Sadly, No! (Free subscription) | 07/22/2008

Surprise, surprise! Mark A. Kleiman still doesn’t understand the difference between civility and decency.

Mark Shea’s Blasts on PZ

Nothing (Free subscription) | 07/17/2008

Oh my. Lovely. You get the feeling that they are genuinely surprised to find that Catholics are attaching far more importance to the descration of the Eucharist than, say, the desecration of a Rosary.
