In a country where freedom of speech is still preserved—even if inconsistently respected—it is no surprise that thousands took to the streets yesterday in what they called “Hands Off” protests. Their grievance? A supposed assault on democracy, liberty, and human rights by the second Trump administration. Their slogans rang out with dramatic cries of “fascism”…

Your Holiness, It is with both sorrow and necessity that I must take up my pen and write this letter, for a rebuke is never a thing to be lightly undertaken, especially when directed at the Bishop of Rome. However, when a shepherd of the flock distorts the nature of Christian love and misapplies Holy…

What is going on in Minnesota? If anyone needed yet another example that elections have consequences, here it is. The sheer absurdity of Representative Kozlowski’s statement is a testament to how far modern rhetoric has drifted from reason, evidence, and even the most basic understanding of language. To suggest that preserving women’s sports for biological…

It is a sign of great moral confusion that we must now contend for truths so obvious that our ancestors would have regarded their denial as madness.

Racism–the need to ascribe bone-deep features to people and then humiliate, reduce and destroy them–inevitably follows from this inalterable condition… But race is the child of racism, not the father.” Ta-Nehisi Coates. Between the World and Me. (New…

Few films capture the essence of human transformation as vividly as Groundhog Day (1993), starring Bill Murray as Phil Connors, a self-absorbed weatherman trapped in a time loop. Forced to relive February 2nd repeatedly, Phil initially indulges in hedonism, then despairs in his hopeless condition, and ultimately embraces self-improvement and love. This cinematic parable, though…

In January 2023, Jessica Tapia, a physical education teacher at Jurupa Valley High School in California, was terminated after refusing to comply with the Jurupa Unified School District’s policies regarding transgender and gender-nonconforming students.
