		<description><![CDATA[Within the last fortnight, I finished reading The Pope’s Legion, Charles Coulombe’s book on the Papal Zouaves. Besides being intelligently written and enjoyable, the book inspires because the subject matter is itself edifying. The Pontifical Zouaves were Blessed Pius IX’s foreign legion, who fought to defend the Papal States from the anticlericals and revolutionaries that united the Italian peninsula along the lines of Freemasonic, Enlightenment &#8230; <a class="readmorelink" href="http://catholicism.org/ad-rem-no-185.html">More &#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is not true to say that the disciples of Father Feeney are against desire.1 Our public witness is directed toward bringing people to believe the true Faith, and to desire to enter Christ&#8217;s Body, the Catholic Church. God Himself, who inspires holy desires, will see to it that they are fulfilled (cf. Phil. 1:6). Desire, simply considered, is a motion toward a good we &#8230; <a class="readmorelink" href="http://catholicism.org/ad-rem-no-184.html">More &#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha is scheduled to be canonized on October 21, 2012. Less than a month before that, she will be honored by the pilgrims walking the annual &#8220;Pilgrimage for Restoration&#8221; to Auriesville, New York. Below, I reproduce a press release that explains this year&#8217;s theme, which explicitly mentions the holy Mohawk virgin every Catholic American should love. In promoting this worthwhile event, I feel &#8230; <a class="readmorelink" href="http://catholicism.org/ad-rem-no-183.html">More &#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This Thursday, the Church celebrates that sacrosanct night when the High Priest of the New Law, Christ our God, instituted the Blessed Eucharist (εὐχαριστία &#8211; Eucharistia). This great Gift of God, which goes under various names considered under its different aspects, is preeminantly known as our &#8220;Thanksgiving.&#8221; By this Mystery, the Church renders perfect thanks to God.

		<description><![CDATA[Christians are by grace what Christ is by nature. That is to say, the members of Christ&#8217;s Body (the Catholic Church) are deified so that we, too, can be called sons of God. By grace, we are so identified with our Redeemer that His joyful, sorrowful, and glorious mysteries become our mysteries, too. (We have termed this elsewhere the &#8220;Mystical Incarnation.&#8221;) Right now, we are &#8230; <a class="readmorelink" href="http://catholicism.org/ad-rem-no-180.html">More &#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The solemn fast of Lent is intended to convert us, to renew us, and to conform us more and more to Jesus Christ. This happens through the three means of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving — which are most powerful when joined with assisting regularly at the Church’s liturgy. One of my pet peeves with the popular conception of Lent is that it is a time &#8230; <a class="readmorelink" href="http://catholicism.org/ad-rem-no-179.html">More &#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Lent is on its way. During this penitential season of grace, the Church&#8217;s liturgy will put sentiments of penance on our lips and in our minds. She will also enjoin us, in various ways, to do works of penance. In my last Ad Rem, Christ’s Commission and Obama’s Mandate: A Teachable Moment, I made the argument that the Church in America is reaping the bitter &#8230; <a class="readmorelink" href="http://catholicism.org/ad-rem-no-178.html">More &#8594;</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The big news in American Catholic circles is the Obama administration&#8217;s &#8220;contraceptive mandate.&#8221; This latest unethical intrusion of big government stipulates that employers, including religious institutions, provide their employees with insurance coverage for contraceptives, sterilizations, and specific abortifacients such as Ella and Plan B.

		<description><![CDATA[One of the most important things for a person to have is an identity. This is why names are so important to us. Adam was given power to name things in the Garden of Eden, showing that he had dominion over the rest of creation, including Eve, whom he named.
