read more...I was recently called out in a Catholic group ( CatholicCT if anyone cares) for a sarcastic comment. It was deleted, the admin snarked something about sarcasm isn’t welcome and inferred it wasn’t Christian. Ahhh, deliver us from the thin-skinned and ignorant. Sarcasm and satire are embedded in the Gospel of all places. Jesus Himself…

The Citizen tackles this – and the failings of the heterodoxy of Protestantism – in this essay.
Today’s Gospel is one I’ve always enjoyed hearing – it gives me a taste of the sheer joy that is Christmas for Christians. Today, it served a different purpose. For some time, the Citizen has been concerned about a schism not only among Catholics but Christians as a whole – and that great divide is…
Another ‘Catholic’ politician crowns himself as a Doctor of the Church – and like Madame Pelosi – gets it wrong.
The Democratic party has excised God from their platform. Joe Stalin, Karl Marx, and Mao would be proud.
