This is a couple of years old now, but it’s a good one. Fr. Thomas Euteneuer calls out Sean Hannity on his inconsistent Catholicism. The very arguments that Sean Hannity makes clearly reveal his failure to grasp the theological depth of this issue (and the basic teachings of the Church). In the end, Hannity came [...]
The usual liturgical color for Advent is purple (similar to Lent) to remind us that this is a penitential season. It is particularly an appropriate time for special prayers and fasting to prepare for the coming of Jesus Christ into the world at Christmas. And it’s not solely a remembrance or anniversary of when Christ [...]
These are the US Senators (listed below) who voted last night (Dec 8th) against the Nelson/Hatch/Casey amendment to the Health Care legislation.

But is it effective to show such images publicly to people who continue to support this “choice”? Please take the poll! Here is a really [...]
A recent study has found that getting married and having children increase happiness and overall life satisfaction. Commenting on the results, author and TV personality Rachel Campos-Duffy told CNA that this runs counter to the prevailing culture and “reminds couples to appreciate each other and the beautiful messiness of child-rearing right here and now.” Published [...]
The 13th Day is the latest and most well done account of the miracle at Fatima and its surrounding story. It was just released this week. I mentioned this movie and posted its trailer a few weeks ago here. But since then I was blessed enough to receive a pre-release copy of the DVD for [...]
My comments in blue: U.S. Representative Patrick Kennedy (D-RI) said in an interview Sunday that Providence Bishop Thomas J. Tobin has instructed him to refrain from Communion because of his pro-abortion political position [So the bishop is doing his job and has privately reminded Kennedy that he shouldn't present himself for communion while being publicly [...]
