Great site! Sorry to bug you with one little pedantic detail, but St. Thomas Becket never called himself Thomas a Becket. That was some wacky Protestant invention (perhaps they got him mixed up with Thomas Aquinas or something). Like I said, it's a nerdy, little, pedantic thing to point out, but, you know, just FYI and all.
Anyway, this is a cool blog, and I'm glad to have found it! Keep crusading!
