There is little discussion about the principle of subsidiarity in Catholic circles and virtually none in the national political debate. Many Catholics do not even know that there is such a principle within the Social Doctrine of the Catholic Church. Instead they have borrowed charged rhetoric from both the political left and the political right for far too long and failed to offer their unique contribution to the common good. We need an intelligent discussion of the underlying issue – what constitutes “good” governance and Catholics can and should take the lead.

The limitations our Founding Fathers put into our Constitution are disintegrating right in front of our eyes due to the recent ruling by the Supreme Court. Is this a dream come true for President Obama?

No previous president ever promoted a giveaway more peculiar than Barack Obama’s mandate that all health care plans must offer free sterilizations to all women – but not all men – capable of breeding. This mandate is Obama’s defining act as president – just as his adamant opposition to a bill that would have defined a born baby as a “person” was his defining act as an Illinois state senator.

Stand in front of a mirror and ask the person you see this question: “When your government looks at you, do you want it to see a creature of an all powerful State, or do you want it to see a creation of an almighty and eternal Father to whom both you and the officials of that government will be accountable someday?”

It became official yesterday. As the US Supreme Court upheld the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, a.k.a. Obamacare, the Catholic church now faces its greatest, most fundamental threat in modern American history. And although many Catholics continue to support President Obama, it is probably because they do not understand the implications of the ruling and Obama’s battle royale with the Catholic church.
