Two From John Zmirak

  • He notes that "the Catholic Church has plummeted from the heights of respectability it attained in the 1950s as part of the Cold War coalition to the status of a second-rate, vaguely disreputable cult—maybe one perch higher than peyote-smoking Indians and wistful, polygamous Mormons, but several notches lower than same-sex couples, and far, far below 'protected' racial and religious minorities" — The Anti-Catholic Backlash—Do We Deserve It?


  • Rather than "turn the pro-life movement into a Kantian, ideological monstrosity," he proposes a "state-by-state approach to banning abortion, combined with a concerted attempt to make abortion disgraceful (you know, like smoking cigarettes or making racist jokes)" — Abortion and Abolition.
