  • 81 killed in bloody Boko Haram attack in Nigerian village (CNN, 6/10/2020) 
  • "it is not enough that an organization calls itself Catholic, that it has Catholics on its board, and that it makes strong assurances that everything it does is in accord with Church teaching.... While there might be several programs and commitments of the ISN [Ignatian Solidarity Network] that raise concerns, the Lepanto Institute has focused on the advocacy for LGBT issues....Nothing in the materials of the ISN speak of chastity, the sacraments, prayer or healthy friendships. That Catholics object to their money being given to the ISN should not be surprising.... The CCHD should welcome feedback from diligent Catholics and when they are correct, they should remedy poor judgments" (Dr Janet Smith, 6/9/2020).

"Cells culled from deliberately aborted babies are being used in the production of at least five leading coronavirus vaccine candidates, including front-runners by Moderna Therapeutics, Johnson and Johnson and Oxford University....
