Pulses and Impulses: The world as God s theater

By Dr. Jeff Mirus ( bio - articles - email ) | Feb 16, 2021 I could not help but smile at the news that Pope Francis had sent a message, via the Vatican’s Secretary for Relations with States, to be read at a global “virtual” ceremony marking World Pulses Day. Never mind that it took me a little time to figure out what “pulses” were (annual crops harvested solely as dry grains, yielding between one and a dozen grains or seeds). As better-informed Catholics know, they are an important source of nutrition for the poor. By word association, this led me to reflect on a classic first world problem, the conflict between pulses and impulses, and on the chronic mishandling of both. Here we are in the West, busying ourselves with a continuing redefinition of human sexuality to cater to various “impulses”, while so many people both here and abroad would love to be busy solving the problem of getting enough to eat.

What big teeth you have! Why abortion IS a defining issue

Societal polarization: Dangerous but also a sacred duty

By Dr. Jeff Mirus ( bio - articles - email ) | Jan 22, 2021 Some Catholic commentators are wringing their hands now about the polarization in the United States (and certainly many other places), and the need for everyone to come together in a process of healing under the new Administration of Joe Biden. Indeed, Biden himself has emphasized the importance of healing the wounds of our divisions. But this is simply standard political rhetoric for a man who campaigned on a platform precisely designed to rub the wounds raw, and who has already deliberately poured salt in the wounds by, among other things, his appointments to leadership positions in the Department of Health and Human Services.
