We are facing most troubled
and confusing times, both for the Church and for the world. There
are many issues, technological, moral, cultural, etc... that give rise
to controversies and dilemmas. We present this section in the hopes
of giving others moral guidance and support on various important matters,
many of which keenly pertain to our modern age.

CLEAR IDEAS on the POPE'S INFALLIBLE MAGISTERIUM
- What worries Catholics most in the current crisis in the Church is precisely the
"problem of the pope." This excellent article examines the two extremes: "The pope
is always infallible and so we always owe him blind obedience" and "The pope is infallible
only in his Extraordinary Magisterium,
so we can sweep away 2000 years of ordinary papal Magisterium."

Talk on education and television by Dominican Sisters
- The Dominican Sisters stress the importance of a good education and correcting our children's vices then give numerous reasons for getting rid of that "Satan's Box", the television. The talk is addressed to parents, but applies to
