By David Vermont
Today we read Pilate’s famous statement, “What is truth?” It is an important statement. Pilate is the governor of Judea, the ruler who is responsible for thousands of people’s lives, yet to him truth is fungible.

By John Horvat
As I stood on the country highway praying a rosary for marriage, I could not help but think I was on the front line. Talking about traditional marriage is essential, but it can be done from the safety of the home. Writing about the subject is an exercise done in the isolation of an office.
