Science v. Religion

Dear Editor: Two letters (Oct. 3) are wrongheaded. Mildred Burke supports her view of “infallible science” sanctioning homosexuality by citing science v. religion narratives that never really occurred historically except in mythologized forms encouraged by popular anti-religious hatred.

Living the Gospel Message

Dear Editor: I would like to thank Rita M. Murphy for those most kind words (Readers’ Forum, Sept. 26) to my letter to The Tablet (Sept. 9) concerning my experiences with homelessness. It is most heartwarming to hear from people like yourself with what you have done to help the homeless. I hope and pray […]

Best of Papal Scenes

Dear Editor: On the papal visit, for me one of the best parts was on his arrival in Washington, D.C., on the way to the White House, he stopped to greet children putting him 15 minutes behind schedule. One security man reminded the pope, tapping his watch to emphasize it. The pope just gestured with […]

The mention of Brother Claude who moved from St. Michael’s on to Xaverian struck a fond note since I too […]

Where’s the Outrage on PP

Why is there not more of an outcry from the pulpit regarding the wicked deeds of Planned Parenthood?

Is Kim Davis a Hero?

I believe that Mrs. Davis is a sincere person who has had some sort of personal encounter with Christ…
Where I fault Mrs. Davis.. is in her failure to act positively..

Influence of the Brothers

It was my privilege to have Xaverian Brothers at the former St. Michael’s Diocesan H.S. on 43rd Street and Fourth Ave., and Franciscan Brothers at the old St. Francis College on Butler Street.

Fix the Church of Jesus

“Veni, Vidi, Vici.” (He came, He saw, He conquered). It would seem from the eye of this sinner, that Pope Francis did just this and much more.
