You're right though, although a lot of Catholics themselves would disagree with what Dr. Rice said- his standing up and defending the truth is laudable and something worth emulating. It's unfortunate that people write off the Church's wisdom and love by saying that it's 'antiquated and sexist' but hopefully with people like Dr. Rice who can defend the faith so articulately, the Truth will change hearts and minds.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16821662989278549597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9166176.post-80046779969075485172010-06-04T10:08:47.370-04:002010-06-04T10:08:47.370-04:00Dr. Rice was brave to give this address.

I'm willing to bet that there were no more than 10 people in the audience who agreed with him and that many of them walked away claiming that he soured their graduation ceremony with antequated, sexist views. He stood his ground, and the ground of the Catholic Church rather than speaking only about insignificant or popularly held views. And at a University that gave Obama an honorary degree last year and has largely lost its Catholic identity.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9166176.post-12234524174284814262010-06-04T09:15:43.028-04:002010-06-04T09:15:43.028-04:00Liesl - Are you named after the girl named Liesl i...Liesl - Are you named after the girl named Liesl in "The Sound of Music"?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9166176.post-32691730896369391582010-06-02T10:59:23.108-04:002010-06-02T10:59:23.108-04:00What a great commencement address!What a great commencement address!Lieslhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04568652187821916186noreply@blogger.com
