By David Warren, The Catholic Thing - One of the most encouraging aspects of contemporary life is the sudden drop in university enrolments. This is unambiguously an improvement in human affairs, at least in the United States... The steep decline – “very large and very discouraging,” according to Mr. Bill DeBaun, senior director of the National College Attainment Network – reverses all signs of recovery from the Batflu (“COVID”) infestation, in which students were actually shut out of residences, and deprived of “services” for which they had paid.

By Edward Pentin - The first interactive online resource of its kind, 40 cardinals are profiled in-depth revealing who they are and where they stand on various issues, along with summary profiles of the remaining 200 plus members of the Sacred College including the 21 who received the red hat last week... Working with an international team of Catholic journalists and researchers, both Vatican journalist Diane Montagna, the project’s executive director, and I have endeavored to provide a fact-based and reliably sourced database of information on the largest and most diverse College of Cardinals in the Church’s history.
