Will my cat go straight to Heaven?

My cat just died. I think he got hit by a car because he had so much blood coming out of his mouth. I can't stop crying. He came and took his last breath right outside my door.

What are the best Catholic films?

For books I know The Bible and The Lord of the Rings (Dostoevsky on the other hand is Orthodox). For films I am not sure. I know The Passion of the Christ but Mel Gibson is kind of outside the Church, even if he likes old Catholicism.

First Eucharist Experience

I was baptized Catholic as a baby, but after my family stopped practicing I spent the next 14 years as an agnostic. Everything changed in 2024 when I sat beside my uncle as he slowly died of cancer. He wasn't afraid he knew he was going home to Christ. That moment started a jour…

Scared for the Church

I know our Church is the largest and greatest out of all Christian churches, but I'm still scared for its future. I attend a parish close to home and it's only older believers in attendance... Will the coming youth still frequent the Catholic Church as often as God expects them…

Even with an addiction, God doesn't forget you.

He was born in 19th-century China into a Christian family. A respected physician with a comfortable life, he treated the poor free of charge. By all appearances, he lived an exemplary life. However, a stomach illness led him to use opium, which was a common medical treatment at…

Why is Christmas fixed but Easter moveable?

Like it is my understanding that the December 25th Christmas date came from the early Church fathers placing Jesus’s conception and death date as the same date on March 25th. So if that is the case why is one moveable and one fixed instead of having both fixed or both moveable?

The Catholic response to panhandlers - a question

"Give to him who begs from you, and do not refuse him who would borrow from you." - Matthew 5:42 I live in a big city where panhandlers are at every corner and not all of them are homeless. Some even admit that they ask because people will give, and they stand in front of church…

This week marked 80 years since the King David Hotel bombing in Jerusalem. On July 22, 1946, members of the Irgun planted explosives beneath the hotel’s south wing, which housed the British Mandatory government’s Secretariat and military headquarters. Ninety-one people were kill…
