Dr. Jeff Mirus: Crying to Heaven for Vengeance (2004)

By Dr. Jeff Mirus, Catholic Culture - And the Lord said, “What have you done? The voice of your brother’s blood is crying to me from the ground.” (Gn 4:10) It is hardly surprising that Cain’s murder of Abel provides the first instance of one of these sins that cries out for Divine vengeance.

The 60 Million Deaths We’ve Forgotten (And They’re Not From COVID-19), Allen Jackson

By Allen Jackson, The Stream - The first bit of news I saw on a recent morning was that COVID- 19 deaths had approached 3,000 people the previous day, approximately two persons a minute. It’s tragic information... But our response is in stark contrast to another truth that is awkward to talk about. On average, 3,000 times a day, seven days a week, year upon year, we’ve terminated a child’s life with abortion. It’s a sobering fact. We’ve sacrificed 60 million children while we have dithered about what to do.
