“Father, I’m reading the article; it’s excellent and thanks for it! I am thinking that Tyler Robinson needs spiritual support right now. I know that is almost scandalous, but it’s a reality. Is there anything you could do to see to it?”
Sean Molloy wrote:
“Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. “Blessed are you when men revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so men persecuted the prophets who were before you. Matthew 5:10-12.”
Darryn Appleton said:
“Thank you Bishop Barron. This puts into words very nicely why this, among all the other recent awful events, has been so unsettling and upsetting.”
Danica Macanga reacted:
“Terrorists reach for guns and insidiously kill their targets in order to silence them. Insidious killings to silence targets captures reality, when conversation is seen as a threat, violence becomes the weapon of choice.”
JanCookLive added:
“Charlie’s death, absolutely tragic and senseless, will bring exponentially more people to know Christ. It’s already happening. People are returning to church services worldwide. What was intended to silence him is actually having the opposite effect.”
