Nicaraguan Jesuit, ex-Sadinista gets last chance at exercising priestly ministry
t is inherently unjust to point to any one “wild” market, any single “greedy” industry captain and conclude that the entire system essentially immoral, wrong and sinful. This is what is called, idiomatically speaking, “throwing the baby out with bath water.” Read More… In a recent move that garnered little public attention amidst the tense media coverage enveloping this week’s Vatican summit on clerical sexual abuse and the protection of minors, Pope Francis restored priestly faculties to a Nicaraguan Jesuit...
Why the minimum wage shouldn’t be a family wage
Nostalgia is a powerful drug, and one that seems to a have particular potent effect on politicians. Consider, for example, a recent tweet by Massachusetts’s senator and Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren. Last Saturday she said: Back when I was a kid, a minimum-wage job could support a family of three. Today, a full-time minimum-wage job in America won’t keep a mama and a baby out of poverty. Our movement is about making real, fundamental change to fix this. Many...
Pope Francis pardons Marxist priest in Nicaragua: Has the Sandinista priest changed his stripes?
Having visited Nicaragua just prior to and immediately following the elections which initially ousted the Sandinistas from power in 1990, I was struck by the news this week from Rome. Evidently sometime in the last few weeks, when exactly remains unclear, Pope Francis lifted the canonical penalties imposed by Pope St. John Paul II on Father Ernesto Cardenal in 1984. Father Cardenal was a colorful character who had been suspended from his ministry for holding the cabinet position of Minister...
West Virginia’s teachers’ union wins battle to prevent educational choice
This week, roughly 19,000 West Virginia teachers went on strike, closing down every public school in the state in a united resistance against educational choice. Now, after only two days, the strike is over, with the legislation in question dead on arrival in the state House. It marks a defeat against student opportunity and a victory for union-induced conformity and the dismal status quo of public education in West Virginia—a state that consistently sits at the bottom of nation-wide education...
Western Civilization: force for good or source of evil?
No one event prompted me to write about this topic—it is a general, and certainly growing, impression. But a glance at various happenings in recent years gives some indication of what I want ment on. In 2016, for instance, Yale students called on the university to “decolonize” a reading list of canonical poets—people such as Shakespeare, Milton, Wordsworth, and so on—saying the course “actively harms students” and creates a “hostile” culture. That same year, Stanford students overwhelmingly voted down a...
The ‘evil’ unleashed by Abp. Justin Welby
The Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, has denounced an increasingly prevalent working relationship as “evil.” However, a new report shows the condition he abjured as immoral has been exacerbated by another economic practice that he favors and advocates – that is, by the archbishop’s standards, his fiscal advice inadvertently increases “evil.” Archbishop Welby made headlines last October for a speech in which he excoriated Amazon for not paying a “real living wage” and calling zero-hour contracts“an ancient evil.” As it...
A Republic, if you can keep it
On Friday, President Donald J. Trump invoked the powers mander-in-chief and declared a state of emergency. This legal step will allow him to allocate billions of dollars for the construction of a wall on the southern border, bypassing the obstruction of Democrats — and many Republicans — in Congress. Immediately, a discussion on the legality of the decision took over the public debate. Many self-identified conservatives soon pointed to the alleged breach of constitutional order related to this decision and...
Explainer: Supreme Court constrains civil asset forfeiture
What just happened? On Wednesday the Supreme Court ruled in the case of Timbs v. Indiana that the Excessive Fines Clause of the Eighth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution applies to state governments and that some state civil asset forfeitures violate the Clause. The implication, as legal scholar Ilya Somin explains, is that “the ruling could help curb abusive asset forfeitures, which enable law enforcement agencies to seize property that they suspect might have been used in a crime—including in...
For nature and neighbor: Economic lessons from an Icelandic goat farmer
For over 1,100 years, a unique “heritage breed” of Icelandic goats has sustained the country’s population, serving as a staple of cuisine for centuries. Yet as dietaryneeds and preferences shifted, the goat population slowly dwindled, reaching the brink of extinction at under 100 animals by the late 20th century. Although one might imagine the solution to be found in a government protection program or a widespread endangered-species campaign, one Icelander saw a different path—focusing not just on the restoration of...
A legal test for the Bladensburg Peace Cross
“The challenge … presents the possibility for hope and for worry with regard to the future of religion in American public life,” says Trey Dimsdale in this week’s Acton Commentary. In 1919 the political landscape of Europe had been drastically rearranged, the United States had emerged from relative isolation onto the world scene, and the western world was in shock at the unprecedented scale of the carnage that the Great War had left in its wake. Amid the victory celebrations...
