Merry Christmas from DRC
To all of DRC’s contributors… readers… and friends….
Have a very merry and blessed Christmas!
Tony Blair’s Conversion to Rome
Tony Blair has become a Roman Catholic. CNN’s account here.
You have to feel bad for the Church of England.
Rod Dreher believes in Santa also!
I just saw this over at the Crunchy Con: here
Do you believe in Santa Claus?
