“The
treatise on Patriotism in the writings of the greatest philosopher of all times,
St. Thomas Aquinas, is to be found under the subject of 'Piety'. This at first
may strike as strange those who think of piety as pertaining only to love of
God. But once it is remembered that love of neighbor is inseparable from love of
God, it is seen that love of our fellow citizens is a form of piety. In these
days when so many subversive activities are at work, a reminder of the necessity
of loving our country is very much to the point.” ~Ven. Fulton J.
