Pope Francis: Practice Humility, Gentleness and Patience

Last updated on: November 15, 2024 at 8:37 am By Rebecca Hamilton

Pope Francis homily at mass today was an important message for all of us. We sometimes forget that the way of Christ is not the way of the world. Humility, gentleness nd patience are not virtues that our culture promotes. But, the Holy Father told us, they are the way of peace.

We Need to Remember What Presidents Do.

Last updated on: November 15, 2024 at 9:31 am By Rebecca Hamilton

I’m sure that Public Catholic readers will have their faves who aren’t on this list. I imagine you’ll also disagree with the inclusion of one of two of those who are already on it. However, watching this is a good reminder of what presidents do … or did … for this country; how much they cared about all the people, and how they conducted their office. Read more

Pope Francis: Fidelity is another Word for Love.

Last updated on: November 15, 2024 at 10:22 am By Rebecca Hamilton

Pope Francis gave a teaching on the meaning of the Sixth Commandment. Thou shalt not commit adultery might better be referred to as the late great sixth commandment, at least in today’s society. The Holy Father emphasized that fidelity is one of the hallmarks of true love for another person. Without this fidelity, there is no trust, and without trust, love withers and dies. From Vatican News: Waiting for the Pope at the Pope Francis: You can’t love only... Read more

Pipe bombs were sent to Former President and Mrs Bill Clinton, Former President and Mrs Barack Obama, George Soros and CNN. I read about the pope bomb which was sent to Mr Soros early this morning. Evidently, the bombs sent to the former presidents and CNN were found later. From what I’ve seen on the news, there is strong evidence that the bombs were sent by the same people.

Is Your Family Physician the New Doctor Death?

Last updated on: October 24, 2018 at 10:35 am By Rebecca Hamilton

Do you really want to go to a doctor who can kill you and get away with it? Think, just for a teeny-tiny moment, what that means, or at least what it has come to mean in jurisdictions where euthanasia has been legalized for a few decades. What has happened is what always happens. People kept on pushing. If euthanasia with informed consent and only for the terminally ill was a good thing, then euthanasia of the merely sick, or maybe just... Read more
