Southwest Kansas Catholic Vol. XLIV No. 17 dcdiocese.org/swkscatholic The Newspaper of the Diocese of Dodge City Sunday, December 22, 2019 NEWS OF GREAT JOY! The Most Rev. John B. Brungardt, Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Dodge City “The angel said to them, ‘Do not be afraid; for behold, I proclaim to you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For today in the city of David, a Savior has been born for you who is Messiah and Lord.’” -- Luke 2:10-11 harles Schultz, the genius writer of the comic strip series “Peanuts,” wrote Ca classic video enti tled “A Charlie Brown Christmas.” The boy Charlie Brown is questi oning just what is the true meaning of Christmas. Aft er reciti ng from Luke’s gospel (2:8-14), his friend Linus says: “That’s what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown.” Yes, Christmas is about the Good News, the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Jesus loves us so much, that He came to this earth as a child. He grew, taught us to love, died on the cross to take away our sins, and rose from the dead to open the gates of heaven. Salvati on in Jesus – that is Good News! Yes, Christmas is about Great Joy, this love of the Christ Child for us. The peace, happiness, and joy that we so desperately seek is found in this litt le boy. Jesus is or to us a Child is born, our brother, our friend, our Savior. He is our refuge in ti mes of illness, suff ering, or to us a Son is given ... temptati on. Jesus – He brings us Joy! The cast of “A Charlie Brown Christmas” and His name will be called concludes with the exhortati on: “Merry Christmas, Charlie Brown!”, then they sing “Wonderful Counselor, “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing.” I conclude similarly: “Merry Christmas, faithful of the Mighty God, Everlasting Diocese!” May we open our hearts to receive Baby Jesus’ joyful message! Father, Prince of Peace.” + Bishop John -- Isaiah 9:6 Page 2 December 22, 2019 The Southwest Kansas Catholic The one thing o celebrate Christmas properly, T the single thing we really need is “Faith.” But Faith is hard to come by when our normal reasons for believing crumble. Those who helped us to believe in the first place, they may themselves fail. Most of the Catholics we know Most Rev. may fall well short of Ronald M. Gilmore how they should act. Bishop Emeritus of The Church herself may Dodge City seem to go fuzzy on the essential revealed Truths, and all that they imply for our living in Christ. These things happen. That is why it is important to understand that all our secondary reasons for believing are helpful, to be sure, but they are not crucial to the act of Faith. They are not fi nally the decisive reason why we believe. That is to be found in the invisible Spirit, and in His secret work within Bishop John Brungardt us. We believe because God himself reveals that Bishop Emeritus Ronald Gilmore He loved us into existence, that He loves us in the unfolding of our Redempti on, and that He will love us forever in Heaven. That broke upon us when He Sister Diane Leary, former walked among us. We caught a glimpse of it before we blinked.

FOULSTON: THE CREATION OF A MINOR'S RIGHT TO PRIVACY AND A NEW PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION STANDARD INTRODUCTION Forty-six percent of teens aged fifteen to nineteen have had sex at least once.' This startling statistic raises the question of how the state, which has an interest in protecting its youth, should deal with underage sex. Some people argue for promoting abstinence, others argue for pro- viding contraceptives; some argue for education in schools, others for parental education. There are a variety of ways to deal with the problem, and some are more controversial than others. Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline found one of the most controversial ways to protect teenagers from the harms of sex, implemented it in an attorney general opinion, and faced the inevitable public critique and lawsuits over his choice of protection.

    Constitutional Rights in Kansas After Hodes & Nauser

    Constitutional Rights in Kansas After Hodes & Nauser Richard E. Levy* I. INTRODUCTION In Hodes & Nauser, MDs, P.A. v. Schmidt,1 the Kansas Supreme Court held that section 1 of the Kansas Constitution’s Bill of Rights protects a woman’s fundamental right “to make her own decisions regarding her body, health, family formation, and family life—decisions that can include whether to continue a pregnancy.”2 For the most part, reactions to this long-awaited and controversial decision fell along predictable lines, with pro-choice advocates hailing the decision as an important advancement for women’s reproductive freedoms, and right to life advocates condemning the decision and vowing to reverse it by state constitutional amendment.3 In this Article, I will leave those important but intractable debates to one side and focus on a more practical question: What are the implications of Hodes & Nauser for the interpretation and application of constitutional rights in Kansas? The central premise of this Article is that Hodes & Nauser decouples Kansas individual rights doctrine from the United States Supreme Court’s constitutional rights jurisprudence, with significant implications not only for abortion rights but also for many other constitutional rights.4 When * J.B.
