Catholic Carnival, Where Art Thou?

September 29th, 2004 by Funky Dung

Why is there no Catholic carnival? Jollyblogger, a nice guy and a good blogger, is organizing a Carnival of the Reformation. We need a Carnival of the Counter-reformation! I don't mean that in a spiteful "me too" way. Carnivals are an excellent way to share ideas and promote blogs.

From what I've seen in the blogosphere, the Protestants are beating the pants off us. We're fewer in number. We spend more time knocking each other or the Church than defending the Faith. We are barely computer literate, and in some cases borderline luddite. Where has "the new evangelization" JP2 called for gone? Apparently not very far.

On an unrelated note, I'm amused that your Amazon banner has an advertisement for "Constantine's Sword", one of the more even-handed judgments on the Church's responsibility for anti-Semitism.
