Does Trump have an heir to take over MAGA when he's gone?

Do you think Trump has an heir apparent, or is it one of those things where no one in Washington dares talk about it for fear of reminding Trump of his mortality/term limits? I know the obvious answer is Vance, but Vance does not wield the same kind of fear and influence that Tr…

Would you enter a relationship with someone who is Catholic?

I am friends with a great guy who is Catholic. We want many of the same things in terms of life, love, and family but he is Catholic. I set the boundary saying, I’m not okay with not being of the same faith with my husband and thus having a divided family in that regard. Here’s…

I need prayers

I have been avoiding the Parish I was received into because I had some interactions with the people there that hurt me. Please pray for me that I find a church where I can feel like I belong. Where I would be safe. Not sure why asking for prayers got removed from the Catholic th…
