CathCon Weekly - 01/01/2016

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

With this edition, I have decided to stop excerpting small bits of the pieces below the links. It still takes me a bit too much time (I don't really have) to do so. In addition, I suspect the authors and sources are well known enough that it's not really necessary to show the excellence of the writings in order for my readers to know immediately whether they wish to read the entire piece.
