A very interesting discussion of the Wheaton situation, blogged below, at TitusOneNine, an Anglican weblog, in case you didn’t know. Some commentors there are on the ground at Wheaton and environs, which is helpful.

(Just a Wheaton note. There is an excellent Catholic bookstore in Wheaton that is right on the main street, is very large, and is simply called "Wheaton Religious Gifts and Church Supply." It carries a lot of stuff for various denominations, but is, at its core, and in terms of most of his stock, Catholic. An interesting presence, I think.)

David Mills at Mere Comments notes our O’Brien discussion and astutely comments:

What she describes is a rather typical example of intellectual thuggery. You keep saying as firmly and loudly as you can, "Who are these silly ignorant people?", no matter how many people keep asking you, "But are they right?"

A video interview – at Slate, of all places – with Monsignor Lorenzo Albacate of Communion and LIberation.
