    Arizona high court upholds 1864 abortion ban

    I know, you'll brook no further lip from me but I will only say one more thing before I walk away: You wanna save babies ? We gotta start considering women's lives too. Real live, already born women are suffering and dying because of this kind of law, it will cause a real live, real severe...

    Arizona high court upholds 1864 abortion ban

    Yes because the opinion and medical judgement of men that were living at the time to slavery in America is better then the opinion and medical of 21st Century American's. Be against abortion. We're on a Catholic forum after all, but let's get real here: Enforcing a 170 year old that was on...

    Planned Parenthood reports record number of abortions in latest annual report

    Supporting documentation for any claims for any statistical analysis during this post Anyway.... This was predictable. It was predicable for two easy to understand reasons even if those reasons are inconvenient for some people. The GOP is coming after the abortion rights and contraceptive...

    Defending the Faith in the Rabbit Hole of Social Media

    Good move. No, seriously, good. move. Social Media with not only be the death of modern society. It will, in all likelihood, be the death of the internet as we know it. It's sad, really, but the creation of bots and trolls is a billion dollar a year industry and growing. I won't even...

    Do Human Beings Have Infinite Dignity?

    Can someone be kind enough to explain to me just how my dignity as a human is bounded ? Where, when and under what circumstances is my dignity limited ? Just wondering.

    Catholics must avoid spreading cremated ashes and ‘human composting’: Here’s why

    Sorry , can't do it. Won't do it. Sue me. It's got nothing to do with pantheism, naturalism or nihilism. It got to do with physical science. We are stardust. Seriously, where do you think the substances that make up your body were made ? In the cores of Supernova. That's just cool. I...

    Notre Dame fire, 5 years later: What are the plans for reopening the cathedral in Paris?

    Man I remember that fire. The Paris Fire Brigade acquitted itself so impressively. How they managed to put that fire out and save the skeleton of building and it's stained glass is amazing.

    Belgian Police Forecefully Shut Down National Conservatism Conference; Local Mayor Cites ‘Anti-Gay and Anti-Abortion’ Views of Attendees

    Not all anti-gay, anti-abortion people hold those views from a moral perspective. Some are Neo-Fascist, anti-democracy blessed son's of God. This crew invited Brexiteer Nigel Farage and Viktor Orban. Yeah. Sorry, I don't want to associated with these two in any way and I don't care if...

    Why We Should Be Cautious of Jordan Peterson

    Simon - For a guy (person? - I mean I don't know your gender really) who claims to know nothing about Mr. Peterson this is a rather long and detailed critique. I'm especially impressed with the whole Neo-platonic section and the comparison to Mr. Peterson's thinking. Thank you for raising...

    Catholics in Gaza are burying dead in Muslim cemeteries

    Not to be a grammar NAZI, but more for point of interest or edification: A "cemetery" is a free standing piece of land meant for burying the dead. If the piece of land meant for burying the dead is next to associated with a place of worship (like a church), it's correctly called a...

    Bishop says America would ‘grind to a standstill’ without immigrants

    Well, he's not wrong. The Center for American progress statistics (I'm sorry I can't reference it right now - you'll have to rely on my reputation on this) claims immigrants are going to account for 1.7 Trillion dollars in additional GDP economic growth between now and 2035. That's a big...

    Why We Should Be Cautious of Jordan Peterson

    I keep reading about this Jordan Peterson fella and I have looked up who he is but I can't for the life of me figure out why I (or anyone else) should give a flying fascination about anything he says or does. To me he's on par with the Kardasian's. Just famous for being famous. So what ?
