What is startling is the perpetual passion of anti-Catholicism. Youd think that by now people who reject Catholicism would calmly ignore its teachings as old and irrelevant superstitions. After all, the Church has none of her old political power, adherence is now totally voluntary, and she has enough trouble getting her own children to listen to her. But Catholicism still has a strange moral authority, and many people are unable to achieve a calm and assured disbelief. They are still driven to discredit the Church - perhaps for the same reason so many of us believe in her.
A gem from Joe Sobran.

I'm not quite certain why you've pinged me to this thread.
I really try to abstain from bickering about religion so please remove my name from your ping list. In the meantime, have a nice day!

Though this is not on this subject, a web site I frequent, and I have email on (www.catholic.org) changed its IP this weekend. So some people may have trouble accessing it. The new 66.122.14.30
Access seems to be okay today, but I had trouble yesterday getting into the site without using that IP.
