Can nations justify war by citing the Hebrew Bible? When modern states invoke the Hebrew Bible to defend war, they usually make a simple move: ancient Israel fought enemies in the name of God, so nations today may do the same.

Ancient Israel was not unique simply because Read More… Can nations justify war by citing the Hebrew Bible?... 🔗 https://aleteia.org/2026/03/10/can-nations-justify-war-by-citing-the-hebrew-bible/ #Catholic #Aleteia #Bible

NPR campaign has us thinking of a good spiritual habit (and its dangers) Earlier this month, NPR (National Public Radio, based in the US) unveiled a campaign built around a simple idea: curiosity matters. In a playful redesign of its well-known initials, NPR’s logo briefly transforms into three basic questions — how, who, and why — accompanied by the slogan “For your right to be curious.” The campaign Read More… NPR campaign has us thinking of a good spiritual habit...... 🔗 https://aleteia.org/2026/03/06/npr-campaign-has-us-thinking-of-a-good-spiritual-habit-and-its-dangers/ #Catholic #Aleteia #Christian
