About this listen
On Faith is an inspiring collection of the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia's reflections on his own faith, on the challenges that religious believers face in modern America, and on the religious freedoms protected by the Constitution. Featuring a personal introduction by Justice Scalia's son Father Paul Scalia, this volume will enrich every listener's understanding of the legendary justice.
Antonin Scalia reflected deeply on matters of religion and shared his insights with many audiences over the course of his remarkable career. As a Supreme Court justice for three decades, he vigorously defended the American constitutional tradition of allowing religion a prominent place in the public square. As a man of faith, he recognized the special challenges of living a distinctively religious life in modern America, and he inspired other believers to meet those challenges.
This volume contains Justice Scalia's incisive thoughts on these matters, laced with his characteristic wit. It includes outstanding speeches featured in Scalia Speaks and also draws from his Supreme Court opinions and his articles. In addition to the introduction by Fr. Scalia, other highlights include Fr. Scalia's beautiful homily at his father's funeral mass and reminiscences from various friends and law clerks whose lives were influenced by Antonin Scalia's faith.

Story
The quest for social justice is a powerful crusade of our time, with an appeal to many different people, for many different reasons. But those who use the same words do not always present the same meanings. Clarifying those meanings is the first step toward finding out what we agree on and disagree on. From there, it is largely a question of what the facts are. Social Justice Fallacies reveals how many things that are thought to be true simply cannot stand up to documented facts, which are often the opposite of what is widely believed.

Considered by Joseph Ratzinger devotees as his greatest work on the liturgy, this profound and beautifully written treatment of the "great prayer of the Church" will help listeners to deepen their understanding of the rites of the Church. The cardinal discusses fundamental misunderstandings of the Second Vatican Council's intentions for liturgical renewal, especially about the priest's orientation of prayer to the Father, the placement of the tabernacle in churches, and the posture of kneeling.

Story
When Clarence Thomas joined the Supreme Court in 1991, he found with dismay that it was interpreting a very different Constitution from the one the framers had written - the one that had established a federal government manned by the people's own elected representatives, charged with protecting citizens' inborn rights while leaving them free to work out their individual happiness themselves, in their families, communities, and states.

Black Americans have long been shackled to the Democrats. Seeing no viable alternative, they have watched liberal politicians take the Black vote for granted without pledging anything in return. In Blackout, Owens argues that this automatic allegiance is both illogical and unearned. She contends that the Democrat Party has a long history of racism and exposes the ideals that hinder the Black community’s ability to rise above poverty, live independent and successful lives, and be an active part of the American dream.

Justice Scalia was that rarest of man, a man comfortably secure in his faith and his role as father, husband, judge and sinner. God bless the law and faithful legacy he left for all of America.

Perfect Combination
I purchased the Audible version of this book to listen to on my morning walks. Christopher Scalia, the justice's son, reads like a professional narrator, keeping the listener engaged and never distracting us from the content . The collection of speeches and articles is interspersed with comments from Antonin Scalia's friends, colleagues,and family members. It all adds up to perfect combination that provides great insight into the man, into the Catholic faith, and into Antonin Scalia as a man of faith.

A powerful story
A tremendous example of mere Christianity from the respected and powerful supreme Court justice Antonin Scalia. One experiences a dissolution of imagined barriers of Christianity and a unity/respect towards Christians and non-Christians alike. Lessons to be gained from various walks of life, which ever one might be on.

Worth it just for the amazing funeral sermon preached by his son. Rich with moving autobiography, cutting wit, and scalpel-like argument. Love him like Ruth Bader Ginsburg (yes, they were dear friends) or hate him like most of her followers, you cannot fail to see what a mensch he was, on and off the bench.

Remarkable man
Having Ben and am a cradle Catholic who does his best to practice the faith that I grew up with.... in today’s world the ability to do what we did back in the fifties and sixties is sadly dwindling .... no longer are there daily Masses, especially those at the crack of dawn. This book made me realize with the effort of a man like justice Scalia it still is with us. we just have realize it’s worth to ourselves, our friends and neighbors and out country.... will probably read this book many things in the future....
Thanks
