Prudence and Courage
“And the lord commended the unjust steward, forasmuch as he had done wisely: for the children of this world are wiser in their generation than the children of light.” Luke 16:8
Because the war against the culture of death must not resort to violence, we sometimes forget this basic fact of conflict: if we want to be good soldiers, we have to be willing to be casualties. If all the Christian doctors enter radiology and pathology, we might not get fired for defending the dignity of human life, but we won’t save many children either. If Henry Morgentaler was man enough to go to prison to make abortion available, and we’re too soft to put ourselves in harm’s way to end it, where does that put us in the eyes of God?

So I tried calling you the other day to wish you a Merry Christmas and all, but apparently you have a new number? Because some other people have your old one. I think the woman who answered thought her man was cheating on her, cuz she called me back to interrogate me about why I was calling, not believing it really was a wrong number. Oops? I think she believed me by the end, though. Being from a different country helped. Anyways. Maybe you should call me…?
