Holy Moly! What is Holy Moly?

Conventionally used as an exclamation of astonishment, the phrase "holy moly" has long been official slang of the English language. I'm pretty sure "moly" isn't a real word, at least not in this context...it was only born to serve as the rhyming partner to the word "holy" in this famous expression.

The root of the expression has always been "holy", and I've decided to give a little more meaning to the rest of the expression. Moly - stuff that's neat to know.

So this blog is simply a place to find your daily dose of Holy Moly - a two minute blurb on something about the Catholic faith that might be neat to know. I hope you get half as much out of reading them as I believe I'll get out of writing them.
