LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Covington high schoolers were only guilty of defending their faith

TO THE EDITOR:

In the aftermath of the Covington Catholic High School incident, bigotry remains alive and well in this country. For many years now religion in general and Catholicism in particular have been under increasing attack by progressives. Perhaps that famous smile, or smirk if you will, was present on many young early Church martyrs when they were facing death for their Lord. To the progressive leftist, the only good Catholic is a bad one, and I may add, dumb as well. Why else would we continue to elect politicians who pass laws that are in opposition to what the Church teaches? Who believes that the Knights of Columbus is a subversive group and Catholic Dogma is suspect? We need more young people like those seen in that video who would stand up to hatred and bigotry. After all, we are the Church Militant, its time we start acting the part.
