A new Onion Dome Article!

Hi Readers,

Okay, time to brag again. I got into the Onion Dome again! Whoo hoo! Fame and fortune here I come! My article is about an Old Calendar parish resolving to observe the Fourth of July on the Old Calendar so that they can actually have meat. Click here to read it.

And, I have a new article here, about Christian romance, too, if it's not clear from the Table of Contents. It's called Early Babies and Other Hazards of Passion.

In Christ,
Thomas

The Best Rejection Letter Ever

I hope I can get a rejection letter of this quality some day...

We have read your manuscript with boundless delight, and if we were to publish your paper, it would be impossible for us to publish any work of a lower standard. And, as it is unthinkable that in the next thousand years we shall see its equal, we are, to our regret, compelled to return your divine composition and beg you a thousand times to overlook our short sight and timidity.

--A Chinese publication rejecting a writer, as quoted in the Kenyon Review

I just saw "Horton Hears a Who..."

And the Mayor of Whoville reminds me of the Prophet Isaiah.
