- MERRICK GARLAND HAS GIVEN AMERICA OUR OWN VERSION OF ADOLPH HITLER’S GESTAPO
- It is obvious that many bishops do not understand the role of a bishop. It is not a bishop’s role to be as obedient as possible. It is to sanctify his people as much as essential obedience allows. This is why bishops have broad powers to dispense from universal Church law, to make diocesan law, and even to replace elements of universal law with particular law. Within the limits of Catholic doctrine and of essential obedience, sanctifying his people requires taking them—rather than the pope—as the basic point of reference.
- Civilization alone permits humans to pursue sophisticated scientific research, the arts, and the finer aspects of culture.
- Later writers inverted St. Thomas’ principles. For them perfection does not consist primarily in choosing God as the supreme good but in obeying Him as the supreme authority. Perfecting obedience was then elevated above perfecting prayer. The natural but absurd conclusion is the belief that to pray less deeply but under perfect obedience pleases God more than to pray perfectly while being minimally obedient.
- Chinese campaign donor Johnny Chung famously stated that the Clinton White House was “like a subway. You have to put in coins to open the gates.”

- In America and the Catholic Church, we are losing the Nones, the young and the confused who are unaffiliated. I think that things are even worse: these Nones seem to define the post-Christian world in which we live and that becomes very much like a post-post-Christian world. Because we are in a world that has lost an appreciation for the true, the beautiful and the good. This is really two steps back from Catholicism.
