God's will be done and may He have mercy upon us all.

About Me

My photo
A Catholic who follows Rome & the Magisterium. I'm against gay "marriage", abortion, embryonic stem cell research, euthanasia, human cloning. Altar girls, Communion in the hand, Eucharistic Ministers and "Protestant" music in the Church doesn't bother me at all. A proud American retired submarine sailor. Our borders should be secured with a 10 ft. high fence topped by concertina wire with minefields out to 20 yards on both sides and an additional 10 yards filled with warning signs outside of that Let's get energy independent NOW! Back Israel to the max, stop appeasing followers of the Pedophile Prophet. Pro 2nd Amendment, pro death penalty, Repeal all hate crime legislation. Back the police unless you'd rather call a hippie when everything hits the fan. Get government out of dealing with education, childhood obesity and the enviornment. Stop using the military for sociological experiments and if we're in a war don't micromanage their every move. Kill your television, limit time on the computer and pick up a book. God's will be done and may He have mercy upon us all.

"Written by fools to be read by imbeciles."

If you do any surfing of the various blogs I'm sure you've seen this. Somebody call a "wha" bulance for this guy!

He totally neglects the effect blogs have had in insuring journalistic honesty. Just as an example, Dan Rather and his own "Memogate" fiasco comes to mind. IMHO the blogs are gaining notice by schlubs like this guy because they're becoming more of a force to be reckoned with. No, right now most are unpolished, unprofessional, partisan and shallow (unlike this fine thought provoking dissertation you're currently reading, right!) .

But when Guttenberg printed out the Bible the western world didn't suddenly wake up to a flood of fine literature. Dickens, Shakespeare, Twain, etc. would never have had their fame had it not been for old Gutty and his press. Yet the maturation of language and discourse that came about AS A DIRECT RESULT of readily available printed material and the attendant increased literacy took time to accomplish.

IMHO the same will be true of the internet. We're a bunch of clowns right now, finding our way with the brand new toy. The recognition and full utilization of it's potential is generations away. Just IMHO.

So for all us foolish imbeciles, ENJOY!!!
