Speaking of posts
for the week, this is Sunday Snippets, a Catholic Carnival, in which some of us
Catholic bloggers assemble under the gracious auspices of our hostess RAnn at This That and the Other Thing

Summertime, and bloggin’ ain’t easy, as the Gershwins might say.

Wednesday - Has anyone
accused you of being a religious fanatic and a would-be tyrant lately? Trust me, they have “Abortion Myth #15” [here]

schooling, sparked by another post by our own RAnn, in which we discuss the
fact that we do not simply process information, but are formed by our
experiences (there it is again!): “Apologia for Catholic Education [here]
Finally, third time pays for all, as Bilbo Baggins says; we’ll
give Mozart the last word, so to speak, on this feast of Corpus Christi:
