This is one of the articles I’ve promised to recover, originally published in an Evangelical Protestant magazine for students called Boundless, to which I was a monthly contributor before being received into the Catholic Church.  You may notice a few distinctively Catholic notes.

 

I am not going to take a position here on whether Mr. Trump is a genius, a madman, or something in between.  I do want to criticize the notion that he “acts on whims” and is “volatile.”

 

Whatever you may think of the DOGE up in Washington, we need something like a DOGE purge at the Vatican.  This will require a strong pope who is utterly committed to the defense of the faith.

He will have to overhaul Vatican finances, but that’s only the beginning.

 

Query:

I have been arguing with my friends about the existence of God.  How can we weigh the evidence for and against a position?  How do we know how much evidence is needed to prove a position?  It’s impossible to prove all of the arguments for a position.
