I take this with a grain of salt since it is CBS...but have noted several times that Mr. O’Reilly does not seem to know the teaching of the Church very well.
If he really believes that Jesus did not ask the Father to forgive those who were responsible for His crucifixion (all of us actually), and he believes that the Holy Spirit inspired this, he is deceived and needs to see his Confessor and learn something about discernment.
Pray for the guy.
The man’s own words can’t be fabricated by CBS.
O’Reilly is unwatchable for me. I do hope what he says is true, that his faith was deepened a little, by writing this book in a secular fashion, because you are correct that he is hardly a student of his own faith, proving it on numerous occasions.
Sean Hannity isn’t well informed either. East Coast catechesis must be paper thin.
