• The Powerful Witness of James Lane Buckley’s Eloquence in Defense of Life (John Grondelski, PhD, 8/22/2023) 
• "In 1976, James Buckley was trying to maintain his U.S. Senate seat against a challenge by Ambassador Daniel Patrick Moynihan. While both were practicing Catholics, only Buckley was identifiably pro-life. One of the religious brothers from our school told my buddy that he was voting for Moynihan because Moynihan’s positions were supposedly better for economically impoverished people. Somehow, I do not recall the brother’s 'calculus' ever being explained. Is it any wonder that Catholic lay people did not take the horrendous crime against humanity, abortion, with sufficient seriousness when Catholic leaders had dismissive attitudes about abortion?"
