The Reformation Is Over

|
For days I was planning a post on the odd and intriguing story of Br. Roger of Taize's coming into full communion with Rome. I was going to connect it to this story from last year, about a book by Protestant author Mark Noll which argues that all the reasons for Protest might be over (I haven't read it yet; I think that's what it argues). But then all over the net I saw Muslim radicals bombing or threatening not just the Pope, not just Catholics, but any old Christians --shooting an elderly nun in the back in Somalia, threatening the Pope outside Westminster Cathedral, firebombing Orthodox and Anglican Churches in the Holy Land --and I realized our dream has come true: now all Christians are united under the Pope!
