Happy Bastille Day! | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: Was it that bad for the Church to treat them as part of the corrupt system they supported?  I am sure it was bad for the hierarchy and that they certainly laid down on the job the following century in taking the Church to the people with joy.  The real tragedy is that the legend of the revolution is still lost on most of the hierarchy, who still own their benefices rather than transferring them to some kind of modern non-profit structure that can still be tapped for paying for the sins of the Clergy.  The whole free thinking thing is also still lost on the Church, including many of its apologists like MSW.  Until natural law and free thought are always part of the same sentence, Church based natural law is a fraud.  As for Le Marseillaise, it should ideally be played with The International.
