ROBERT JOHNSON
About this episode

 

Join us this week as we read a piece penned in 1950 about the apparent attack on the public education system by none other than--the Roman Catholic Church! What seems perhaps irrelevant and historical is timely and essential. I'll let you fill in the blanks! Then we read the latest from Brother Mark St. Cyr in his piece, which has been making all the waves on social media lately. All this and more! Thanks for listening, and have a great weekend!
