This week on A Podcast About Catholic Things, Eric and Dan discuss the legendary Saint Joan of Arc. Her name is often used as an example of feminism, but her role in the French army was not as a woman fighting for equal rights--she was a chaste girl following the orders of God. Her heroic measures ensured the survival of France as a nation, separate from her European neighbors, with strong borders that would survive for centuries.
The intervention God provided may well have protected France from the coming heresies and Catholic persecutions. During this period of history, God seems to have a fondness for the French, and we can see His providence throughout the evolution of France as a nation… possibly the same sort of providence seen in early American history, indicating God's will that US borders remain strong and intact. Eric brings up past podcasts and rehashes the subject of statues of confederate generals and their removal from the public square.
