I just wanted to take a moment to acknowledge the tremendous work being done by Kevin Knight at New Advent. The site is a treasure trove and a key resources for any Catholic on the interwebs.
The site has an unbelievable amount of reference material available for instant viewing or download. The entire Catholic Encyclopedia is there. The entire Bible is there (In Greek, English, and Latin!), the entire Summa is there, the works of the Fathers are there, Church Documents, and much more. It is an amazing website.
But beyond just the wealth of reference material there, Mr. Knight scours the Catholic Internet and blogosphere each day to bring you links to the most important or interesting stories of the day. It is the first stop of the day for me and for thousands of others.
New Advent is one of the most important sites on the Catholic Internet and is a blessing for all who make use of it.
I just wanted to take a moment to thank Kevin Knight for maintaining this tremendous resource. We are all better off for what he does.

A beautiful resource which I visit often for my blog. They also have the entire Corpus Tomisticum though only very few will make use of it.
The Catholic Encyclopedia online is absolutely genial.

I second that emotion! New Advent is an unbelievable resource and Mr. Knight is a gentlemen, as well.

I need to chime in here, too! New Advent is one of the (relatively few) sites I check daily, even during the homeschooling year. Maybe that should be "especially" during the homeschooling year, as they often have resources available that are unique!

I check New Advent every day, and its contents helped guide me to Rome.

Kevin Knight,thanks. And thanks for pointing him out. I spent many hours buried in the Fathers and the Catholic Encyclopedia as I made my journey to full communion with RCC back in 2004 and 2005. As much as I love the team at Catholic Answers, I really didn't need them since practically every answer is at newadvent.org. It is a well named site.
