Good read,thanks
The author is an interesting guy - at least when I was in college in the 70s I think he was the only non-Catholic to ever obtain his PhD from Vatican University. His thesis was on how the Catholic church had been responsible for the change of the day of worship from Saturday to Sunday. Apparently they either agreed with him or his arguments were sufficiently good that they awarded him his degree. I've heard him speak a few times - very, very thick Italian accent, difficult to make out at times.
