random thought of the moment:
The truth is that the state must hide not only its wars but all of its activities. It hides its inflation. It hides the effects of its taxation and its protectionism. It fears anyone who draws the cause-and-effect connection between its activities and their deleterious consequences for the rest of us. It is the most destructive force in our world. Because that truth is so momentous, the state does everything possible to hide the smallest drop of blood.

The title of this post was the name of a TV show hosted by Archbishop Fulton Sheen. It was so popular that it got better ratings than Milton Berle. Sheen, so far as I can tell, was a very holy man and was responsible for leading a lot of people into the Church. There's apparently some momentum for starting his cause for canonization. I'm all for it.
