Lopez: Happy Blessed Sheen Day! (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Blessed Sheen Day didn’t grab the headlines like the incoming nor’easter or Xi Jinping’s White House visit, but it marks something important. On Sept. 24, Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen was raised to the status of “Blessed” in the Catholic Church, advancing him on the possibility of eventually being a canonized saint. Sheen taught philosophy at my alma mater, the Catholic University of America, for 23 years published 34 books and brought an unapologetically Catholic worldview to newspaper op-ed page

Read excerpt
One weekday morning about a decade ago, I was at St. Patrick’s Cathedral on Fifth Avenue in New York City, waiting in line to go to confession. My pre-sacrament reverie was broken by the sight of a seemingly heavily armed man.

“In world of Jolenes, be a Dolly” is a phrase you can buy on a plaque for your wall, a sticker for your water bottle or a mini-sandwich board sign I bought at a Cracker Barrel in Nashville, Tennessee, last fall. We’re a nation mourning the death of Dolly Parton. She was such a hopeful, joyful presence in American culture. I’m determined to wear a little more pink and rhinestones for at least the next month, possibly longer, just as an act of gratitude and invitation to strike up conversations ab
The real truth about abortion (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“Electric” — not a word you’d normally associate with state government affairs. But such was the atmosphere for a gubernatorial bill signing in Montclair, New Jersey, on an otherwise gloomy August Thursday. Gov. Mikie Sherrill wore a bright orange blouse that seemed to reflect the celebratory mood. “We won’t be intimidated,” she said. “We won’t back down. And we will get it done.” The backdrop for the event was a Planned Parenthood clinic. Sherrill recalled being at the same clinic the day Donal
