of me as well. O God, who didst call holy Edward thy Confessor from the tottering eminence of an earthly realm, to rest in the secure glory of thy heavenly kingdom: grant us, we pray thee, so to venerate him on earth, that we may be found worthy to reign with him in heaven. Through, &c. —Collect for Oct. 13th from the Anglican Office Book (lightly edited)

Happy feast of St. Edward the Confessor! From today’s Office of Readings for the saint—a sermon of Msgr. Ronald Knox: «When we venerate Saint Edward, we venerate a failure. We do so advisedly. Not because success in life necessarily falls to the grasping and the unscrupulous,

Friends, few theologians have shaped my thinking more than Pope Benedict XVI, and I’m excited for the culture to encounter this great body of work. Our 2026 New Ressourcement conference will gather scholars from across the country to explore the rich intellectual world of Joseph Ratzinger. Alongside it, Word on Fire will begin releasing his 24-volume Collected Works, beginning with Volume 6.1, in the hope of placing his writings in the hands of more readers. And next month, I’ll be delighted to add my voice to the conversation as part of a panel at St. Mary’s University in Minneapolis, reflecting on his life and thought. Benedict’s theology still has so much to teach the Church, and I’m grateful to be bringing his work to a wider audience.

Friends, some critics say that the phrase “the pursuit of happiness” in the Declaration of Independence indicates that America was founded on individual desire, not the common good. But Jefferson was classically educated, and he would have known that happiness, in the true sense, is bound up with virtue. That’s the opening argument of Aristotle’s “Nicomachean Ethics”: All of us desire happiness, and happiness is the activity of the soul in accord with virtue. Therefore, to speak of “the pursuit of happiness” isn’t to give in to Hobbesian subjectivism; it’s to open the soul to the virtuous pursuit of beatitude. And it’s a phrase worth reclaiming!

Another “Latiniser” has apostatised. Genuinely sad to see, and it is nothing to gloat over, but this is what we were concerned about.

Thread of Threads 🧵: Short biographies of Byzantine Catholic Elders (I will add bit by bit as time goes)

"The next day, over 2,000 Catholics went to the sultan's palace to ask the governor to have the orders [forcing Catholic Greeks to celebrate with the Orthodox bishop] retracted. The governor was out in the country, half an hour away from the palace. People went to find him. When the governor arrived and saw such a great crowd, he asked: 'Aren't you Greeks?' 'We are Greek Catholics,' they answered. He then exhorted them to follow Gerasimos, trying to find out the points that separated Catholics from Orthodox. Some of the notables then asked him for a private discussion, to give him some satisfaction on this point [so he would understand he can't force them to pray with the Orthodox bishop]. The conversation laster over an hour, but the governor could not be convinced. He renewed his exhortations, even threatening them with death if they didn't obey. When everybody refused and offered to undergo the death penalty, uncovering their heads and tying a handkerchief around their necks as a token of slavery, the governor realized that he was getting nowhere, and not judging the matter to be overly important he dismissed them, which led to the dispersion of the crowd... The qadi, undoubtedly influenced more by the bribe than by the bishop's reasoning, went to the governor and got him to change his mind. Although the governor was convinced in his own mind that the accused were innocent, he went out and ordered the crowd of Catholics to be brought back to him immediately. The crowd had already dispersed and many were able to take flight, so that the governor's envoys only brought back a few people to the palace. The governor promptly condemned them to death; his people killed some of them in the palace's stables, and others in the courtyard of the stables, before numerous witnesses. It was April 16, 1818, according to the Gregorian calendar. The names of these first martyrs have been preserved for us in the officially report sent from Aleppo to the Propagation of the Faith. They are: 1. Joseph, son of Nicholas Qaq, a married man. 2. Peter, son of Nasrallah Marashe, married. 3. Gabriel, son of Naamatullahbm Tanbeh, single. 4. George, son of Gabriel Ajjouri, single. 5. Nasrallah, son of Abdallah Tanbeh, single. 6. Anthony, son of Michael Basile, married. 7. Naamatallah, another son if Michael Basile, single. 8. Joseph, son of Naamatallah Shahiat, married. 9. Fathallah, son of Joseph Obeid al Aswad, married. These nine martyrs were Greek Catholics. [Furthermore], among them were [also] George, the son of Michael Bakhashe, a Syrian Catholic, and Anthony, the son of Michael Msawar, a Maronite. The bodies were cast outside the city and remained there two days without burial, because everybody was afraid to share their lot. On the third day, the parents of the victims went to find [them, and to spare you the details, they did not show the effects of death/seemed incorrupt]. One might have said that they were sleeping. They were buried in the cemetery of their communities.... The burning sun caused no alteration in their traits: their blood continued to be red in color; in 1844 Father Gaudez, C.M., saw some handkerchiefs where it was still preserved. After the Catholics had buried them, lights were seen over their tombs for several days. A good number of Syrian Jacobites, struck by the Catholics' constancy, asked to be received into the Church."
