Glowing Review

If you read On the Square with any regularity (which I am sure you do) you are probably familiar with the thoughtful and instructive writings of Denver’s Bishop Charles Chaput . This past Tuesday saw the release of the Bishop’s new book, Render Unto Caesar , which tackles the ever-topical question of how Catholics are to exercise political agency, particularly in a pluralistic, liberal democratic state like the United States.  Fr. Robert Imbelli (an Associate Professor of Theology at Boston College) has written a thorough review of the book for L’Osservatore Romano . His verdict is wholly positive. He judges the book a signal contribution to a most important debate, and urges Catholics and non-Catholics, Americans and non-Americans, to carefully consider and discuss its arguments and analyses.
