William O'Malley S.J.: More Balls Than Conservative Christians In The Aggregate

"As a priest for more than 40 years, I have yet to encounter the God who counsels, with certitude, pre-emptive slaughter in the name of peace. 
If President Bush's God is the real God, I'm not sure I want to go where God is." 
William J. O'Malley S.J. 

In the 1960s, Father O'Malley taught at McQuaid Jesuit High School in Rochester, New York, when I attended cross-town rival, Aquinas Institute.


My nephew Bill, now a physician at Mayo Clinic, was educated at McQuaid.
