Bully for Sheen!

From the "Bishops Who Bish" files: an eyewitness tells the story of Bishop Fulton J. Sheen versus a denizen of the Age of Aquarius.  It won't spoil the story if I tell you the outcome, because it is self-evident; Sheen - 1; Aquarius - 0.  Something to think about for those who, forgetting that the gifts of the Spirit are many, can't bear a forceful presentation, even in the face of an assault on the Faith.

  1. Saw the video earlier today. I really would have liked to have seen that encounter. Seems also reason why RCTV was down over weekend was due to server overload of users - a good sign in an indirect way.

    One of my favourite Sheen stories: the little girl with the white rose (in his autobiography, A Treasure in Clay)

  5. @Anita: A very short one evidencing how a towering faith made something impossible a reality. Won't say specifics and ruin it for you. Likely, you'll read his bio some day.

  6. Yep, I probably will. Meanwhile, I'll just have to content myself with this little Sheen gem. May not be as inspiring, but it is awfully funny.
