“If you want your children to fight for their faith, send them to public school. If you want them to lose their faith, send them to Catholic school - Fulton sheen
Was this before Sheen embraced the Novus Ordo or after?

I'm still not seeing the part about excommunication.  Just curious about why Fr. Hewko made that particular statement.
He makes the statement around 7:55-8:05 in this sermon:

I suggest that you verify if and when Fulton Sheen said that, because it does not sound right, unless he repented on his deathbed.

He never said that.

It’s not any better, but this is what he said:

“I recommend that my relatives send their college-bound children to secular colleges where they will have to fight for their faith, rather than to Catholic colleges where it will be stolen from them.”
