DE BLASIO AND CUOMO GET CREAMED IN COURT

By |2020-08-03T19:56:32-04:00July 31st, 2020|Categories: Catalyst, Features|Tags: |

Protesters can take to the streets, some violently, and that is okay by Mayor Bill de Blasio and Gov. Andrew Cuomo—the mob does not have to abide by social distancing rules—but religious New Yorkers cannot congregate in their houses of worship lest they imperil the public health. Well, the jig is up. U.S. District Court Judge [...]

At the end of May, we learned of a planned ban on the Eucharist in a Maryland county. We wasted no time contacting our email list of subscribers asking for them to get involved. They sure did, and with great effect. Consider that the Volstead Act, which enforced the 18th Amendment ban on alcohol, allowed for [...]

FEDS NEED TO INVESTIGATE CUOMO

New York Rep. Elise Stefanik has called for an independent federal investigation of Gov. Andrew Cuomo's response to the way he handled the coronavirus pandemic in New York's nursing homes. We second that. Cuomo is responsible for the nursing home scandal: nearly 6,000 men and women have died in New York State nursing homes as a [...]

HBO KEEPS Bill MAHER

The corporate boys are so anxious to prove that they are not racists that they are flexing their moralistic muscles beyond recognition. WarnerMedia, which is owned by AT&T, has said that it will pull "Gone With the Wind" from its HBO Max package. It objects to the film's "racist depictions." It is too bad HBO is [...]

WHITE LIBERALS NEED TO PONY UP

By |2020-08-03T19:56:33-04:00July 31st, 2020|Categories: Catalyst, Features|Tags: |

It is fascinating to see how white liberals are responding to the protests and the quest for racial equality. They are long on sermons but short on remedies, though that doesn’t mean they have nothing to say. They do. It's just that their ideas are either tired or amount to nothing more than grandstanding. Their intellectual [...]

CRITICS OBJECT TO RELIGIOUS LIBERTY GAINS

By |2020-08-03T19:56:33-04:00July 31st, 2020|Categories: Catalyst, Features|Tags: |

Three law professors, one from Cornell and two from the University of Virginia, wrote an article in the June 8 edition of the New York Times decrying the "quiet demise of the already ailing separation of church and state." This is a false alarm. The proximate cause of their worry is the distribution of federal funds [...]

CONGRESS MUST ACT ON RELIGIOUS INSTITUTIONS

In response to the coronavirus pandemic, houses of worship have been closed down in most states for months, and in some cases they still are. Even those that are open are under strict restrictions that limit the number of people who can attend services. With few exceptions, the clergy of all religions have cooperated with the [...]
