George Gilder wrote that marriage further civilization by settling men down. This added type of emasculation probably

Charlie Brown Christmas Tree

> Good Grief. Learn the true meaning of Christmas with Charlie Brown's classic pathetic Christmas tree. Leave it bare or dress it up all fancy. The tree is an exact replica of the tree from the famous cartoon, made of wire branches and plastic needles with a criss

St. JPII Website

A site devoted to John Paul II's potential canonization [http://www.vicariatusurbis.org/Beatificazione/]. Much of it isn't in English, but some is (look for the British flags). Thanks, Little Jimmy Akin [http://www.jimmyakin.org/2005/11/how_is_the_caus.html].
