I'm disappointed that any walked out - but the fact that he received a hearty ovation is wonderful

Recall Francis Cardinal Arrinze's commencement address at Georgetown! TRUE Catholic doctrine is difficult for some to digest, much less embrace. That is why so many parish priests avoid 'sensitive' topics like marriage & divorce, and contraception & abortion. Don't want to reduce the weekly collection ... er, I mean the weekly attendance ;-)

The true hero in this story is the pastor who allowed him to speak. He deserves a letter of support!

**there are 4,400 abortions in this country every 24-hour period. That's more than [died in] the World Trade Center every single day.?

We need to have these numbers on the tips of our tongues to rebuff any remarks by non-Christians about pro-choice!!!
