My brief reflection. By the way, if you don’t know the meaning of realpolitik, please look it up. It is a critical word to understand, especially for us Christians:
I will be curious to see whether Scott Hahn, Robert George, Michael Novak, George Weigel, et al. have much to say about this.
The realpolitik of our world seems so wise, but I don’t see the prophets and Jesus imbibing in that approach.
