KISS: "Keep it -simple, stupid."

The nun crisis

“Sisters of Perpetual Liberation”

"Bishop" Schorri

In one New York Times interview she said Catholics had more children than Episcopalians because Catholics were “less educated”

Radicalism

Many a religious radical started out as a political radical (someone has got to employ all of those radicals leaving graduate school with unemployable majors.)

Mr. Obama

Obama has seemed prickly and generally in a bad mood. He looks, increasingly, like a man who wishes it would all just go away.

Imposed suicide

Until a new movement arises in which mothers are offered as human sacrifices from economic motives and then not killing your mother becomes a 'dogma' or the creed of cryptic priests.
[GKC ILNA 1 Jan 1927]

Democrats

The Democrats have no natural majority because they have no fundamental principles -- at least none that they are willing to state out loud. They are like a drunken vagrant who emerges from the alley to cause havoc every few years. They are the perpetual toothache of American politics. [A. Coulter]

Repub/Dem seesaw

As a result, for the past four decades, American politics has consisted of Republicans controlling Washington for eight to 14 years -- either from the White House or Capitol Hill -- thus allowing Americans to forget what it was they didn't like about Democrats, whom they then carelessly vote back in. The Democrats immediately remind Americans what they didn't like about Democrats, and their power is revoked at the voters' first possible opportunity. [Ann Coulter]

College life

Keep sending your kids to study liberal arts! It's a great choice! They will leave college with an arsenal of words and theories, ready to deride the world. Their insights will set them eons ahead of everyone else, making them virtual, undiscovered geniuses. Amongst their career pursuits will be: 1) college professor (a booming field), 2) blogger (an extremely lucrative pursuit), or 3) not really sure but I'll work at McDonald's if I have to. Nevermind the debt burden. $50,000 is a small price to pay to be one step behind Huang Chu, the Taiwanese Computer Science student who qualified for US degree equivalency on a C average. After all, your college grad will be able to wrack up the dough, skimping on unnecessary things like health insurance, dentist visits, and principle payments. They'll be well rounded, able to understand the New York Times and NPR better than everyone else, and most importantly willing to live with Mom and Dad well into their 40's. So, sign them up today! Job opportunities are abundant for those who put off responsibility for as long as possible and come out the other end with no real world skills.

Eco bores

He has daringly criticised what he calls his girlfriend's "high priestess phase".

Campion award to Rowan Willaims

Many will take offense at the sly malice of the Jesuits in pretending to congratulate the man who, by his elegant unfitness for the job, has done more than any living Christian to bolster the esteem of the Roman Catholic Church in the eyes of his co-religionists.

ACLU

Anti-Christian Litigation Union

Justice Ginsburg

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said she thought the landmark Roe v. Wade decision on abortion was predicated on the Supreme Court majority's desire to diminish “populations that we don’t want to have too many of.”

Kissinger

"The nice thing about being a celebrity is that if you bore people they think it's their fault."
~Henry Kissinger.

Kennedys

Or perhaps it will be a reminder that in the past, voters once inadvertently elected an assembly-line worker named John Kennedy to be state treasurer.

Church of England

the Church of England has morphed into, a left wing pressure group with prayers,

ND & football

So a droll University of Oklahoma president was not quite kidding when he said, "We're trying to build a university our football team can be proud of." The wit who said football has about as much to do with education as bullfighting has to do with agriculture was more amusing than accurate.

Mary Daly

Dr. Daly dismissed college officials as "bore-ocrats" who suffered from "academentia" and "predictably reacted with 'misterical' behavior" -

Haugland

Mr. Haugland was not a fan. He particularly objected to the word “heroes” in the title. “I never use that word about myself or my friends,” he told BBC4 Radio in 2003. “We just did a job.” Referring to the glider crashes and the killing of the survivors, he added: “Forty-one men were killed, and it could have been avoided. Because of the loss of life, you shouldn’t glorify the story.”

Obama

"I think Obama's 'charisma' was based on voter narcissism—people excited not just about electing a black president, but about themselves, voting for a black president.

Committees

‘God so loved that world that He didn’t send a committee.’
