With the farce of the recent awarding of the Nobel Peace Prize in mind, I am reminded of our great Pontiffs who have been ignored or even scorned (in the case of Pope Pius XII) by the modern secular world and its elites. He strove for a more just (and potentially more lasting) peace to end the Great War, in opposition to those who were only interested in vengeance or liberal democractic utopian fantasy.
Benedict XV, pray for us!
