I Got Yer Coolest Catholic Blogs Right Here

We're so underground that we didn't even hear of the Sheenazing Blogger Awards (that's as in Fulton Sheen) until someone notified us that we'd been nominated for Coolest Blogger(s): "Reading this blog makes you awesome just by association." Lots of pressure there, but we cool.

It may be that I'm entirely out of the loop, but I didn't recognize many of the bloggers nominated for almost anything. The Catholic interwebs have changed since we first started writing almost eight years ago, and many blogs have risen and fallen in the meantime. I also hadn't realized that Catholic blogging had fractured so thoroughly into gender enclaves -- seems like it used to be that most people read most people, or as least that's how it was in the circles in which we ran.

And so, speaking of the circles in which we run, we've quickly thrown together our own list of Coolest Catholic blogs. They may not be the biggest or the loudest, but reading these guys definitely "makes you awesome just by association."

Search Engine Philosophizing

By some unimaginable injustice, we are the top link if you search Google for "Catholic philosophy blog". If searching cost money, I think people should ask for their money back. As it stands, I can only apologize to all the real Catholic philosophers.

Adventures in Search Engine Use

To whoever got to one of my old posts on college core curriculum courses while searching "mom amateur porn" on ask.com from Italy, I hope you enjoyed the post and kind of hope you didn't find what you were looking for.

The internet can be so odd...
