We are all toiling in the shadow of St. John Henry Newman
Newman was a part of the Kingdom of God on Earth as our Lord preached it, not something that must wait for the next life. This was the world of Chesterton and Tolkien.
They all give too much credit to the Oxidental Church, but fit into the Church of Leo rather than Bl. Pius IX and St. Pius X, who could not hold a candle to St. John. I still find Andrew Sullivan's comments interesting. This puts St. John more in line with Francis and those after him.
