Carter on Kinkade

Our web editor Joe Carter has suggested in today’s “On the Square” that there are some problems with the hugely popular painter Thomas Kinkade’s painting. He writes, in Thomas Kinkade’s Cottage Fantasy , that the painting is sentimental, which will not surprise you, but explains why it is and why this matters. It’s already getting comments. Please join in.

And while you’re at it, you may want to look at the comments on R. R. Reno’s Metaphysics and the Common Good and Joseph Bottum’s Blood for Blood .
