Catholic Health Care and Religious Freedom Are Under Attack
The fight against the culture of death is a fight for lives and for souls. However, it is also a fight for the freedom of Christians to live their lives and raise their families in accordance with their beliefs, and to participate on equal terms in the public square. The further our culture moves away…

In recent years, it is all too rare that pro-family activists have won any significant victories. From the passage of civil union laws, to the legalization of same-sex “marriage,” and now the rapid spread of an extreme and coercive form of gender ideology, it seems that we have been losing one major battle after another.…

Without sounding like a radical conspiracist, we in the United States are dancing precariously on the edge of a knife.

Beyond a doubt, one of the gravest threats to the freedom of Christians in many Western nations right now is posed by the efforts of LGBT activists to outlaw any form of dissent from their progressive sexual ideology.

Over at First Things last week, Prof. Robert George published a clever thought experiment. Prof. George, in case you don’t know, is one of the rarest of specimens these days – an openly and proudly pro-life, pro-family, and faithfully Catholic faculty member at an Ivy League university, in this case Princeton University. In his article,…

Over the past decade the Democrat party has been careening towards the radical left, occupied these days by an intolerant cabal of ideological extremists whose main concerns include the unrestricted right to choose an abortion, whether toddlers are being sufficiently affirmed in their “transgender” identity, and how to expunge every person with the slightest conservative…
Read MoreCancel Culture: Silent Majority MUST Speak
A few days ago, a top executive at Boeing resigned. Niel Golightly, ex-Senior Vice President of Communications at the Boeing Company, apologized in a statement for penning an “embarrassingly wrong and offensive” article…in 1987, thirty-three years ago.
