Interesting but occasionally opaque

Greeley is a fascinating author. Thusfar, I've only read his sociology. This is a collection of his columns for syndication in which he attempts (with varying success) to be an ordained Mike Royko. It's tough to tell exactly what Greeley thinks on a lot of subjects because his writing tends towards self-contradiction, sometimes even in the same column. In general, though, it seems that he espouses the sort of comfortable suburban Catholicism that I've come to reject myself (it was only in reading this book, the first Greeley I've read in two years, that I realized how radically my views have changed in that time and to what extent I continue down my path towards a much more radical form of Catholicism than even what I hold now).
