By Jordan Davidson, The Federalist - An almost 90-year-old religious statue was destroyed in an El Paso, Texas cathedral on Tuesday, making it one of approximately 200 historical and religious statues vandalized over the last six months... “I am in shock and we at the Cathedral are heartbroken over such an unexpected situation,” said the rector of St. Patrick Cathedral, Fr. Trini Fuentes.

By Fr. Nnamdi Moneme, OMV, Catholic Exchange - Ben Sira has this to say about how our thoughts of death should impact us: “Remember your last days, set enmity aside; remember death and decay, and cease from sin! Think of the commandments, hate not your neighbor; remember the most High’s covenant, and overlook faults”... This ancient biblical writer is recommending that the best way to prepare for death — our death and the death of our loved ones — is to accept the reconciliation that God offers us and offer this same reconciliation to others.

By Donald R. McClarey, The American Catholic - The USCCB is throwing its negligible weight behind the Harris-Biden ticket with their new “Civilize It” program, which repackages their old “Vote for Baby-Killing Socialists or You’re Not Catholic” tract, a.k.a. “Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship, a Call to Political Responsibility."... This is old news, of course. Bear supposes the only thing new is how they’ve managed to get even worse at this. Like the Pope Videos, they’re not even worth ridiculing anymore. They’re simply irrelevant, as is the USCCB itself. Like all the Catholic media out there still obsessing on them.
