What to do when a Saint is racist? Imitate the saints.

This is a wonderful treatment of the way in which our ancestors in the Faith recognized the racial realities and political necessities of the world to which today so many eyes are blind and ears are deaf.

Contrary to what this cretin in America Magazine has to say, S. John's mysticism and theology is inextricably linked to his call to eliminate Judaism and drive the gypsies from Spain.

We must hearken to the wisdom of the saints and take them whole - not just the dainties the delicacy of modernity finds palatable.

S. John of the Cross, hammer of the Jews, mystic of the transcendent God, pray for us!
