Entry: Libertarians in Heaven Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/blessed_libertarian#13437 Post contents: Much food for thought in the comments here. Let me organize my response by Popes. P-9: I didn't mean to badmouth him, honest. But his treatment of Rosmini was pretty klutzy, almost embarrassed. He shouldn't have been so humble before this Antonelli fellow, not only in relation to President Davis. P-12: No, not a Rosminian, but still one who stood for the dignity of the human person in an exemplary manner, and one who wanted very much to share the riches of the Liturgy with the whole Church, even the whole world. Rosminian themes, and the indirect fruit of Rosmini's influence. JP-2: I had to say the Great, at least as the world goes. I find myself bending over backwards to say good things about him because I found his style so profoundly uncongenial. It was during his reign that I left the Roman Catholic Church, with the written permission of the Cardinal Archbishop of New York, given under the authority of the Holy See. B-16: A man who would be generally acknowledged as one of the world class philosophers of the last century if he had not specialized in theology. A man who, like Aquinas, has the discernment to acknowledge generously those things in secular culture which are consonant with the faith without losing sight of the core of it. Our children and their children will be grateful to his memory beyond what we can imagine now. Sent at: 2008 10 06
