- It may seem like a small thing, skipping weekday Mass. But those little turnings add up to one big Non serviam. At this very moment, I’m passing up a chance to dispose myself towards the good. I’m choosing not-God. As Jesus says, “He that is not with me is against me” (Matt 12:30).
- The Left failed America. It destroyed the formative years of millions of school-age children while upping the cancer rate through neglected screenings, spiking spousal and family abuse, prompting more suicides and drug abuse, wrecking the supply-chain system, stoking ruinous inflation, and all without any data that such lockdowns had ever significantly reduced the death rate, much less so in a cost-to-benefit analysis.

- THE 64 DOLLAR QUESTION
- The infallibility of the pope does not mean in any way that he enjoys unlimited and arbitrary power in matters of government and teaching. The dogma of infallibility, while it defines a supreme privilege, is fixed in precise boundaries, allowing for infidelity, error, and betrayal. Otherwise in the prayers for the Supreme Pontiff there would be no need to pray “non tradat eum in animam inimicorum eius [that he may not be delivered into the hands of his enemies].” If it were impossible for the pope to cross to the enemy camp, it would not be necessary to pray for it not to happen.

- THE IMAGE OF OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE POSES SUCH A THREAT TO ATHEISTS THAT THEY WILL GO TO EXTRAORDINARY LENGTHS TO DISCREDIT IT
- THE CURSE OF OUR TIME IS THAT TOO MANY OF THE WORLDS (AND OUR OWN NATION'S) LEADERS ARE EXERCISING POWER WITHOUT GRACE
- The current “media”—loosely defined as the old major newspapers like the New York Times and Washington Post, the network news channels, MSNBC and CNN, PBS and NPR, the online news aggregators like Google, Apple, and Yahoo, and the social media giants like the old Twitter and Facebook—are corrupt.
