Yesterday morning’s Dennis Prager show had on as a guest Reverend
Doctor William J. Slattery (Ph.D in philosophy, with a specialization in
epistemology (the theory of cognition) at the Pontifical Gregorian University),
to promote his new book "Heroism and Genius”.
In it, he is promoting the great names of Church history,
and the heroism they exhibited in serving God and preserving and growing
Western Civilization, as a model for priests in today’s world engaging in the
fight for the preservation and elevation of Western Culture.
There’s even a chapter titled “Fathers of Chivalry: A New Type of Warrior”.
He also introduced
me to a fine quote:“No sadder proof can be given by a man of his own littleness than disbelief in great men.”
-Thomas Carlyle
I’ll be ordering this book immediately.
It does sound like a needed defense.
ReplyDeleteSounds like one I need to check out.
