“This court, by its refusal to consider the lawlessness of weapons of mass destruction, is essentially declaring the end of the world to be acceptable. If the trident D-5 missiles are ever launched and millions of people die...one fact will remain clear: No laws were broken.”

The master had heard and repeated an interesting theory whereby a race of “mole people” was actually responsible for the harvest shortfall on the estate. He wasn’t necessarily saying this was true, but “People could make up their own minds.” #TolstoysTalesofTrump

After the 2026 election we foresaw a need to name the spiritual crisis confronting our country, and to appeal to people of faith to rise to this challenge. The result was "Faith and Resistance in the Age of Trump." See this month's publisher's letter at orbisbooks.com

The @netflix documentary "My Octopus Teacher" is an extraordinary meditation on what it would mean to be in relationship with Creation. If there is that much to learn from a mollusk, what other lessons are we missing?

Sometimes when the affairs of the estate, the bickering of his family, and the nagging threat of criminal prosecution became more than he could bear, the master fantasized of fleeing it all, wandering the earth in pursuit of wisdom and playing golf. #TolstoysTalesofTrump

“Remember that you have only one soul; that you have only one death to die; that you have only one life, which is short and has to be lived by you alone; and that there is only one glory, which is eternal. If you do this, there will be many things about which you care nothing.”

Regarding the law, the master didn’t need to study the founding masters to divine their original intent. The same blood ran through his veins. #TolstoysTalesofTrump
