Catholic Online and Common Good, Friends of the Court in Supporting Hobby Lobby at the Supreme Court

By Deacon Keith Fournier | March 25, 2014

We have witnessed an ominous trend in the United States. Classical, faithful Christians who uphold the unbroken teaching of the Church and the scriptures concerning the dignity of every human life and the truth concerning marriage as solely between one man and one woman and formative of family, are being squeezed out of commerce.

Fr. Peter M. J. Stravinskas on the Solemnity of the Annunciation of the Lord

By Rev. Peter M. J. Stravinskas, Ph.D., S.T.D. | March 25, 2014

As we think back on how the greatest event in human history occurred, we stand in awe of the fact that the omnipotent God wanted and awaited human cooperation. God the Father made His plan for our salvation contingent on a human being's saying "yes". And so, Our Lady stands as a constant reminder of the great things that can happen when the human person cooperates with the divine initiative.

The Annunciation of the Lord to Mary and the Meaning of Life

By Deacon Keith Fournier | March 25, 2014

What came about in bodily form in Mary, the fullness of the godhead shining through Christ in the Blessed Virgin, takes place in a similar way in every soul that has been made pure. The Lord does not come in bodily form, for ´we no longer know Christ according to the flesh´, but He dwells in us spiritually and the Father takes up His abode with Him, the Gospel tells us. In this way the child Jesus is born in each of us.- Gregory of Nyssa

Example of the Throwaway Culture of Pope Francis: Aborted Babies Burned for Heat in British Hospitals

By Deacon Keith Fournier | March 25, 2014

The Child in the womb is our neighbor. It is always and everywhere wrong to take innocent human life. The Pro-Life position is a solidarity position. The embryonic human person, the child in the womb, the disabled, the needy, the poor, the elderly, the refugee and the hungry are all members of our human family - and are all our neighbors. The more I hear Pope Francis speak, both through his prophetic actions and his messages, the more I am convinced that he will go down in history as one of the great Pro-Life Popes of this age. I believe that his expression throwaway culture will soon help to inform the new thrust of the human rights movement called Pro-Life.

A Few Choice Words for Beyonce: Stop It Already

By Jennifer Hartline | March 23, 2014

You are a prodigal daughter squandering every good gift God has given you, beginning with the dignity of being His daughter. You were not made to spew forth trash into the world. Your talents were not given you so that you could profane them and yourself, and certainly not so you could get rich flinging dung.

In the hunt for that missing Malaysian jet airliner that fell off the world's screens on March 8, satellite scans from France have provided new indications of objects adrift in the Indian Ocean. These scans confirm existing Chinese evidence as more planes and ships join the search.

Storm Cloud Gathers: Homosexual Couple in London to Sue the Church of England Demanding a Wedding

By Deacon Keith Fournier | March 23, 2014

This wealthy homosexual couple has announced their intention to sue the Church of England to try to compel that Church to perform a homosexual marriage ceremony. Barlow told the Mail - I want to go into my church and marry my husband. The only way forward for us now is to make a challenge in the courts against the Church- All people of good will who recognize the vital role that marriage and family serve in the formation of a truly just society must be courageous and persevere. We should see the news out of Britain as what it is, a wake up call. The Storm Cloud gathers.

Cardinal Raymond Burke Calls the Faithful To Reject Being 'Part-Catholic'

By Deacon Keith Fournier | March 22, 2014

Surely, persons whose hearts are hardened against the truth will read something very different into the approach of Pope Francis, claiming that, in fact, he intends to abandon certain teachings of the Church which our totally secularized culture rejects. Their false praise of the Holy Father's approach mocks the fact that he is the Successor of Saint Peter, totally grounded in the Beatitudes, and that, therefore, with humble trust in God alone, he rejects the acceptance and praise of the world. - Cardinal Raymond Burke
