For the Love of a Dog
Dogs were given the task of making God’s love of mankind known every day, and they do a fantastic job of it.

Joan of Arc: Model of Strength
In our glorification of Joan’s work and martyrdom, I believe it becomes a temptation to gloss over the Joan of Arc who was tried before being burned at the stake. The Joan who was taken to trial is the Joan we should – and can – aspire to be, because the Joan at trial was incredibly human.

As Catholics, we know that we have a call to be “in the world, not of the world.” I find that many use this catchy

Not A Game of Chance: What Marriage is Really All About

Understanding the Dark Side of the Moon: Part Two
To pro-“choicers,” they really are more pro-child than pro-lifers. Why? Because pro-“choicers” don’t believe that a child should be forced upon a mother who doesn’t want him.

Understanding the Dark Side of the Moon: Part One
In one of my first philosophy classes my professor told us, “You will never get anywhere unless you understand what the other person is saying. Don’t assume that they are being dishonest. Rather, look at what they are saying and ask yourself ‘what must they be thinking or assuming for what they are arguing to be true and rational?’ Only then are you legitimized in disagreeing and arguing with them, because only then do you give their argument credence.”

Mary: Pro-Life Mother
We must avoid the great temptation to see ourselves as Mary, present to the crucified Christ of aborted children. While “whatever you did to the least of these you did to me” is a main message of the pro-life movement, equating the killing of children with the persecution of Christ, pro-lifers must be careful not to see themselves solely as those who don’t “do to the least of these.” We must learn to be Mary in the pro-life movement….

Pro-Choice Violence and Radical Love
These men will be saints one day. Indeed, what other movement so calls for and creates saints as the pro-life movement? What movement challenges its people to such radical love, peace, and joy as the pro-life movement? To be Catholic is to be pro-life because to be pro-life is to acknowledge that there is, to quote Samwise Gamgi, “goodness out there, and it’s worth fighting for!

Room at the Table
I began that night to pray for unity within the Church. I remain hopeful that I may come to see a re-union of Christianity in my lifetime, and I hope that others may come to see that there is room – there will always be room – at the Table of our Lord’s Supper.
