Correction: March 29, 2007
An essay in Science Times on Tuesday about the role eunuchs have played in history — a reflection prompted by the author’s prostate cancer treatment, which resulted in chemical castration — referred imprecisely to one person who was a eunuch. He was St. Ignatius of Constantinople. (Other SS. Ignatius were not known to be eunuchs.)
One would suppose that the Jebbies are now relieved that Ignatius Loyola has been redeemed of the accusation that he was eunuchoid.
