Another good Montini column

Munsil said the gathering was about "love" and not about "condemnation." Many in the crowd applauded. If the rally had been about honesty, however, he wouldn't have said such a thing, for the air was thick with condemnation. Fliers being handed out urged participants to call their elected officials and "tell them you want marriage preserved as between one man and one woman! Tell them the courts have NO right to override the will of the people." Participants had been encouraged to wear white as a symbol of the purity of marriage between one man and one woman. Children from church schools were bused to the plaza to join in the festivities.

Most of them, being kids, seemed disinterested or even confused. And why not?

I love this guy's columns. Instead of being political, he writes from a human and moral ground that I think is severly lacking in today's media.

1. Montini is one of the best
and one of the most under-rated.
