If God did wink-wink, nod-nod, hint-hint, it would look like this. From all accounts the Maui wildfire can only be described in hellish terms. Nearly every news story can’t help but use the word apocalyptic. Testimony of the enormity, ferocity, suddenness, and extent of the inferno cannot be exaggerated. Warning sirens never sounded; there was …

When victim status is the most sought after credential, we can not be surprised when everyone seeks to incorporate that into the public resume. We used to tell people that being a victim (of whatever) could be overcome; that it was something that happened to you, not something that defines you. But this new class …

I guess this is nice. Hope it stays that way. CNN reports (so it might be really fake news): Pope Francis has opened a free laundromat for the poor in Rome, the Vatican said Monday. Six washing machines, six dryers and a number of irons have been donated by the Whirlpool Corporation, while Proctor and …

“Most Holy Father,… because He [Christ] has given you authority and because you have accepted it, you ought to use your virtue and power. If you do not wish to use it, it might be better for you to resign what you have accepted; it would give more honor to God and health to your …

For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints. I Corinthians 14:33 The Vatican on Saturday dismissed a gay priest from his Holy See job on the eve of a major Church meeting for a highly public coming out that challenged the Roman Catholic teaching that …

The least charitable thing you can do (or be) to someone is to be indifferent to them. A popular slogan was that “Friends don’t let friends drive drunk.” Implicit in this phrase is the presupposition that if you really care about someone you will intervene to stop them from reckless behavior that endangers them and …

Undercover videos, Congressional hearings, Planned Parenthood talking heads (most of whom seem to be employed by CNN). No wonder so many have been so distracted and so disturbed at the same time. The Center for Medical Progress has done a masterful job. They did their homework and executed, as far as I can tell, near …
