Cloning for Dollars
Just Catholic: The promises of cloning science are just that: promises. We should not support them with either free-market or tax dollars.
Just Catholic
Just Catholic is a Catholic perspective on the news -- especially when the church itself becomes the news -- from Phyllis Zagano. If we talk about religion, we must talk about the way we live it. It’s not only relationship with God, it’s relationship with ourselves and with each other.
Abortion comes to Ireland
Just Catholic: Ireland's cleverly titled "Protection of Life during Pregnancy Bill 2013" supposedly clarifies current Irish law. It does not. It changes it.
The men of CDF and the women of LCWR by the numbers
Just Catholic: Don't you find it odd that the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith issues statements about what it says Pope Francis said to the congregation prefect?
Repair my Curia
Just Catholic: First Pope Francis got rid of the cufflinks. Next he'll fix the bureaucracy -- or so we hope.
Gun control matters
Just Catholic: Can you tell me, what's the deal with everybody wanting guns? The last time I looked out the window, there weren't any British soldiers marching down the street.
The red and the black
Just Catholic: The elephant in the Sistine Chapel is female, and she's not leaving. Will the red and the black and the new white take a chance on her?
The media is not the message
Just Catholic: Now that the Academy Awards are over, we can watch the papal election. They look pretty similar on the flat screen, even down to the red shoes.
Praying in Washington
Just Catholic: The National Prayer Breakfast last week was a wonderful display of what people of different faiths can do when they work together.
Women, combat, church
A lot of folks have been writing about the Pentagon's decision to allow women in combat. I don't think any of them has ever put on a uniform and sworn an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic.
I have.
The Pro-Abortion United Nations
Just Catholic: The pro-life folks prepping for the March for Life should point their feet toward the United Nations because of its recent pro-abortion rights choices.
