on the grounds of Notre Dame (Catholic!) University for protesting against abortion and the visit of Pro Partial Birth President Obama.
Is it me or has the world just turned upside down?
It breaks my heart that a supposedly Catholic institution should instruct law officers to carry off a frail old man who only wants to protect unborn life and protest that that same institution should see fit to honour someone who, despite undoubted other fine qualities, has such a depressing record of support for the destruction of innocent life.
Palpable evil is abroad it seems and speech seems no longer to be free...
Prayer, prayer and more prayer is needed:
Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle; be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray: and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
