I wonder how our well-Catechized youth and certain adults will view such notions.Paulnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-13576447811089946212015-10-01T18:19:41.764-04:002015-10-01T18:19:41.764-04:00If only we had more bishops like Olmsted.

Says who?<br /><br />Why do we take it for granted that the victories of the secularists are permanent but our victories are only and always temporary? <br /><br />Because perhaps too many of our nominal "leaders" really believe, deep down in their hearts of hearts that God isn't God and that what we ultimately must respect are merely only vicious and will-ful men? <br /><br />It will get darker before the dawn, but the dawn is coming. The sexual and socialist revolutions will run their course and follow all the other empires and ideologies of mankind's sad history into the dust heap of ruin. For all that is not of God will wither and die on that same score.Jusadbellumnoreply@blogger.com
