More on the Southern Poverty Law Center

Karl Keating's E-Letter of February 7, 2007 carries an interesting exposé of the Southern Poverty Law Center and extensive January 17, 2007, report on anti-Semitism within Traditionalist Catholicism. Keating's piece is entitled "A Botched Reort on a Worthy Issue," and concludes -- after some remarkable findings I don't have time to relate at the moment -- thus: "Perhaps the SPLC could use a small portion of its substantial endowment to fund an investigatory team consisting of Catholics who know the Church, its history, and the faith and who know how to conduct an investigation that will end up being factually correct. The issue of anti-Semitism within the Traditionalist movement does need to be discussed, but it should be discussed by people who know what they're doing."
