Father Robert McTeigue continues his “Novel Prophecies” series with Yevgeny Zamyatin’s We, a banned novel about a society that sacrifices human freedom for the sake of order.

The Catholic Current w/ Fr. Robert McTeigue, S.J. retweeted
France never seems too far from a rambunctious protest-turned-riot, so even when engulfed streets reach our press, few raise more than an eyebrow. But there is something fascinating about the Marxist-Islamic alliance that is behind the flames.

The right to life is the premier moral issue because all human rights depend upon the human person being alive. The right to life is the common ground for the morality of all issues considered in policies involving human dignity and the common good. @FWdiocese @TXCatholic
James Talarico worked to find common ground with one Texas voter who said she votes exclusively on the issue of abortion. Talarico said that while he supports some abortion access, he said he wants to see fewer unplanned pregnancies and abortions overall, and that the issue should be viewed instead as a "public policy problem."

We welcome author Arthur Schaper to discuss why marriage still matters and why Christians should be willing to defend it. What happens when marriage is treated as a private preference rather than the foundation of family and society, and what does it look like for Christians to stand for marriage when doing so comes with a cost?

The Catholic Current w/ Fr. Robert McTeigue, S.J. retweeted
We have become increasingly reluctant to call evil what it is, preferring to explain even horrific acts through trauma and pathology. When suffering becomes an excuse for evil, we dehumanize the very people we claim to defend.
