Blogging right-handers

Friday’s Boston Globe has a front page article concerning several Catholic bloggers and their influence on Archbishop O’Malley’s decision not to attend the Catholic Charities annual Christmas fundraising dinner, which this year honors Mayor Menino.

The article is worth reading. A Catholic blogger myself, I am slightly familiar with the blogs mentioned, and found Bettnet to be an excellent one, the others not so. This one passage concerning the bloggers struck me:

…even their opponents acknowledge that they are commanding attention where once they could safely be ignored.

Distill all theology of Christian living into one thought, and it would be this:

Nobody can “safely be ignored”.

Nobody. No exceptions.
