random thought of the moment:
The State which would provide everything, absorbing everything into itself, would ultimately become a mere bureaucracy incapable of guaranteeing the very thing which the suffering person – every person – needs: namely, loving personal concern. We do not need a State which regulates and controls everything, but a State which, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity, generously acknowledges and supports initiatives arising from the different social forces and combines spontaneity with closeness to those in need.

Jollyblogger has initiated the Carnival of the Reformation. The motto of the carnival is "Post Tenebras Lux". That's Latin for "After the Darkness, Light". I find it appropriate that it was posted today, All Saints Day. Yesterday was Reformation Sunday. Today, on the feast honoring the saints of the Church, let's shed light on the darkness of the Reformation. I encourage my Catholic readers to humbly and respectfully respond to the carnival's theme of sola scriptura.
