Dear Joan,

Super example - I am going to write more tomorrow but just wanted to you know I liked your reply.  It is nice to see that when replying to hot button topics today such as abortion or same sex marriage from a Catholic newspaper that Catholics talk about God and His Will and not keep Him out of the arena/conversation. Jesus swam against the tide of popular opinion in His time and if we choose to follow Him, it requires picking up our daily crosses (which can mean refusing to follow public opinion when it goes against pleasing God / when it goes against God's Order.  Thanks again, Joan and more tomorrow.
