The Catholic ThingThe Meaning of LifeBy Michael Pakaluk
What is the meaning of life? I shall tell you.
That life should have "meaning" is a distinctively modern concern. In the classical world, it was enough if a life were good, successful, and reasonable. We all strive for happiness, it was said: what could "meaning" possibly add?
In the classical outlook, however, it was taken for granted that any natural reality, such as human life, inherently has a telos (i.e., an end towards which it tends). Take away that telos and one looks for a meaning distinct from that thing. In a...2025-07-1706 min
The Catholic ThingToday's "Corban" is Social SecurityBy Michael Pakaluk.
God's plan for a person's support in old age can be stated in five words: children, and the extended family.
The Church teaches that this is affirmed by the Fourth Commandment. "Honor your father and your mother" means to obey them when under their care, and to love and honor them always, which includes providing them with the necessities of life when they are old and infirm. "Children must give their parents material and moral support in old age and in times of illness, loneliness, or distress." (CCC 2218)
It's just that children repay their...2025-07-0306 min

The Catholic ThingTwo Reflections on the VisitationElizabeth's Faith as Shown in the Visitation
By Michael Pakaluk
Mary travelled "with haste" to visit Elizabeth. The trip of 90 miles can be done in under four days by a fit person walking quickly. Conception takes place in the fallopian tube, and after that, for about six days, the embryo travels down the tube to implant in the uterus. Therefore, the Lord was an embryo in the blastula stage in one of Mary's fallopian tubes, not even implanted, when Mary greeted Elizabeth.
Elizabeth, five months earlier, when she had discovered she was pregnant, had placed herself in...2025-05-3113 min
The Catholic ThingOur Lord's Languages of LoveBy Michael Pakaluk.
We say that "prayer is conversation with God," but that's not strictly correct. Prayer to God is conversation with God. Prayer to a saint is conversation with a saint. So, rather, prayer is conversation. It gets its name from just one thing we can do in a conversation, which is to ask (Latin,
precare).
Being an interlocutor in a conversation is hardly an incommunicable trait of divinity. Therefore, Protestants make a gross blunder when they accuse Catholics who pray to Mary of idolatry, simply because they converse with her. There is no reason why...2025-05-2206 min

The Catholic ThingMatthew the Investor: Pakaluk's 'Be Good Bankers'By Brad Miner.
Be Good Bankers is a remarkable title - one that places the book's premise boldly, perhaps controversially, before the reader. And the story of how Prof. Michael Pakaluk came upon it - years ago as a grad student at Harvard - is both compelling and provocative. It also shines a light on the heart of the Roman Catholic faith.
You won't find the phrase, "Be good bankers," in the New Testament. You will find it in the writings of the early Church Fathers. Pakaluk discovered the phrase when he was reading Francis de Sales' Introduction...2025-05-1006 min
