Young Catholics for Ordered Migration wants the bishops to hear another view on immigration, one rooted in the Church’s tradition. crisismagazine.com/opinion/m…
The self-centered Anthropocentric Spirituality that crept into the Church after Quietism, with its endless “discernment,” is the forerunner of what is today called Synodality.

Can Catholics “do” horror on Halloween? The answer is a qualified one—and it is (shocker) in favor of horror.

Life Is Beautiful shows that life, all life, truly is beautiful—yes, even when it leaves us seemingly helpless on the inside of a concentration camp.

Six years after the last Q posts, their message still holds: encouragement on the eve of battle. The fight is at hand, it’s a spiritual one, and there will not be a neutral ground.

Few novels offer a more vivid portrait of authentic friendship than Dracula, and few set it against a darker villain. The Count has slaves, victims, and brides, but not a single friend.

We don’t need to know why Fr. Chad Ripperger was asked to step out of the limelight. But today’s cult of celebrity exorcists feeds an unhealthy curiosity about the demonic, and any good priest should want to live his vocation in hiddenness.

Athletes who walk off the court during the national anthem reveal what sports have become. Once touted as the place where character was formed, sports have become an epicenter of privilege.

The DDF’s new document Venite ad me deliberately avoids “terminological precision,” and it misses the real story. “Epochal change” is not the problem; the failure of faith is what it is all about.

Catholic marriages have collapsed since 1975, and one overlooked obstacle keeps young Catholics from even dating: cringe. With St. Thomas Aquinas as our guide, Catholic young adult culture can become more beautiful, friendship-centered, and natural.

Earning something may give us a right to possess it, but not freedom from responsibility for its use. Has personal comfort replaced our Christian responsibility to future generations?

We need to defend a Catholic sense of “triumphalism.” Since truth and the triumph of Christ are inseparable, politeness must not mute the Faith.
