3 Year Old Dead After Tragedy in Cincinnati
By Courtney Holbrook
I write this in hopes that by the time this article is published, it might be considered archaic and behind on current events. However with a pending court case, that remains to be seen.

100 Articles and Counting: But this is about My Book
By Larry Peterson
To my surprise, I just saw that the my submission and publication count in the CATHOLIC365 archives has reached 100. Prior to my seeing the blog count I had asked our editor at CATHOLIC365 if I might do a slight bit of book promo and I was told--"YES". SO, as I celebrate 100 blog posts at CATHOLIC365, here is a bit about me as an author and my latest book.

The First 3 Joyful Mysteries: Analogy of all Human History?
By Scott Pauline
If the birth of Christ symbolizes, by Advent Tradition, the Second Coming of Christ, perhaps the whole time period in months from the outset, that is, from the conception of St John the Baptist, all the way through to that same birth of Christ is an image of the whole Divine Plan.

Matthew 16: Catholic vs. Protestant
By Christopher McCarthy
The primacy of Peter is perhaps one of the strongest points of contention between Catholics and non-Catholics today. Since the Protestant Reformation in the 16th Century, a plethora of interpretations have developed surrounding the famous passage of Matthew 16:18-19, where Christ declares that Peter is the “rock” upon which He will found His Church

Forgiveness Is Awesome, But Sin Still Hurts
By Bill Dunn
At Mass this weekend, all three readings have the same theme: God’s forgiveness. In the first reading, the prophet Nathan confronted King David. David recently had done a couple of rather nasty things. First, he committed adultery; then, in an attempt to cover it up, he committed murder.

A Case of Mistaken Identity
By Mike Bugal
I’ve read many remarks from readers both of my articles and those of other authors here. One comment in particular that has caught my attention is the Facebook posters who will make the angry comment, “I’m not going to read this site anymore. I thought this was a source of sound Catholic doctrine but you allow so-and-so to write his drivel.”

Killing messes up our heart.
By Kathy Lamb
My son David is against all killing. I tend to agree with his reasons for not wanting to kill, not wanting to kill even insects. Killing anything messes with our heart. Here’s a mix of what I learned from him and my own take on it.

Jesus and Extraterrestrial Life: Meditation on John 10:14-18
By John Mayer
This article will discuss a theory that is not Church teaching or doctrine. It is a theory I have not encountered elsewhere, but feel should be pondered and further explored. I do not wish to offend anyone in writing this article and if it comes across as heretical or absurd, please discredit or discard it.

Pregnancy, Wonderful and Beautiful! Revelation of the Developing Old Testament?
By Scott Pauline
just as a beloved lady must carry a child in her womb for nine months, so, in any world that would happen to Fall and that was to then receive an Incarnation from God, I believe that there would need to be the same nine theological phases of history to prepare for Incarnate One.

God Loves that Guy
By Victoria Pangia
I was in church during Adoration not too long ago and there was praise and worship music playing in the background. There was a song talking about a man strapping homemade bombs to his chest. I was thoroughly confused,

Living Sermons
By Tony Crescio
Preach the Gospel at all times, and if necessary, use words. So goes the saying often attributed to the Italian saint, Francis of Assisi. Implied, of course, within this famous quote, is the idea that we have the ability to preach the gospel with the whole of our lives.

Joy vs.Happiness
By Marie Murphy Duess
At a weekend retreat I attended with my husband, the director of the retreat, a young priest, used the theme of joy for his conferences. He began by comparing joy to happiness, and explained that happiness is something that we experience based on conditions—I’m happy because the weather is nice (if it wasn’t, I’d be as gloomy as the weather), I’m happy because it’s my birthday

Follow Jesus? Well, it Depends…..

The gay marriage agenda in this country has brought something very interesting to the forefront.

Love Makes the Word Go Round
By Linda Kracht
After sitting down to write this article I googled: number of couples still married after forty years. Some interesting references popped up but the one that caught my eye was titled 40 Lessons from Forty Years of Marriage by Dennis Rainey. I shouldn’t have read it! Not because I didn’t agree with him but because I did. Rainey perfectly captured points I planned to write about.

Building Memories
By Mary Rivers
In old age, one often closes their eyes to reflect upon the past, a past composed of people- like stepping stones in a babbling brook. One remembers children, their birth and antics; loves, some whom have passed on. Happy memories keep one attached to other people; things and places aren’t sentient beings.

Reality Check: Does Having Judeo-Christian Values Make You a Candidate for Genocide?
By Larry Peterson
The words--annihilation, extermination, carnage, and slaughter, to name a few, are synonyms for the word "Holocaust". The word "genocide"not invented until 1941, fits right in there. But none of those words bring us to the core of what those words truly represent. They are the by-product of the malevolent, hideous, and hate filled evil that consumes and takes control of certain human beings.

The Moral Imperative of Capitalism
By David Kamioner
It is fashionable, and has been from time immemorial, to condemn the free market as anti-Christian, as some intrinsically greedy and savage process whereupon the rich get richer, and hopefully buy better hair pieces, and the poor get poorer, and hopefully do not buy further copies of the NIV.
