Steve left a comment on FB after I went to bed last night that I think we can put money on:

_“Tomorrow, the narrative that what happened in Paris has nothing to do with true Islam will be echoed by the global elites. Pope Francis will join them, failing, once again, to lead Catholics in the truth, and lending religious credibility to the great Islamic lie.

“This will also help to ensure that those Parisians, Frenchmen, Europeans, and others throughout the world will not look to Catholicism as the answer to the Islamic threat, because it is feckless, dishonest, and pathetic. Which means that they will instead turn to political zealotry, to a new fascism, to dangerous ideologies, hatred, and indiscriminate violence. They will fight not like true crusaders, but like desperate men, and desperate men do awful things.

“This could all have been prevented. Many have warned of what’s coming, myself among them. But self-delusion is an awful drug.”
