On January 11, all but two congressional Democrats voted against a bill that would mandate medical care for infants born alive following a botched abortion (one voted with the Republicans and one voted present).

By |2023-03-16T14:39:15-04:00March 16th, 2023|Categories: Catalyst, Features|Tags: |

Most people who call themselves pro-choice do not support abortion-on-demand, and indeed favor restrictions on when and why a woman should be able to abort her child.

Pope Benedict XVI was a towering intellectual, something he shared with his predecessor, St. John Paul II. His philosophical and theological writings will be studied for decades. But it was his courage that endeared him to so many Catholics. As Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, he served St. John Paul II as enforcer of the Church's doctrinal teachings. [...]

William A. Donohue No institution in American history has been more resolute in its opposition to abortion than the Catholic Church. Protestants and Jews were almost in lockstep praising Roe v. Wade in 1973, largely because our side was against it. Then things changed. In the 1970s, evangelical Protestants moved away from their reflexive anti-Catholicism and [...]

2022 YEAR IN REVIEW

By |2024-02-01T13:51:05-05:00January 18th, 2023|Categories: Catalyst, Essay|Tags: |

Michael P. McDonald, Director of Communications The forces working to undermine the Catholic Church and our Judeo-Christian values doubled-down in 2022.

DISNEY’S IGER IS THE PROBLEM, NOT THE ANSWER

By |2024-02-01T13:51:07-05:00January 18th, 2023|Categories: Catalyst, Features|Tags: |

Bob Chapek, who was fired as the Disney CEO, certainly made enemies in and out of Disney. But he is not entirely to blame. Much of that goes to his predecessor, and now successor, Bob Iger. Few outside of Disney even heard of Chapek until he made a big splash sticking his nose into politics early [...]

KUDOS TO CANDACE CAMERON BURE

Candace Cameron Bure wants Christmas movies to feature moms, pops and kids, and for this she is being blasted by homosexual activists and Christian bashers in Hollywood. She has been called a "bigot," "rude and hurtful." And apparently she is guilty of the worst sin of them all, for using "tradition as a guise for exclusion." [...]
