Delivered by Joanna from the Parish of Saint Gabriel in the Diocese of Bandung, Indonesia. Isaiah 61: 9-11; Rs psalm 1 Sam 2: 1.4-5.6-7.8abcd; Luke 2: 41-51.ANANXIOUS HEART Thetitle for our meditation today is: An Anxious Heart. There was a girl of 5thgrade student of elementary school named Maria, playing Q and A (question andanswer) with her mother. She said: "Mom, answer this question. What is thedifference between Papa's heart and Mama's heart?" His mother tried tothink for a moment. Then she replied: "Papa's heart is a man's heart.Mama's heart is a woman's heart." Maria replied: "No. It's not theanswer." Her mother then continued: "Then what is the answer?""The answer is," said Maria, "Mama's heart is anxious, whilePapa's heart is indifferent." This child, of course, spoke according toher own experience with her parents. Therelationship of the heart between a mother and her child is the strongestrelationship between two human persons, more than any other kind ofrelationship that has ever existed in the world. Therefore, if a mother feelsanxious about her loved ones, surely this anxiety is an expression of a verydeep emotion in her heart. A mother's anxiety is not just a feeling ofdifficulty, uneasy or discomfort. More than that, mother becomes very sick,lost and paralyzed because half of her heart was broken into pieces. Thestory in the Gospel of Luke about the teenager Jesus who disappeared from thecare of his parents makes us understand that the worried heart came from themouth of the Virgin Mary. Like all mothers, Our Lady shows how much it hurtswhen part of her heart, or half of her life, which is her own Son missing. Amother's anxiety is like all major disasters, so the sky can open and heavenalso responds. Jesus had to answer the mother's anxiety so that she could calmdown, that He was really in His Father's house. Todaywe celebrate the most sacred Heart of Our Lady which helps us to understandthat the purity of her heart has the same role as the heart of the Lord JesusChrist. Both hearts give us solutions or answers to our problems in this world.Our Lady's anxious heart keeps her eyes open to see and point out any problemsor difficulties that each of us faces. Her anxious heart moves her to walk asfar as the ends of the earth and to reach all nations so as to bring thechildren of men to believe in God. Ifwe ourselves or the people we know and care about at this time have alreadydrifted away from the way of the Lord Jesus Christ; if the relationship betweenfriends or relatives has not improved; if there is still anger, hatred,resentment and envy towards our neighbours, let us realize that Our Lady is soworried about all this. She is working to fix all of this. Let'spray. In the name of the Father... O Father in heaven, may Your Spirit and theVirgin Mary always guide us and strengthen our commitment to walk in the pathof the Lord Jesus Christ. Glory to the Father and to the Son and to the HolySpirit ... In the name of the Father...

This book serves as a companion to the second volume, The Religious Potential of the Child 6 to 12 Years Old. The desire to have this essential text available in audio has been a long-held goal for many.

Delivered by Gladys from the Parish of Saint Gabriel in the Diocese of Bandung, Indonesia. 2 Corinthians 11: 1-11; Rs psalm 111: 1-2.3-4.7-8; Matthew 6: 7-15.GRATITUDE IS SUPPLICATION Our meditation today is entitled:Gratitude is Supplication. There is a boy, a student of elementary school namedIvan was praying in his room and could be heard by anyone outside. His Fatherand mother heard their son pray and approached the door to hear it moreclearly. About 2 minutes time Ivan prayed while sitting on his bed, his eyesclosed, and his hands attached to his chest. When he came out of his room, hismother asked: "Ivan, Mom and Dad heard you praying, but you did not ask orbeg for anything to God. You just said “thank you” and enjoyed to praise God.Why din't you ask something to God?" Ivan immediately replied: "Idon't want to ask Mam. Because I already have everything in Mom and Dad, I'lljust ask. God is so good Mam." This child, Ivan, teaches us a lesson.It is about a way of praying that makes thanksgiving and praise as the maincontent of the prayer, in which there are also supplications that conceive therequests according to each one's needs and interests. God knows everything,including our most hidden and smallest needs of our lives. What we need to dois to put ourselves before Him and express our worship, thanks and praise. A friend once said that when shepassed in one of the aisles in her housing complex, she met the owner of thebakery and they greeted each other briefly. She praised that the bread is thebest product and the advertisements of the bread are very interesting. Sheappreciated it very much because with the presence that bakery in the complex,people would just access to the shop just on foot. In the afternoon, an onlinedriver droped by the house of that friend and delivered a box of bread offeredfreely by the owner of the bakery. This story simply illustrates howthrough greetings, gratitude, appreciation, and praise, the gifts come to uswithout our effort to go and ask or buy. This really needs to be our way ofprayer and how we dispose ourselves to God. Our task is basically to givethanks, be grateful, obey His commandments, praise and worship Him. While withregards to our various needs, it will become the duty of God to take care,because God already knows our situation and needs. We are taught by Jesus the prayer of"Our Father", Jesus' own prayer, to introduce us that God is ourgenerous Father. This prayer of Jesus makes us confident about His providenceto each of us according to His will and meet our real situations. Every time wesay "Your will be done" we should open ourselves up and let His powerwork on us as He pleases. Let us pray ... In the name ofthe Father ... O most generous Father, we thank you for the prayer of Jesus sothat we can truly know You. Our Father in heaven ... In the name of the Father...

