I don't know how Fr. Sirico managed to pack so much into this little article, but judge for yourself: http://detnews.com/article/20100629/OPINION03/6290331/Don-t-devalue-Christian-heritage.
His point is that tolerance and freedom of religion (NOT the nouveau-freedom-of-worship the Obama Administration is shopping around in the press right now) is our inheritance from Christianity, and we shouldn't be so quick to reject this heritage. We don't get things like sovereignty and personal rights from government; we get them from God.
Take a look at his short column, and see what you think.
Acknowledging the perfect joy of suffering in Christ, but having a little fun along the way.
