Thanks for the post. Are there still reruns of his TV shows on EWTN?

Another fun fact:

He was from El Paso, IL in Woodford county, perhaps the most conservative, yet most historical county in Illinois.

Abe Lincoln practiced law in the town of Metamora and Eureka is where Ronald Reagan attended college and where he gave his famous START Treaty speech.

Why did the fbi have a file on this man to begin with? A waste of fbi time and money.

I believe he said listening to the confessions of nuns was like
“being pelted with popcorn.” Now there, is a witty man (of God).

Would he approve of this guy? Or perhaps the shirt is a bit too loud.

As a paperboy for the Rochester Democrat & Chronicle, I would hear snatches of Bp. Sheen's voice playing on my customers' radios or TVs while I was out collecting from door to door on Fridays and Saturdays. That, or the monotonous repetition of the Rosary on other programs.

Brings back lots of nostalgic memories of the early 1950s. I was a conservative without knowing it even then -- having no concept, as a small-town kid, of any other way of thinking or living -- doggone!

Awesome line!

Thanks for this post and for the ping. Why won’t Cardinal Dolan allow the investigation into Abp Sheen’s cause for Sainthood to continue?
