By Complicit Clergy, by Staff - ... we learn that before he went to work for Hicks, Salvato worked as a canon lawyer for Archbishop Jose Gomez for 10 years. Salvato worked in the Metropolitan Tribunal were he oversaw the investigation of nearly 200 marriage annulment cases each year. Did you get that? Gómez assigned a homosexual man to make decisions about hundreds of marriage annulments in his archdiocese. How is someone who does not subscribe to the Catholic Church’s teaching on human anthropology make decisions about a sacramental marriage involving a man and a woman? A Catholic woman shared similar concerns in a comment on the Salvato news last week.

By Bishop Joseph E. Strickland, Bishop Emeritus, Pillars of Faith - We are still in Christmas. The Church insists on that. She stretches the feast across days because the mystery is too large to be taken in all at once. The joy is real. Heaven has opened. God has come among us. The Word has taken flesh, and nothing can undo that triumph. The light shines, and it is not overcome... But this joy is not fragile, and it is not naïve. It is strong enough to look straight at the truth... That is why the Church does not ask us to leave Christmas behind when she places these witnesses before us. She asks us to understand Christmas more deeply. ....
