Join the Conversation with Cardinal Raymond Burke! Dear Friend, ~ Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. This month’s edition of Conversations with Cardinal Burke comes during dynamic, intense and trying times effecting every one of us. I imagine you are as bewildered as I am seeing the confluence of crises and overlapping emergencies erupting in 2020. And could you imagine even ten or fifteen years ago that we would see an anti-American movement where people carry a disdain for standing for the National Anthem or having schoolchildren recite in class the Pledge of Allegiance?  Much less, a shocking degree of disregard for law and order in society. It is becoming more apparent the world has enjoyed unprecedented economic development and relative peace and stability as a result of having international order. The current order was born from the ashes of the second world war. This order was born from the ashes of the first world war and was hard earned costing the world one hundred and fifty million lives who were lost over the course of the 31-year period of what was a great power war from 1914-1945. Two other examples...

Supreme Court: Yes, Religious Freedom IS America Source: Family Policy Alliance   Family Policy Alliance applauds the U.S. Supreme Court’s rulings in Our Lady of Guadalupe School v. Morrissey-Berru and Little Sisters of the Poor. Both cases dealt with the freedom of religious institutions to follow their convictions, and in both cases the Court dealt strong rulings in support of religious freedom. The two cases asked can courts interfere with the employment decisions of religious institutions and can the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) force religious employers to cover contraceptives in their health plans? In both cases, the answer was a resounding “no.” Here are our takeaways. 1. Religious institutions, such as faith-based schools, are protected from court interference in their employment decisions. Our Lady of Guadalupe centered around a Catholic school that simply made an employment decision about one of its teachers – and got sued for it. The case asked whether the First Amendment prevents courts from interfering in situations like the one faced by the Catholic school. Yesterday, the Court took a stand on the side of freedom for religious institutions. Courts have often recognized the freedom churches have when they make employment decisions, particularly about those positions that include teaching or more public aspects to...

TWO DIFFERENT SCENES BOTH ON MAY 24, 2020 YOU COMPARE: WHO ARE FOLLOWING CIVIC GUIDELINES?  WHO SHOW CONCERN FOR THEIR NEIGHBORS?  THEN READ THE JUDGE’S COMMENT BELOW. USA GOVERNORS: CHURCHES ARE ESSENTIAL – LIFT YOUR UNJUST BANS Mainer v. Pritzker Transcript – Let Liberty Ring SOURCE: https://edgarcountywatchdogs.com/2020/05/mainer-v-pritzker-transcript-let-liberty-ring/ BY KIRK ALLEN ON MAY 23, 2020 Illinois (ECWd) – There are no words that would do justice to describe what Judge McHaney said during his ruling.  Maybe one day all our courts will have video media access but for now, we will have to accept the transcript, void of the verbal emphasis, and patriotic presentation of Judge McHaney’s ruling yesterday against Governor Pritzker. From Page 75 starting at line 17- “Since the inception of this insanity, the following regulations, rules or consequences have occurred:” I won’t get COVID if I get an abortion but I will get COVID if I get a colonoscopy. Selling pot is essential but selling goods and services at a family-owned business is not. Pot wasn’t even legal and pot dispensaries didn’t even exist in this state until five months ago and, in that five months, they have become essential but a family-owned business in existence for five generations is not....
