Cardinal William Levada, prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, has defended the Pope’s decision to hold an interfaith meeting at Assisi in October.
Several Filipino bishops have announced that they will return state-donated cars following media criticism.
Jeffrey Tucker claims that “vast swaths of existing music used in the English-speaking world are soon to be regarded as illicit”. Fr Anthony Ruff disagrees.
Vatican spokesman Fr Federico Lombardi hails the birth of South Sudan.
Diane Korzeniewski examines the changing face of Fr John Corapi.
Kathryn Jean Lopez defends Archbishop Timothy Dolan against critics of his handling of the New York same-sex marriage vote.
Simcha Fisher recommends that we never trust reports that include the phrase “the Vatican says…”
New direction on reminding the faithful on reverence receiving Holy Communion, and the importance of Eucharistic Adoration are welcome.I come from the Days when we knelt to receive Holy Communion at the Altar Rails, which should be reintroduced to all that are able to do so,especially as this new Mass translation is supposed to bring back reverence. To talk about this matter is all very well, but we cannot believe the Church hierachy on any matter,when they allow such abominations as the soho non-masses for gays in civil unions. Therefore, neither can we trust the agenda behind the new liturgy, if the hierachy isnot faithful on the present liturgy as at soho.
