Paul, I do SO enjoy your writings. Being a Roman Catholic myself, I supremely agree with what I just read.

Yes, this is a thorough argument. Wish I could hand it out at our parish. But you did not address the very concerning pro-life problems of the past month. Lila Rose wrote about her problems with Trump’s apparent casual IVF acceptance, including Vance’s clear statement that he supported Trump’s view of it. They clearly do not understand the full issue, yet LifeSite News site has been promoting this suicidal “conscience” position, with many clearly rejecting the idea, like Fr Ripperger suggested, of even voting for “lesser of two evils.” They would rather stay home and not vote than taint themselves with a less than perfect candidate, deluding themselves over the consequences of that. Whatever can be done NOW to persuade those Catholics?

You got Fordham exactly right with regard to the classics, and the 2 theology, 2 philosophy, and 1 either-or requirement for ALL graduates, regardless of major. Class of 1977, along with Denzel Washington and John Brennan. One of them was a hair-trigger-tempered America-hating misanthropic commie to whom students gave a wide berth to avoid his insanity. HINT: Not Denzel.
