A Note to Our Readers. Unity in the News. 5 Years a Catholic. Feb 6th, 2015 By Jeremy Tate. At one point the conversation turned towards how to counsel a couple that disagreed on having children. At this point I must have let my guard down and someone suggested I might as well become a Roman Catholic. I responded by acknowledging that I had indeed converted to Catholicism the previous winter. St Andrew by the Bay Parish. Experientially, Catholicism has felt like a descent. Leave a comment ». Welcome Home...

Coalition for Clarity: March 2013
http://coalitionforclarity.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 21, 2013. Monstrous inhumanity at Gitmo. You've probably seen these kinds. Of posts popping up. In the Catholic blogosphere already. Today, but I wanted to take part in this effort to raise awareness. About what's going on at the Guantanamo prison. Did you know that there's been a hunger strike going on among prisoners held at Guantanamo for six weeks now? And that half of them have been cleared to be released or transferred, but they're still being held? More than 50 lawyers representing...

This article is intended to be a resource showing the support for the doctrine of Transubstantiation. In the Church fathers, and not a robust defense of the doctrine as defined by the Council of Trent. We will summarize the significance of each type of statement and add some light commentary where expedient. The appendix will contain a few brief responses to anticipated objections as...

Coalition for Clarity: I am ashamed of my country today
http://coalitionforclarity.blogspot.com/2015/05/i-am-ashamed-of-my-country-today.html
Friday, May 15, 2015. I am ashamed of my country today. We don’t need to execute Dzhokhar Tsarnaev. He poses no continuing threat to our public safety. Protecting the common good does not require us to kill him. I am convinced, as are many others, that the principal actor in the Boston Marathon bombing was his brother Tamerlan- and Tamerlan is already dead. Cross-posted at And Sometimes Tea.).

Coalition for Clarity: The toll of endless war
http://coalitionforclarity.blogspot.com/2013/05/the-toll-of-endless-war.html
Wednesday, May 29, 2013. The toll of endless war. An Army staff sergeant will plead guilty to murder to avoid the death penalty following an Afghanistan war atrocity. Bales, an Ohio native and father of two from Lake Tapps, Wash., slipped away from his remote southern Afghanistan outpost at Camp Belambay early on March 11, 2012, and attacked mud-walled compounds in two slumbering villages nearby. Bales was serving his fourth tour in a combat zone, and the allegations against him raised questions about th...

New Zealand Catholics being frank about their Roman Catholic faith. October 7, 2010. The influence of secular thought and ideas inside the Church; in her theology, liturgy, and apostolates, interests me greatly. There are certain problematic tendencies which are to be found in the Church these days:. In the form of a certain type of liberation theology, leading to a superficial social activism, and a reduction of measuring the fruitfulness of the Gospel in any given place by material well-being. For exam...

Coalition for Clarity: January 2013
http://coalitionforclarity.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 15, 2013. I share this today as a small reminder that Americans aren't the only ones capable of treating prisoners inhumanely. My broken Egyptian Arabic was probably not to blame for the troubled communication, because another inmate offered logical responses to the same routine questions. But with Ibrahim, they only elicited a bewildered gaze. Albeit for only two days. Ibrahim was clearly scared. His left hand never stopped shaking. Red spots on his forehead and nose covered...When I sh...

Coalition for Clarity: Just war, Syria, and Captain America syndrome
http://coalitionforclarity.blogspot.com/2013/09/just-war-syria-and-captain-america.html
Monday, September 9, 2013. Just war, Syria, and Captain America syndrome. With the possibility of strikes against Syria by our own government in mind, let's take a look at what the Church actually teaches about war (and I thank the reader who suggested this). Here, first, is the Catechism of the Catholic Church. All citizens and all governments are obliged to work for the avoidance of war. The strict conditions for legitimate defense by military force. There must be serious prospects of success;. The use...
