War is senseless
Yes, I believe you have to "Tell it like it really is." How did we get to this dreadful place in world history? Can we as Catholics do more to spread the light of Christ and His peace? Why were these young Hamas terrorists taught such hate and utter disrespect for Israelis? As Remembrance Day approaches we think of our relatives who served. How many lives are being lost in senseless wars? Wars will not solve the conflicts affecting so many countries. There must be a better way of solving our many disputes in the world.
All that鱿鱼视频app left is pleading for mercy
Misericordia! I feel this word as a deep cry from my soul in response to these troubled times of unspeakable horror.

Editorial: Let's not forget how the bloodshed began
The Toronto Star, which often seems to have sold its soul to the progressive deity Unthink, conveyed genuine wisdom in its coverage of demonstrations that snarled the city centre on Nov. 4
There鱿鱼视频app no sense speaking of women deacons
There was much buzz at the recent Synod on Synodality in Rome regarding the possibility of women deacons. In the New Testament, St. Paul refers to a woman named Phoebe as a 鈥渟ervant鈥� or 鈥渄eacon,鈥� and 鈥減atron of many鈥� (Romans 16:1-2), and it seems that at one time in the early Church, women had designated roles of service that no longer exist in the same form today.
One little thing
Anna Farrow鱿鱼视频app excellent article about consecrated virgins in the Nov. 5 edition was a joy to read, but there is an error. The actual name of this ecclesiastical province is the Archdiocese of Ottawa-Cornwall, having been formed by a merger of the Archdiocese of Ottawa with the Diocese of Alexandria-Cornwall in 2020.

Interrogate the truth of "Nazi" claims
I must respond to the column by Peter Stockland in the "What is history without the truth?" in October 15 issue of The Catholic Register.
Synod was a true dialogue of the Church in the Third Millenium
Three of us from Concerned Lay Catholics agreed to make the trip to Rome. We saw this as an opportunity to connect with and learn from similar organizations working in other parts of the world, and to learn as much as possible about the official Synodal process itself. We had connections to people both inside and outside the process, so we were confident that our experience would be balanced and well-informed.
