MGB:_While the Air Force was negligent, a bit of investigation is needed before a suit can proceed and be quickly settled.
The Cardinal’s statement is good, although the problem was not access to healthcare but the fact that the patient escaped and was not pursued. More people need mandatory treatment and follow-up, which is still better than relying on the criminal justice system. Catholic Health should take the lead.
I usually don’t read First Things, but the piece by Fr. Imbelli goes down the right road. If those who argued with A.L. had read Evangelii, they could have saved their breath. It answers the question about why A.L. does not deal with doctrine. It is because everything need not be part of the Magisterium. Indeed, he raises the question of whether the idea of one is necessary or not. What most popes write is pretty ephemeral. Time is bigger than space is interesting, of course in physics they are one thing. Realities being bigger than ideas is a great antidote to a Curia which is obsessed with sexual morality based on first principles without bothering to check with current research and the experience of real people. That unity prevails over conflict is why he simply ignores people sniping at his heals from the cheap seats. Fr. Imbelli thinks the principles are still uncertain. He needs sit with them rather than thinking about them.
Goveror-Elect Northum paid his dues the usual way, beating a Sanders Democrat, which is good for Virginia but not necessarily everywhere. Northum’s counter attacks were on point, even though I would have loved to see a response that equated opposition to felon rights restoration as voting suppression against black men, which it is. Winning elections is not necessarily winning the moral argument, it is getting out the vote.
