Vaccine Mandates Must Allow Religious Exemptions

November 4, 2021

Many of us as Christians have moral and religious objections to the Covid vaccine based on the fact that aborted baby tissue was used in its development and testing. There may be other religious objections as well based on beliefs about God's design for the human body and bodily autonomy. When employers, public schools or other institutions try to mandate...

Spreading The Thinking Of Pope John Paul Ii

October 20, 2021

It’s sometimes said Pope St. John Paul II was the most intellectually gifted occupant of the See of Peter ever, but inasmuch as the line of popes stretches back two millennia and includes some known to history only by their names, there is no realistic way of verifying that. What is certain, though, is that Karol Wojtyla was an original...
