"God alone knows what they are capable of when provoked."

I'll tell you what we're capable of!!! We'll clog your arteries with cream sauces, befuddle your senses with good wine, torture your intellect with fine distinctions, wear out your knees in prayer, drag you kicking and screaming into teleological metaphysics, and then we'll make you groan in horror at our lame Jesuit jokes.

So there, take that, heathen dog!

Clearly the breeding ground for all manner of conspiracies. Particularly when Padre Tharp expounds on his passion for cheezsteaks 'wit' ' acquired while a young seminarian full of mush at our St. Charles Seminary. We trust the Good Father will also confess his passion for all things Tastykake while eschewing heathen brands like the execrable Lil Debbie's or the hideous mutated Hostess Twinkees.

Worst of all, they will counter unreason with logic, brushing aside appeals to authority, ad hominem remarks, straw men, and (horror of horrors) bringing the truth to light by examining the actual arguments of the philosophers themselves by applying techniques developed by DWEMs like Aristotle, Albertus Magnus and Aquinas.