Delivered by Jack and Joanna from the Parish of Saint Gabriel in the Diocese of Bandung, Indonesia. Acts of the Apostles 28: 16-20.30-31; Rs psalm 11: 4.5.7; John 21: 20-25.NECESSARY INTERVETNION Our meditation today is entitled:Necessary Intervention. With this statement we want to express an appropriateand correct intervention. We can also be reminded that if one is not inclinedto interfere then he doesn't need to do so. If you feel obliged to intervene inanother's matter, just do it anyway. The Holy Spirit who moves us at the righttime, will allow us to intervene in the affairs of others or of common things,but at other moments He will prevent us from doing so. Many people often share theirexperiences, especially about personal life and the journey of their faith,with the help of daily meditation through this La Porta media. All gave theirappreciation and gratitude because this spiritual sharing serves to intervene intheir personal lives. A devout listener once wrote a message like this:"Father, I feel my life every day is disturbed by the pouring out of God'sword. I felt reprimanded, but at the same time I am consoled, calm, anddirected towards the wisdom of God." This is an example of doingintervention in the proper and right moment. For the apostle Peter, it seems hewas reprimanded by Jesus because he intervened with the affairs of otherdisciple who the Lord loved so much. He also intervened Jesus' own affairs.According to Jesus, Peter must take care of his matters before being busy withthe matters of others. In other words, there are always moments  that are not right to intervene. This alsohappened with the interest of Roman authority and the diputes of Jewishreligious leaders reagarding the sufferings and trials of the apostle Paulwhile he was in Rome. Our intervention with the matters ofothers is basically unavoidable. That's part of giving attention to them. Butin order to be a very positive act and as a service, we should be able to avoidthe two extremes that make an intervention wrong and negative on ourselves andothers. The first extreme is about theunnecessary, or precisely, excessive and improper time and place of making an intervention.To a person who was stressful and sad, we actually involved him in a discussionof something that made him more confused and depressed. The second is not doinganything or not at all intervening. A friend regretted that he could not helphis friend, when in fact he could provide his help, and as a result the friendsuffered a more severe accident. So, by avoiding these two extremes there isonly one choice, namely the action of intervention that is needed, at the righttime and place, according to one's need or interest. Let's pray. In the name of theFather ... Listen to our prayers, o Lord, as we beg for our mutual cooperationof individuals and communities or the society that really aims to improve ourquality of life according to Your will. Our Father who art in heaven ... In thename of the Father ...

Gubernur Jawa Barat Dedi Mulyadi kembali mengeluarkan kebijakan bagi pelajar di daerahnya yang memancing kontroversi. Tak cukup mengirim siswa "nakal" ke barak militer, KDM mengeluarkan aturan jam malam.Dalam surat edaran 23 Mei lalu, pelajar dilarang 'keluyuran' mulai pukul 21.00 WIB hingga 04.00 WIB. Hal itu disebut untuk menekan angka kriminalitas, mencegah pelajar terlibat balap liar, mabuk-mabukan, hingga aksi begal. Aparat hingga kades dikerahkan untuk penegakan aturan tersebut. Sejumlah daerah yang mulai memberlakukan jam malam antara lain Cianjur, Sukabumi, Bandung dan Depok.Sepaket dengan larangan jam malam, pelajar di Jawa Barat juga bakal masuk sekolah jam 6.30 pagi.  Penolakan muncul dari Forum Orang Tua Siswa (Fortusis) Jawa Barat yang menganggap aturan itu memberatkan dan tidak mempertimbangkan kondisi sosial.Lebih jauh soal kontroversi "paket disiplin" pelajar ala KDM ini, kita bahas di Ruang Publik KBR  bersama Pakar Pendidikan Itje Chodidjah dan Guru Besar Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia (UPI) Prof. Cecep Darmawan.

