This document discusses two subtle enemies of holiness - gnosticism and pelagianism. It describes how gnosticism relies too heavily on subjective experience and knowledge over charity. Pelagianism mistakenly believes that salvation is based on human willpower rather than God's grace. The document warns that we must approach doctrine with humility and avoid becoming rigid in our thinking. We are saved by God's freely given grace, not by our own works, and we should cooperate with grace through humble acceptance of God's gifts.
Pope Francis in the fifth year of his papacy publishes his third apostolic exhortation, titled Gaudete et Exsultate which means ‘Rejoice and be Glad’. The subject of document is “the call to holiness in today’s world.” The pontiff launches a plain, fundamental message, showing that what matters, what is the essential to Christian life is to ‘seek and find God in all things.’
Gaudete et Exsultate - The call to holinessEnrique Soros
Pope Francis beautifully goes through the characteristics of a modern saint, meek, poor in spirit, merciful, with a clean heart, working for peace, etc., and shows us two subtle enemies to combat.
In an appendix, we relate these ideas presented by the Pope to the organic and mechanistic thinking developed by Fr. Kentenich, given the clear connection between the two, and since we are convinced that the future of the Church and the world depends on our developing the organic mentality and living according to it.

One of three sacraments of initiation
Confirmation is a completion of our baptismal grace
Leading the individual toward a more intimate union with Christ
This presentation was given on August 10, 2013 to the parish catechetical leaders in Savannah, GA. The first half is the importance of continually forming yourself and the second half is about forming your catechists . Ongoing formation is important for all of us.
In talking about the humanity of Christ we must not rely on our reason alone rather we look in the eyes of faith so that we may see the truth clearly. On the other hand, we cannot separate the reason and faith for they must go hand in hand.
As St. Augustine says, faith seeks understanding. Moreover, scripture presents to us the evidences to prove the humanity of Christ. This will be our guide to have an idea on the life of Christ. In addition, the truth by which our early fathers of the church passed on to us will be part of this topic. The error of the teaching of some early Christians will also be included.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. GNOSTICISMOY PELAGIANISM
two forms of doctrinal
or disciplinary security
that give rise “to a
narcissistic and
authoritarian elitism,
whereby instead of evangelizing,
one analyses and classifies others,
and instead of opening
the door to grace, one exhausts
his or her energies
in inspecting and verifying.
GE35
3. Gnosticism presumes “a purely subjective faith
whose only interest is a certain experience
or a set of ideas and bits of information
which are meant to console and enlighten,
but which ultimately keep one imprisoned
in his or her own thoughts and feelings GE36
Contemporary Gnosticism
4. An intellect without God and without flesh
that a person’s perfection is measured
not by the information or knowledge they possess,
but by the depth of their charity GE37
5. Gnosticism exercises a deceptive attraction for some people,
since the gnostic approach is strict and allegedly pure,
and can appear to possess a certain harmony
or order that encompasses everything GE38
6. A Doctrine without mystery
while unduly exalting knowledge or a specific experience,
it considers its own vision of reality to be perfect. GE40
7. Someone who wants everything to be clear and sure
presumes to control God’s transcendence. GE41
8. God is mysteriously present in the life of every person,
in a way that he himself chooses, and
we cannot exclude this by our presumed certainties. GE 42
9. The limits of reason
It is not easy to grasp the truth that we have received from the Lord.
And it is even more difficult to express it. GE43
10. doctrine, or better, our understanding and expression of it, “
is not a closed system, devoid of the dynamic capacity
to pose questions, doubts, inquiries… GE 44
11. what we think we know should always motivate us to respond
more fully to God’s love. Indeed, “you learn so as to live:
theology and holiness are inseparable” GE45
12. St Francis of Asisi wrote to St Antonio de Padua:
“I am pleased that you teach sacred theology to the brothers,
provided that… you do not extinguish the spirit of prayer
and devotion during study of this kind” GE 46
13. “There are activities that, united to contemplation, do not prevent the latter,
but rather facilitate it, such as works of mercy and devotion” GE46
14. Contemporary Pelagianism
The same power that the gnostics attributed to the intellect,
others now began to attribute to the human will,
to personal effort GE 48
15. It was forgotten that everything “depends not on human will or exertion,
but on God who shows mercy” (Rom 9:16)
and that “he first loved us” (cf. 1 Jn 4:19). GE 48
16. A will lacking humility
pray to him humbly: “Grant what you command,
and command what you will”. GE49
18. In order to be blameless, as he would have us,
we need to live humbly in his presence, cloaked in his glory;
we need to walk in union with him,
recognizing his constant love in our lives. GE 51
19. An often overlooked Church teaching
we are justified not by our own works or efforts,
but by the grace of the Lord,
who always takes the initiative. GE 52
20. “Even the desire to be cleansed comes about in us
through the outpouring and working of the Holy Spirit”.
Sinodo de Orange GE 53
21. “We are said to be justified gratuitously because nothing that precedes
justification, neither faith nor works, merits the grace of justification; for
‘if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works; otherwise, grace
would no longer be grace’ (Rom 11:6)”. GE 53
22. with regard to God, there is no strict right
to any merit on the part of man.
Between God and us there is
an immeasurable inequality”. GE54
23. Yet we cannot celebrate this free gift of the Lord’s friendship
unless we realize that our earthly life and
our natural abilities are his gift. GE 55
24. Only on the basis of God’s gift,
freely accepted and humbly received,
can we cooperate by our own efforts
in our progressive transformation. GE 56
