Even though he didn’t invent it, the Seattle Seahawks Stanford-educated cornerback, Richard Sherman, smartly pwnd the phrased “U Mad Bro?” against Tom Brady.

Unfortunately Brady learned his lesson and didn’t throw at Sherman during the Superbowl. I know, it was a little bit deflating.

However, in Catholic circles there’s something new on the rise. It’s a webpage called The Mad Papist. Here’s how it bills itself:

Yeah, I know there’s some counterintuitive commercialism going on here, but I find it hard to resist truly clever designs like these:

Speaking of Heidegger, did you know he never stopped being a Catholic?
Denys Turner should be your go-to-guy on the darkness of the apophatic God.
