For Roman Catholics, the beginning of the priesthood is a process of formation that can last for years before entering seminary. If he is Roman Catholic, I would recommend he begin speaking with his local pastor or diocesan office and express his desire to enter the priesthood. From there it will be a process of spiritual formation for them to determine whether or not he is a suitable candidate. The candidacy process lasts for years, so be prepared for that. There is also the diaconate in some Dioceses which is also an ordained order that is one step below the priesthood. In general, pastoral positions are difficult for anyone with ASD to enter because of the socially intense component and require a great deal more prayer and reliance on the Holy Spirit.(less)

How to Actually Defeat Trump and MAGA

I want to talk about the latest "assassination attempt" on Trump, but first we need to talk about Nero.
Nero reigned for fourteen years as emperor. When the great fire which burned close to half of Rome broke out, he needed a scapegoat. He somewhat arbitrarily chose Christians as they tended to be headquartered in the Trans Tiberum district and that district was known for gangs of arsonists.
