Thinking for oneself is exalted in the 21st century as it should be. Humans are made in the image and likeness of God and therefore should be thinking individuals. Unfortunately, this freedom of thought is often separated from an objective standard of truth. Truth is not created in the human mind but received in the mind as a gift from Truth, which…

To believe in God is the thinking person's position. Unfortunately, believers are not aware of what is actually meant behind the word "God".

Every human person is made for having direct access to the truth. Even before we learn to talk, we intuit reality, and this intuition never leaves us. Formal education is supposed to help our discursive reasoning that we might be able to articulate, in various means, what we "see" or intuit. Education in the 21st century must go beyond merely handi…

Freedom has been so misunderstood. A democracy divorced from absolute moral values is a short route to anarchy and chaos.

Do we understand it though? Watch this episode!…

Before the beginning of time, God had the Church in mind as the means through which He would reconcile humanity back to Himself. The Church is the seed of the Kingdom on earth.

One of the most misunderstood teachings of the Church is about the Pope. About eight years ago, I can remember working as an accountant in my cubicle and being challenged by a co-worker.

The Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception is a truth revealed by God and defined by His Mystical Body, the Church.

Have you ever been asked the question, “Are you born again?” Being born again is essential to being a Christian, but the phrase must be properly understood.

Jesus Christ is the most influential and dominant person in world history. People often forget that Jesus was also a very controversial figure.

As Christians, we sometimes focus all of our attention on the New Testament given that Christ is explicitly revealed there. This one-sided approach to the Sacred Scripture does us a great disservice.

Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI spoke of this current Western culture as "dictatorship of relativism".
