A Mormon President of a secular university says that you cannot trust the damned Catholics. And is being publicly rebuked. What is up with the Big Ten at the moment? Notre Dame is a heretical hotbed of very not-Catholics.

Soccer hooligans, anyone?

Some Scottish Catholics have suggested that doing the "Hokey Pokey"-- or "Hokey Cokey," as it is sung in Great Britain-- should be banned as an expression of anti-Catholic prejudice. A spokesman for Cardinal Keith O'Brien of Edinburgh alluded to the "disturbing origins" of the children's song, which includes a parody of the words of consecration from the Latin Mass.
-- from the thread Party song seen as having anti-Catholic overtones [The "Hokey-Pokey" - that's what it's all about!)
