Fr Ray has drawn attention to the address that John Henry Newman gave as he received notice of his being raised to the honour of the Cardinalate: Liberalism and England. The full text can be found here, but Fr Ray has added emphasis to some of the more striking parts in his post.

As Fr Ray points out, it could be Pope Benedict. It all paints a picture of our country that is very familiar to us today.
