He was an excellent model of how we must put God first and follow Him no matter what the world says. I pray that through his intercession, Europe may return to Christ.
St. Thomas More has been one of my favorite saints for some time. At least since I came back to the Church in 2001. I even used to attend Mass at a Church named after him (back in 1987)in Lynnwood Washington and I knew nothing about him until 2oo1. Everything in it's time I guess.
Ever watch the movie "A Man for all Seasons" it is about St. Thomas More. Watch the Academy award winning version and not the one with Charlton Heston.
