The Guerrilla Warfare of Journaling
OPINION – I began a daily journal on March 15, 2020, when everything solid turned liquid. I had just written a letter to Bishop Burns of Dallas, begging him, for pity’s sake, not to close the churches like Boston and Newark had done. I naïvely hoped such...![Wildcat: Flannery for Rookies](https://corac.co/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/post927-1080x628.jpg)
Wildcat: Flannery for Rookies
OPINION – I appreciate that cigar culture has finer points, but the smell of cigars still makes me queasy. Likewise, Flannery O’Connor. She is an acquired taste, and this review of Wildcat, the new biodrama of O’Connor, is written from the perspective of one who...![Open Letter to Dallas Jenkins](https://corac.co/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/post916-1080x628.jpg)
Open Letter to Dallas Jenkins
OPINION – Dear Chosen creative team, for whom I have been praying since I first fell in love with Jesus softly calling, “Mary” in the first episode: The Lord has granted you a rare opportunity, a massive one. Views of The Chosen, on the app alone, have exceeded...![Portent of the Eclipse](https://corac.co/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/post906-1080x675.jpg)
Portent of the Eclipse
OPINION – On Monday, Tyler prepared for a whale of a day: the observed Solemnity of the Annunciation, the arrival of the relic of St. Jude to our cathedral, and the solar eclipse. The confluence of events made us all feel that we were players in something big,...![Christian Nationalists: In the Crosshairs](https://corac.co/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/post895-1080x628.jpg)
Christian Nationalists: In the Crosshairs
OPINION – Why another article about Christian nationalism? I assert that there is a program afoot targeting Catholics under the tag “Christian nationalists,” and it can be defeated if we know how it works. Let’s start with a couple of jokes. Last month saw the...![Mother Cabrini’s Empire of Hope: The Movie](https://corac.co/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/post881-1080x628.jpg)
Mother Cabrini’s Empire of Hope: The Movie
We hardly know how to measure strong women anymore; modern feminism has so bent the ruler. Feminism, once a virtuous philosophy worthy of St. Edith Stein and St. John Paul II, has become a cesspool that Catholics, women and men, instinctively avoid. So, is the tale of...![Bishop Strickland Changes the Game](https://corac.co/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/post872-1080x628.jpg)
Bishop Strickland Changes the Game
At the kitchen table Friday night, dinner dishes still in the sink, the house in darkness because the sun set while I wasn’t paying attention, I watched history unfold on the screen of my computer. Bishop Joseph Strickland addressed the crowd at the CPAC Ronald Reagan...![Be a Pell](https://corac.co/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/post847-1080x628.jpg)
Be a Pell
The signature of our time is the betrayal of the small by the powerful. Bureau thugs with mammoth government backing surveil Catholic families; protestors fester in prison for years without a trial; bishops are stripped from their flock without canonical...![Choosing Between New and Old](https://corac.co/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/post829-1080x628.jpg)
