The forces of evil
concentrate their fire on the Vicar of Christ, who is the authoritative
interpreter of the moral law. We must respond with loyal defense of him and of
the Church. We are not, to borrow a phrase, the Church impotent. We are part of the Church Militant. Our job is to fight for the Truth. - (From Our Job is to Fight for the Truth by the late Dr. Charles E. Rice)
May the soul of Dr. Rice and the souls of all the faithfully departed through the mercy of God rest in peace! Amen

(Image source: Wikimedia Commons ) Fasting cleanses the soul, raises the mind, subjects one’s flesh to the spirit, renders the heart contrite and humble, scatters the clouds of concupiscence , quenches the fire of lust, and kindles the true light of chastity . (St. Augustine)