Delivered by Gladys from the Parish of Saint Gabriel in the Diocese of Bandung, Indonesia. Acts of the Apostles 22: 30; 23: 6-11; Rs psalm 16: 1-2a.5.7-8.9-10.11; Yohanes 17: 20-26.MAY THEY BECOME ONE The title for our meditation today is:May They Become One. This sentence comes from Jesus Himself, that is when Heprayed for the apostles, the disciples and all of His followers, at the momentof the last supper. The focus of a prayer of this type continues to inspire allour prayers with the intentions for communion and unity among us. This communion is the fundamentalnature of God's being and existence, namely the Trinity. Based on this, Jesusthen prayed that all of his followers will finally arrive at this goal. Butthere is one simple question as it goes: why does Jesus not reveal: “They mustbecome one”, but instead he says: “May they become one”? The most obvious reason is that Godgives freedom to every human person to choose communion or division anddisintegration. This is the same as the human freedom to choose to obey God ordisobey Him. In this world the battle field and struggle of life will determinewhether one really follows God or otherwise chooses another path to oppose Him.Every human being is blessed with freedom and intelligence to choose the pathto salvation. Another reason that we may not realizeis that preparation is always an important element in the pilgrimage of ourfaith in the world. The prayer of Jesus that we may unite in the world is anencouragement, therefore, we can prepare a strong and dignified unity as sonsand daughters of God. This preparation is like an increase of our passion tolong for eternal communion in heaven. Therefore to each one of us: neitherignore nor play and underestimate any kind of unity of God's children in theworld and rather think only the future communion in heaven. God does not pleasewith this type of belief. The next reason that maybe the highestone is that God is the only one God, and He dwells forever in heaven. To getthere we have to go through a long journey and process. There is no magic gameor highly-expressed transportation to get there. If there is no need of aprocess, then we need only one miracle to bring all of us together to heaven.This is not the way of God. God allows us to follow the process, and so we usethe prayer "May we become one". In all our efforts, we humans hopethat we can achieve the goal of communion with God. God does not want toeliminate the element of hope in us by using the word “must”. Hope is veryimportant for us humans. All our prayers clearly use the words "hopefully"or "may" and "will" or "later", because it is aconcrete sign of our hope.Let's pray. In the name of theFather ... O God Almighty, unity in You is our ultimate hope, may the HolySpirit sent by Your Son Jesus Christ unite us in this world in all our ways andsituations as our preparation to enjoy eternal communion in heaven. Hail Maryfull of grace ... In the name of the Father ...

Delivered by Joanna from the Parish of Saint Gabriel in the Diocese of Bandung, Indonesia. Acts of the Apostles 16: 1-10; Rs psalm 100: 1-2.3.5; John 15: 18-21.THE OPPOSING SPIRITS The title for our meditation today is:The Opposing Spirits. We want to understand this meditation from two opposingdirections. From where the Lord Jesus Christ and all the components in Hismission stands, the opposing spirit is surely an evil spirit with Satan as thecommander. Whereas from where the opponent stands,that is the the spirit of this world and Satan as its commander, the opposingspirit is goodness and truth of Jesus Christ manifested through Hisself-sacrifice to save the world and mankind. The holy Church continues to bearthid goodness and truth till this day. The evil spirit had indeed been defeatedby Jesus but he always waits for the best time to conquer its target namelyhuman persons. Both the Holy Spirit and the evil spirit are againtst eachother. Which one is superior depends on the free will of every human person to choose. Let us show one example. I was calm inmy room. There were no disturbances of evil thoughts, strange intentions and evilacts. There was also at that moment the presence of an evil spirit who wasstill waiting for my unawareness or lost of self-control, then it would temptand conquer me. That's how our daily life goes. The most crucial moment we willface is when the conflict of interest comes, namely choosing between good orevil, right or wrong, humble and pride and so on. A very important point here is that asfollowers of Christ, we must be able to distinguish the opposing spirits, theopposing orientation of life. We must know and be aware of interests that arenot in line with Jesus Christ. Christ has prepared us to have the ability todistinguish. He commands us to keep to His word. The stronger sign of the power ofGod's Spirit is expressed in the words of the Lord Jesus, as He says, "Ihave chosen you from this world". We belong to Jesus. So we have theability to make sure that there is a spirit that is contrary to Jesus and we,His followers. This is also shown in the experience of the two apostles, Pauland Barnabas, while they were undergoing an extraordinary mission. Saints arealso our examples in making of this distinction. So there are many examples around us.Through advice, spiritual guidance, discipline and spiritual assistance, we arehelped to be able to distinguish the opposing spirits. We are getting closer tothe Solemnity of the Pentecost, so we should have in our hearts and minds alonging for the gift of the Holy Spirit to each one of us. Let's pray. In the name of the Father... Lord Jesus Christ, strengthen us always with Your blessings, especiallywhen we are struggling and fighting against the interests of this world thatare contrary to You. You have won all the desires of this evil spirit and thewill of the world, so fill us with your Spirit. Our Father who art in heaven... In the name of the Father ...

