matt_doyleInternet round-up for this morning includes:
A Marine Sergeant berates the NYPD for harassing protesters.
Veteran support for Occupy Wall Street.
Sorry guys, those neutrinos weren't going faster than light after all.
Asking and telling is working out just fine.
Infiltrating and informing on the 99%.
Catholic diocese charged with covering up sex crimes.
I come from a largely Catholic family (well, Catholic on one side, Episcopalian on the other; but I'm much closer to the Catholic side), but as time goes by I find the behavior of the church itself as an organization more and more reprehensible. There also seems to be a significant disconnect in values and openness to the modern world between your typical American Catholic and the Church hierarchy. Makes me wonder if we aren't due for another schism. I don't know a single Catholic round these parts who actually calls the current pope by his regnal name -- everyone still just calls him Ratzinger.
