By Patricia Miller

…s a conciliator who has emphasized dialog and shied away from the types of high-profile confrontations that have come to define the Catholic Church in recent years. “I’ve always believed in collaboration and consultation, but I guess I’m listening more intently to the voices of people who might not have had the kind of hearing that they should have—people of diverse backgrounds, people with differing opinion,” he told the New York Times before his…

By Mary E. Hunt

…out a couple she had met recently who came across the border with their two-year-old child. They endured four hot days and four cold nights before being detained and sent back home.

…on among our student peers. LDS student families also take advantage of low-income housing, WIC vouchers, and other assistance. Restrictions on student employment, caps on student loans, and the high costs of insurance premiums and maternity deductibles don’t leave many other choices. These students aren’t relying on government aid because they are irresponsible or careless. Young Mormon couples who have children are simply trying to live their fa…

Sacrifice, Suffering, and Rick Santorum

By Ivan Strenski

…o uncomprehendingly—when not even capable of considering the choice? While high-minded theological rationales enrich Rick Santorum’s life story, what have Catholic theologians to say about how Isabella’s life story might read? Is her “character” being built up by the pain she suffers? Does she see “blessings” in the diseases that wrack her body? Is she “uplifted” by some commitment to “life” one can scarcely imagine her capable of making? So, I mu…

By Kaya Oakes

…om my perspective as a scholar. I felt as though I were witnessing a brand new religion coming into its own, becoming a global religion, creating from scratch its own rituals, its own mass. The Santa Muerte mass in that episode is remarkable. Anyone familiar with the Catholic mass will recognize some of the words that they’re using, but the words here are just a little bit different. And they are geared toward the concerns that the kind of people…

Maureen Dowd’s Reductio Ad Islam

By Haroon Moghul

…, for that is where women are oppressed and learn helplessness. That makes complete sense! Consider: Huma’s one-time boss, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, stuck by a husband who did one worse, so far as these things can be weighed and inveighed against. He cheated on his wife in his office, which happened to be our office, meaning the Oval Office. Still Clinton stuck by her husband for the very same reason, because she too was raised in…