Que la historia la escriben los más poderosos es una “ley” universal… con excepciones más numerosas y significativas de lo que uno piensa. Hace 70 años, se reunieron los líderes de los países asiáticos y africanos que habían conseguido su independencia recientemente. Esta cumbre, conocida como la conferencia de Bandung, por el nombre de la ciudad indonesia en la que se realizó, pasó a la historia por su magnitud, su alcance y por el contexto histórico particular en el que se realizó. Para entender qué fue la Conferencia de Bandung, cuáles fueron las razones principales que llevaron a convocarla, quiénes fueron sus protagonistas y cuáles fueron sus efectos, no solo los inmediatos, sino también los perennes, nos acompañan Pío García, Kelly Arévalo y David Castrillón, de la Universidad Externado de Colombia.

In April 1955, delegates from 29 Asian and African countries met in Bandung, Indonesia, to tackle pressing issues of peace, security, and economic development. Professor Wang Jinjie and Paul Frimpong reflect on Bandung's enduring legacy, discuss how its spirit continues to shape Asia–Africa relations, and explore how countries of the Global South can determine their own futures and build lasting collective resilience.

Es waren wenige Tage, die die Weltpolitik verändert haben. In den 1950er Jahren spielen Staaten Afrikas und Asiens international keine Rolle. Um das zu ändern, solidarisieren sich Staaten beider Kontinente. Von Linus Lüring

Award-winning author Neil Humphreys tells co-host Glenn van Zutphen his recent whirlwind trip to Tangkuban Perahu, the volcanic crater in Bandung, Indonesia. From the Star Voyager cruise ship to the high-speed Whoosh train in Jakarta, Neil made it through the mountainous, long and winding roads of West Java to visit one of the most spectacular sites in South-East Asia. The volcano was worth the trip, even though he nearly got left behind in Bandung. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I hope you are all well and staying safe! I was pondering the pollution of our worlds waterways this week and thought we could take on the discussion of some toxic and polluted (sometimes deadly) rivers. Obviously, I cannot speak on every single river that could qualify for these titles in one episode, so if you like this topic then we can do more in a future episode. Today however we are visiting West Java, Indonesia, where the Citarum River supplies water for drinking, bathing, cleaning, and irrigation for crops for millions of people. There also happen to be around 2,000 industries on its banks dumping waste such as heavy metals and toxic byproducts into the water. Solid waste such as plastic, diapers, and other household trash is also dumped in and along the river by residents of the capital city of Bandung and many villages living near its waters. In some areas, you cannot even see the surface of the water and dead fish and other animals float alongside the rubbish. This along with livestock waste and human sewage has made the river dangerous to those living near it and using it on a daily basis. We also discuss the Rio Tinto in Spain, where the water runs orange-red to blood red in color due to over 5,000 years of mining in the area. The water is acidic and filled with heavy metals and other mining byproducts. Oh, and we have to discuss the company that now operates the mine, conveniently called the Rio Tinto Company, and their many shady dealings all over the world. The Ganges is well known for a few things: it is a holy site for Hindus and it is heavily polluted with untreated sewage, human remains, industrial waste, and agricultural run-off. The water quality has been so bad that the incidence for illness after getting into the water is over 65%. Even, so, many Hindu pilgrims come to bathe ritually in this river and to dispose of human ashes as it is considered a place where sins are forgiven. I had to put at least one US river on here (because there are a lot of polluted rivers here as well), so I decided to go with the Ohio River (a hard decision as I was also thinking of the Mississippi and the Hudson as well). Most of the pollution here is caused by past industrial waste (including PFAs, dioxin, benzene, etc) and agricultural run-off. Oh and as a bonus, we head to the jungles of Peru to talk about one of my favorite rivers. Thank you to all of our listeners and supporters!

