The Catechism states that all men and all women are created with equal dignity and are loved equally by God. What is does not say is that men and women are created equal, as in “one and the same.”  A male’s and a female’s equality is in their worth and dignity, not in their capability or biology. As...

Authentic Catholics do not agree with hard-core feminism, so-called toxic masculinity, and society’s intent to feminize males. We reject these views because they undermine both the natural and supernatural roles of men and women.  Catholics are to uphold the natural order of the sexes not because it is the old-fashioned thing to believe, but because...

What Scripture and Jesus called “the world,” our generation calls “the culture.” Both refer to the society’s values, customs, and social behavior that end up often being corrupt, constituting a coordinated rebellion against God.

An enormous advantage of being homeschooled is each child can be taught when he or she is emotionally ready and intellectually mature enough to start learning certain concepts.

The best parenting style might just be to emulate an air traffic controller. Helicopter-parents hover over their children, bulldozer-parents push away all obstacles or disappointments, and bubble-wrap-parents overprotect and baby their kids.  All of these...

At first thought, no one would think that helicopters, bulldozers, and bubble-wrap are connected in any way. But in actuality, there is a common thread. These are all descriptors of three main types of modern parents' parenting styles. And all three are troublesome.  A disturbingly high number of modern parents can be described as parenting...

The writer and Holocaust survivor, Elie Wiesel, once said, "Without memory, there is no culture. Without memory, there would be no civilization, no society, no future." Regrettably, too many people these days don't have a good grasp on historical events, let alone do they remember something that happened just a few years ago. Take July... Continue Reading →
