John Joseph Keane

John Joseph Keane (12 September 1839 – 22 June 1918) was an Irish prelate of the Catholic Church who served as the bishop of the Diocese of Richmond and as the archbishop of the Archdiocese of Dubuque. Quotes Our Lord Jesus Christ sent forth His Church to electrify the world and to startle the old Caesarism by proclaiming the dignity and the inalienable rights of every human being — dignity and rights based, not on the power and glory of empire, but on the immortality of the individual soul and its relation to the Infinite and Eternal God. The proclamation was a battle-cry.
