It is easier to do the latter but we must do the former. It is “engaging the enemy.” We can’t let them get by with their smears, even if they’re just repeating the lame stream. We have to say something like, “you know, that Yahoo article has almost 100% of their facts wrong.” And then we start pointing out the errors. Force your acquaintances to cut the connection, not you. Be aggressive!
As you know or not I stay in Tucson in the winter months. This morning at Mass the monsignor read a letter from our bishop and it contained the information that the little girl who was killed and the judge were catholic. The judge attended daily Mass and served as a lectionary. It ts a very shocking time in Tucson for all residents. Our priest is the chaplin at the University hospital where the trauma center is that the people were taken. It is a shame that Tucson is being treated like Dallas when JFK was shot and by our own sheriff! This is a lovely “big small town” and it does have the problems of other cities but I’d rather live here than Phoenix any day.
