Sure Bill, Prescott for one. He is anti-Catholic, but even he recognizes the care that Father Olmedo showed for the Indians during the expedition of Cortez:

“No one partook more fully of the feelings above described than Hernan Cortes. He was, in truth, the very mirror of the times in which he lived, reflecting its motley characteristics, its speculative devotion, and practical licence,-but with an intensity all his own. He was greatly scandalised at the exhibition of the idolatrous practices of the people of Cozumel, though untainted, as it would seem, with human sacrifices. He endeavoured to persuade them to embrace a better faith, through the agency of two ecclesiastics who attended the expedition,-the licentiate Juan Diaz and Father Bartolome de Olmedo. The latter of these godly men afforded the rare example-rare in any age-of the union of fervent zeal with charity, while he beautifully illustrated in his own conduct the precepts which he taught. He remained with the army through the whole expedition, and by his wise and benevolent counsels was often enabled to mitigate the cruelties of the Conquerors, and to turn aside the edge of the sword from the unfortunate natives.”

Bannon, I see Mac describing a priest depicted in a Hollywood movie. Seems 1947 was prior to Hollywood’s conversion to anti-Catholicism, and gratituitous sex and violence.

I’m afraid your detraction of long-dead priests was an uncharitable and unnecessary reaction to a post on a movie and its music used as USC fight song.

Anyhow, the movie and the music are entertaining but lacking on any other level.

No Wait! That was FOX! ‘Nuff said.

Yes it was, and I thank you for catching it.
