How Today's Society Cripples Women



“In as much as woman is loved, it follows that the nobler a woman is, the nobler man will have to be to be deserving of that love. That is why the level of any civilization is always its level of its womanhood.” – Fulton Sheen

The world has its feminist agenda and yet it does nothing to actually protects its women, instead it crushes her, making her out to be more an object than a human being; it hangs her on billboards around the streets, dressed provocatively, dressed as an object of pleasure and not as a woman with any dignity. It exploits her, it sells her. It claims she can be a lawyer, a doctor, claims she has the same intelligence and opportunities, and yet it cripples her; it says yes, you can be a lawyer, but you are still an object.

Women are not the same as men. Women are different and man’s role is not to compete with the woman like any man in the workforce, but to protect her. Society is so hung up on this notion that women are equal to men, when the whole reason for the two sexes is so that one can make up for the deficiencies of the other, so they can balance each other, build each other up. Men are supposed to protect women and women are supposed to be that gentle, nurturing support a man so desperately needs, a support he will not be able to get the same way from one of his male buddies.


We are not equal like the world claims we are. They have the wrong notion of equality. Everybody is different, unique. If a teacher were to teach each student the exact same way, you would have a classroom where some excel and some do not, because each individual responds differently, has different limitations and talents. Society will not be successful if it treats its citizens generically and society will not produce quality citizens if it crushes one of the first leaders of society – the mother, who gives birth and nurtures the next generation.

How Saint Philomena Found me a Husband

By Cara E. Ruegg You often hear it said, “To Saint Philomena, God refuses nothing.” Saint John Vianney was the author of those words. He loved Philomena. Pauline Jaricot, another devotee of Philomena, who was alive during the Cure’s time and who was healed by Philomena herself, came to him one day with relics of this dear saint, and told him, “Have full confidence in this great saint; she will obtain for you all that you ask.”   John Vianney claims he felt a love enkindled in his heart for Philomena soon as he got hold of her relics. He often referred to her as his “dear little saint”, going so far as to blame all the miracles wrought through him, on her. In fact, when he was at death’s door and the doctors had given up all hope of his recovery, it was through the intercession of Philomena that he was miraculously cured. (www.philomena.org/vianney.asp) Despite all this, despite the fact so many saints and even popes have praised her to the skies, I never thought

St. Don Bosco's Discipline Methods

By: Cara E. Ruegg Saint John Bosco is known for his care for the youth. His methods were perhaps seen as “new age” during his time, even though he drew inspiration from those before him such as St. Francis de Sales. His methods clearly bore good fruit, however, despite scrutiny from others. Under his care arose a great saint: Dominic Savio. He likewise converted many who were seen as hopeless cases. Below I have summarized one of Don Bosco’s writings: The Preventative System . In it, he outlines his discipline methods that bore such good fruit. I feel it can be easily applied both to educators as well as parents. Corporal Punishment is Largely Ineffective   Don Bosco says, "With the young, punishment is everything that is meant as a punishment. Thus it is known that a reproachful look is more effective than a blow...To strike one in anyway...and other similar punishments should be absolutely avoided." (pg 3) Punishment Should be Administered Privately "Except in very

My Home Water Birth During a Snowstorm

By: Cara E. Ruegg You were four days late and I was anxious for your arrival. My last midwife appointment, I was told I was measuring two weeks ahead; it was implied maybe I had gestational diabetes after all but I had been monitoring my sugars with my glucometer, something I thought far more accurate anyway, and fasting and after meals was still normal even with dessert, so I don’t think it was that. The midwife suggested I consider an ultrasound to check your weight to see if we should do the hospital route. She said she was trained to handle shoulder dystocia even at home but would prefer more hands. I remembered with your brother how inaccurate that last ultrasound was, nearly two pounds off. I also later did research and found maternal outcomes were better when the woman didn’t know her child would be big. It made sense. Fear is the enemy of labour. I was told though if you came before the ultrasound, we’d just go ahead with the home birth, so I was now ready for you to come, wher
