I've often thought MLK would be in total disagreement over all Obama stands for.

If what Archbishop Chaput wrote about him makes Martin Luther King, Jr., as a person of convictions and of courage, then I would definitely agree with you.

For the same reason MLK Jr. went to Birmingham and was put in jail, he would oppose Obama.

That is why Thomas More is so important in history.

He was a person of conviction. If King Henry VIII could get him to acknowledge his divorce, then the King did not need the Vatican support.

Thomas More never caved in, and was brutally killed for his conviction. And King Henry VIII was forced to found the Church of England.
