I was not afraid of the press or the militants. It was uncomfortable but I was not afraid. With respect to the press I knew I knew more than they knew about city matters. With respect to the militants I understood it. I mean everybody believed in those days that they were being screwed you know that somebody was getting ahead of them.
We show deference to the civil authorities when they respect the divine origin of their power and when they serve the people with objective reference to the law of God.
