Christ is Greater than Columbus
By Father Adaly Rosado, Jr.
We recently celebrated Columbus Day. While people argue about whether or not this day should be celebrated as a holiday, it is safe to say that most people enjoyed the day off from work. For most it was a day to be with their families. For most children it meant “no school on Monday!”

Too Busy To Care
By Victor S E Moubarak
“After sunset all who had friends who were sick with various diseases brought them to Jesus; He placed His hands on everyone of them and healed them all.” Luke 4:40. “Then a man suffering from a dreaded skin-disease came to Him, knelt down before Him, and said, ‘Sir, if you want to, you can make me clean’”. Jesus stretched out His hand and touched him. “I do want to,” He answered. “Be clean!”

Should we fear the devil?
By Traditional Catholic Guy
The Devil never runs upon a man to seize him with his claws until he sees him on the ground, already having fallen by his own will. --Saint Thomas More In these times of “religious freedom”, recently there has been a stir about the occult doing ceremonies open to the public. For the first time since the barbaric pre-christian religions, Satan's been bold enough to enter into the public arena.

That's It, I'm Done!
By John C Prejean Sr.
Are you one of those who is about to get off social media sites completely? I too, for a while, felt like I was going to close my Facebook account and just stick with Twitter or nothing at all. Now, I’ve found a new way to use social media sites towards my advantage, which has made it a much more pleasant experience

The Science of Religion: God's Blessed Hologram
By Robert Italia
The faithful may bristle at the thought of using science to illustrate and defend religious tenets, but as the following column argues, science and religion are not the foes many perceive. If anything, secularism has co-opted science in an (unwitting?) attempt to disconnect man from God. So here’s CRISTOFORI’S DREAM, my novel’s theory of everything. Perhaps there's a hint of truth in all of this

The Synod has Opened: Hello Media!! It is all about FAMILY.
By Larry Peterson
The secular media (print & broadcast) has been salivating over the Synod of Bishops that has officially opened in Rome. They have been pounding the drum about the birth of a NEW church filled with the progressiveness of the "modern, secular world". They have ignored the reason this Synod has actually been called together. HELLO media, the Synod is about Family.

Child Euthanasia—Another Secular Abomination Degrading God's Natural Law?
By Larry Peterson
I think that the plague of secularism that has engulfed the entire world possibly reached its optimal success last February. The highly civilized country of Belgium passed a law allowing children to choose to euthanize themselves.

Pope Francis Lover of Life
By Anne Marty
I was so touched by Pope Francis that I read eight books about him. I had seen how he bowed his head and asked for prayer. I wanted to learn about him. I have seen pictures of Pope Francis kissing handicapped people. He is meek and humble of heart. After being elected Pope he rode the bus back to the hotel.

A Catholic Man's Guide to Purity
By Traditional Catholic Guy
“The state of grace is nothing other than purity, and it gives heaven to those who clothe themselves in it. Holiness, therefore, is simply the state of grace purified, illuminated, beautified by the most perfect purity, exempt not only from mortal sin but also from the smallest faults; purity will make saints of you! Everything lies in this!” --St. Peter Eymard

Has Secularism Conquered the St. Patrick's Day Parade? Cardinal Dolan Should Clarify Church Teaching
By Larry Peterson
We are up to our waists in the muck of secular quicksand and, slowly but surely, it is trying its best to suck us all deeper into its godless abyss. This insidious secularism has permeated so much of our lives, it has become the norm for many, especially the Millennials

Thirst for Reverence
By Karl Erickson
From the beginning of our marriage, finding a church that seemed right was a struggle. We visited church after church and spent significant time in prayer on the issue. This was not what we had planned. I had always expected to quickly settle down in the “perfect church” home, but we just could not find it.

St. Paul Calls Out to us From Across the Ages
By Larry Peterson
The second reading at Sunday's Mass (the 22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time: 8/31/2104) was from St. Paul to the Romans: 12:1-2. The words reverberated in my head and I think it was not only because of their simplicity and timeliness but primarily because of the message.

Some Food for Thought on Gay Marriage
By Karl Erickson
We’re all familiar with the frantic push for homosexual marriage and/or civil unions. As people of faith striving to live peacefully within a society in growing crisis, we’re probably much more acquainted than we’d like to be with this ideology washing over us from all sides of our popular culture.

Are you a Good Samaritan?
By Christopher Brown
“What must I do to inherit eternal life?” That was the question posed to Jesus by the lawyer in Luke 10:25. Wow what a question. Isn’t that a question we have all asked at one time or another? So what is the long awaited answer? In true Jesus' fashion, He answers with a question: What does scriptures say?

WWJD
By Al Vargo
Some thoughts for my Christian friends: A common war cry among liberal 'christians' over the past few years has been: WWJD (What would Jesus do?). It's attempt to make people forget Christ's teachings by focusing on His loving nature, to make the secular notion of 'anything goes' seem OK. Since God is love, and Jesus is forgiving, then it doesn't matter how people live their lives,

Celibacy and the Single Mom
By Elizabeth Conner
This is a really hard post for me to start, because I don't know where to begin. How can I write about celibacy? I mean I am...celibate...although, it is hard. Maybe that is exactly why God wants me to write this, as a reminder to myself why this is so important.

Why the Devout Life is essential for every Catholic
By Traditional Catholic Guy
“Frequently, on the pretext of some supposed impossibility, [ordinary Catholics] will not even think of undertaking a devout life. It is their opinion that just as no animal dares to taste the seed of the herb called palma Christi, so no one should aspire to the palm of Christian piety as long as he is living under the pressure of worldly affairs.”
