That’s the quote of the day, from this interesting blog post at Solomonia (h/t Amy Welborn).
I wish everybody who dares to venture into debate, from a lectern or over the dinner table, would remember that truth. It’d certainly make presidential elections less tiresome.
I guess it depends on what one means by “ridicule.” There are numerous Catholic curmudgeons, e.g., Waugh, Chesterton, Belloc, who used wit and biting satire to ridicule — or at least poke fun at — their rivals, and no one would claim they only kept the “already converted entertained.”
