Fulton Sheen: America's Role as Sanctuary and Arsenal | A Historical Reflection

🌟 Bishop Fulton J. Sheen reflects on the United States' foundational role as a sanctuary for persecuted peoples and its subsequent role as an arsenal during world wars. He highlights the nation's history of providing refuge to those facing intolerance and compares it to the medieval practice of offering sanctuary to those seeking mercy. Sheen also underscores America's unique stance in global conflicts, where it fought not for territorial gain but to uplift the defeated. This inspiring message invites us to appreciate America's compassionate and altruistic legacy. #FultonSheen #AmericanHistory #Sanctuary #WorldWars #HistoricalReflection

He might have added that just about all of the foes that America has been in conflict with were dictators. The Kaiser, Hitler, Mussolini, Tojo, Kim II Sung, Fidel Castro, Ho Chi Min, Saddam Hussein and Muamer Gaddafi.

Look at that cursive. He even did it with a piece of chalk.

My family used to watch him on TV when I was a kid. We only got one channel. Lol. In fact I grew to like him.

[@larsgadell5016]

Well, at least it's still an arsenal...

[@audacity5911]

Guam?

[@speed_demon420]

We have the most military bases. We have land

[@TheMexlalo]

That is false

[@annerfrancis]

No new territory after the 2 World Wars? The US has numerous military bases around the world. Okinawa is nearly subsumed into one large base and the locals are not the least bit happy about it. Look at Germany, the Philippines...

[@jasonnolan9697]

So the US is foolish, got it.

Selfless, or at leasst we used to be.
