I looked him up. His Wikipedia page is scant on details (not a good sign for an "erudite" of any caliber), but does mention this:
Quote:
To his displeasure, he found this college to be what he considered to be (in the words of Michael W. Cuneo, who interviewed him) "the antithesis of what a Catholic college should be", as it was pro-choice, feminist and secular.
He made little effort to conceal his views, which led to conflicts with many faculty, his department chairwoman, and eventually the college's president. Though he was in a tenure track position, the department, which viewed him as a religious absolutist, decided against renewing his contract after his first year.
So erudite that a university kicked him out for being a fringe lunatic. Hmmm....
Quote:
Jones's work has primarily been concerned with the relationship between the Catholic Church and secular culture, particularly the effects of the sexual revolution on the Church and the culture.
Yep totally a sane, rational man~
Quote:
Later work has focused on the historical friction between the Catholic Church and Jews. In 2004, the Catholic League "condemned Jones’s antisemitism and repudiated his efforts to justify it in the name of Catholic theology".[3]
So sane that he's too fringe for... Bill fucking Donahue? lolol
Ah, but then I checked his website (nice domain name btw), where he peddles some of his articles in PDF (for a modest fee), and I found one where he
conflates homosexuality with pedophilia and has charming passages from his totally sane, erudite, rational mind:
Quote:
The Vagina Monologues, as those of your who have read the article on it featured two years ago in these pages know, is agitprop for lesbianism and masturbation.

Not lesbians and masturbation! The HORROR

Your ramblings are insane, though.
Yep, I'm the insane one. Not the guy who wrote, in some incredibly unhinged and meandering rant about
Harry Potter, the following gems:
Quote:
Like narcissism, homosexuality is a function of father deprivation. The less father, the less reality.
[...]
The subsequent “desperation to fill up the empty self” brings us to the other metaphor for the homosexual as the best example of the narcissist consumer, namely, the vampire, who, like the homosexual, has been reduced to a primitive, magical form of social intercourse where he must suck parasite-like on the people he admires in order to continue in existence.
[...]
As education in England became more “scientific” it also became more “magical” because magic, although it had much in common with applied science, was the opposite of wisdom
Yes, truly, my feeble mind is probably too insane to grasp the brilliance of this brilliant scholar.
