The @NapaInstitute, a self-professed "Catholic" organization that has long expressed its disdain for canon law (see ), today sent an email blast to raise funds illicitly through @UCU_University for non-humanitarian military aid to Ukraine soldiers. (1 of 5)ncronline.org/news/authentic…
The @NapaInstitute email specifically seeks funds for offensive equipment. Although Ukraine has a right to defend itself, there are serious canonical as well as moral problems when Catholic orgs raise funds for killing people. See next tweet for a link to the full email. (2 of 5)



Here's a temporary link to @NapaInstitute's email: . Note the deception: donations are to be marked "Student Government." Canon law bars @UCU_University from fund-raising for weapons; its own site seeks to fund other needs:

Note too that @NapaInstitute says funds raised for @UCU_University are buying @DJIGlobal drones for military use (and has photos to prove it). This is another moral evil, as DJI itself "absolutely deplore[s]" using its drones to cause harm--see . (4 of 5) https://t.co/7CEVQ7yPtndji.com/newsroom/news/…
Many Catholic orgs aid Ukraine in ways consistent with canon law and divine law--including @KofC, which Napa mentions at the end of its email: . A truly Catholic org, which Napa is not, doesn't cause scandal by involving the Church in bloodshed. (5 of 5)kofc.org/secure/en/dona…

A Halloween thread about my Halloween threads:

Every Halloween that I dress up, I dress as Nico. When I was younger, I dressed as young Nico. Now I dress as old Nico. She died at 49, but (luckily for my Halloween needs) looked older. That's her on the left. (1 of 3)
And yes, I made videos, because it was fun! Here I lip-sync a bit of Nico's version of a Jackson Browne tune. Trying for a 1982 feel. (2 of 3)
And here I lip-sync Nico's version of "My Funny Valentine," trying to capture the expressions she makes (especially with her eyes) in this: . Obviously my wig's too big, and I could have worked harder to make the makeup authentic. But it was fun! (3 of 3)

This past weekend, #CatholicTwitter learned ...

... that @GKCdaily gleefully selects Chesterton's most anti-Semitic quotes--drawing even from unreprinted writings--to disseminate them to its 145K followers;

1/5
... that not only does @chestertonsoc refuse to disavow @GKCdaily's anti-Semitism, but its prez Dale Ahlquist even wrote a rave review in its magazine of an anti-Semitic book by E. Michael Jones under the Jewish-sounding pseudonym Bradley Rothstein;


2/5
... and that both @SeanPDailey2, former editor of @chestertonsoc's magazine, and Kevin O'Brien (@thewordinc), the society's former spokesman, have publicly disavowed the Chesterton Society for its refusal to disavow @GKCdaily & others who celebrate Chesterton's antisemitism.

Public-service announcement:

Recently @fredlbarr, who has followed me & tweeted at me supportively for years, DMed me after I asked if anyone in Boston was interested in having me speak there. He offered to assist me & said he was in fact Father Fred Barr of @bostoncatholic. 1/6
Father Fred added that he was retired from the priesthood and asked me not to tell anyone he was a priest.

I then Googled him and found articles such as this: findingchristinastory.com/ancientfaithne…. When I asked Fr. Fred about them, he expressed offense that I had put his name into Google. 2/6
For my part, I was distressed that a man who followed my tweets closely, and thus couldn't be ignorant that I was a survivor of child sexual abuse, had ingratiated himself to me over a period of years while hiding his identity lest I learn he was accused of misconduct. 3/6

As I said in my address to @chestertonsoc (see ), we must distinguish between those things he said that are worthy of praise and those things he said that are unacceptable.

The statement in @GKCdaily's tweet below is absolutely unacceptable. 1/2
And it's not the first time that the account has tweeted such anti-Jewish hatred to its 144K followers.

Worse still, the quote has never been reprinted in any Chesterton collection. You have to be _looking_ for anti-Semitic quotes to find it.

For shame!

When I addressed @chestertonsoc, I said it should "engage in an honest reckoning with Chesterton’s writings on Jews": wherepeteris.com/wrestling-with….

The society responded by publishing a line-by-line rebuttal of ME, not GKC.

Clearly GKC's antisemitism has infected his modern cultus.

I shared earlier about Buddy Harrison, my fellow St. Joseph's Capitol Hill (@GoodNewsDC) parishioner. He was an ex-con who found Jesus, became a daily Mass-goer, and spent nearly every day of his life serving Christ's poor until he was gunned down outside his home Sept. 25. 1/x
Here's a good obit of Buddy (but it mistakenly says he had pancreatic rather than prostate cancer): eastoftheriverdcnews.com/2022/10/10/in-…
Today I was at his funeral Mass. I've never seen one like it. About 300 folks were there, most of them non-Catholic, many if not most Black or Hispanic. 2/x
The funeral was so inspiring that it moved me to spend hours last night exploring Buddy's social media.

It was an overwhelming experience--reinforcing, 100s of times over, my intuition that the man was a saint.

So, here is a lengthy thread with the best of what I found.

Dear @katie4louisiana:
Having watched your @CNN interview, including the remarkable ad in which you give birth, I have a question: You say when Roe was overturned, you considered moving out of state, as you feared you might be denied proper care for your high-risk pregnancy. 1/4
I myself am concerned at reports that some doctors post-Dobbs have hesitated to give women miscarriage care prior to fetal viability (nytimes.com/2022/07/20/us/…).
But here's the thing: You told CNN that when you considered moving, you were already _seven_months_ pregnant. 2/4
You said the same to @washingtonpost: wapo.st/3fLDXxx.
But at seven months/29 weeks, your unborn child was _viable_. No doctor in an anti-abortion state would deny you the proper care, even if you miscarried.
Why, then, did you consider moving out of state? 3/4
