If You're Struggling With Dark Times Then Cheer Up I was watching Dale Ahlquist, President of The American Chesterton Society, last night when something occurred to me. He was talking about the fact that preumption, not despair, is the opposite of hope. The idea is that we can only have hope when things seem bleak. And if we're not worried about something, we're living in bliss, not hopefulness. This bliss is something that dominates most of our society today. Americans have made it their business to make everything as safe as possible. We've also invented backup plans for when something does go wrong (insurance). We shell out billions of dollars to create a society protected against crime and terrorism. We make health more important than healing. And all of this has created a society without hope. |

The Side of Saint Francis You’ve Never Seen BeforeThe Soldier – The Prisoner – The Beggar – The Saint Saint Francis of Assisi led one of the most interesting lives of all the saints throughout Catholic history.

As reported by the Catholic News Agency, the U.S. Catholic Bishops have recently launched a website designed to help in a health marriage 'for people of all faiths'. This, in its core, is a good idea I guess; but why do the Catholic Bishops feel they should address peoples of all faiths when it comes to marriage advice? The advice given to a Catholic should be given to everyone, but generally only Catholics would understand. General advice that could be followed by people of other faith or no faith at all will be incomplete and could be down right wrong for Catholics.
