So good white Christian Greg Gianforte assaulted a reporter (a fact confirmed by dangerous Marxist network FOX)… and the Party of Brownshirt Lovers of Threats and Violence loved it, which is why Mona Charen had the unenviable task of trying to tell this party of neutronium-skulled thugs that they must stop denying, excusing and defending it. They are not listening, of course, because they are violent thugs and enemies of America. But worst of all, it is Christian thought leaders... Read more
…the Muslims of Egypt with the power of forgiveness and their Christ-empowered will to mercy. Had dinner last week with an Egyptian family across the street. Lovely, sweet folk. They are Muslim and the husband’s best buddy growing up was Christian. Just the nicest people. The bulk of Egyptian Muslims are in their boat, watching the horrors inflicted on Copts by a minority of murderous thugs and moved by the beauty of the Coptic witness to the mercy and love...

Part 6 of my series on the Death Penalty over at The Catholic Weekly. But slowly and surely the Spirit presses on the conscience of Christian civilisation. The practices they inherited from their ancestors (and the cruelties they devised on their own) – evisceration, hanging, drawing, quartering, skinning alive, burning at the stake, drowning, pressing people to death, beheading and all the other legal forms of state-sponsored killing – lose their charms and cease to be public entertainments.

…is in leaving a massively incompetent, stupid, and unstable narcissist in command of the mightiest military and national security state in the history of the world and betting that there will not be some really serious crisis not of his own making. The crises this buffoon has already visited on his party and his country have badly shaken a party so corrupt that it is having trouble figuring out that he needs to go. What happens if something serious occurs,... Read more
After very intelligently confirming that he betrayed Israeli assets to the Russian while standing next to a mortified Netanyahu, one of the three or four smartest Presidents in the whole history of everything (according to Newt Gingrich) went to Yad Vashem and continued Operation Charm Offense or Offensive Charm or something like that. On the left, via @RaoulWootliff, the note Trump just left at Yad Vashem. 'So amazing!' On the right, the note Obama left at Yad Vashem. pic.twitter.com/rdviJtF3HI —... Read more
Doug O’Brien and I take a look at how a Catholic should respond to the latest assaults on normality and common human decency and intelligence: Read more
It’s well worth hearing. That is authentic Catholic preaching right there. Read more
Of course, left unmentioned is that absurdity of Trump sucking up to the Saudis (whom he once attacked for “pushing gays off buildings“). After giving a speech designed to make his base of believers think he was talking tough about Radical Islamic terrorism (but which has failed to do the job for many of them) he then inked a deal to hand $110 billion in arms to the chief financiers and backers of ISIS, our dear friends the Saudis.
