On #ArmisticeDay, we remember the service and sacrifice of all those who have lost their lives in conflict.

The Noahโs Ark Project is the most attacked study in archeological history. Had we been studying the Titanic, nobody would have even blinked an eye.
Itโs because of the implications of Noahโs Ark being proven real that you see secular scientists become completely unhinged.
Itโs because it proves that Darwinism is a lie, it proves we canโt evolve outside of our kind, and it proves that we arenโt a product of evolutionary apes from millions of years ago.
It means every single human on earth can trace their ancestry back to the eight survivors on Noahs Ark, less than 5000 years ago.

The Bishops of Argentina are so happy to have the Pope in their country.
THE COLLECT OF THE DAY
Almighty Father,
whose will is to restore all things
in your beloved Son, the king of all:
Govern the hearts and minds of those in authority,
and bring the families of the nations,
divided and torn apart by the ravages of sin,
to be subject to his just and gentle rule;
who is alive and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.

King Charles III was left drenched and without an umbrella when a torrential downpour interrupted celebrations of Antigua and Barbuda's independence day on Sunday.
Queen Camilla was swiftly given an umbrella when the rain started, while the King was seen gesturing to be given one of his own.
I should be most obliged if you would spare a moment to peruse my latest article on that most extraordinary contrivance known as the umbrella. I assure you, it is rather more than a device for keeping one's head dry.

El mejor video que verรกs hoy!
Un niรฑo le preguntรณ al Papa Francisco, si su papรก, que era ateo y habรญa fallecido, podรญa estar en el cielo.
El Papa Francisco le respondiรณ al niรฑo que Dios no abandonarรญa a un hombre que, a pesar de ser ateo, habรญa sido un buen padre y habรญa bautizado a sus hijos.
El emotivo encuentro ocurriรณ en abril de 2018 durante una visita del pontรญfice a la parroquia de San Pablo de la Cruz en Roma.
Un niรฑo pequeรฑo llamado Emanuele se acercรณ al Papa para hacerle una pregunta, pero rompiรณ a llorar por la reciente muerte de su padre.
Tras abrazarlo y consolarlo en privado, el Papa Francisco pidiรณ permiso al niรฑo para compartir su duda con los demรกs y dar una respuesta pรบblica.

Disappointed to see West Ham post about Diwali today, but nothing to mark Remembrance Sunday.

In peace and honour rest you here, my sons!'

This is the Grave of the Unknown Warrior in the Abbey's nave, which honours the fallen of the First World War and more recent conflicts.

ALT A high-angle shot captures the Grave of the Unknown Warrior in Westminster Abbey, dramatically illuminated in a dark, empty space. The black marble gravestone lies flat on a stone floor, bordered by a thick, rectangular frame of vibrant red poppies. A spotlight shines directly from above, highlighting the grave while leaving the surrounding church floor and background in complete shadow. The brass lettering engraved on the stone is legible, starting with "BENEATH THIS STONE RESTS THE BODY OF A BRITISH WARRIOR UNKNOWN BY NAME OR RANK..."
After a lifetime spent pursuing the Grail, arguing with grammarians, disputing theological subtleties and occasionally offending dragons, I have arrived at a rather agreeable conclusion: there are mornings when the greatest achievement of a gentleman is simply to remain undisturbed.

Sir Timothy Monday is a philologist and grammarian by vocation, and an amateur theologian by conviction.
A lifelong student of language, he is fascinated by the historical development of words, the architecture of grammar, and the subtle relationship between language, thought and meaning.
His interests extend from Anglo-Saxon runes and culture, and Old English, to the preservation of classical English expression.
As an amateur theologian, he approaches Scripture, Christian doctrine and the traditions of the Anglican Church with scholarly curiosity, reverence and a particular affection for the King James Bible and the Book of Common Prayer.
He regards language not merely as a means of communication, but as one of the great inheritances of civilisation, deserving both intellectual discipline and affectionate preservation.
