As an evangelical Anglican I endorse everything Dr. George said. His citing of one of my favorite hymns, The Old Rugged Cross brought tears to my eyes. Thank you.
Wow! One of the best speeches I have ever heard. I am not Catholic, for what that is worth. A great speech for all Christians to hear, and for those who often criticize Christians to hear the other side.
The church has failed to convince non-catholics and many of its own members that current dogma is the right way to live. Instead of reflecting on why their message has failed to find purchase, they would use state power and their own charitable (commercial) activities to force the compliance of those who disagree. The hostility they face is earned.
I shall continuously tweet this message to the world on twitter, 24/7 @CatholicsTweet Also feel free to receive occasionally Catholic Prayers daily on twitter with @911GOD I am committed to bear the pains of Discipleship starting, NOW. What is your commitment? Goodbye "Church of Nice", Hello True Catholicism!
