Cardinal Timothy Dolan, Are You There?
A fun celebration of a beloved Catholic saint has been usurped by a part of our community bent on shouting immorality for all to hear. And where is our Catholic clergy?

JUDIE BROWN COMMENTARY
Archbishop Cordileone and the Lost Sheep
Why is it that people feel they must argue with and protest against a Catholic leader who is standing firm in his faith, who is teaching others to do the same? Our faith was given to us by Christ. Our faith is precious. It’s time we treat it as such and it’s time we treat those who instruct us with the respect they deserve.
Contraception Is the Root Cause of Abortion!
Imagine that your doctor has just given you the terrific news that your annual checkup went well and that all of your tests show that you are in perfect health. Then imagine that he hands you a script and says, Take this every day. It has many side effects, including lethal ones. You would be loath to begin this regimen. Yet, this is what countless women do each day when they use contraception to prevent a pregnancy.
Two Parents, Multiple Parents, Human Clones, Scientific Deceptions, and Nightmares!
A child created within a marital unit and out of love? Those were the old days. These days, we can mix up the “perfect” creation in a petri dish. But at what cost?
Perverse Fruits of IVF
The medical community touts in vitro fertilization as something great, something amazing. But it omits the fact that this procedure is not victimless. Neither is it moral or ethical. Today’s commentary explores the words of Pope John Paul II and the Church and explains what every Catholic should know.
A Cold, Cold Heart
The icy fingers of selfishness and callousness have crept into the collective body of society and left its members chilled to the bone. We see hearts that have been hardened, minds that focus only on material wants and desires, and human beings slaughtered at will. How will we survive?
Skewed Numbers Equal More Dead Babies
Interpretation of data is of utmost importance when looking at the latest Guttmacher report. To understand the enormity of how many babies are aborted each year, read today’s commentary. We must work to protect all human beings born and preborn. This tragedy these killings must be stopped.
Bringing Abortion out of the Closet?
We live in a backward culture that somehow thinks the murder of a child is not only acceptable, but something that should be celebrated and embraced. We’ve allowed minds to become so twisted and confused that they don’t even see the resulting destruction. We say all the time that we must be voices for the preborn, but are we loud enough to be heard over all this noise?
Measles Vaccine: A Not-So-Innocent Shot in the Arm
The reason why many pro-life parents have decided not to give their children the MMR vaccine is a shocking one. Part of this vaccine is derived from the cells of aborted babies. This horrid reality presses upon the consciences of many. Yet there is a solution one that the manufacturer will not consider.
The Cookie Wars Get Traction, but Will It Last?
It’s about more than just cookies. It’s about a way of life a disturbing move toward immorality that many are turning a blind eye to. Some people embrace this. Many merely accept it. Just as a broken cookie crumbles, so will our country if we do not make changes and repair all that has gone wrong. So what can we do? Today’s commentary explains.
The Pill and the Big Chill
Touted as liberation. Touted as a way for women to take control. The pill has long been described as something positive women should do for themselves. But how often do we hear about its negative consequences and deadly effects? Not often enough. Now is the time for the truth.
Shepherds Who Rock Our World
We are proud of the actions of clergy who stand up for the truths of the Church and who, despite backlash from secular society, refuse to back down. This is truly what it means to lead. And we must strive to follow this lead not only in our own hearts, but with our own voices.
