Yikes. An op-ed in Hungarian Conservative and a widely shared video have sparked debate after Egypt's national soccer team was shown reciting Quranic verses before its World Cup match against Argentina. The article says the verses reject Christ's divinity and the Trinity.

"What advice would you give to someone who's newly married or about to be?" A profoundly moving moment on Pints with Aquinas as Matt Fradd asks the question to Catholic philosopher Peter Kreeft, who had just lost his wife of over 60 years. Unforgettable.

“Leave the nuns alone.” Columnist Ashley McGuire is urging the political left to stop targeting Catholic religious sisters with government mandates that conflict with their faith.

DON'T MISS: How did Catholic schools get *so* expensive? For generations, working-class families could send every child to Catholic school on a single income. Today, many can't afford even one. @ErikaAhern2 investigates what changed and why there's still reason for hope.

The Little Sisters of the Poor are STILL battling in court for the right to live their vows—poor, chaste, and obedient to God—while humbly serving the elderly poor and dying in their nursing homes. They simply ask not to be forced to provide contraceptives, sterilizations, or abortion-inducing drugs. On August 13, 2025, U.S. District Judge Wendy Beetlestone (Eastern District of Pennsylvania) issued a nationwide ruling invalidating the Trump-era religious conscience exemption rule. The ruling was nationwide--vacating the rule entirely--and came without a full hearing on constitutional issues at stake despite the fact that in the 14+ years of litigation the Little Sisters have TWO Supreme Court rulings favoring their accommodation. “This is our God-given mission,” said one sister. “For nearly 200 years we have welcomed the elderly poor and dying into our homes, and with the population of seniors rapidly growing we cannot allow a government lawsuit to stop us from carrying out our mission.” The weaponization of the courts doesn’t just target Trump’s agenda—it’s repeatedly aimed at faithful Christians who keep winning in court. We must oppose this abuse of power. zeale.co/news/articles/…

Senator Lindsey Graham has passed away at 71 after a 'brief and sudden illness,' according to his office. Pray for the repose of his soul.

Bishop Robert Barron has repeatedly warned about the rise of so-called "democratic socialism" in the United States. New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has emerged as one of the country's most prominent democratic socialists and has helped propel other Democratic Socialists to electoral victories in New York. Similar candidates have also won primaries in Colorado, Washington, D.C., and elsewhere, signaling a broader shift on the political left. Responding to Mamdani's remarks about "the warmth of collectivism," Bishop Barron issued a stark warning: "Collectivism in its various forms is responsible for the deaths of at least one hundred million people in the last century. ... For God's sake, spare me the 'warmth of collectivism.'" The bishop's concern is rooted in history. Karl Marx argued that religion had to be abolished for his revolutionary vision to succeed: "The abolition of religion as the illusory happiness of the people is the demand for their real happiness." Communist regimes inspired by Marxist ideology have persecuted religious believers across the world, and historical estimates attribute more than 100 million deaths to communist governments during the twentieth century. Bishop Barron argues that collectivist ideologies ultimately undermine the dignity of the human person by subordinating the individual to the state or the collective, replacing God as society's highest authority. The Church offers a different vision, one rooted in the dignity of every human person, objective moral truth, and the freedom that comes from God, not the state. As Bishop Barron put it: "What we have to fight for is a democratic civilization predicated upon objective moral value and finally upon God who presides over the very freedom that we exercise. Fight for that culture in entertainment and in politics and in communication and in every aspect of life. That is a cultural war worth fighting." This competing vision of God, man, and human flourishing needs to be challenged before it takes deeper root. CatholicVote is ready for that battle, especially at the ballot box.
