Pardon me as I do a bit of housecleaning on this rainy day after the election here inside the Beltway.
So you want to be a "Catholic" priest?
Our own M.Z. Hemingway has had a lot of fun lately writing about the issue of who is and who is not a Roman Catholic priest. It’s pretty easy to become a “priest” if you really want to be one and you can write checks that do not bounce.
Has Colorado Springs' power peaked?
Last week, The Denver Post‘s Eric Gorski gave us the marching orders from Focus on the Family founder James Dobson. Then the Rev. Ted Haggard madness broke open and Dobson’s words to evangelicals were lost in an avalanche of news coverage.
