Good to know. As Eric Sammons wrote in Crisis, it would be good for Catholics to stand up and defend him. I would hope the Pillar would have something constructive to say, perhaps along the lines of this:

Benedictine College Chairman Mike Kuckleman On Harrison Butker's Commencement Speech: “Our entire country is talking about faith and religion as a result of this speech Harrison Butker gave at Benedictine College. I'm excited to see the world now engaging and talking about faith and religion. I think it's a great thing we are doing that. I'm very proud of the college. This has put Atchison, Kansas and Benedictine College on the map in this way where they have the world talking about religion. We needed it. I just can't get my head around people saying he can't share these thoughts because they disagree with him and therefore he has to be silent. You don't have to agree with him. He's entitled to share them and work on bringing the rest of us to his belief system. There should be nothing wrong with that."

Well, that's kinda how "freedom of speech" works for the Left and MSM. We are free to say whatever we want as long as it supports their opinions. If anyone's speech opposes those opinions, off with his head.

I think that’s an unfair, untrue generalization.
