What, you say it's an island because the only guy in antiquity who wrote about it as if he had any intimate knowledge of the subject said so?

You fool!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantis#Plato's_dialogues

Atlantis, at least the Atlantis Plato wrote about, was a similar topsy-turvy version of Athens as Wonderland was a topsy-turvy version of Victorian England, but with an added moral lesson. The whole idea was- "wouldn't it be nutty if Athens was like this? Well we're lucky it isn't because look what happened." It starts with Socrates asking for a description of a perfect society, and then Critias says, "okay, here's the perfect society and here's what went down and here's why we don't want that." And basically Atlantis believers say it was real because Critias said so. Because Plato said he did. In order to make a point that had nothing to do with history.

But sure, a global space-level civilization, we'll go with that.

The new norms reframe the Catholic Church’s evaluation process by essentially taking off the table whether church authorities will declare a particular vision, stigmata or other seemingly divinely inspired event supernatural.

Instead, the new criteria envisages six main outcomes, with the most favorable being that the church issues a noncommittal doctrinal green light, a so-called “nihil obstat.” Such a declaration means there is nothing about the event that is contrary to the faith, and therefore Catholics can express devotion to it.

...

The norms also allow that an event might at some point be declared “supernatural,” and that the pope can intervene in the process. But “as a rule,” the church is no longer in the business of authenticating inexplicable events or making definitive decisions about their supernatural origin.

For you MST3K fans, this proves that cats are superior to Nick. Even cats get into Castleton.

Believe it or not, no aliens were likely involved! Just some very smart humans and a massive amount of labor.

It's something like 'chitlins?'

Article is a little old, but they posted this today:

No more blarney puffballs and lamb coddle.

Their mahogany bar is one of only three built by the Brunswick company that exist in America.

I hope whatever takes over the building remains a pub and keeps the tradition alive. It's been a pub for so long that it was one of the photos showing old bars in the intro to Cheers.
