The moral test: Conserving creation and the 2026 election | Column
I found great joy recently in the announcement from the Catholic Church that environmental destruction is now considered a sin against creation and the Creator.

Ladies, what to wear to the gym to please men | Column

Ghosts? Fun! Zombies? Bring them on! Haunted houses? We’ll take two tickets. But this Halloween, there is something genuinely frightening we should talk about. Every day, animals are transported into slaughterhouses most of us will never see. What happens inside is kept far away from grocery stores, restaurant menus and cheerful food packaging.
