The return of Christianity to Russia should give us hope for our own Nation as we face the effects of moral relativism, secularism and the growing hostility toward Christianity. I want to suggest something which will raise many eyebrows.Is what is happening in Russia a partial fulfillment of the promised conversion of that Nation? President Putin exchanging icons of Mary with Pope Francis was not simply a mere nicety. Accounts which have surfaced indicate that it was done with reverence and genuine signs of Christian piety. Could this be a part of the promise of Fatima being fulfilled?

Say what you will about the devil - but he's always found out. A British couple has recently discovered that a concealed, almost life-size mural of Henry VIII they discovered in their 16th-century Somerset home holds a mysterious secret. When you turn the mural upside down, the face of Satan is clearly visible!

Guest Opinion: The Laugh-A-Minute Abortion Telethon
By L. Brent Bozell III | November 26, 2013

Pro-life politics begins with the medical fact that the unborn child is a developing human being. It's also a medical fact that said developing human being can be viable as early as 23 weeks. It's the pro-abortion side that is in scientific denial. For them, it's emotional. It's not a baby until the woman decides to exercise her right to "choose" to let it live.

When Political Correctness Passes For Science
By Dr. Frederick Liewehr | November 26, 2013

Our society is so blinded by political correctness, by the compulsory but erroneous and disproven dogma that passes for "knowledge", that we have become incapable of thinking or evaluating arguments. We have replaced rational discussion with jingoism and ad hominum attacks, where cries of "Racist!" or "Homophobe"" substitute for discussion. Subjects are closed; the decisions have been made by the self-anointed, and there is to be no questioning those decisions, no "hate speech" allowed. Political correctness, as taught in our schools and increasingly mandated by our government, is destroying our nation.

The Bones of Peter, the Successor of Peter: Close of the Year of Faith
By Deacon Keith Fournier | November 25, 2013

On the Solemnity of the Feast of Christ the King, the Sunday which marks both the end of the Church Year and the end of the Year of Faith, inaugurated by Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, Pope Francis greeted thousands of the faithful and presided over Holy Mass and the Angelus prayer. It was a profoundly moving event, for many reasons. Among those reasons, Pope Francis, the successor of Peter, exposed for the first time the bones of St. Peter, the first Pope, for public veneration.

Understanding the Mystery of Iniquity and the Horror of Sin
By Andrew M. Greenwell, Esq. | November 26, 2013

Reason alone cannot fully grasp the gravity of sin and recourse to the Holy Spirit and the Cross of Christ is necessary because there is, in fact, a two-fold aspect to any serious sin: a natural aspect and the more significant supernatural aspect of which reason is ignorant.

Christ the King, the Year of Faith and the Catholic Counterculture
By Deacon Keith Fournier | November 26, 2013

We celebrate the Feast of Christ the King. It is one of many opportunities the Catholic Church year offers to each one of us to consider the creature called time, receive it as a gift, and begin to really live our lives differently. This is one of the many things which make us countercultural. The number of things which make us countercultural is increasing as the West abandons its foundations in Christendom and embraces a secularist delusion. Our living them, in a compelling and visible way, is a profoundly important form of missionary activity. It will invite our neighbors to examine our lives and be drawn to the One who is its source, as the emptiness of a life without God fails to fulfill the longing in their hearts. On this Solemnity of the Feast of Christ the King, the Year of Faith inaugurated by Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI comes to a ceremonial end. However, in reality, it cannot and will not end, because Jesus Christ is King! The Year of Faith was only the beginning for those who choose to live the Life of Faith.
