The Catholic Left

Wandering this picturesque town in northern Poland my buddy Claudios a couple of weeks ago now. We passed a beautiful old mill and stream running through a part of the "old town" and he let me into the "meeting hall" that had been one of the epicenters of the Solidarity movement... a place where L. Walesa he often spoke.....a meetings that eventually tipped the scales of political power and collective will, changes that eventually became the fall of the Berlin wall and eastern European "comunism".

Never had seen or felt such a mix of church and grass-roots politics....a Catholic church no less.

Well, as they say, even a broken clock is right 2x/day.
