On Six Reasons To Ignore The 'New York Times' Yoga Article

I also suspect that an article about "how eating Stouffer’s creamed chip beef and being married to a drunk asshole with orange hair causes strokes", to be A)believable and informative, and B)more worthwhile than most advice from the NYT..... One of y'all, git pitchin....

On Six Reasons To Ignore The 'New York Times' Yoga Article

This article made me so happy, mostly for the sanity and compassion pulsing through its humor. And I say that despite the fact that though I continue to try yoga, its hard for me not hate it, and I find it as difficult as the average person would find, say, pole vaulting. Thank you.

On The Cathovangelical: Rick Santorum's Quest for a National Abortion Showdown

@Bittersweet Oh, right, I'd forgotten that. Although with all those divorces, I'd be curious as to whether he went through the Kabuki dance of having them all officially anulled, and if he didn't he ain't a "real" Catholic...

On The Cathovangelical: Rick Santorum's Quest for a National Abortion Showdown

@Gef the Talking Mongoose I agree, and I have even some sympathy for the poor, purity-hunting evangelicals (okay, not much, just some...), as it seems so odd that there's not one non-crazy non-Mormon in the bunch. Maybe Gingrich...but you're in trouble if he's your sane guy. But then, I also enjoy referring to myself (a mostly lapsed Catholic) as part of "a particularly prolific formerly Jewish sect"...

And as Cherrispryte pointed out above, us Catholics maybe ought not throw stones at glass Mormon houses, either...

On The Cathovangelical: Rick Santorum's Quest for a National Abortion Showdown

And is Santorum really the first Cathovangelical? What about good old fascist Father Coughlin........

On The Cathovangelical: Rick Santorum's Quest for a National Abortion Showdown

Great stuff. Good its posted now,though, 'cuz I think that within 7 hours Rick S. will be well on his way to the footnote he should be, and "Santorum" will once again be a decidedly unproper noun. I mean, if a funny, smart, Protestant like Huckabee couldn't get close to the nomination, I don't think a dull, dullard, Catholic like Rick will. The NYT underestimates the anti-Catholic feeling of the southern Baptists; one of my exes from Tipton, GA was raised so evangelical her people didn't consider Catholics Christian at all...
