    America and the West: What is the cultural glue?

    Is equality under the law in mortal peril?

    One of the most common sayings in the English language is "the straw that broke the camel's back," signifying the gradual accumulation of heavy burden until finally, one additional blade of straw collapses the camel to his knees, no longer able to successfully bear the burden.

    The many forms of child abuse: Where are the adults?

    Don Wildmon: A Heaven-sent blessing for America

    The universal uniqueness of Christmas

    What is Christmas about? What is all the fuss?

  • Is a Catholic ‘charter school’ the answer?

    Is a Catholic ‘charter school’ the answer?

    If Catholics in Oklahoma want such a school, it must be funded by private money furnished by the supporters of such education. Let me be clear, I would oppose such a sectarian charter school if it were Baptist.

  • Is America leading the world in ‘child neglect’?

    Is America leading the world in ‘child neglect’?

    America’s future will in large part depend on whether we revalue marriage, parenting, and child-rearing at the expense of the self-destructive and false search for meaning and self-fulfillment in sexual self-gratification. Our nation’s children await our answer.

  • Thanksgiving: In everything give thanks to God

    Thanksgiving: In everything give thanks to God

    I would urge everyone to exercise the spiritual discipline of “giving thanks.” When you start, you will be amazed at all the things the Holy Spirit will bring to your attention.
