President Donald Trump signed an executive order which said that detained families will be held together "where appropriate and consistent with law and available resources."

In the June 20 statement, Cardinal Timothy Dolan, archbishop of New York, said the alleged abuse happened nearly 50 years ago.

Allegations about the cardinal have been floating about the Internet and in religion-news circles for way more than a decade regarding much heavier stuff than a 47-year-old incident.

It is not merely that we "reject the sin, but love the sinner," though we do that; we reject the sin because we love the sinner — radically love him, willing his good for his own sake, affirming the teaching of the Church in all its richness because we recognize that it is liberating and life-affirming.

Let's be honest: We do not have a "homosexual priest" problem within the Church. Rather, we have a homosexualist priest problem within the Church.

Imagine your daughters roller-skating down their street and greeting Pope Francis like it's the most normal thing in the world.

The Left's dishonesty about families disguises its real intentions.

The American public needs to stop selective outrage.

The question of immigration is complicated enough under the best circumstances. But the problem of mass migration, much of it illegal, in a globalized world of radical diversity, is thorny indeed.

No child should have to lose his or her father to gender confusion.

From this perspective, diversity is not merely a social fact. It is a cultural, economic, and political project intended not just to recognize difference but to generate and manage it.

One of the lessons of a life in journalism is that people are always way more complicated than you think.

Recently, some psychologists and psychiatrists publicly disagreed with the heavy lobbying by activists to normalize Gender Identity Disorder by removing it from the category of "disorder."

In the May 1892 issue of Le Banquet, a young Marcel Proust wrote a spirited condemnation, excerpted here, of the secularizing French Left. In terms that are eerily resonant with our own time, Proust underlines the necessity of the Church as a bulwark of popular virtue and a shield for the body politic against malign political forces.

In the global culture war, secularism is suddenly facing a strong challenge: the return of the sacred.

The only sensible reason is that what the Church teaches is true to its immediate origin in divinity itself.

"How beautiful, then, the marriage of two Christians, two who are one in hope, one in desire, one in the way of life they follow."

After intentional abortion, lead pollution is quite possibly one of the largest killers of the unborn.

Persons are created equal in dignity regardless of race, ethnicity, sex, age, religion, handicap or other reasons — except when it comes to abortion.

Do not let the dark moments define you.
