William Peter Blatty is not a very happy camper these days.And especially nights.Ever since his precious alma mater { Georgetown }, " the school whose scholarship money rescued him from a restless childhood of poverty in New York,the school that made possible his life and cemented his faith. " The location where the top grossing { Inflation adjusted } R-rated movie in history was shot.The Location and school that saw fit last spring to Invite Kathleen Sebelius as Commencement speaker.And also the school where one 30 yr.old student { Sandra Fluke } managed to get admitted so she could disrupt the Jesuit school's high code of Catholicism or " Ex Corde Ecclesiae " or Pope John Paul II's constitution for affiliated colleges.or how could one forget that another Very Catholic college { Notre Dame } also invited President Obama as commencement speaker in 2010.Then again a couple years later.Obama telling those Fighting Irish " I do not suggest that the debate surrounding Abortion,can or should go away ". Of course you don't.You are the biggest Abortion proponent this country has ever had.Sebelius,not far behind. That is why on the anniversary of - The Exorcist - it's 40th,Blatty is upset more than usual.Because he didn't graduate Georgetown { 1950 } end up selling vacuums and driving a beer truck,relocating to L.A. and struggling as a writer for his beloved alma mater to be some tool for Abortionists. I wonder what another fellow catholic { William F. Buckley } would think and say today,if around.Buckley's first book being : - God and Man at Yale - . Blatty however is taking action.Believing Georgetown University has drifted perilously into secularism." This month Blatty submitted to the Vatican, a petition of thousands of signatures and a 120 page institutional audit that calls for the removal of Georgetown's Catholic and Jesuit designations if it does not comply with every little rule in " Ex Corde Ecclesiae ". yes,that would be the same William Peter Blatty,the author of - The Exorcist - who never thought his novel would scare anyone. This coming from the man who one critic praised " Nobody writes funnier lines than William Peter Blatty ". Due in large part to Blatty's writing of the Peter Sellers caper - A Shot in the Dark -. So maybe it's good that Mr.Blatty is back and slightly possessed again. Meaning to have some degree of control over something. get it. Trick or Treat
