Yes, I listened to part of it today, and I think I had heard the entire recording a few years ago. If I find the text in another medium, I can post a link to that as well. I found what Professor Howell had to say quite compelling. If memory serves, he also spoke about redemptive suffering on The Journey Home or another EWTN show. I will see what I can find on that, too.
Time to put my hair shirt back on (and pray!) ... :)
Amen!
With all due respect, this should have been posted on the News/Activism Forum. This is a topic that deals with our freedoms in this country and is not just a religious issue. I’d be willing to post it on the News/Activism Forum for those who want to comment on it without grappling with the RF guidelines.Unless metmom has had an important conversion, she does not belong on a Catholic Caucus thread. Is there a newbie at the RM helm today?
Here's a picture of the church, however, as oftentimes is true, it does not do it proper justice. At both sides are the most amazing stained glass windows throughout the church. If you click the picture, you will be brought to their site. The photo on their masthead is nicer.
How beautiful it is — thank you for posting this.
It appears that the persecution of Catholics and Christians who teach the moral truths is alive and well! Sad, isn’t it?
Metmom, you are not generous via your words toward the Catholic Church (or its teachings) and you do not belong on a Catholic Caucus thread unless Free Republic is no longer honoring them as defined.
This is a caucus thread. Do not post on this thread again.
Yes, it is sad. But we win in the end!!
Thanks for your input. I had just put up an Ecumenical thread before this one regarding the occult and it wasn’t going well. So I decided to keep with the Catholic Caucus designation on the firing of Professor Howell.
It adds a lot to the story, that you know the people involved. I am going to add the professor to my prayer list, it sounds as though one vicious student has succeeded in causing harm to the entire program.
I don't know who posted these posts, but obviously they were removed. So, it would appear if the offending party was the same person then that individual would be booted off FR.
Maybe I am mistaken.

So it seems to me that this offending person (if it was the same person, has been booted from FR. Hmmmm.
My thread looks scourged, just like Professor Howell. Thanks for the Catholic support, Salvation!
Don’t feel bad about your thread. It’s good, though, to keep a close watch on the Caucus threads.
Please note. This is a Catholic Caucus thread.It would be CONSIDERABLY more effective if you provided a link to whatever this means.
