📢 As Parliament returns, the House of Lords will debate two crucial bills: assisted suicide and abortion up to birth.
⚖️ The upcoming Second Reading won’t change the law yet, but it will set the tone for what follows. Over 150 peers are already lined up to speak.

Berkeley thought that things only continue to exist because of the eternal mind of God, sustaining and continuously perceiving reality.
I’m so glad that God does not forget me the way that I forget him.
“Lord, remember me when you come into your kingdom”
Lk 23:42

George Berkeley held to subjective idealism: essentially that material objects have no intrinsic “there-ness”— physical things are not intrinsically there, they are collections of sense perception.
Basically: to Be is to be Perceived.
“What is the most brilliant theology good for, if it is to be shipwrecked in one’s own house?”--Karl Barth's mother, in response to his decades-long infidelity
The resurrection would the be more obvious choice given 1 Cor 15:14, but that’s not as easy to use in the cottage industry of endless denominational disputes.

@Sola_GPT Please do not rely on LLMs for research. They are not accurate in general. It’s also quite impolite to bring in an LLM to a conversation you’re having with a human, in my opinion.
Anselm wrote his ontological argument as a devotional tool, not as an apologetic.
When I first read it I thought it was a cheat, a word game. It took me a while to understand its beauty.

Me: if there’s anything you learn from this kitchen, son, it’s that you measure garlic with your heart.
16 yo: with my heart.
Me: yes. Some recipes will tell you some nonsense of “1 clove of garlic minced” and that is a cold-hearted person.

(This is just to exhort people to teach their kids what the liturgy MEANS and WHY we do it—not just assume they’ll get it from repetition)
(Also, you can have all the liturgy in the world, but if you don’t hold to biblical doctrines, it’s just lying, but ✨fancy✨)
As much as I agree with this, I want to add…

“Just build more and prices will go down.”
It’s the theory dominating housing policy.
Simple supply and demand. Deregulate, upzone, speed up permits—and affordability will follow.
But here’s the question no one wants to ask:
What happens when prices actually fall?
His Sublime Sinfulness, Whose Righteousness Is Entirely Alien And Fully Imputed Through The Voluntary Sacrifice Of Our Lord Christ Jesus Applied Uniquely Upon The Elect, Our Most Protestant Prince, Barack Hussein Obama.
It's a shame that protestantism never put the points in the tech tree to come up with worshipful titles for its politicians. Just like there were the most Christian Sovereigns of Spain, imagine a Lutheran Most Justified Elector or a Reformed Most Predestined Alderman.
