sarebbe interessante oggi, domenica della festa di Cristo Re, ascoltare le omelie nelle chiese cattoliche dell'America del messianismo politico di Trump (un messianismo ben poco biblico)

"The refusal to declare enemies to the right, both in politics and in the Church, has produced a sorcerer’s apprentice effect."

Catholic Traditionalism After Francis
Traditionalism today is less about questioning Vatican II theology and liturgy and more about waging broader culture wars.

non sono un esperto delle "nuove teologie" del nostro tempo: ma so per esperienza che una gran parte dei giovani di oggi non hanno idea di cosa sia la parabola del buon Samaritano e hanno una vaghissima idea di chi fosse Gesù, cosa abbia detto e fatto, come sia stato creduto nel corso del tempo.

Pope hosts Hollywood stars at Vatican, laments decline in movie-going

il momento MAGA dell’evangelicalismo protestante in America e la crisi del suo sionismo biblico-politico sta lasciando spazio a un emergente sionismo cattolico in influenti circoli nella teologia anglo-americana. Ne diro’ a Gerusalemme la settimana prossima.

Canadians are keeping up their efforts to boycott travel to the U.S.

The ongoing decline in air and car travel is part of a broader shift in Canadians’ attitudes toward the U.S. amid tensions over President Trump’s tariffs and the rhetoric that many Canadians feel is condescending.
Canadian Travel to the United States Falls for 10th Consecutive Month
The drop has been reflected in air and car travel, according to Canadian statistics. Tensions over tariffs placed by the Trump administration spurred calls for Canadians to spend their money at home.
