From a Father (the Catholic kind):
Dear Jonah,
I have been reading you faithfully [pun intended] and detect no anti-Catholicism whatsoever. Your critiques of my co-religionists are articulate, concise, and true. Buchanan, Moran, et al., are deserving of much harsher correction than you have offered. Keep up the excellent work. The author of the column criticizing you and other Neo-conservatives wants to stir up Catholics against you. The fact of the matter is that he would appear to be promoting some other ancient prejudice, trying to replace the hyphen with a space in โJudeo-Christian,โ if you ask me. Please carry on in the best tradition of Mr. Buckley with all your fellow NR and NRO writers, especially K-Lo and Derbyshire and Rod Dreher. As we Papists frequently say in Latin: Non illegitimi carborundum est.
Semper fi,
[name withheld]
