That’s great news. His canonization is long overdue IMHO. The Newman centers on every college campus testify to his great influence.

Reading Cardinal Newman’s book Apologia Pro Vita Sua helped bring me into the Catholic Church, so I welcome this announcement. He was a great defender of the truth of our faith.

I may try to read that again. I tried when I was about 16 and got 3 pages in and quit. It seemed to me at that age like a great belaboring of the obvious. Perhaps I will appreciate it more as an adult.
I still think Newman is a great guy.

I read it the first time when I was 30 and it was not an easy read for me either, so I understand. But it’s well worth the effort, so I would definitely recommend you give it another shot.
