On the occasion of his 90th birthday, Giulio Andreotti, who is perhaps the best known Italian statesman in the world, has been perfectly described as a Catholic who is Catholic even before he is a Catholic politician. I met the distinguished gentleman in my years of post-graduate studies in Rome. He was very well informed about Malta.
Senator Andreotti's lifetime of loyalty to the Catholic Church calls to mind Pope Benedict XVI's recent call for a new generation of Catholic politicians who "would be coherent with their professed faith", morally upright, professional and passionate about serving the common good.
