Opposition to Black icon at Catholic University ignores Christ's universality
YAF is for people who do not like College Republicans. They are a barometer for what privileged White kids think. So is the student body at CUA (where I stayed while an intern in Roger Jepsen's office - I had also been a CR). Sadly (or maybe gladly), they do reflect the biases of upper class Catholics, whose opinions are more cultural than Catholic. Universality in the Church is an ideal, not a practice or its history. We are good at finding Christ in ourselves. Finding the humility of Christ is hard. In the entire Godhead, much hearder, yet that is what we must do - by finding it in others.
