Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, o ‘Lord, Lord… did we not do mighty deeds in your name?’ The most remarkable line of the...
“You shall not oppress a resident alien; you well know how it feels to be an alien, since you were once aliens yourselves in the land of Egypt” (Exodus 23:9). Last week the traditionalist publication Crisis Magazine posted a scathing response to the Michigan Catholic Bishops’ February pastoral letter on immigration. Penned by lawyer and Republican Michigan attorney general...
However, if one studies the development of the question of social justice, one cannot fail to note that, whereas during the period between Rerum Novarum and Pius XI’s Quadragesimo Anno the Church’s teaching concentrates mainly on the just solution of the “labour question” within individual nations, in the next period the Church’s teaching widens its horizon...

Using Church teaching, papal encyclicals, and historical context, Pedro debunks three widespread...
This is the fifth article in our series “Man and Woman – Image of the Triune God.” The first was “What is the Real Thing For Women?” The second was “Image of One – Image of Three.” The third was “Gift and Response” and the fourth was “The Oeconomic Kingdom.” In our series,...
I read in a recent science magazine article that 99% of the deep ocean bed remains undiscovered. Oceans cover 71% percent of the earth’s surface and they house 99% of the earth’s biosphere. This means that many of our planet’s living organisms are not yet known to us. Similarly, humans only know 5...

Last November, Cardinal Fernández (the head of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith) said that the Church was considering making “spiritual abuse” a crime in Canon Law. Over the next couple days, I probably had 15 different people text me asking me if I’d seen this news and what my thoughts were...
