Links: Pope Francis on the cross; corporations respond to Georgia voting law
Jesus being bit on the cross is not in scripture. Such sentiments harken back to the scandal of St. Anselm's Christology. Francis misses the point of the story, that Jesus was on a divine vision quest into our forsaken hearts. It is a unitive sacrifice, not because God needs it, but because we do. We respond by our unity with others.

The power of prayer is discernment, not bribery. It is the Sisters in Catholic Health that have the greater part in this case. Mask shaming, on the other hand, does nothing to stop a virus spread by heavy sneezes in private, or the belief among the suffering that the second round of symptoms will simply go away like the first. Doctors need to pray more.
Cruise ships will dock nearby Venice, so now it will be impossible to get a water taxi.
