    The Left's Hollow Complaints About Hobby Lobby

    Research | Articles | by Peter Berkowitz
    Friday, July 11, 2014

    Progressives are fond of saying that they stand for empathy and compromise, and are quick to blame conservatives for polarizing our politics.

    A CRISIS OF FAITH: The Crisis in the Catholic Church

    Research | Videos
    Thursday, June 27, 2002

    The year will be remembered as a difficult one for the Catholic Church in America. Sex abuse scandals and criticism of the church's response to those scandals dominated the headlines for months. Sexual abuse is not the only subject creating controversy within Catholic circles. Other divisive matters include the role of women within the church, gay priests, and the relation of American bishops to the Vatican. Is the Catholic Church in danger of losing its constituency in America? Are substantial reforms in the structure and teachings of the Catholic Church necessary? Or are reforms what got the church in trouble in the first place?

    What are the root causes of terrorism and how should we respond to them? If the discontent and hatred that breed terrorism spring from economic, political, and cultural grievances, should we address those grievances? Or does acknowledgment of these types of causes of terrorism lend a dangerous legitimacy to terrorists themselves?
