LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

In response to some of the shock-awe-coverage of Cardinal Dolan being a fan of Dorothy Day, John Hirsch, an English professor at Georgetown, writes: “it is a religious, not only political, vision that moved her, and it is that which effectively set her apart from a purely political agenda, and engages us still today.”

Thank you, Professor Hirsch.

(My previous rant on the topic here.)

Somethings are bigger than politics. Even politics.
