Went to a based woke (Gospel) Mass today.
Father said it is unchristian to oppose DEI,
Some politicians are trying to divide Christians by force through ICE,
Referred to “white” Christians as European Americans,
Included liberation theology themes in the homily,

Philosophy Twitter is bad for philosophy and public understandings of philosophy.
Most of the large accounts on there are bullshit artists that copy/paste from online encyclopedias.

I LOVE being Catholic.
Surprised that it was Steubenville diocese conservatism that challenged my faith and not academic philosophy 🤔

Why is Twitter plagued with Catholics that subscribe to young earth creationism.
Has X become a website for people to take pride in their stupidity?

Man that killed priest in Kansas was quoted as saying that the Church should follow Trump’s example.
These people literally worship the man as God. Yall need help.

According to the LDS Geneology website, which isn’t 100% accurate but a good generalization I assume,
I have a ton of French ancestry I didn’t know about
I have African-American ancestry
I’m descended from BOTH Montaigne and Böhme.
This is too cool.

Good news: There is a mini-Renaissance emerging in the re-valuation of the humanities in the San Francisco Bay Area and Pacific Northwest (Metro Seattle, Portland, and Sacramento).
Bad News: It is in the realm of big business and technology management.

My academic advisor has two doctorates (apparently philosophy was sensitive about degree labels then; harder to make a career transition)
One is from UNC, Chapel Hill
One is from Duke
He roots for both teams in basketball 🤣
Probably the only person on the planet who could get away with this

Maybe the Jesuits have a point.
Gain professional experience or higher education before joining.
All the 18 year old, fresh out of high school, seminarians I see on Twitter are politically radicalized. Many are sympathizers for Franco.
Maybe the minimum ordination age should be older nowadays?

Met with my advisor today.
Reminder, I am in the philosophy department.
He said I should remove references to Origen in my thesis because the ones to Augustine do the job,
Augustine is more familiar,
And Origen might come off as weird to some on the department 😂

Took a metaphysics of death class in the Fall.
Sounds interesting.
No, it was the most inane course I’ve ever taken.
Readings: “does someone experience death before or after the heart stops”
Pretending to know these solutions, yet calling metaphysics and theology irrational is laughable.

Cardinal John O’Connor and St. John of the Cross were both Jewish according to Halacha.
Many Jewish Christians exists who are not converts. I get tired of explaining this to racists who question my ethnic identity.
