The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 to affirm the religious rights of a football coach who prayed after the game on the field. This was an important victory for religious liberty, as well as for freedom of speech. For seven years, Bremerton High School football coach Joe Kennedy prayed after a game on the 50-yard line. No [...]
In 1973, when the Supreme Court legalized abortion in its Roe v. Wade decision, Catholics were nearly alone in their opposition to it. There were some elements in the Lutheran Church, and in the Orthodox Jewish community, who opposed it, but most Protestants and Jews supported the ruling. As a major religious group, Catholics were the [...]
A Wall Street Journal/NORC (WSJ) survey found that 68% of Americans believe that Roe v. Wade, which legalized abortion, should not be overturned. Yet a Rasmussen survey of American voters found that only 5% believe abortion should be legal in all cases, with no restrictions whatsoever. How to explain the apparent contradiction? The Rasmussen survey was [...]
President Biden has condemned the firebombing of a Christian pro-life office in Madison, Wisconsin, but he did not address this crime as the work of pro-abortion arsonists. They left graffiti outside the building that said, "If abortions aren't safe then you aren't either." Biden should've been as pointed in his condemnation of this hate crime as [...]
On May 11, Senator Chuck Schumer introduced the Women's Health Protection Act, the most radical pro-abortion bill ever written. It would effectively guarantee abortion-on-demand. It would also gut First Amendment protections for religious liberty by exempting the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA). Schumer's actions epitomize the Democratic Party on abortion and religious liberty. Not too long [...]
There are only two sexes: male or female. That is what Bill Donohue said to the graduating class at Ave Maria Law School on May 14; his comments were well received. The same day, Wyoming Sen. Cynthia Lummis spoke to the graduates at the University of Wyoming and she said the same thing. She was booed [...]
Following the leak of the draft decision on Roe v. Wade, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer issued a joint statement condemning those Justices who regard Roe to be wrongly decided. They said they "have lied to the United States Senate." They cited not a single lie. The truth is that they [...]
Women exist. It's true. The controversy is over. Anatomy texts settle the issue. "Can you provide a definition for the word 'woman'?" This question was asked of Supreme Court nominee Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson during the confirmation hearings. She could not. "I'm not a biologist," she said. It is hard to believe that as recently as [...]
There is no such person as a transgender—you are either male or female—but there is such a thing as transgenderism: it is an ideology that promotes the fiction that the sexes are interchangeable. To win, proponents are bent on getting to children, prompting little kids to question whether they are satisfied being a boy or a [...]
It is not the misogynists who are working hard to destroy the rights of women these days, it is those who fancy themselves as their greatest champions. They are not only placing women in danger, they are allowing men to eviscerate their hard-won freedoms, all in the name of women's rights. Having non-doctors perform abortions places [...]
