  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

After his victory, Donald Trump is becoming a pop-culture phenomenon and support for him is becoming more public each day.

In 2015, I began working as a high school teacher in a Catholic school. This was also when the transgender mania began to take off, and we were witnessing it in the lives of our students. I distinctly remember standing in the staff room conversing with colleagues—colleagues who were decidedly liberal (virtually every colleague was liberal)—lamenting the infiltration of gender insanity in the student body. It was the beginning of the school year, and we had all received news that the administration was trying to figure out how to manage the bathroom issue and what to do about girls who said they were guys and guys who said they were girls when it came to things like school plays and which names we were required to use on report cards.

Even among my liberal colleagues, the general opinion was that the poor kids were confused, and we hoped that it would be a passing fad. I recounted to my colleagues that I had recently listened to something from Fulton Sheen wherein he relayed his experience of bringing the Holy Eucharist into mental institutions and how the patients—many of them may have been possessed or afflicted by demons—reacted in strange ways. The patients would disrobe, the women would start making masculine sounds, and other strange things would occur. To my delight, my colleagues found it interesting and asked me to share the information with them so they could better understand what was going on, thinking there might be a spiritual solution to help the confused students.
