November 13, 1964: The Day the Tiara Was Tossed Out with the Bath Water

A fitting quote from Bishop Sheen in 1958: "It seems that the world itself, which says that old things can be left behind, can sometimes itself be left behind."

  2. Granted that it was Pope Paul VI's tiara, I tend to agree with you. A sign of things to come indeed.
