Michael D. Greaney, Director of Research for the Center for Economic and Social Justice, is collaborating with some friends on a project to revive the fiction of Robert Hugh Benson, the son of E. W. Benson (the 19th century Archbishop of Canterbury) and 1903 convert from Anglicanism whom he describes, tongue-in-cheek, as "a subversive convert who wrote books undermining true Catholic doctrine and promoting everything Dr. E. Michael Jones disagrees with, like truth, love and justice." See the project underway at www.benson-unabridged.com. In an email to me, he says: "Reading down your lists of posts, I discovered that you and your whole family (and, no doubt, the horse you rode in on), have been targeted by Culture Wars magazine for your crimes against humanity, the Church, and the Gospel According to Jones. . . . Welcome to the club."
Evidently Greaney and the interfaith Center for Economic and Social Justice ("CESJ"), http://www.cesj.org/, were the object of a bizarre attack by Dr. Jones' economic consultant, Dr. Rupert J. Ederer, Ph.D., professor emeritus of economics at Buffalo State University, New York, in the May 2005 issue. I don't have time to go into further detail here, except to say that Greaney's (and the CESJ's) quarrel with Dr. Ederer revolves around his interpretation of Catholic social teaching.
