Is the Family Still Fundamental? by James Kalb

By James Kalb, Catholic World Report - Last month, I suggested that subsidiarity comes from the idea that social order begins with the family, and proceeds from there to ever broader communities and ultimately to the whole world... This view makes the family the fundamental social institution. That means it isn’t just a private contract or a matter of legal or social prescription. It’s something more deeply rooted in human nature: a durable union of man and woman that is complementary and oriented toward bringing new life into the world.

Catholic Priest: Nobody Has the Right to Violate Another Country’s Immigration Laws, by Fr. Donald Kloster

By Fr. Donald Kloster, LifeSiteNews - There has been huge pushback after the few times I have addressed the important topic of immigration from the pulpit. I recall giving a sermon on illegal immigration in early 2019 at a parish in the Diocese of Bridgeport, Connecticut.

Her insults were flying in Spanish and I was providentially keeping my composure.

By Charles A. Coulombe, OnePeterFive - Since 1948 and the British withdrawal from their erstwhile Mandate over Palestine, the rest of the world has been forced to watch the Israelis and Palestinians do their best to wreak havoc on one another – while the local Christians and the Holy Places are held hostage, as it were, with the former constantly diminishing in numbers, influence, and safety. Now, given the atrocities committed at different times by the two parties upon each other, one can understand why each feel justified in committing more in retaliation for the last round.
