He really does know a lot about Catholicism. Because of him, I read a lot about the Magisterium and Papal infallibility. When I commented that masturbation is as much a sin as homosexuality according to the Catholic Church, he did not disagree. I'm not Catholic, but I did try to find a Catholic...

That wasn't really the point I was trying to make, and I was talking historically. At any rate, Christianity certainly did gain much of its power over time through military action and violence and yet there is still a group that yearns to be victims. There are many examples of violence in...

By and large, Christianity is constantly shoved in our face. Because of all the special privileges granted religion it's only natural that Christian churches should be on every corner. Because our country is 80% or more Christian, its only natural that Christmas, Easter, and other holidays...

It's a good article, but it's really hard to see how to make this into a good discussion, for the simple reason that criticizing the group in question would simply feed their persecution complex. In psychology, we call these Axis II diagnoses, where the belief system is so integral to the person...

Sam did a brave and wonderful thing by coming out. By doing what he did, it makes it little easier for the tens of thousands of gay kids who love sports to be themselves.

Do you think the dominant running game was planned from the start of the season? I remember just before the season wondering if the Pats will get anywhere with a great QB but no great receivers. I did not understand why BB wasn't building more depth and bringing in some established talent. Then...

The only meaningful stat is the final score. Give Brady better receivers and a better line, and his stats would go up. How many drops did Dobson have this year? How about Hooman? Amendola has been good, but hasn't been able to get open like Welker. And Brady has not had as much time, but in the...

You can make a case that Brady is not the best on arm strength or mobility. But, on accuracy? With so many short receivers, Brady would be nothing if not for his accuracy. On pocket presence and awareness, he's one of the best ever. I don't think I've ever seen a QB make fewer bonehead...

This article is from October, but I did a search for this article in the forum and couldn't find it, so I hope it's not a duplicate. At any rate, for all of us who admire Bill, it's a good article that makes some interesting observations. Bill Belichick: Pure Football Genius | Psychology of...
