Over on some other sites I am posting almost daily, largely short pieces about Catholic history. For example, today I posted:
On May 19, 1935, Pope Pius XI canonized Sir Thomas More and Cardinal John Fisher. King Henry VIII ordered the two men executed in 1535 for refusing to accept him as head of the Church of England.
Ss. Thomas More and John Fisher are now the patron saints of the Diocese of Rochester, N.Y. Cardinal Fisher was the Bishop of Rochester in England. He was the only Bishop not to give in to Henry. And More represented what a Catholic politician should do.

I will continue such Catholic posts. I want to try to promote the faith and not get caught up in pointless debates.
Pax et bonum
