I never knew Michael Novak's brother was a priest who was murdered:
"Do
you know young people looking for causes that would give their lives
immeasurable value for the future? Before his violent death, young
Father Richard Novak, CSC, started a movement that desperately needs
the labors of a new generation.
My
younger brother was murdered at age twenty-eight in Bangladesh, in the
waning days of the 1964 Muslim/Hindu riots that left several thousand
dead. It was January 16, not quite two months after the murder of John
F. Kennedy in Dallas.
When the news was reported to Pope Paul VI, he exclaimed: “A martyr!”"
