JUDIE BROWN COMMENTARY

Fluke’s Gimmick

It is a sad moment in history when a government calls upon a lone woman to testify about contraception and attempts to tell the country she is representative of women. Where is the person they asked to testify about morality and about the sanctity of life? This deliberate attempt to alter morality and to squash the words and will of our Lord is becoming rampant today and the results are sickening. We must make our voices heard or this will not just be a fluke; it will be the norm.

All Praise and Thanksgiving to You, Oh God!

This time of year, we express our thankfulness more often. We tell others how we feel and maybe even perform works of charity. We remember those who cannot be with us or who have passed from this life. But let us never forget the smallest among us who never had the chance to live a life outside the womb. Let us not forget those who are sick or terminally ill. And let us always be thankful for the life we have been given and vow to make the lives of our fellow human beings better and more rewarding. For if we do not help others, who will?

The Billionaire’s Club: Philanthropy or Mischief?

A group of immensely wealthy individuals pledge to give at least half of their money to the needy. It’s an incredible gift of generosity. Yet what if these monetary gifts hurt more than they help? What if the money goes to services that destroy families and kill babies? Our country is in a sad state of affairs when we must worry about philanthropy like this.

Obama Healthcare Law Sentences the Innocent to Death

We all have reason to fear for the future for our families and for children not yet conceived. Insurance is supposed to protect people, to proffer health and well-being. Yet with the installation of Obamacare, the opposite will occur. Countless lives will be lost and destroyed, and we will watch our country sink further into an abyss of immorality.

Obama’s Department of Death with Dignity

The sick are poised to get a bit sicker now that many are losing insurance benefits that are valuable to not only their treatments but their lives as well. With the advent of Obamacare, many cancer patients are now finding that the treatments they’ve come to rely upon are no longer available or are available for a staggering cost. Today’s commentary highlights some of these cases.

Why Is That Baby an Enemy?

Many people today have a skewed idea as to who the enemy is when it comes to abortion. Most think it’s the baby the defenseless child who is a “burden” who is unwanted or sick or just a victim of bad timing. Yet they don’t understand that this baby is a human being a human being who is made in the image and likeness of Our Lord and who deserves the life he has been given. No, the baby is not the enemy. We must look inward to see the enemy, for the enemy is each and every one of us who make excuses and who allow or encourage this slaughter to continue.

The Miracle of Human Creation

A beautifully made video illustrates the beginnings and development of human life. This kind of tool is important in the education and enlightenment of others about the humanity of God’s children at all stages.

Challenging Children to Chastity

Parents are the first teachers their children will ever have. But once these children enter the world of school and peers, there are other influences that are pressed upon them. For too long, parents have handed off education responsibilities to others and have remained blind as to what the children are seeing, allowing harmful and potentially fatal subjects to be taught to them. It is time for parents to take responsibility and arm children with the abilities to make moral decisions.

Why Doesn’t Pope Francis Do Something?

Through His commandments and the tenets of the Church, God lays out a plan for how we should live in order to attain eternal life. All we need to do is listen and then act. Yet, all too often, people don’t want to listen, and they definitely don’t want to act. They are then left to wonder what happened.

‘Intact’ Killing Deemed Inactionable

First do no harm the crux of the Hippocratic Oath that should inspire hope in patients that their doctor will always care for them in the best way possible. Yet, preborn babies and even expectant mothers seem to be exempt from this assurance. Where does it leave humanity when the most vulnerable among us cannot depend on others for help?

Let’s Not Tolerate the Intolerable!

Christ is truly present body, blood, soul, and divinity in the Holy Eucharist. We must venerate His presence, honor Him for all He has done for us, and remain reverent at all times. Yet, too many do not take His presence seriously. Some even mock Him. Now is the time for each of us both clergy and lay people to stop this disgrace and return the respect to Our Lord that He deserves.

Sexual Behavior and the Absence of Common Sense

We seem to be losing the ability to determine what is really best for our minds, bodies, and souls. Instead, we focus on the here and now. We seek pleasure at all cost, and we allow immoral behavior to creep into our lives. If this continues, there will only be one natural consequence.
