Rev. Sirico on ‘The Blaze’ to Discuss Pope Francis
The Blaze TV will be featuring the Rev. Robert Sirico and Rabbi Daniel Lapin on Wednesday, March 20. The hour-long program will focus on the election of Pope Francis, formerly Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio of Argentina. Pope Francis has already made several statements regarding the Church’s relationship with the Jewish people, and the Chief Rabbi of Rome, Riccardo di Segni, plans to attend the papal inauguration. Carol Glatz, of The CatholicHerald UK, writes: Abraham Foxman, national director of the Anti-Defamation...
Does International Child Sponsorship Work?
In 1936, near the end of the Great Depression, Children International launched one of the earliest child sponsorship charities. Today, child sponsorship is one of the most significant forms of foreign aid. It’s estimated that there are over 8 million internationally sponsored children in the world. With the average monthly sponsorship level set at about $30 (not including other gifts sent to sponsored children), the flow of resources from wealthy countries to poor countries from international child sponsorships is about...
Audio: Kishore Jayabalan on Pope Francis’ Installation
Kishore Jayabalan, Director of Instituto Acton in Rome, joined host Michael Patrick Shiels on Michigan’s Big Show to discuss the mood in Rome on the day of Pope Francis’ Installation Mass. The theme of the day, according to Jayabalan, was one of “quiet, faithful, obedient service.” The Vatican estimates that between 150,000 and 200,000 people turned out for the event. Listen to the full interview here: ...
Sen. Warren: Why Isn’t the Minimum Wage $22 an Hour?
In the United States we have approximately 314 million citizens. In the United States Senate, the upper house of our country’s bicameral legislature, there are exactly 100 senators. That means only 1 senator is selected for every 3.14 million people in the nation. Because two e from each state and the population is spread unevenly, the ratio of citizens to senators isn’t exact. Still, you’d think out of a pool of millions the chances are high that people selected for...
Video: A Humble Pope
Last week, Acton president and co-founder, Rev. Robert Sirico, and operations manager of Istituto Acton, Michael Severance, were featured on Reuters TV discussing Pope Francis’ humility and frugality. ...
What We Can Expect from Pope Francis
Michael Severance, operations manager of the Istituto Acton in Rome, recently wrote an article for the World Catholic Report explaining why Pope Francis was a historic choice and examining what we can expect from his papacy. He points out that “this past week proved a historic week of firsts:” We now have the first Jesuit pope. And the first pope named Francis. He is the first non-European pope since Gregory III, an eighth-century Syrian. And we now have the very...
Can Pope Francis Deal With Toxic Contamination?
The bureaucracy of the Roman Curia is nothing new. When Pope John XXIII was asked how many people worked at the Vatican, he replied, “About half.” A great chuckle, but an unfortunate truth. The National Post’s Scott Barber shares the mess that Pope Francis is going to have to deal with: A bination of corruption, petence and tradition could stifle Pope Francis’ ability to rid the Catholic Church of scandal, Vatican analysts say. “This whole mess needs to be excavated...
A Meat Grinder Which Destroys Lives: Pope Francis on Slavery
Pope Francis has already made it clear that he has a heart and mind for the poor. We’ve seen images of him washing the feet of AIDS patients, stopping traffic to bless a severely handicapped man in St. Peter’s Square, and reminding us from the first moments of his papacy to remember the poor. Beyond that, there is a certain population of the poor that Francis wants us to remember: those caught in human trafficking and slavery. The White House...
Michael Miller: Pope Francis Says Human Person is at Center of Economy
In today’s American Spectator, Acton’s Michael Matheson Miller focuses on Pope Francis’ “street smarts“: a man who knows poverty and economics at the most important and basic level. It’s a counter-intuitive tale of one of Latin America’s most significant bishops living in modest lodgings, cooking his own meals, and riding the crowded public transportation system in Buenos Aires. Even the small but telling gesture of paying his own hotel bill after the Vatican conclave drew media attention. As a priest...
The Hart of the Matter on Trade With China
Today at Ethika Politika, I critique David Bentley Hart’s recent (non-)response to the critics of his attack on natural law in public discourse last month, appearing in the most recent issue of First Things. My article, “Hart’s (Non-)Response to His Critics: Trying to Have It Both Ways?” is a response to Hart’s recent article,“Si Fueris Romae.” While Hart’s most recent article may seem unrelated, it starts to sound remarkably similar to his article on natural law from last month about...
