Holy fuck! This is a long one.
I haven't read it all yet but did notice an earlier bit:
"This is merely a sad commentary on the ignorance of newsmen, who seem not to know the noble role the Jesuits have always played in the history of higher education, or what the role her handmaiden science fills in relation to the Church."
Reading this mornings paper here in Wellington NZ, an article about Robert Mugabe - What makes a monster tick? - reveals that:
"He was raised by a fanatically Catholic mother who thought her son Robert had been chosen by God to lead the people. He attended a Jesuit school."
So much for catholic mothers and jesuits ..... they produce monsters. I rest my case!
