about this site
Catholic Sensibility is a personal blog by a Catholic layperson with comments and occasional other writings by Catholics and non-Catholics. We make no particular claims to have the completeness of a Roman Catholic expression of Christianity. It contains opinion, interpretation, and personal musings. That’s it. Nothing official or authoritatively connected to the Magisterium.

John Allen had a sensible bit of commentary last week. Not only have (my words) some of the Catholic Right polished their mean streak, but Allen’s words: In a recent essay for National Review Online, noted Catholic author George Weigel … Continue reading
