Depending on where you come down politically everyone has an opinion about President Obama and his newly announced Nobel Peace Prize. Even the Vatican weighed in, courtesy Fr. Lombardi, with a fairly nice statement. And then many others weighed in with their concerns and opinions.
The pro-life movement is naturally enraged as another pro-choice, which equals pro abortion, politician receives this honor. But one thing is certain, all the screaming and hollering is not going to change this award or even change many hearts. We need to witness to who we are and what we believe. How so? Well, thank God for a previous Nobel peace prize winner. I give you below the acceptance speech of one Mother Theresa. Trust me she shoots straight but does so with love and compassion and most importantly, example.
