On November 23 and 24, 2013, we will once again be hearing from a declining number of wayward priests and bishops across the country to contribute to the annual Catholic Campaign for Human Development, more commonly known as the CCHD collection.

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?

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.

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.
