Headlines Answering the Only Question That Matters About Abortion By Jennifer Hartline | January 31, 2014 Pregnancy is no easy thing, period. There is no reason not to admit that pregnancy can be very, very hard on a woman. It can be every good and beautiful thing, and it can be some very difficult things, too. That's the truth,plain and simple. But here's the bottom line: it's irrelevant. All that matters is the humanity of the child in the womb. Continue Reading... Scientists Claim They Can Obtain Embryonic Stem Cells Without Killing the Embryonic Person By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM) | January 31, 2014 Swedish scientists claim to have developed an ethical way of removing stem cells from embryos without killing the baby. They say the development could revolutionize stem cell research by making it acceptable to those who object to the killing of children in the womb. Unfortunately, ethical concerns remain. Continue Reading... Where We Meet Real Presence By Deal W. Hudson | January 31, 2014 Polls show that more than 60 percent of American Catholics say they do not believe in the Real Presence-that Jesus Christ is bodily present in the Eucharist. What does this mean? Are U.S. Catholics lacking in faith or poorly catechized, or are there more basic flaws in our current understanding of the Real Presence? I think most Catholics understand Real Presence too narrowly.  All Press is Good Press: Pope Francis and the Cover of Rolling Stone Magazine By Deacon Keith Fournier | January 31, 2014 Rolling Stone Magazine hit the newsstands this morning with the picture of Pope Francis on the cover. The lead article by Mark Binelli entitled Pope Francis:The Times They Are A-Changing has caused such a stir that the magazine has raised eyebrows - and may actually make a profit. Of course, the writer hoped it would reinforce the absurd thesis he thinks he can support in this silly, poorly researched article. He thinks the times they are a-changing means the Catholic Church and her message is changing.He is wrong, but all Press is good press in this new missionary age. Continue Reading... Pope Francis makes a special plea! Are Catholics deaf or will they listen? By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM) | January 27, 2014 Pope Francis continues to call for aid to the poor as the holiday season ends. The Holy Father has set a goal to eradicate global hunger by distributing food more equitably around the world and he has called on all faithful Catholics to help. It's a call that can't be answered by a single second collection at Mass. Continue Reading... Keeping the Moral Law and Staying Human By Andrew M. Greenwell, Esq. | January 30, 2014 St. Peter of Damascus (ca. 675-ca. 749) wrote regarding the moral law of God: "We have the duty of keeping the commandments--or, rather, being kept by them." St. Peter realized that by keeping the natural moral law, we both keep a duty to God and keep ourselves. By disobeying the natural moral, we not only disobey God, but we also lose ourselves. Continue Reading... Guest Opinion: Common Core and Catholic Schools Week By Rev. Peter M. J. Stravinskas, Ph.D., S.T.D. | January 30, 2014 What is my advice to Catholic parents, teachers, administrators and clergy? Press the "pause" button. There is no need for us to jump on-board an untested program. Catholic educators have never been given to fads (which is, again, a reason for our on-going success). Let's see where and how the dust settles. My educated hunch is that we shall see that the project will die aborning; we shall be spared the expenditure of time and treasure, while we forged ahead with what we have known to be a winning product all along. "Faith, Knowledge, Service." Continue Reading... Gritty Gimme Shelter is a Brilliant, Life Affirming Film Which Must Be Seen By Deacon Keith Fournier | January 31, 2014 I did not know what to expect. I have long been convinced of the importance of people with sincere faith making films which are not dismissed as religious or labeled Christian and marginalized.  Pope Francis Calls Catholics To Learn and Practice the Prayer of Praise By Deacon Keith Fournier | January 30, 2014 But, Father! This is for the Renewal in the Spirit folks, not for all Christians!' No: prayer of praise is a Christian prayer, for all of us. In the Mass, every day, when we sing the Holy, Holy, Holy ... This is a prayer of praise: we praise God for his greatness, because He is great. We say beautiful things to Him, because we happy for His greatness Continue Reading... Literacy and The Necessity of the Visual By Deal W Hudson | January 29, 2014 In a world where our minds and hearts are, on a daily basis, being shaped and informed by images, whether stills or moving, becoming visually literate is a goal we should all pursue and should certainly provide for our children. This will mean that we learn not only to understand the "grammar" of image representation but also the skills to create those representations. In other words, we all need to learn how to make a film. More on this later! Continue Reading...
