All hail Mary! Lady full of grace, The child that you bear will save the human race!
Through you the great I Am Takes on the flesh of man And He comes to save us from our sin!
(Happy Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God, and Happy New Year!)

JOKE-OGRAPHY: 1. The internet has a long and storied history of random, unsolicited Christian Sonic fanart. I’m not sure why this is, but as a random, unsolicited Christian myself, I figured it was time I added to that legacy. This cartoon features Shadow the Hedgehog (Sonic’s edgy rival) praying the rosary before a shrine to the Blessed Virgin Mary. He says “Ave Maria” because that’s the first line of the “Hail Mary” (a popular Catholic prayer) in Latin, but is also a reference to Shadow’s best friend from his tragic backstory: Maria. 2. Sonic Adventure was one of the first games I remember playing. My brothers, cousins, and I would spend all our limited gaming time playing it on my uncle’s Sega Dreamcast. When the sequel, Sonic Adventure 2, came out, my grandparents got it for me as an early birthday gift. Even my sisters enjoyed the games because of the adorable Chao Garden (bring it back, Sega, you cowards). Anyway, the series has had its ups and downs since then, but it’ll always hold a special place in my heart. Sonic Adventure 2 also introduced Shadow the Hedgehog and his tragic backstory with Maria, which the new movie, Sonic the Hedgehog 3, finally adapted for the big screen. I never thought I’d see the day. 3. The description under the cartoon is a parody of “All Hail Shadow”, a theme song from the notorious Shadow the Hedgehog spin-off game from 2005. Instead of the original lyrics, I've turned it into a revamped “Hail Mary” prayer, because all things will submit to God.

[W]e've lost, largely, a sense of objective morality. Once that disappears, there's no objective ground for your moral position; then if you're opposed to me, all I've got on are psychological categories to explain your opposition, right? I can't say, oh, you're opposed to me because you have a legitimate argument you're making, appealing to objective values. If that has evanesced, all I've got left are the psychological categories of "he likes me" or "he doesn't like me." - "Obviously, he hates me because he's arguing against me"; no, no, I can argue against your moral position precisely as an expression of, of love.
Bishop Robert Barron