The relationship between fear people experience in their lives and the government often informs key questions about the rule of law and justice. In nations where the rule of law is unevenly applied, interpreting the people involved in its enforcement allows for contextualized understanding about why that unevenness occurs and is perpetuated. Joshua Barker's State of Fear: Policing a Postcolonial City published by Duke University Press (2024) examines policing in Bandung, the capital city of the province of West Java in Indonesia, to show how fear and violence are produced and reproduced. He makes analysis of the emergence of informal and formal forms of political order in Bandung based on ethnographic and historical evidence about neighborhood watch groups, street-level toughs, vigilantes, and people in the police, from clerks to officers. This book provides a compelling interpretive framework for understanding episodes of violence and different forms of authority in Indonesian state-society relations as it does for many other parts of the world where unresolved colonial legacies shape the production of policing.

Additionally, she is recognized as a Level 1 Formation Leader.  A particularly meaningful moment in her ministry was when she and her team brought the first CGS Formation Course to Indonesia in its native language.  Currently, Cecilia serves as a Catechist and Atrium Program Director at Renaissance Montessori School in Nokesville, VA, also a Level II Catechist at St. Elizabeth of Hungary Parish Church in Colonial Beach, VA.      Claire Paglia is a child of the atrium.

Instead it offers a glimpse into the religious life of the atrium, a specially prepared place for children to live out their silent request: “Help me come closer to God by myself.” Here we can see the child's spiritual capabilities and perhaps even find in our own souls the child long burdened with religious information. This book serves as a companion to the second volume, The Religious Potential of the Child 6 to 12 Years Old. The desire to have this essential text available in audio has been a long-held goal for many. The work of many hands has combined to bring this release to life as an audiobook.    Find out more about CGS:       Learn more about the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd     Follow us on Social Media-  Facebook at “The United States Association of the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd”  Instagram-  cgsusa  Twitter- @cgsusa  Pinterest- Natl Assoc of Catechesis of the Good Shepherd USA  YouTube- catechesisofthegoodshepherd 

