NY Times 'Fact Checker' Says It's 'False' That FBI Targeted Catholics
The New York Times issued a sad “Fact Check” against claims of anti-Catholic persecution made by Donald Trump, mounting a reaction in the FBI’s defense that would have been seen as pathetic from a journalistic outlet in the pre-Trump era: “Biden’s Christian ‘Persecution’? We Assess Trump’s Recent Claims.” To make Trump a liar, Fichera went to frankly embarrassing lengths to tell the…
Saint Mary's College Reverses Decision on Transgender Admissions
Saint Mary’s College in Notre Dame, Indiana, has reversed a decision to admit transgender women to the all-girls school amid backlash. The decision had been previously communicated by school president Katie Conboy, with a quote from Pope Francis about his love for the LGBTQ+ community. The about-face follows objections to the policy, primarily from Bishop Kevin C. Rhoades, as to the potential…
'Christian' Schools That Support Abortion Rose By 10% Post-Roe
The Demetree Institute for Pro-Life Advancement discovered that 76 out of 767 Christian-affiliated colleges in the U.S. have relationships with Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry. Since Roe v. Wade was overturned, the number of Christian schools supporting abortion increased by approximately 10%. A grading system was used to rate these institutions based on their support for life;…
PBS: Pope Francis Has ‘Gained Adoration’ For His LGBTQ+ Inclusion
Slot him into the media’s “Strange New Respect for Religion” category: Pope Francis, beloved by liberals for his “progressive” tack toward the LGBTQ movement -- and hostility toward conservative Catholics. PBS Weekend was the latest to genuflect toward the “social reform” minded (i.e. liberal-pleasing) pontiff on Saturday.
New Bill Defends Christian Foster Homes Who Are Banned From Fostering
Rep. Jim Banks introduced the SAFE Home Act to counter new HHS guidelines that limit Christians from fostering by disallowing practices contrary to a child's self-identified LGBTQI+ status. The bill aims to prevent discrimination against prospective foster parents with traditional views on gender and sexuality. Banks criticizes the HHS preference for aligning foster placements with LGBTQI+…
Column: The FBI's Outrageous Probe of 'Radical Catholics'
After 9/11, leftist journalists passionately exposed the New York City Police Department doing surveillance of mosques to try and prevent violent Muslim extremism. By contrast, they largely yawned when it was leaked in February that the FBI’s office in Richmond, Virginia discussed surveilling local Catholic churches to root out potential violent extremism from the “radical Catholics.”
Catholic All-Girls College Will Admit Transgender Girls For Fall 2024
Saint Mary's College, a historically all-girls institution, will begin admitting transgender women, stirring controversy. School president Katie Conboy asserted the decision aligns with Catholic values and acceptance of LGBTQ+ individuals. Critics, including Riley Gaines, argue this undermines women's spaces and could pose safety concerns, challenging the Catholic faith's traditional gender…
NPR Host Gushes Over Nasty Feminist Website Jezebel After It Ends
The nasty feminist blog named Jezebel was shut down by its owner G/O Media last week, after a long run of outrages. But NPR All Things Considered anchor Juana Summers interviewed its founder Anna Holmes and gushed over how it was essential reading and "really relevant." All Things Considered never considered a conservative rebuttal. Call it All Conservative Views Ignored…
Whoopi: Pope Francis Is a ‘Progressive’ Because ‘He’s a Human Being’
Moderator Whoopi Goldberg was back on ABC’s The View on Monday after her visit with Pope Francis last week. She bragged about taking important lessons away from their conversations and that he’s “a pope for all people.” But according to her, not all people were human and it all came down to politics and only progressives like her and Francis were human beings.
National Cathedral Swaps Stained Glass Windows For BLM Images
The Washington National Cathedral in Washington D.C. replaced its once beautiful stained glass windows this week. Now the windows are an honor to Black Lives Matter protestors.
Whipped Cream Diapers, Drag Queen Hostages & Genital Shaped Pastries
On this week's Woke of the Weak we saw church services that blessed and praised drag queens, pastry treats shaped like genitals, whipped cream filled diapers, “family friendly” drag shows and a teenager’s gender reveal.
PBS Silliness: Biden's Catholicism 'Central to How He Views the World'
The Tuesday edition of the taxpayer-supported PBS NewsHour featured liberal political writer Franklin Foer talking about his new biography of President Biden. But don’t expect Foer’s book, The Last President, to be a harsh expose like the dozens of books written about former President Trump. Foer just told NBC’s Meet the Press anchor Chuck Todd that Biden "has been…
PBS Alarm Over Indoctrination, LGBTQ Rights in Catholic Charter School
Overreact much? The PBS News Weekend show set off klaxon alarms Sunday evening about the pseudo-constitutional concept of "separation of church and state," based on the establishment of an online Catholic charter school in Oklahoma, the first publicly funded religious charter school in the nation. Host John Yang introduced his segment under a graphic that read “Church and State.”
NY Times Finds ‘Mission From God’ It Can Get Behind: Suing ‘Big Oil’
More sudden respect for religion in the New York Times, at least the left-wing variety, on Friday’s front page, where the true-believing environmental reporter David Gelles’ profile of lawyer-activist Missy Sims appeared: “She’s on a Mission From God:…
