What Choice is Ours?
By Joseph Michael
If there is anything that we, as Catholics, can learn—assuming we didn’t already know this—from the abhorrent state of our nation’s political affairs, it is that we should never put our faith in men (or women).

Theology of the Body Extended Again: Christ's Crucified Feet, an Analogy
By Scott Pauline
Our feet walk the Way of Jesus, the Way of truth. Our feet are meant to walk in the path of the way. The way is lit by the truth. Christ is the truth! Hence, why shouldn't the details of Jesus' crucified feet reveal deep specificity of the truth of Christ, manifested in five great fountains, as the five toes of the human foot

A Reflection of Eternity…
By Br. Gustavo Kralj, EP
At the heart of the Iberian Peninsula, on the far western edge of the old city, rises the centuries-old Alcázar of Segovia, Spain, with majestic splendour. Jutting from a rocky crag above the confluence of the Clamores and Eresma Rivers, it has defied the elements and time itself, its soaring silhouette dominating the surrounding landscape.

Pope Saint Caius, Encourager
By Debra Booton McCoy
Knowing our own history makes us value it more. To know the history of the Church makes us value her further. Even those people who are far into the depths of anonymity should be brought to the surface and looked at, however briefly.

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.

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.

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.

Conquest or Collectively Benevolent Progress?
By Joseph Michael
As Flannery O’Connor once wrote, “anyone who has survived childhood has enough material to write about for the rest of his life.” We each have unique childhood experiences as a result of our varied upbringings and family lives.

‘The Grand Sez Who' Wreaking Havoc in Our Culture
By Bill Dunn
Some years ago I wrote an editorial column for a local newspaper, which explained the harmful effect of moral relativism on our culture. Moral relativism is the popular notion that there is no such thing as absolute truth. Instead, all moral values are merely personal opinions, and no one opinion should be judged as better or worse than another.

Intro to the Eastern Catholic Churches Part III: The Alexandrian Rite
By Nicholas LaBanca
The universal Catholic Church has many different ways of expressing the fullness of the Truth handed down by Christ to His Apostles and their successors. We see these different ways of expressing our Catholic faith manifested in the Churches of the West and the East,

Pope Saint Eutychian
By Debra Booton McCoy
Pope Saint Eutychian apparently did not live a very exciting life, for there is no information known about him other than his name and the date he probably came to be bishop of Rome. We are not even sure he was on the throne. The Catholic Church states his reign as January, 275 to December 7, 283.

Cefalu, simply between heaven and the sea ...
By Br. Gustavo Kralj, EP
Set like a noble and gentle jewel among the rugged local geography, the ancient town of Cefalu enhances with grace the splendid northern Sicilian coast.

Intro to the Eastern Catholic Churches Part II: The Armenian Rite
By Nicholas LaBanca
In my first article in this series, An Introduction to the Eastern Catholic Churches, we were able to get acquainted with the 24 sui iuris (autonomous or self-governing) Churches within the Catholic Church. 23 of those Churches are Eastern Catholic Churches, and each of those 23 Churches belong to one of five liturgical traditions or rites.

From Eucharist to Evolution
By Mike Morris
It is no mystery that the central sacrament of Catholic life is the Eucharist. This institution has been the focal point of the Church since Christ scandalized thousands by imploring them to eat his flesh. But for the person who accepts it, how does the mind reconcile? For one, there is the necessity for an active decision to accept Christ's real presence in the Sacrament.

Pope Saint Felix I
By Debra Booton McCoy
Felix, before his ascension to the papacy, is unknown. He is believed to have been Roman. He must have had some position in the Roman Church to be elected after the death of Dionysius. At any rate, he took the throne on January 5, 269.
