Nova Forum is proud to be part of this story! "Secular universities across the country are home to independent institutes of Catholic thought ... part of a push to make the religion’s intellectual tradition a vital aspect of academic life." @LC_Institute @Collegium_Penn

In Kyiv, a woman saved her one-month-old daughter from shelling by covering her with her body.
Fortunately, the whole family survived.
This story was told at the Okhmatdyt Hospital, where the baby was brought with his parents.

Sadly applies in spades to Catholic "national conservatives" and First Things editorial. Some academics dropped "nationalism" and are now testing deceptively milquetoast "postliberalism," but what's the difference. Years of foolish winking at anti-democratic politics

Our co-founding directors, @atpapanik and @GDemacopoulos have been warning us for almost a decade about the threat Putin poses to the global Church:
