\"U.S.<\/a>My latest blog post <\/a>at National Catholic Register compares Justice Antonin Scalia to Don Quixote and says we need more like him\u2026<\/p>\n

\n
Addressing the Knights of Columbus, Justice Antonin Scalia said, \u201cGod assumed from the beginning that the wise of the world would view Christians as fools \u2026If I have brought any message today, it is this: Have the courage to have your wisdom regarded as stupidity\u2026Be fools for Christ. And have the courage to suffer the contempt of the sophisticated world.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Scalia himself was a scamp, a mischievous intellectual who saw the truth and declared it clearly. He was a kind of Don Quixote of the Supreme Court\u2014ready to be a fool for Christ\u2014to tilt at the windmills of secular idiocy and risk being trounced for the truth and bearing a beating for beauty.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u00a0What is required for the New Evangelization of the West? A few more fools for Christ.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We are in a situation which the church has never had to face\u2026<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
