John Paul II Academy: Tucho Must Go… And Take His Blasphemy With Him

By CHRISTOPHER MANION On January 17th, leaders of the John Paul II Academy for Human Life and the Family formally requested that Pope Francis dismiss Cardinal Víctor Manuel Fernandez from his post as Prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith. “The sensual-mystical literature for which the cardinal has a particular propensity is one of the worst evils of our time,” wrote Dr. Thomas Ward, Academy president and founder of England’s National Association of Catholic Families. It “does nothing but justify the worst excesses of the sexual revolution that is deeply corrupting our society and leading our youth to the abyss.” That statement speaks with authority, because the John Paul II Academy for Human Life and the Family…Continue Reading

The Next America: Getting Closer

By CHRISTOPHER MANION This week, Nicholas DiMarzio, retired bishop of Brooklyn, suggested in OSV News that the U.S. legalize “as many as possible” of the millions of illegal aliens now residing in the United States. The title of his article, “Compromise: An Essential Element of Politics,” was somewhat misleading, because the bishop wasn’t advocating compromise at all. “The best way to fix our broken immigration system,” he writes, “is to examine it holistically, and repair all parts of it…including legalization of the undocumented” (“Never call them illegal,” reads the USCCB’s Eleventh Commandment). Bottom line: Bishop DiMarzio embraces the doctrine of Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.): there aren’t enough Americans, so we need to import new ones. Of course,…Continue Reading

As Biden Luxuriates… U.S. Torn Apart By Border Plan To Transform It For Democrats

By DEXTER DUGGAN PHOENIX — Senile Democrat Joe Biden lawlessly has thrown open U.S. borders to unauthorized entry potentially by everyone in the entire world, and millions are streaming in, as Marxist-tainted Biden plans to crush U.S. citizens and change the very nature of this nation in order to benefit far-left Democrats electorally.      This probably is the most dictatorial, sweeping illegal action ever taken by a U.S. president in history.       Meanwhile, vacationing in luxury in St. Croix, bad Catholic Biden bragged of feasting on all the foods placed before him — even while some unauthorized entrants arrived in the U.S. hungry and ill-clothed but hoping to dip into Americans’ pockets.      During a rare interview from St. Croix…Continue Reading

Cardinal Dolan: Illegal Immigration “Helps Our Church”

By CHRISTOPHER MANION Regardless of any motions that the bishops might adopt every four years affirming the “preeminent issue of abortion,” immigration continues to consume most of their energy. One factor is money.  Our bishops receive no federal funding to support their opposition to abortion, but for their Non-Governmental Organizations (NGO’s) operations facilitating Joe Biden’s immigration policies, they receive millions in taxpayer dollars every year. That funding, and the myriads of the USCCB’s secular operations that it pays for, have drawn increasing attention in recent years. Last month, Archbishop Timothy Cardinal Dolan of New York offered a valuable insight into how this all fits into the current agenda of the American hierarchy. On December 21, in a roundtable discussion sponsored…Continue Reading
