How to help a grieving friend

October 9, 2024
By Lorene Hanley Duquin
OSV News
Filed Under: Commentary

There is no magic formula for dealing with a grieving person. The best way to reach out to someone will depend on your relationship with that person and where he or she is in the grieving process.

Question Corner: What are ‘non-sacramental’ marriages?

October 9, 2024
By Jenna Marie Cooper
OSV News
Filed Under: Commentary, Question Corner

A valid marriage is essentially a marriage where the wedding “worked,” and produced a true bond. In contrast, an attempted marriage where one of these necessary elements was absent would be considered an “invalid” or “null” marriage.

The battles we fight

October 7, 2024
By Jaymie Stuart Wolfe
OSV News
Filed Under: Commentary

It’s wise to acknowledge that not every fight can be won; that we may not have the resources to sustain a war on many fronts; that victory sometimes costs us more than we can afford

Analysis: Trump’s proposed mandate aims to fund IVF’s large-scale destruction of human embryos

October 5, 2024
By Kimberly Heatherington
OSV News
Filed Under: 2024 Election, Commentary, Respect Life

IVF treatments — which fertilize an egg outside the body in a laboratory dish — are opposed by the Catholic Church because they frequently involve the destruction of human embryos, in addition to other ethical and moral issues.

‘There Are Two’: Pope Gelasius and Jefferson’s ‘Wall of Separation’

October 5, 2024
By Kenneth Craycraft
OSV News
Filed Under: Commentary

We must reject the “wall of separation” as the formula for religious repression that it is.

A moderately important election

October 5, 2024
By Scott P. Richert
OSV News
Filed Under: 2024 Election, Commentary

To argue that we must compromise the church’s moral and social teaching so that we may cast a vote for “the lesser of two evils” is to declare implicitly (and sometimes explicitly) that Christianity is of only moderate importance compared with the electoral politics of the day.

‘Rosary priest’ Father Peyton: ‘The family that prays together stays together’

October 4, 2024
By Gerald Korson
OSV News
Filed Under: Commentary

Throughout the latter half of the 20th century, Father Peyton was perhaps the best-known “media priest” this side of Archbishop Fulton Sheen

Human dignity and the digital explosion

October 4, 2024
By Sister Hosea Rupprecht
OSV News
Filed Under: Commentary

What is a person of faith to do before the enormity of AI and all the other digital technologies we have in our hands? Trust in God and make sure to keep the human person at the center for all our digital interactions.

Sunken treasure

October 3, 2024
By Archbishop William E. Lori
Catholic Review
Filed Under: Charity in Truth, Commentary

And just as the divers who found the San Jose did not work alone, so too those who are retrieving the faith do not work alone.

A Catholic understanding of death and dying

October 3, 2024
By Peter J. Colosi
OSV News
Filed Under: Commentary, Respect Life

The “pro-choice” and pro-life sides are in agreement that physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia is death by deliberate killing. The disagreement between them is whether that should be legal or not.

October 3, 2024
By Effie Caldarola
OSV News
Filed Under: Commentary, Environment

As we look forward to St. Francis of Assisi’s feast day on Oct. 4, may we pray to St. Francis for the freedom of simplicity and a renewed commitment to our mother Earth.
