Just re-watched Spotlight, the 2015 film about how the Boston Globe uncovered a massive coverup of child abuse by the Catholic Church. Blown away (again, like last time I saw it). Both about the quality of the movie, and about the content. The rot in the institutions, both church and the society around it that helped cover it up, is breathtaking. And I'm sure variations of this shit are still going on today, all around the world.

The relationship between episcopal genealogy and ideology in the Roman Catholic Church
In this study we investigate how hierarchical structures within the Roman Catholic Church shape the ideological orientation of its leadership. The full episcopal genealogy dataset comprises over 35,000 bishops, each typically consecrated by one principal consecrator and two co-consecrators, forming a dense and historically continuous directed network of episcopal lineage. Within this broader structure, we focus on a dataset of 245 living cardinals to examine whether genealogical proximity corre…

Fr James Martin:
In an extraordinary move, the Bishop of San Bernardino has "dispensed" (freed a person) from the obligation to attend Masses on Sunday and Holy Days of Obligation if the person fears ICE. Bishop Rojas (wisely) says that he is guided by the desire to extend pastoral care to all in his diocese, particularly those who "face fear and hardship."

After all, they called Joe Biden, the former Senator from CapitalOne and a devout Catholic, a socialist and communist.
One of the differences between the Right and Left in the USA is that the Right is dedicated to the idea of political tribal solidarity and social binaries, while the Left puts an overriding emphasis on its own diversity, that of the Right, and that of society.
It is part of how they manage to maintain themselves in power.

Leah McElrath (@leahmcelrath.bsky.social)
Given how occasionally fractious the discourse can become on Bluesky, it is important to keep in mind that right-wing extremists seldom ever differentiate among liberals, progressives, leftists, or any other stripe of politically left-of-center individuals or groups. We are ALL the enemy to them.

On some Classes of Reversible 2-head Automata
Deterministic 2-head finite automata which are machines that process an input word from both ends are analyzed for their ability to perform reversible computations. This implies that the automata are backward deterministic, enabling unique forward and backward computation. We explore the computational power of such automata, discovering that, while some regular languages cannot be accepted by these machines, they are capable of accepting some characteristic linear languages, e.g., the language …
