My mother sent me a subscription to this magazine.

My suggestion would be to cancel the subscription and ask "Mom" to send you a subscription to any one of the following:

FIRST THINGS
FIRST THINGS is published by The Institute on Religion and Public Life, an interreligious, nonpartisan research and education institute whose purpose is to advance a religiously informed public philosophy for the ordering of society.
FIRST THINGS

or

The Wanderer  has been providing its readers with news and commentary from an orthodox Catholic perspective for over 135 years. From vital issues affecting the Catholic Church to the political events which threaten our Catholic faith. The Wanderer  is at the forefront every week with its timely coverage and its cutting edge editorials.
THE WANDERER (you can request a free copy at this link).

or

The news the secular media doesn't want you to see.  From the nation's premier Catholic weekly newspaper.
THE NATIONAL CATHOLIC REGISTER

Tomorrow is Mother's Day. Why not surprise 'Mom' with her own subscription to one and or all three of these orthodox catholic publications! What better gift than one that keeps on giving.

Any idea which articles resulted in the request for resignation?

Apparently, many! Several bishops have written the Vatican complaining about the anti-catechetical reporting in this magazine. Toss it out!

This Rock is an excellent apologetics magazine edited by Karl Keating of Catholic Answers. It features articles by a diverse group including James Akin. It is a monthly and always has a segment explaining in detail why the Church believes in some Article of Faith amply giving quotes from Scripture and the Church Fathers. I recommend it very highly.
