George Weigel on the Papal Visit to the United States
By George Weigel
Posted: Tuesday, April 22, 2008

Rewriting History by Law is Stalinist
George Weigel on current politics in Spain.
By George Weigel
Posted: Monday, January 14, 2008
The institutional separation of church and state -- which is good for the Catholic Church -- cannot mean the separation of religious and moral conviction from public life. It is profoundly undemocratic to tell people of faith that they can’t bring the deepest sources of their moral convictions -- religious sources -- into public life.  [Read More]
