Well... he has a point...

The only problem is, and it is arguably the fundamental dilemma of our country, is not that we have power of our own sake. For as Our Lord taught us, "You would have no power over me, unless it was given to you from above." In fact, what seems to sound so good in the above video should cause some disturbance to us as Catholics. Not because we are not citizens or something like that, rather Thomas Paine was himself a Freemason, who inherently was also led to reject the Catholic Church and her teachings. Although we live in a country in which we are encouraged to be very patriotic, we must remember that, as Catholics, we have a more important citizenship - and it is NOT to the VATICAN ITSELF, but to HEAVEN!!! We are already citizens of Heaven and citizens of the United States, but we must never let the latter overtake or usurp our need to live out our citizenship to the Kingdom of Jesus Christ.
