More on the Pope -- this piece in The American Spectator, titled "A Church, Not a Focus Group", is well worth reading. And then, for those who've heard nothing but the liberal critique of John Paul II (emanating mostly from the press), there's an article by Hugh Hewitt asserting that "there are far more Catholics worldwide pushing for the return of the [Tridentine Mass] than there are for a Vatican endorsement of abortion rights."

Interesting.
