Well, it's been a hell of a ride, laying rubber all over the road for the past decade. But it's time to call it a day and park the Rogue in the garage. Effective today, I am shutting down my blog to focus my attention on other endeavours. My thanks to the more than 2.7 million people who regularly joined me on these sojourns through news stories over the years that dealt with the places with issues of religion and faith intersecting with public affairs. May God bless you with a continuing desire to learn about and help disseminate the issues of faith throughout the public square. Happy trails in your continuing travels! Fr. Tim Moyle, p.p.

Reflections from the pastoral ministry of an Evangelical Catholic Priest.
Here's an article claiming PM Thatcher's fundamental economic policies were Catholic at a fundamental level.

I view it as a rather revisionist attempt to give cover to a lot of regressive practices that go against the letter and spirit of Catholic social justice teachings ( http://www.usccb.org/beliefs-and-teachings/what-we-believe/catholic-social-teaching/seven-themes-of-catholic-social-teaching.cfm ) in attempt to put a Catholic cover on some of the more extreme forms of capitalism we "enjoy" today.
I'd be interested to hear your take on this.
