Catholic League calls author Anne Rice's rejection of Christianity a 'tragedy' :: Catholic News Agency (CNA)

Editor: Bill Donahue must see things pretty simplistically, overly simplistically, perhaps. It has to be pretty hard to be on the sidelines writing pious, gnostic fairy tales about your half-hearted connection to a fading religion when Twilight sales are just bumpin'. Now that she's taken off the shackles of Catholic pretense, perhaps she can go back to writing the sexually charged, Gothic stuff of adolescent fantasy which made her the famous renovator of the Vampire legendarium in the first place.

It remains unclear what she will do now that she's shed her Catholic aura, but we wonder with Diogenes, what will become of the battle for greatest Christian author of history now that the only two contenders are Shakespeare and Dante?
