Consider this a pre-update on a post that I was writing about Catholic conscience exemptions. The US Conference of Catholic Bishops had opposed the Pelosi plan because of its federal funding for abortions. Now that Pelosi has allowed the Stupak amendment to come to a vote today, a rider that ...

A nice post on the Father of our country and his relations with Catholics, occasioned by the anniversary a few days ago of his ban on the celebration of Guy Fawkes day in the military. Excellent stuff, but this was entirely new to me: did you know Leo the Great called Washington "great"? And in an encyclical no less, so it might be an infallible judgment. Precisely at the epoch when the American...

Since the Vatican announced that an Apostolic Constitution would be forthcoming from Pope Benedict XVI that would allow Anglicans to enter corporately into full communion with the Catholic Church, while maintaining some of their legitimate liturgical rites and traditions, there have been many reactions, some positive and others decidedly less so.

LONDON — The questions before the judges in Courtroom No. 1 of Britain’s Supreme Court were as ancient and as complex as Judaism itself. Who is a Jew? And who gets to decide? On the surface, the court was considering a straightforward challenge to the admissions policy of a Jewish high school in London. But the case, in which arguments concluded Oct. 30, has potential repercussions for...

Perhaps it's peculiar, given my Jewish heritage, or perhaps it's entirely predictable, given my progression from atheism to Catholicism, but I'd never thought to explain anti-Semitism in the way that Meir Soloveichik describes here: As Stanley Hauerwas notes, Berkovits fails...

I'm regularly vexed by my inability to seamlessly rehash empirical data in conversation when I'd assumed it would easily stick as I came upon it for the first time. It's hardly a frustration unique to me, and the conventional explanation that it takes ingesting information three times to internalize it seems to be generally accurate in my experience. Sometimes, though, I am surprised by the inaccuracy...

Bill Donohoe writes about an admission by director Roland Emmerich: When we got word recently that the movie “2012” depicts the Vatican being blown up, along with the famous statue from Rio, Christ the Redeemer, we were unmoved.

Full-blown, full-contact, full-body contact Catholic apologetics have broken out in the comments of one of my posts (it was inevitable, I am sure), and what...