It's Friday, January 10th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Muslims block construction of church in Indonesia Muslims in Indonesia said they will sue Catholic leaders to prevent completion of a church building after months of construction, reports Morning Star News. The St. Anthony Catholic Church in Bandung, the capital of West Java Province, obtained building permits. However, attorneys for area residents claim they were granted through improper means and without their permission. Christians in Indonesia say they are routinely pressured to make extra payments known as “grease” – essentially a bribe -- to local officials or residents in order to obtain construction permits in the 83% Muslim country. In John 15:18, Jesus said, “If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated Me first.” Judge temporarily blocks release of DOJ report on Trump case In America, Aileen Cannon, a Trump-appointed judge, ruled that special counsel Jack Smith's report on the federal classified document case against President-elect Donald Trump cannot be released pending more court proceedings, reports NewsNationNow.com. The move came after Trump's attorneys demanded that Attorney General Merrick Garland leave the release of the report up to the incoming administration. Back in July, Judge Cannon dismissed the classified documents case against Trump. She said Smith was illegally appointed. Smith's report was expected to be released “imminently” before objections by Trump's attorneys, saying the report would be “one-sided.” Trump wants Panama Canal back At a recent press conference in Mar-a-Lago, President-elect Trump outlined why he believes America should get the Panama Canal back. The 51-mile waterway, which was completed by America  in 1914, connects the Caribbean Sea with the Pacific Ocean. It cuts across the narrowest point of Panama. The Panama Canal shortcut greatly reduces the time for ships to travel between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, enabling them to avoid the lengthy, hazardous route around the southernmost tip of South America. In 1914, 1,000 ships went through the Panama Canal.  By 2012 however, more than 815,000 ships used the waterway shortcut. TRUMP: “The Panama Canal was built for our military. Look, the Panama Canal is vital to our country. It's being operated by China. China!  And we gave the Panama Canal to Panama. We didn't give it to China. They've abused that gift. It should have never been made, by the way. “Giving the Panama Canal is why Jimmy Carter lost the election, in my opinion, more so maybe, than the hostages. The hostages were a big deal. It's a bad part of the Carter legacy. He was a very fine person, but that was a big mistake. We lost 38,000 people. It cost us the equivalent of a trillion dollars.” Gary Bauer, President of American Values, wrote, “Panama is likely in violation of the treaty it made with us when we handed over control of the canal. The treaty mandates that nothing be done at the canal that threatens America's security. But Panama has allowed communist China to gain footholds on both ends of the canal. Trump's strong language is what a president should say, which is why Joe Biden hasn't said it.” California fires claimed 2,000 buildings and 5 lives Many images of wildfire devastation coming over the newswires made the City of Angels look every bit like Hades: raging infernos, charred skeletal remains of homes, a smoke-filled sky, and weeping residents, notes The Hollywood Reporter. According to the Los Angeles Times, firefighters battled multiple blazes overnight as whipping winds, with gusts up to 100 miles per hour, fueled three major wildfires. The Palisades Fire burned more than 15,800 acres and numerous homes, businesses and landmarks in Pacific Palisades. It reached westward along the Pacific Coast Highway, toward Malibu. The Eaton Fire burned more than 10,000 acres and many structures in Altadena and Pasadena. And the Sunset Fire exploded around 5:45 p.m. yesterday and appeared to be burning south toward Hollywood Boulevard. More than 2,000 homes, businesses and other buildings have been damaged or destroyed and at least five people have died. Plus, 30,000 people evacuated their homes. Actor James Woods saves 94-year-old man in fire with phone call Appearing on CNN, actor James Woods tells a providential story about the fire. WOODS: “We have a neighbor who is 94 years old, who has dementia. I said there were no cars on the driveway. We would go over to help him get in his chair, you know, sometime, if he fell, with the caregiver. But I knew he was in the hospital. “God was on his side. I decided to call his son in Massachusetts and said, ‘Hey, Francis, just to be sure, your dad's still in the hospital, right?' He said, ‘No, he got home last night, and there's a new caregiver, and I don't have the number.' “They wouldn't let us back up. So, I finally got through to 9-1-1, and said, ‘You gotta go check on this guy.' I call my neighbor, who hadn't evacuated yet. He was on his roof, fighting his fire. I said, ‘Go in and check on him.' He went. He said, ‘The door's open, there's nobody here.' He went in and yelled. He said, ‘No, nobody here.' I said, ‘Look, just go behind the pantry. There's a little room. We can see him during the day. He likes to sit there because there's a garden. “He went in and found him. He'd been left alone. And it turned out the fire department made the new caregiver leave, and they said, ‘We're coming back for him.' Well, they hadn't come back for him. I'm hoping that they would have but, you know, there was so much chaos. “It was like an inferno. Every house was on fire around us, and he got him out, and the house burned down about an hour later.” Psalm 138:7 says, “Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You preserve my life.” With a broken heart, Woods revealed that his own house was consumed by flames after he evacuated. WOODS: “At 11:49 last night, all the smoke alarms in our house alerted our phones that our house that we had just renovated for three years and had just finally moved into about three months ago. You know, all the smoke alarms are going off, so that's hardly [gets emotional] a good sign. “So, I'm I'm not sure, but it it wouldn't make any difference, because, you know, the whole street's burned down. So, I mean, even if you go back to your home. We were out on our driveway. I looked at the smoke was so black. It was a house across the street was on fire. The house next door is on fire.” McDonalds abandons woke DEI policies, embraces “Golden Rule” And finally, fast food giant McDonald's is the latest major corporation to distance itself from the woke “diversity, equity, and inclusion” policies. Instead, they want to emphasize the “Golden Rule,” reports LifeSiteNews.com. Matthew 7:12 says, “"In everything, do to others what you would have them do to you.” The Associated Press reports that McDonalds plans to abandon specific diversity targets for senior leadership, end a program aimed at diversity training for suppliers, and pause participation in “external surveys,” such as those conducted by the radical homosexual pressure group called the Human Rights Campaign. McDonald's cited the “shifting legal landscape” after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that race-based affirmative action was unconstitutional in 2023 as contributing to the changes. Conservative activist Robby Starbuck, who has successfully pressured other companies to reverse woke policies, said he had informed McDonald's that he planned to release a report on them as well.
