Our politicized culture even makes science into a propaganda tool instead of an investigation into objective truth. Does anyone really know if “global warming” is real or not? “Science” seems to support both sides of the argument because science has been used as a weapon rather than as an honest search for the truth. This video calls us to task on accepting such a culture. Continue reading

I just had the pleasure of speaking to youth at a family event in our neighboring diocese. The theme of the conference was God’s plan for our sexuality and family. When my talk on “True Sex” was finished, I sat in on the end of the adult track.

The fact that our local newspaper editors won’t comment on moral choices, but will endorse a presidential candidate, shows that they do not understand the true nature of conscience. Continue reading

Cheaters Never Prosper

Ok, “cheaters never prosper” is a cliche. But so is “every law was meant to be broken,” yet we hear this saying much more often – in word or idea. Our country is currently suffering from the greedy cheating of people associated with the Annie Mae and Freddie Mac companies. In 2002 we heard about a number of scholars who had plagiarized or otherwise misrepresented themselves and their scholarly work… Continue reading
