Beautiful sculpture
Re: Jesus 2020: A clay model for our times (April 26):
Thank you Timothy Schmalz for the most incredibly beautiful sculpture I have ever seen. I was physically and emotionally moved, as I turned to Page 6 in The Catholic Register and saw how you captured our Most Holy Lord in such beautiful movement.

Smear campaign
Re: Don’t Judge Pius XII yet, expert warns (May 10):
If ever there was a smear campaign, the one against Pope Pius XII is one for the history books. Having studied his pontificate, I am convinced that the campaign against him has done considerable damage against a man who was acclaimed in the late 1940s-early ’50s by so many Jews, including the Jewish State of Israel, as a hero for all he did during the Second World War.

Profound impact
I spent Grade 9 to 12 attending a small Anglican school in Toronto. Probably like many young people forced to attend church, I graduated with a disdain for organized religion.

Devil’s virus
One of The Catholic Register’s youth writers suggested another name for the virus beast. But how about Devil’s Virus for one or, even better, Psalm19 for another.

Long-term pain
Re: A chance for change in post-virus world (March 29):
This article hits many truths. Too many people have wanted too much too fast — expensive cars and houses, for example.

Responding to crisis
COVID-19 is a terrible disease that is causing many to become ill and some to die. It is devastating the economies of the world. However, it is in times of crisis that one can truly observe the character of individuals and organizations.

The big picture
Re: Trump attack (Letters to Editor, March 15):
In response to Deacon Jurenas’ praise of Donald Trump I would like to say that Trump observes the First Commandment very well in public, but in private he wants to be worshipped and he worships money.
