GoodSearch is a Yahoo!-powered search engine that allows you to designate a recipient charity of your choice. Once you pick a charity, each time you use GoodSearch that group will receive one cent. GoodSearch was founded by a brother and sister who lost their mother to cancer and wanted to find an easy way for people to support their favorite causes.

The Acton Institute is now an option and can be designated as your GoodSearch recipient. Simply type in “Acton Institute” in the field below the search form to verify whom you are supporting.

Those looking for more direct ways to support the work of the Institute can join us in advancing freedom and virtue here.

Mamas, Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Newspaper Reporters. Let ‘Em Be Actuaries and Optometrists and Such.
What’s the deal with actuaries? Whenever a new list of the best jobs piled—like the rankings by Career Cast—they are always near the top of the list. What could really be so great about interpreting statistics to determine probabilities of accidents, sickness, and death, and loss of property from theft and natural disasters? And why have I never actually met an actuary? Are their jobs so exceedingly awesome that they don’t take time to associate with non-actuaries? Anyway, here are...
‘Tea Party Catholic:’ The Necessity of Faith and Liberty
Fr. C John McCloskey, research fellow at the Faith and Reason Institute, recently reviewed Sam Gregg’s Tea Party Catholic at the National Catholic Register. In “Life, Liberty and Faith,” McCloskey says, “Gregg builds an argument for free economy and human flourishing that is a must-read, regardless of your political affiliation or whether you are Catholic or a serious Christian concerned about the rapidly diminishing religious liberty in the United States.” McCloskey points out at the book focuses on the only...
Samuel Gregg on Pope Francis and Latin American Political History
Carl E Olson, editor of The Catholic World Report, recently wrote an article addressing the perception of Pope Francis by media members outside the Catholic Church. He says: Many in the American media, however, have already made up their minds: yes, the new pope is “liberal”, and that supposed fact is a big problem for those “conservative” bishops who keep harping about fringe issues such as the killing of the unborn, sexual immorality, the familial foundations of society, and the...
How Would You Like An ‘Affordable Healthy Food Act?’
The government is now in the health care business. Trans fats may be on their way out, and New York is trying to tell us to stop buying buckets of soda to drink. Can you imagine a land of the “Affordable Healthy Food Act?” Jacqueline Isaacs can. Imagine with me, a hypothetical world where a politician was running for the office of President of the United States on the platform that everyone deserved a healthy diet. Not so far-fetched of...
Where Is All That ‘Dark Money’ Coming From?
Your writer possesses well-meaning friends forever vigilant in my best interests. Most recently, one such kind soul sent an email alerting me to the dangers of so-called “dark money” in the political process. Believing himself on the side of the angels – and fully onside with activist nuns, priests and other religious – my friend sought my assistance in the fight against “evil” corporations participating in the political process. So I got the following in my inbox. And all I...
Does Church/State Separation Apply To Black Churches?
According to World News Daily the federal government has enlisted black church denominations to enroll people into Obamacare. Enroll America, a Washington-based nonprofit staffed in part by ex-Obama presidential campaign workers, is leading the enrollment campaign which saw just over 100,000 people “sign up” in October. Jessica Kendall, director of outreach for Enroll America, calls the task of signing up America’s uninsured the “largest enrollment effort that has ever been done in our history.” Her group is working with a...
‘Empty Labels’ In The Catholic Realm
Carl E. Olson, in an editorial entitled “Catholicism and the Convenience of Empty Labels,” says that many who write and discuss all things Catholic get lost in “fabricated conflicts” which lack context. Pope Francis, depending on who is speaking, is a darling of the “liberals” or a stalwart “conservative.” Suffice to say, the die has been cast for many journalists, and thus for their readers, when es to framing stories about the good Pope Francis and the evil “right-wingers” who...
Creation and the Heart of Man: ‘Orthodox and not Libertarian’
Today at Ethika Politika, Alfred Kentigern Siewers reviews Creation and the Heart of Man: An Orthodox Christian Perspective on Environmentalism, Acton’s recent Orthodox Christian social thought monograph by Fr. Michael Butler and Prof. Andrew Morriss. Siewers offers a nuanced and critical review, being well-read in the literature himself, and ultimately es the monograph as a missing voice in the broader conversation of Orthodox Christianity and creation care. Siewers writes, [I]n its introductory opening chapter, the authors clearly set forth their...
Are Human Beings Simply A Collection Of Body Parts?
There is nothing simple about Bl. John Paul II’s writings, and yet, his work collectively called the Theology of the Body offers a remarkable chance to reflect on the unique creation that is man. In modern culture, we see humanity reduced to a collection of parts (a lung to transplant, a womb to be rented) or as an instrument to be used (for lust or for slavery.) The human body has e “treachery”, as George Orwell notes in 1984, not...
What Will Your Religious Liberty Cost You? Obamacare Edition
We know freedom isn’t free. And apparently, we are now going to find out exactly how much our religious freedom is going to cost. Matthew Clark at Charisma News says that “refusal to violate your faith” under Obamacare is going to cost you…a lot. If you value your faith;if you are one of the millions of Americans who believe that abortion pills cause the destruction of innocent, God-given human life; if you are an employer who believes that being forced...
