Catholics, Protestants in Unity Week
The annual Week of Prayer for Christian Unity concluded on 25 January, the feast of the conversion of St. Paul.
The need for virtue
"Democracy and the market are not machines that can run themselves," according to public intellectual, George Weigel, from the Ethics and Public Policy Centre in Washington DC. "It takes a certain kind of people, who are living a certain set of virtues, to make democracy work. As we have seen in Europe recently, a deficit of democratic culture can be as dangerous to the future of societies as fiscal deficits."

Quote of the day on secularisation
"Faith is never a solitary activity nor can it be simply private. Some today propose that faith and reason are crudely opposed, with the fervour of faith replacing good reason. This reduction of both faith and reason inhibits not only our search for truth but also the possibility of real dialogue."
Most Rev Vincent Nichols, [Catholic] Archbishop of Birmingham
