in a Catholic “weekly”, or some other way get into circulation, but need protection,
and hope while being victims of persecution which includes beheading, rape,
enslavement, torture, imprisonment while Catholics live comfortable lives
simply watching TV, and sipping on an alcoholic drink.
Secular media has a way of gagging the truths and letting things go,
and Catholics should be alert to the pain, disfigurement, unhappiness
of others, particularly in countries which do not worship as they do.
