Deep Conversation meme

I found this over at the Rome of the West blogspot. Not many pub conversations in my list.

  • Saints
    Philip Neri
    Francis Xavier
    Thomas More
    Ignatius Loyola
  • To be Canonized
    Marcel Lefebvre (... in a few hundred years maybe!).
    John Henry Cardinal Newman
    John XXIII ( to ask, did you really say 'Stop the Council! Stop the Council!'?)
  • British Heroes
    Henry V
    Guy Fawkes ( Kidding, I think!).
    John Fisher
    Churchill, after the first Pol Roger of the day.
  • Authors/Writers
    Graham Greene & Evelyn Waugh, together.
    Auberon Waugh & Mark Steyn, again together.
    Augustine & Plato together (heavy...).
  • Celebrities
    Pope Benedict XVI ( When are we going to get the indult?) Bush 43, maybe with Vlad Putin.

Lefebvre! Although some do say that he was the new Athanasius, who as we know, was "against the world", and won!

Indeed, Lefebvre. I'm convinced of it.

St Marcel, Bishop & Confessor, commemoration March 25th.

I don't know about yoking Waugh with Greene though...
