Putting Pope Francis in Perspective
By Michael D. Greaney
A senile old fool at the mercy of factions in the Church, manipulated by the Jesuits, out of touch with reality, a disappointment to liberals seeking more change, and a menace to conservatives trying to hold the line against any change ... Pope Francis? No. That was how some discontented individuals and groups in the Catholic Church viewed Pope Leo XIII (Gioacchino Vincenzo Pecci, 1810-1903)

We're not Crazy, we're just Catholic
By Al Vargo
Reasons why people think we're "crazy" - We like to keep Mass interesting. We seem to sit, stand and kneel, in no particular order. Probably just to keep the blood flowing.

The Contraception Issue, Protestants, and Our Unchanging God
By Arnold Scott
The use of artificial contraception technologies is not a very controversial moral issue in our culture these days. It is widely accepted. It was not very controversial 100 years ago either; it was outlawed. In the U.S., it was only in 1965 that the Supreme Court ruled that artificial birth control would be legal for married couples (Griswold v. Connecticut)

The Upside Down World of Scouting: How It Affects Family
By Birgit Jones
Today’s world of scouting certainly isn’t that of your parents’ day! The Girl Scouts of the United States of America (GSUSA) are in cahoots with abortion giant Planned Parenthood, and there is a push within the Boy Scouts of America (GSA) for openly homosexual leaders. As it is, they already accept openly gay scouts into the fold.

Blah, Blah, Blah
By Robert Hug
So you’ve read Thomas Aquinas, Cervantes, Dante, Chaucer and Shakespeare? Blah Blah Blah. Lately on Catholic web sites, I’ve been seeing so much self righteousness and so much anger and so much bitterness. All of which is passive aggressively wrapped up in a bunch of fancy rhetoric.

Husband and Wife: Complementarity and Timeless Truth
By Arnold Scott
Amid our culture’s increasing chaos regarding natural law, gender, marriage and other topics which are crucial for society and authentic human development, the Catholic Church stands out as “the pillar and bulwark of truth.” (1 Timothy 3:15) Our Holy Father, Pope Francis, has shown a great commitment to Church teaching about marriage and family.

How Strong is Your Faith?
By Ebeth Weidner
You've heard of the woman, desperate for a cure, who knew that just touching the cloak of Jesus would heal her from years of medical abuse, ignorance, and pain. In that one instance she was cured, was it her actually touching Jesus' cloak, was it Jesus, or was it her faith? "Your faith has made you well..."

Our Lady of Fatima, Pray for Us!
By Catholic365
It is sometimes hard to understand how much Our Heavenly Mother loves us and continues to try to get the attention of all her wayward children. Such was a time when she appeared to three shepherd children in 1917.

A Call To Unity
By Amelia Monroe Carlson
Love, forgiveness, peace, unity and mercy are all common beliefs and teachings which set the Christian faith apart from other beliefs and religions. However, confined within the different denominations of the Christian faith are small ‘civil wars’ which divide the believers in Jesus Christ as opposed to bringing them together in unity.

"Same-Sex "Marriage": The Great Illusion of the Modern, Secularist Era:
By Larry Peterson
The United States Supreme Court has now heard the arguments for and against "gay- marriage". Now we wait to see what the almighty Justices have decided. We will not hear the decision until sometime during the early days of summer. As for me, I do not get it. No sirree, this does NOT make sense to me.

A Patron Saint for California
By Justin Soutar
During an airborne press conference en route to the Philippines last January, Pope Francis revealed that he will canonize Blessed Junipero Serra, the heroic "Apostle of California," during his visit to the United States this coming September. As a Catholic who was born and raised in California, I have been prayerfully anticipating this historic occasion for many years.

Time to "Slap Back" at the Self-Serving Intolerance of the Anti-Catholic/Christian
By Larry Peterson
When I began to contemplate the Cross on Good Friday and Who was nailed to it, I found myself disgusted. I am still disgusted. I am disgusted and fed up with the approximately 2% of the population who are gay and are screaming at the “intolerance” of the Catholic/Christian community which comprises 80% of the American population.

Captain Catholic
By Tom Ponchak
When I was about six or seven years old I loved Superman. I wanted to be Superman. One day I made a cape out of a bath towel, climbed up on my twin bed next the window, grabbed the string attached to the curtain rod, tied it to the belt loop on the back of my jeans, and jumped off the bed expecting to be suspended in the air so I could “fly” like Superman.
