CRS Smells Like Rotten Eggs
An organization should not call itself Catholic if it does not follow and teach the tenets of the faith. It’s pretty simple. Yet why does CRS not seem to understand this?
Questions of Conscience
From California to Wisconsin to Illinois and beyond, the consciences of believing Catholics are being challenged by politics and the medical profession with, seemingly, no relief in sight. Let’s examine what’s happening in these places.
Does That Baby Feel Pain?
Many people are all aflutter about the news that the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, also known as H.R. 36, is now on the Congressional calendar and-by the time you read this-will have been voted on in the U.S. House of Representatives.
Planned Parenthood and Tuskegee-No Difference
Duplicity-the main thing both Planned Parenthood and the Tuskegee experiments have in common. We eventually realized the harm done to hundreds of men. Yet people can’t seem to see through the lies told daily by PP. They can’t seem to understand the destruction this organization causes each and every day. When will the fog lift?
Babies ‘Incompatible with Life’
The innocent, the hurting, the sick, or anyone crying for help should immediately evoke love and compassion. We should reach out to them, not shun them, not kill them. They were given to us to care for, and care for them we must. To do anything else is simply barbaric.
In This Month’s Hoopla Over Teen Pregnancy, Know the Facts
May is “Teen Pregnancy Prevention Month,” and we can all expect to be bombarded with messages that our children need to be “responsible” when they engage in sexual activity. Just this week, a CNN article blamed parents for the fact that teenagers don’t use birth control as frequently as the birth control industry thinks they should. The article quoted a survey taken by The National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy. That survey reportedly found that 68 percent of teens said they agreed with the statement that the primary reason why they don’t use birth control or protection is because they’re afraid their parents will find out.
Science Run Amok
Science fiction was once just that-fiction. They were stories meant to frighten us, to make us wary of what the future might hold. Well, now we seem to be living that future. And we should be very worried.
Catholic Bishops: Please Do Not Be Silent!
Catholic bishops must lead by both word and example. Silence can show complicity; silence can show agreement. Bishops and other clergy must speak in defense of our faith each and every day. Lives and souls depend upon this.
Facing the Reality of Breast Cancer
Aside from the tragic reality that every abortion kills an innocent human being, studies are now finding a link between abortion and breast cancer. Opponents can refute this all they like, but the facts still remain.
If Only Granny Were a Wild Animal!
What is covered with fur, lives either in the wild or in a zoo, and has no soul? If you answered that it’s the latest species to be protected over humans, then you would be correct! How is it that we have come to live in a world where animals are given more rights than human beings created in the image and likeness of God?
Babies Twisting in the Wind
Imagine being utterly helpless, wanting to cry for somebody-anybody-to come to your aid. Yet no one can hear you. No one comes for you; you are incredibly alone. And then suddenly there is intense pain and you can cry no more.
Making Babies without God
When people become blind to Church teaching and put their wants and needs above Our Lord’s, they lead their souls into jeopardy. It is not only then that our leaders should step in and intervene, but before this mentality takes hold. In a world saturated with selfishness and the absence of God, we desperately need leaders who lead.
