Choosing Government over God has a Difference; One is Death, and the other is Life.
Choosing Government over God has a Difference; One is Death, and the other is Life.
By Larry Peterson
The saga of Alfie Evans sickened me. Except for two overriding factors, his death was unnecessary.

The Heresy of Annihilationism: Why is Hell Forever?
By Scott Pauline
In regards to the release of the new Star Wars "sequel," I must admit that since my profound reversion to Catholicism in the mid to early nineties, I don't take much interest in science fiction or fantasy as I have had at previous times in my life.

POPE ST. GREGORY I, THE FIRST MEDIEVAL POPE
By Debra Booton McCoy
Another man born in disastrous times who went on to be a pope is our subject today. Roman senator named Gordanius and a wealthy woman named Silvia were Gregory’s parents.

The Work of Christ and Human Freedom
The Work of Christ and Human Freedom
By William Hemsworth

Did you Know that there are 24 Individual Catholic Churches in union with Rome?
By Larry Peterson
The proper way to refer to the Roman Catholic Church under the jurisdiction of Rome is simply, the Latin Church. That is because there are millions of Catholics who are not part of the Roman Catholic Church. But they belong to THE Catholic Church and are subject to the Pope.

The Sunshine and the Clouds: Five Years with Pope Francis
By Justin Soutar
This past March 13, we celebrated the fifth anniversary of Pope Francis's election to the papacy. I recall five years ago watching EWTN's live broadcast of the conclave proceedings in Rome, where on a cold and rainy late winter evening, white smoke poured forth from the chimney of the Sistine Chapel and we were all surprised by the cardinals' choice of Jorge Mario Bergoglio
