Links for 11/19/15 | National Catholic Reporter

Links for 11/19/15 | National Catholic Reporter by MSW. MGB: On Warren's speech, sadly neither logic or emotion can reach through a heart afflicted with hate, fear and xenophobia.  People individually will moslty behave themselves, but they are dangerous in groups, especially on the right wing.  It used to be that, while our fellow citizens famously have great disdain for the constitutional, human and economic rights of their neighbors, people in the political class usually had a decent respect for them.  Of course,as Silk reports, now that we have real estate moguls and neurosurgeons sucking up all the oxygen, the lack of courage by those who should know better are afraid to speak out against the nonsense.  At least the Church gets the humanitarian part right - even though it misses some of the constitutional nuance on abortion and gay marriage.:
