You know, not too awful long ago the Catholic Church was the media's darling in their war against Fundamentalist Protestantism. You know, Catholics are the "good" chr*stians. They're intellectual, they're historically victims of ethnic prejudice, they don't interpret the Bible literally, and they believe in evolution. And some Catholics absolutely ate it up.

How does it feel to be on the receiving end?

I remember that coverage.

It lauded the types of Catholics that Catholic FReepers despise ("Cafeteria Catholics") (You know the type: heavy on social justice; light on doctrine; birth control: OK, after all, it should be your conscience that decides; abortion: not for me, but I don't want to impose...you know, the "good" Catholics)

Typical day.

I always figure that the devil wouldn't bother if we weren't doing something right.
