SHJIHM :: Our Beloved Saints :: Saint of the Day: Sunday, August 12, 2007

"‘Tonight, in the city of David, a Savior is born, 'tis Christ the Lord.'"

"There are not over a hundred people in the United States who hate the Catholic Church. There are millions, however, who hate what they wrongly believe to be the Catholic Church, which is, of course, quite a different thing."
-Bishop Fulton J. Sheen

Placating terrorists, meeting with dictators, compassion for murderers... but no humanity for the unborn... incredible.
