By: Peter Larocque – September, 2017 God Bless you all in the name above all names, Jesus Christ. I read recently that some of you met with Mayor Rivera and Police Chief James Fitzpatrick concerning the increase in violence in the City of Lawrence, first allow me to congratulate you and to thank you for […]
By: Paul Murano – May, 2017 Let’s immediately go beneath the surface on one of the biggest challenges of our time: gender confusion. A significant reason for the confusion can be explained in how modern reductionist theory has closed our minds and gutted us of our intuition. We have lost sight of what everyone used […]
By: Paul Murano – Feb. 2017 There may be no greater difference between secular progressivism and Christianity than in how suffering is viewed. As part of the human condition, the world sees absolutely no value in suffering. The Christian sees it much differently. This season of Lent is a good time to reflect on and […]
By: Paul Murano – Feb. 2017 Each February St. Valentine’s Day confronts us with the notion of love with hearts abounding everywhere. Have you ever wondered why the heart is the symbol of love? Let us ponder the fact that, from time immemorial, the symbol of love has been an image of the heart – […]
By: Paul Murano – January, 2017 If you’re looking for a new year’s resolution I have a suggestion. Resolve to contemplate more. Busyness of life and of mind may be the biggest obstacle to inner peace. The great Aristotle once said contemplation was the highest form of happiness. It satisfies the highest part of human […]
Hindus are urging renowned Merrimack College in North Andover (Massachusetts) to add “Hindu” to its Jewish-Christian-Muslim Relations Center to be inclusive for its Hindu students and the community. Hindu statesman Rajan Zed, in a statement in Nevada today, said that by including Hinduism, oldest and third largest religion of the world with about one billion […]
By: Paul Murano – Dec. 2016 Christmas season brings out many timeless songs that have been sung for generations, both religious and secular, which brings warmth to the heart. I enjoy the secular side of Christmas and its mythological figures of Santa, Frosty, and Rudolph. In essence it is a celebration of winter in its […]
By: Tom Duggan – Nov. 2016 With all the media lies and misrepresentations about Donald Trump before the election, it’s hard to know what was real and what was just made-up, anti-Trump hysteria. So, what will Donald Trump do as president? Nobody really knows the answer to that since he has never been elected to […]
By: Paul Murano – Nov. 2016 I am writing this one week before the presidential election. As of this writing, you know who the president elect is, but I do not. I do this deliberately. The time for persuasion and voting is over, at least for another four years; and regardless of who won, it […]
By: Paul Murano – Sept. 2016 It’s a provocative question in today’s cultural climate, but for those familiar with this column and my radio show, you know that going beneath the surface means abandoning all intimidation to political correctness. In today’s highly sensitized world where many are hiding from themselves and the light that could […]
By: Forest Rain – August, 2016 Yes. I said it. Don’t jump on me, hear me out. This is not about being derogatory to an entire culture, this is about a little discussed but very dangerous trend that is effecting the entire world. Yes. This is a generalization. Again – this is NOT about individuals, […]

By: Paul Murano, Aug. 2016 When I was growing up I saw Democrats and Republicans switch values on the important cultural issues defining what it means to be human. Democrats were pro-life and supported natural marriage while Republicans were liberal on cultural issues. This changed when Rockefeller Republicanism evolved into Reaganism, and secular humanism was […]
By: Paul Murano – July, 2016 The more I live the more I come to realize how difficult it is for most people to distinguish between actions and the people who perform them – to judge behaviors but not persons.It is very common to hate those who do evil and love those who do good. […]
John 1:19, reads as follows, “For the law [the 10 Commandments] was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.” Notice grace and truth are on the side of Jesus Christ while the law is on the side of Moses. The Scriptures make it very clear that God’s Grace cannot be separated […]
