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.

William J. O'Malley S.J.

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