If you missed Pope Francis’ virtual papal audience with America, here it is, without editing. This is an incredible event. I cried like a baby when the single mother with the two little girls spoke to the pope about her life and her feelings. I think the reason why so many of these people cried when they were talking is the healing power of telling their story to the Vicar of Christ. This is the power that all priests have,... Read more

Do you support forcing doctors and nurses to violate their consciences by killing their patients with abortion and euthanasia? How does this overall concept apply to the questions raised by the jailing of Kim Davis? Read more

I think this is something that only a Harry Truman Democrat could write. I take on the moral inanity of poseur liberalism, something that will probably get the hide ripped off me all over again in certain circles. You can read it all at CatholicVote.  Here’s part of what I said: Mother Jones is a venerable liberal magazine. It’s named after a labor organizer who was — you guessed it — Mother Jones. Back in the day, liberals were all about things... Read more

How about when the shoe is on the other foot? From Daily Mail: An openly-gay judge has said she is refusing to perform marriage ceremonies until same-sex couples can wed. Dallas County Judge Tonya Parker says she won’t use her power to perform legal marriage ceremonies in her court because would be ‘an oxymoron’ for her. Speaking to a meeting of Stonewall Democrats of Dallas, she said: ‘I use it as my opportunity to give them a lesson about marriage inequality in... Read more

What order would you give the allied commander of the Pro Life Forces? I asked this question in a post I wrote for the National Catholic Register. The replies have been more than interesting. Here’s some of what I said: The pro-life movement has been wandering in the political battlefields, winning tactical points and losing tactical points with each election. It has placed its entire operation in the hands of one political party, and has, by doing this, put the “issue”... Read more

It appears that reports of the Catholic Church’s demise have been greatly exaggerated. In fact, it appears that they are 180 degrees off the mark. American Catholics chalked up astronomical percentages of approval for both their Church and the Holy Father in a recent poll conducted by the Public Religion Institute. There were sighting of the usual Catholic confusion about their Church’s teachings. I think that’s to be expected. After all, the Catholic Church is both the largest church in... Read more

So, Pope Francis announced that priests can grant absolution for abortion. Most American Catholics find this confusing. Where else would they go for confession and absolution? Here’s the deal. Abortion is one of those few sins that are “reserved.” “Reserved” means that forgiveness of such sins is reserved to the local bishop. This is a reflection of how seriously the Church takes the sin of abortion; how grave it is to kill a helpless unborn child. That does not mean... Read more
