AM New York: Marie Torre interviews Fulton J. Sheen (1979, WABC)

Marie Torre shares segments of an interview she did with Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen in 1979, not long before his passing. There is also a special on my channel which shares longer excerpts from that interview which aired after his passing.

I was fortunate enough to be able to visit St. Mary's in Peoria Illinois over the weekend. Archbishop Sheen's burial site is located there. I would recommend any Catholic to visit at some point.

11:01 “We try to make the intensity of a sex experience atone for a want of a purpose in life”. - Bishop Fulton Sheen Everybody needs to hear this, especially young people.

I love this man and I never met him. Was born many years after his death. Feels like Heaven is talking to you.

We need more hierarchy as holy Bishop Fulton J Sheen that follow the Holy Catholic Church teachings in regard to the Holy Bible and the Catechism of the Catholic Church.

///////////// just an observation: his oratory skill is one that is lost today. And his extemporaneous way of answering sounds like everything is well-polished & thoroughly thought-out, as if he rehearsed his responses a million times. It's because he knows his craft at such an intimate level that the answers come easy, as if he already knew the questions on the test. Finally, listening to him speak on any subject, even if it's a conversation he is having with someone, sounds like a finely written sermon. SOMEHOW, we need to put his full body of work back onto the popular stage for everyone to be able to hear. Perhaps finishing the canonization process would help.

Though I’m not religious, I plan to work on something to make his name known again. :)

Venerable Fulton Sheen, Pray for Us

[@Artty-fl8ul]

I wish I could have a conversation with him.

[@thedon978]

Where are the clear thinking, clear talking bishops today? Where?

[@Tiredofitall.]

Now compare what we have today as religious leaders.... now weep for what we no longer have!

Bishop Barron is quite good, Cardinal Sarah also. Just off the top of my head
