** MARCHING TOWARD A DIFFERENT FUTURE
------------------------------------------------------------
By EPPC Distinguished Senior Fellow George Weigel
Syndicated Column
------------------------------------------------------------
The annual March for Life in Washington began in 1974—and it’s hard to think of a more admirable or consistent public witness to the dignity of the human person being given for so many years by so many people of all races, religions, and social classes. Read More ([link removed])

** BIDEN’S “MINOR INCURSION” REMARK WAS MORE THAN JUST A GAFFE. IT REVEALED A WEAK PRESIDENT.
------------------------------------------------------------
By EPPC Senior Fellow Henry Olsen
The Washington Post
------------------------------------------------------------
President Biden’s news conference on Wednesday was a microcosm of the reasons his presidency is on life support. Nothing better demonstrates that than his statement that the United States might tolerate a Russian “minor incursion” into Ukraine. Read More ([link removed])

(See also Mr. Olsen’s piece ([link removed]) on new polling that suggests the GOP may be becoming the country’s majority party—perhaps “an early sign of an upheaval that would transform American politics.”)

** EPPC Scholars Submit Public Comment Opposing OSHA’s Unlawful Vaccine Mandate ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------

EPPC scholars Roger Severino, Rachel N. Morrison, Dr. David Gortler, and Dr. Aaron Kheriaty this week submitted a public comment opposing finalization of OSHA’s rule ([link removed]) that would mandate COVID-19 vaccination in workplaces.

On January 13, the Supreme Court held that OSHA acted without Congressional authority when it issued an Emergency Temporary Standard (ETS) requiring the vaccination or testing of 84 million Americans, selected simply because they work for employers with more than 100 employees during the era of COVID. As part of the ETS, which would expire in six months, OSHA issued an interim final rule that, once finalized after receiving public comments, would bind employers and employees indefinitely.

** SHALL WE CANCEL THE THEOLOGIANS?
------------------------------------------------------------
By EPPC Fellow Carl R. Trueman
WORLD Opinions
------------------------------------------------------------
There is a form of cancel culture emerging within the ranks of Christians. It operates with selective pieties drawn from the wider woke culture and reflects, whether by accident or design, the same self-righteousness that marks the secular world. Read More ([link removed])

(See also Dr. Trueman’s piece “Why Preaching Is Central to Priesthood ([link removed]) ,” based on remarks given at the Eighth Day Institute’s banquet commemorating the life and ministry of John Chrysostom.)

** MEMORY, HISTORY, AND HOPE
------------------------------------------------------------
By EPPC Senior Fellow Francis X. Maier
The Catholic Thing

------------------------------------------------------------
Today’s distressing turmoil in the world and discord in the Church are hardly new. They’re part of humanity’s fallen nature and – unavoidably – our normal pastoral terrain. Read More ([link removed])
