I think Envoy is a pretty good magazine, actually. Hardly a mouthpiece for the liturgical dance/communion-in-the-hoof crowd, Envoy is fiercely loyal to Pope and Magisterium. It has well-written articles detailing the pernicious effects of altar girls, clown masses, and similar con/trad bugaboos.What is doesn't have is a corncob stuck firmly up its ass -- which I guess is the same as being "modernist" according to this author. "Oh my God... bellybuttons! In a Catholic magazine!"

This guy needs to switch to decaf. One can be wholeheartedly devoted to reverent and liturgically-sound worship and faithful to Tradition without being a humorless grouch about it. The author here seems to be just one more proponent of Catholicism With a Sour Face.

Not Catholicism with a sour face--I'd just settle for Catholicism.
