Quo vadis, Cardinal Dolan?
Of the prelates of the Church that I think I might most enjoy having a drink with, His Eminence Timothy Cardinal Dolan would be the one. His affability and Irish charm would no doubt be the life of the party. We would probably laugh uproariously over some jokes, enjoy some good conversation, and he would… Continue Reading
The Smoke of Satan
Yet another hit on serious Catholics and Christians. On January 22, President Obama reaffirmed his support for Roe v. Wade saying the government should not intrude in this most private decision. Coupled with the HHS directive requiring health insurers to cover contraception and abortion taking effect this month, and the Inaugural Address support of homosexual… Continue Reading
From Under the Rubble…Cliff Notes
With the passage of the Cliff Fix, Obama has completed the de facto abrogation of the Constitution. In that document, Congress holds first priority: Article One, Section 8, Clause 1 confers upon Congress – specifically the House of Representatives – the taxing power. Moreover, under Article One, Section 7, Clause 1, bills raising revenue must… Continue Reading
From Under the Rubble…The Coverup Kid
The unfolding Petraeus scandal is raining on Obama’s victory parade. The administration successfully covered up the truth about the disaster at the U.S. embassy in Benghazi and the unauthorized “liaisons” at CIA headquarters in Langley until after the election, but, as usual in Washington, the cover-up is greater than the crime. Republicans are crying “foul,”… Continue Reading
Footnote 7: Revenge – Or Love? The Catholic Answer
In Footnote 7, Chris Manion asks: Can a government based on revenge serve the common good? And is love of country a viable alternative?… Continue Reading
From our Mailbag: A Reader in Canada Questions Dolan
An astute observation came to our email from a reader who signed the Petition for the Campaign for Humanae Vitae, that we felt compelled to share here. Dear Bellarmine Forum. Thank you for the opportunity to sign the Humanae Vitae petition from Canada. I am pleased to do so. I was surprised and am concerned… Continue Reading
Farm Subsidiarity and Obama
The wizards of smart in the Obama administration never cease to amaze. By now all thinking Catholics should realize that this administration is anything but friendly to the Church or her doctrines. Yet some still support the President claiming that his initiatives are consonant with Catholic Social Doctrine. Now comes the latest assault on common… Continue Reading
Obama’s “Accommodation”
The February 10th statement of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops noted that President Obama, in revising his health care mandate, “has decided to retain HHS’s nationwide mandate of insurance coverage of sterilization and contraception, including some abortifacients.” His decree “would still mandate that all insurers must include coverage for the objectionable services in… Continue Reading
The HHS Mandate: Obama Regime Claims the Prerogative of God
On January 20, 2012, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius ordered that, effective August 1, 2012, health insurance must cover preventive services including all FDA-approved contraceptive methods, sterilization procedures and patient education and counseling for all women with reproductive capacity, without charging a co-payment, co-insurance or a deductible. “Nonprofit employers,” said Sebelius, “who, based… Continue Reading
Waking the Sleeping Giant
One of the more memorable (and apocryphal) quotes to come out of the Second World War was the quote of Admiral Isoruku Yamamoto, the Japanese commander and mastermind of the attack on Pearl Harbor. After the attack he was supposed to have said: “I fear all we have done is wake a sleeping giant and… Continue Reading
