U.S. Catholic Reveals ‘What Catholics Can Learn from Islam About the Pursuit of Happiness’

U.S. Catholic says that it has a million readers, and those who don’t use each issue to line their bird cages are getting a bracing dose of leftist religion, as the magazine itself proudly boasts: “U.S. Catholic puts faith in the context of everyday life, with a strong focus on social justice. Since 1935, U.S. Catholic has been a courageous, forward-thinking forum for discussion among a broad range of voices.” Hey, if there’s anything we need, it’s more folks who are willing to be stunning and brave, and U.S. Catholic is happy to oblige with a new article about how much we can learn from the religion that leftists of all creeds seem to love best: Islam.

Young US men are joining Russian churches promising ‘absurd levels of manliness’

“A lot of people ask me: ‘Father Moses, how can I increase my manliness to absurd levels?'”

In a YouTube video, a priest is championing a form of virile, unapologetic masculinity.

Skinny jeans, crossing your legs, using an iron, shaping your eyebrows, and even eating soup are among the things he derides as too feminine.

There are other videos of Father Moses McPherson – a powerfully-built father of five – weightlifting to the sound of heavy metal.

Toronto man discovers $1,500 Hwy. 407 bill after criminals duplicated his licence plate

Camilo Sanchez was at home last Tuesday night when two Toronto police detectives knocked at his door, flashed their badges at him and informed him the licence plates to his white 2018 Dodge Durango had been duplicated.

The 33-year-old maintenance company owner said he couldn’t believe what he was hearing.

“Then they told me that it’s been used in violent crimes and theft around the city,” Sanchez recounted, adding he then answered a few questions to confirm he wasn’t the suspect wanted in these alleged crimes and reviewed photos of the suspect vehicle that looked eerily similar to his own. A spokesperson for Toronto Police Service confirmed Sanchez’s plates had in fact been duplicated but would not provide further comment due to the active investigation.

Mark Carney’s daughter could be among international students caught in Harvard-Trump fight

A U.S. judge has provided Harvard University a temporary reprieve from the Trump administration’s move to block enrolment of foreign students, including Canadians.

In a lawsuit filed early Friday in federal court in Boston, Harvard said the government’s action violates the First Amendment, the Associated Press reports, and will have an “immediate and devastating effect” on its more than 7,000 international visa holders.


Why do I doubt she’ll be shown the door.

Mark Carney’s promise to ‘build, baby, build’ has some Canadians fearing the worst

OTTAWA—Prime Minister Mark Carney is on a mission to “build, baby, build.” And he wants to do it fast.

It’s a goal that was central to the Liberal leader’s pitch in an election campaign dominated by U.S. President Donald Trump’s economic aggression towards Canada.

Seized by a desire to Trump-proof the Canadian economy and supercharge its growth, Carney has vowed to speed up resource development and streamline federal project approvals, all while maintaining environmental standards and respecting the rights of Indigenous groups and getting them a share of the wealth from the resources on their lands.

Amy Hamm: No, Joly, we don’t want America’s far-left academic refugees

We surveyed Canadians on the top three fixes for the country’s ailing economy. Respondents unanimously agreed: pipelines, pipelines, and pipelines. Okay, we didn’t actually run a survey, but any sensible Canadian knows what the real answer to our economic woes is — even those who carry a carbon footprint like an albatross around their neck. And even, it now appears, Quebecers.

We are tired of being broke, and at (trade) war with the vastly superior economy of the U.S. We want to unleash our oil and gas potential.
