  • 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.

William Baldwin is opening up about the issue of homelessness and his own faith life ahead of his latest film.

“The main thing we’re trying to do is raise awareness, raise compassion towards this issue,” the 62-year-old actor told Our Sunday Visitor about starring in “No Address,” a new drama featuring the stories of people who unexpectedly experience homelessness. He hopes that new awareness will mobilize audiences to new action, especially through their faith communities.

“If you are a Catholic and you are engaged in your church community, I’m sure that they’re already engaged on the local level through your parish,” said Baldwin, who was raised Catholic. “Through the churches that I go to in Santa Barbara, we’re doing all sorts of programs to serve underprivileged and underserved communities.”

Inspired by true events, “No Address” will be released in theaters nationwide Feb. 28. The movie makes the case that “homelessness could happen to anyone” and highlights the importance of hope and faith, the dignity of the human person, and the impact of church outreach for people experiencing homelessness.
