Lind, Marshner wrote the 1987 book ''Cultural Conservatism: A New National Agenda'', which Lew Daly has described as "a new principled framework for policies that would strengthen traditional religious culture". Writing for ''The Wall Street Journal'', Ed Crane noted that the book was significant for its "open break with the Libertarian, individualistic, rights-oriented brand of conservatism" but called it "a deeply, dangerously flawed book". The ''National Review'' observed that the book had caused "a considerable stir in conservative c ...

The American Journal Of Jurisprudence
''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things that are already or about to be mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with nouns of any gender. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter. This is different from many other languages, which have different forms of the definite article for different genders or numbers. Pronunciation In most dialects, "the" is pronounced as (with the voiced dental fricative followed by a schwa) when followed by a consonant sound, and as (homophone of the archaic pr ...

Ephemerides Mariologicae
In astronomy and celestial navigation, an ephemeris (pl. ephemerides; ) is a book with tables that gives the trajectory of naturally occurring astronomical objects as well as artificial satellites in the sky, i.e., the position (and possibly velocity) over time. Historically, positions were given as printed tables of values, given at regular intervals of date and time. The calculation of these tables was one of the first applications of mechanical computers. Modern ephemerides are often provided in electronic form. However, printed ephemerides are still produced, as they are useful when computational devices are not available. The astronomical position calculated from an ephemeris is often given in the spherical polar coordinate system of right ascension and declination, together with the distance from the origin if applicable. Some of the astronomical phenomena of interest to astronomers are eclipses, apparent retrograde motion/planetary stations, planetary es, sidereal tim ...

Triumph (magazine)
''Triumph'' was a monthly American magazine published by L. Brent Bozell, Jr. from 1966 to 1976. It commented on religious, philosophical, and cultural issues from the traditionalist Catholic perspective. Origin Bozell founded ''Triumph'' in 1966 as a magazine for American Catholic conservatives following the Second Vatican Council. Bozell, previously an editor for ''National Review'' founded by his brother-in-law William F. Buckley, Jr., was put off by the insufficient respect the largely Catholic editorial board of the magazine paid to Catholic social teaching. Specifically, he protested the prevailing attitude of "Mater si, magistra no" towards Pope John XXIII's papal encyclicals ''Mater et Magistra'' and '' Pacem in terris''. For example, Bozell considered Buckley too soft in his opposition to abortion. Dismayed by the direction in which American intellectual conservatism was going, Bozell resigned from ''National Review'' in 1963 and assembled the first issue of ''Triumph'' ...

Indult
In Catholic canon law, an indult is a permission or privilege, granted by the competent church authority – the Holy See or the diocesan bishop, as the case may be – for an exception from a particular norm of church law in an individual case. For example, according to the canons 692 and 693 of the 1983 ''Code of Canon Law'', an indult is needed when members of the consecrated life want to be dispensed from their religious vows, or when priests and deacons voluntarily seek to return to the lay state (usually to marry). A recent indult was the one granted in 1984 by Pope John Paul II, ''Quattuor abhinc annos'', which authorised the world's Catholic bishops to permit celebrations of the Tridentine Mass liturgy in their dioceses. This indult was superseded in 2007 by new legislation introduced by Pope Benedict XVI in the ''motu proprio'' ''Summorum Pontificum ''Summorum Pontificum'' (English: "Of the Supreme Pontiffs") is an apostolic letter of Pope Benedict XVI, issued in ...
