I recently received a gift from a fan – the book “Catholics” by Brian Moore. The book is a foretelling of the direction the Catholic Church is headed after the Second Vatican Council. Here, I read a particular passage, and give my (very) brief thoughts.

I sat down with my father to discuss his extensive work analyzing the epistle to the Romans. He sought out to better understand his Catholic faith and answer objections to issues of theology. His experience seeking out information is a model for us all as we seek to be ever closer to God. Eugene's Resources: […]

The intersection of Saint Pope John Paul II and Missy Elliot.

Getting back to Letter to Women with our clearer understanding of JP2’s exposition on the dignity of woman.

What does a feminist look like? What does one advocate for? What does one seek to abolish?
