The Bavarian
BY Father Owen Kearns, LC
April 13-19, 2008 Issue
In this issue, we interview Brennan Pursell and review his
new Benedict of Bavaria.
We’re excited about the book for two reasons. First, because
it is published by Circle Press, the book publishing arm of the company that
brings you the Register. It comes just in time to take advantage of... READ MORE

Catholic Consciences
I hope the sampling of critical letters in response to your
editorial “McCain and Pro-Lifers” (March 2) didn’t reflect the sentiments of a
majority of your readers. How disappointing!
I thought the article was wonderful — the best explanation
I’ve seen of what a... READ MORE
Benedict Is Coming
BY The Editors
April 6-12, 2008 Issue
Pope Benedict XVI will soon arrive for his apostolic journey
to the United States. The Register plans to make the most of the visit. Like
any other papal visit, this one will follow a predictable arc of
misrepresentation in the media, followed by surprise that the Pope is not
identical to the... READ MORE
Awaiting Peter
BY Father Owen Kearns, LC
April 6-12, 2008 Issue
The upcoming visit of Pope Benedict XVI is becoming more
real for us. Our writers and editors just received notice of their
accreditation for different events — subject to screening by the secret
service.
As a newspaper publisher, I look forward to a rare
opportunity in the papal visit to... READ MORE

Personal God
Regarding Mark Shea’s article “Beyond Tribal Faith” (March
16):
Mark’s comments concern a mother at a loss to speak to her
daughter meaningfully about God, or even about death. Mark intimates that the
rattle of death is no mere flatulence: death, albeit definitively cracked... READ MORE
We’re Waiting, Barack
BY The Editors
March 30-April 5, 2008 Issue
We were waiting through Barack Obama’s rousing speech on
racial equality to hear the bedrock principle of human rights on which racial
equality depends. We were waiting to hear the revolutionary words of equality
that were incorporated after the Second World War by the United Nations in... READ MORE
The Latest
BY Father Owen Kearns, LC
March 30-April 5, 2008 Issue
We have been telling you a lot about Pope2008.com
recently. One reason we are talking about it so much is that it’s new, and
therefore, exciting.
But another reason is that it is truly making an impact.
The immediacy of the Internet has allowed us to “break”
several stories using... READ MORE

Faith-Driven Decision
Regarding “McCain and Pro-Lifers” (March 2):
Thank you for explaining why this election may require
a negative vote. “Who do you vote against?” is the correct question.
The points supporting your conclusion regarding the
pro-death Democratic candidates needed some... READ MORE
New Media
BY Father Owen Kearns, LC
March 23-29, 2008 Issue
The Register is a broadsheet newspaper, but recently, we’ve
made some “new media” waves.
First, with Pope2008.com, the blog our senior writer Tim
Drake is keeping before, during and after upcoming papal events.
Tim’s work has gotten a lot of notice — including a recent
interview on... READ MORE
Easter In the Land of Martyrs
BY The Editors
March 23-29, 2008 Issue
Cardinal John Henry Newman, while still an Anglican priest,
suggested two ways to renew the horror of the Crucifixion in your mind if you
have grown cold to it. First, he suggested imagining a child in the place of
Christ, being tortured and killed. We would feel the horror of it because
children... READ MORE

Old Mass’ Appeal
Thank you so much for your article, Ite, Missa Est on the
forma extraordinaria in your Feb. 17-23 issue.
However, I must point out one significant error in the
article.
It should be noted that the Masses using the 1962 Missal at
Saint Vincent are not sponsored by campus... READ MORE
Broadcasting Him
BY The Editors
March 16-22, 2008 Issue
The Holy Spirit had the Internet in mind at the Second
Vatican Council. Undoubtedly he did, because, being God, he was not limited by
time and space and in no position to be surprised. But, looking at the way the
role of the laity was redefined, he certainly did.
Today’s dizzying array of new... READ MORE
This Week
BY Father Owen Kearns, LC
March 16-22, 2008 Issue
This issue marks an interesting milestone for the Register:
In it we publish our first article that is entirely in verse; at least the
first I’ve seen. It’s Steven D. Greydanus’ review of the new Dr. Seuss story at
the movies: Horton Hears a Who.
The Register thus joins an unlikely trend in... READ MORE

Faulty Theology
Regarding “Romney’s Religion” (Dec. 16):
As an adult, I made the mistake of reading the book The
Great Apostasy by James Talmage before I was sufficiently formed in the
Catholic faith. I began to view Scripture through “Mormon glasses” and was
closer to becoming Mormon... READ MORE
‘Fear Not, Little Flock’
BY The Editors
March 9-15, 2008 Issue
More than one in four American adults have left the faith in
which they were brought up. So says exhaustive research from the Pew Forum on
Religion and Public Life, based on interviews with 35,000 Americans aged 18 and
up.
The survey also found that
Protestantism will soon lose its status as the... READ MORE

This issue of the Register is a good example of why readers
get so enthusiastic about the newspaper.
One of our goals is to give you the information you need to
address the issues of the day from a Catholic perspective. In this issue of the
Register, you’ll find the second in a series of stories... READ MORE

Liturgical Abuse?
Having enjoyed the wonderful book Why Catholics Can’t Sing
by Thomas Day (head of the music department at Salve Regina College in Rhode
Island), I am usually sympathetic to Webster Young’s arguments. But when he
claims the song “Keep in Mind’ is one of the “high points... READ MORE
McCain and Pro-Lifers
BY The Editors
March 2-8, 2008 Issue
John McCain hasn’t been very popular in some quarters. It
seems that his party doesn’t like him nearly as much as Barack Obama and even
Hillary Clinton are liked by their party. Conservative talk-show hosts have
even complained loudly that they would vote for his opponent rather than... READ MORE

Examining Our Priorities
Referring to the article, “Bishops Oppose Personhood
Amendment” appearing in the Feb. 3 Register:
When the contents of this article were announced in the
