What is True Freedom?
By Carol Ann Chybowski
The Fourth of July always seems to make people stop and reflect on the core values of our culture. One of these values is freedom. We talk about political freedom, religious freedom, and economic freedom. Listen or read any type of media these days and we need more of every conceivable kind.

True Freedom and the Beautiful Life
By Tony Crescio
Our country is once again on the eve of the celebration of our Independence Day, a day which we rightly commemorate because of the victory won for human dignity; as freedom was gained for a people to live life according to the dictates of conscience, not the mandate of the state.

Brexit and Stemming the Tide of Secular Globalization
By Joseph Michael
When you keep pushing and bending a piece of wood, one of two things are likely to happen: either the wood breaks, or your hand just might slip and the wood springs back and smacks you in the face. The systematic implementation of and insistence upon a comprehensive policy of globalization and nouveau-Socialism on the Western world over the past 70 or so years was bound to create a powder keg.

Sex and the Single Pope
Sex and the Single Pope
By David Kamioner
Let’s first off say it’s rather uncomfortable to talk or hear about sex from anybody you respect, like your parents, a teacher, and especially a priest. Not that it isn’t in a priest’s duty to talk about temptations of the flesh. In fact, as certain sins arise from the subject it can’t be avoided.

The Catholic Church and the AR-15
The Catholic Church and the AR-15
By David Kamioner
When I joined The Church around my 35th year, coming over from Judaism, I joined because frankly it seemed the most aesthetically beautiful and intellectually coherent of the Christian faiths. And, notwithstanding regular pronouncements from the current pontiff on economic and environmental issues, it still seems to me to be the faith of Aquinas, Augustine of Hippo, Evelyn Waugh, etc.

Why?
Why?

Pope Francis--The Foremost Ambassador of Humility

False Sentimentality in and for Orlando
By Lorrie McNickle
Something horrible happened June 12, 2016, the worst mass shooting in our nation’s history. It happened at a gay bar/nightclub in the city of Orlando. This horrible event happened at a place that would not be considered wholesome or even mainstream. It was a club that celebrated homosexuality.

Orlando was terrible, but what can I do?
By Troy Kroening
Many times in our lives, we are faced with tragedies. Some close to home and some not. Especially in the cases of tragedies not close to home, we wonder what could we have done?

Sixty years and counting
