If you have not seen the homily delivered by the Justice Antonin Scalia\u2019s son Reverend Paul D. Scalia, it is a beautiful tribute to his father and to the faith that was so important to him.<\/p>\n

His opening is\u00a0one of the most moving moments in the homily, putting the focus exactly where it should be:<\/p>\n

We are gathered here because of one man. A man known personally to many of us, known only by reputation to even more. A man loved by many, scorned by others. A man known for great controversy, and for great compassion. That man, of course, is Jesus of Nazareth.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
