A Beacon Of Light . . . St. Peter And The Early Church

April 27, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on A Beacon Of Light . . . St. Peter And The Early Church

By FR. RICHARD D. BRETON JR. (Editor’s Note: Fr. Richard D. Breton Jr. is a priest of the Diocese of Norwich, Conn. He received his BA in religious studies and his MA in dogmatic theology from Holy Apostles College and Seminary in Cromwell, Conn.) + + The Easter Season is a time filled with so many opportunities to grow in the knowledge of the faith. One of the ways we can do this is by recognizing the important role people played in the Early Church. Understanding the role these people played in the formation of the Church assists us in recognizing the responsibility we have today in living the faith. Over the next few weeks, we will take a look…Continue Reading

The Long Knives Are Coming Out

April 26, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on The Long Knives Are Coming Out

By DEACON MIKE MANNO I think we’ve probably known all along that in the current state of things our religious liberty would be under attack. I’ve written about those things and my radio program has highlighted many more. Until recently, however, the attacks have been somewhat muted, limited to isolated instances, and, at least to the general public, not very brazen.But with a new political magisterium of faux Christianity, faux patriotism, faux liberty, along with the growing acceptance of a cancel culture, the New Left has ratcheted up the ante and no longer tries to conceal its vulgar attacks on Catholicism, people of faith, and conservative Christians.So while the Equality Act, endorsed by the president and the majority party leaders…Continue Reading

The Battle Against Life Goes On

April 24, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on The Battle Against Life Goes On

By CHRISTOPHER MANION In recent weeks we’ve heard arguments surrounding the use of vaccines derived from tissues of aborted babies. Well, last week a new dimension was added to the conversation when Judicial Watch revealed that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had spent tens of thousands of U.S. taxpayer dollars to buy “human fetal tissue” for use in “scientific” experiments.We know that Planned Parenthood has been accused of trafficking in the remains of unborn children, but now it appears that the U.S. government is paying for it. That doesn’t seem to bother the administration of “Catholic Joe” Biden. In fact, Joe’s going to make sure the FDA has a steady supply. Last Thursday, April 15, his Department of Health…Continue Reading

The Great Promise

April 23, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on The Great Promise

By JOE SIXPACK St. Margaret Mary Alacoque was born in 1647 in France. It is Margaret Mary who was responsible for spreading devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. From a very early age, Margaret Mary wanted nothing more than to give her life to the service of God, so she entered the convent of the Visitation Sisters. This is where her love for the Blessed Sacrament became so strong she could only tear herself away from the Divine Presence with the greatest difficulty.She used to tell Jesus in the Most Blessed Sacrament that she wanted to be consumed with love for Him the way a candle is consumed by fire.Once while she was deep in prayer before the tabernacle,…Continue Reading

Neither Left Nor Right, But Catholic . . . The Left’s Attack On Its Longtime Ally, The Supreme Court

April 22, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on Neither Left Nor Right, But Catholic . . . The Left’s Attack On Its Longtime Ally, The Supreme Court

By STEPHEN M. KRASON Joe Biden has established — by means of executive order, as usual — a commission to study “reforming” the Supreme Court. Interestingly, there hasn’t been any request coming from the third branch itself — from the current justices — or even a major push from the legal community to do this. It’s supposed to be a bipartisan commission, but one can be sure it will be dominated by leftist legal scholars with the Republican partisans who will be selected likely being pseudo-moderates who will be ready to go along.At best, there might be a token genuine constitutionalist or two on the commission who will have little influence on its proceedings and conclusions. Nor should one believe…Continue Reading

Biden’s Incredible Incompetence . . . Rewards Waves Of Illegal Immigrants He Begged To Invade U.S.

April 21, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on Biden’s Incredible Incompetence . . . Rewards Waves Of Illegal Immigrants He Begged To Invade U.S.

By DEXTER DUGGAN PHOENIX — A Mexican-heritage U.S. citizen told The Wanderer that part of the reason illegal immigrants flee into the United States is because their small Central American homelands aren’t “independently viable or sustainable. They should never have been allowed to exist in the first place,” but should have remained part of other countries.Reymundo Torres, a Catholic who lives in the eastern Phoenix suburbs, made that remark in an April 13 email interview on the current invasion at the southern U.S. boundary created by Joe Biden’s rejection of President Trump’s border-security policies.Torres was born in the United States but was sent by his parents to attend college and study the Spanish language in Mexico City, so he’d have…Continue Reading

A Beacon Of Light . . . Follow The Example Of The Early Church

April 20, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on A Beacon Of Light . . . Follow The Example Of The Early Church

By FR. RICHARD D. BRETON JR. (Editor’s Note: Fr. Richard D. Breton Jr. is a priest of the Diocese of Norwich, Conn. He received his BA in religious studies and his MA in dogmatic theology from Holy Apostles College and Seminary in Cromwell, Conn.) + + On April 4, 2021 we entered the joyful season of Easter which celebrates the Resurrection of Christ. This season extends seven weeks and includes the Scripture passages of Jesus revealing Himself to the disciples. Looking deeper into the Easter Season we find an important aspect of the Church. What do we find? We find the Church at the moments prior to her birth! We encounter Jesus, the Resurrected Lord, in the final moments as…Continue Reading

Is Twitter A Common Carrier?

April 19, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on Is Twitter A Common Carrier?

By DEACON MIKE MANNO Two weeks ago I wrote about Judge Laurence Silberman’s critique of the current state of the U.S. media, which he found to be biased against conservatives and Republicans. By way of warning, the judge, a member of the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, wrote: “The First Amendment is more than just a legal provision: It embodies the most important value of American Democracy. Repression of political speech by large institutions with market power therefore is — I say this advisedly — fundamentally un-American.”The context of the case in which the judge made those remarks concerned how he saw the judicial misuse of the Supreme Court’s rulings requiring the showing of “actual malice” by certain plaintiffs in…Continue Reading

Next Step, Marx To The Max? Best Way To Cure Society’s Fevers Is Dictatorial Politics And Strife?

April 18, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on Next Step, Marx To The Max? Best Way To Cure Society’s Fevers Is Dictatorial Politics And Strife?

By DEXTER DUGGAN The coronavirus seems a bit less of a mystery today than when it first exploded into our consciousness, and inside victims’ bodies. It hasn’t proved to be the all-encompassing disaster that widely was feared in early 2020. And Dr. Anthony Fauci hasn’t exhibited the powers of a genie in the medicine show that he tried to sell us.Seeing the news coverage from New York City back then of shrouded bodies stacked up and morgues reportedly overflowing, I thought that maybe half of the U.S. population including me would be dead before long. I’m not spilling the beans to say that that didn’t come true.As is well known by now, the states with liberal Democratic political rulership over…Continue Reading

Court Victories For Life And Religious Freedom Enrage The Left

April 17, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on Court Victories For Life And Religious Freedom Enrage The Left

By CHRISTOPHER MANION Two recent Federal Court decisions reflect the valuable contributions of President Trump to the defense of the Constitution.On Friday, April 9, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Tandon v. Newsom that California’s radical China Virus regulations violated the religious liberties granted by God and reaffirmed by the Bill of Rights. In guaranteeing the right of Californians to host Bible Studies in their homes, the court made clear that when “any secular activity [is treated] more favorably than religious exercise,” the case “trigger[s] strict scrutiny under the Free Exercise clause.”Tuesday, April 13 in Preterm-Cleveland v. McCloud, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit ruled against an injunction previously placed against Ohio’s Down Syndrome Non-Discrimination Act. The…Continue Reading
