Primacy of Truth over Power. St. Thomas More, Man for This Season - Living Faith - Home & Family - Catholic Online

Primacy of Truth over Power. St. Thomas More, Man for This Season - Living Faith - Home & Family - Catholic Online  

St. Thomas Moore has been canonized and 2010063133thomas_more_newest_2_insiderespected as the Saint for Statesmen and Politicians.Certainly it would be best to send a copy of this man’s great integrity to Nancy Pelosi and the other so-called Catholics there on Capital Hill. However, it is a good thing to even recognize the value of integrity in ones actions particularly as a politician and in fact I believe that it is the Catholic Church alone that has such a saint or a veneration for the truth in it’s entirety. Certainly a dedication to the falsehood of abortion, contraception and homosexuality is a testament of a nation willing to live with a lie for the sake of comfort and convenience. 

What is not recommended is to hand out little awards in the name of this great saint certainly that would not be in accordance with his actions. As of yet however there are politicians and clergy whom I would like to send a reminder of what this great saint did as a reminder to maintain their integrity. Along with St. Aloysius(Luigi) Gonzaga whom the clergy and devoted pray to for purity (whom I will dedicate a separate posting) St. Thomas Moore is portends that kind of statesman like quality that we have not seen in quite sometime. Certainly the president does not have his qualities with all of his back room deal making. (For more on that go to my political blog  Freedom From Democracy.
