Oooh, I wish I were a Strossmayer weiner,:dancing:
that is what I truly like to be…
Cuz if I were a Strossmayer weiner,
then everybody truly would love me!

I am currently engaged in a civilized e-mail debate about the Bishop Strossmayer forged speech and I would like help with the following:

The problem: Where is the full text of the forged speech that keeps getting quoted in anti-Catholic circles? I would like to get it to do a simple grammar/literary analysis to prove he did not write that speech, by comparing it with his other writings and/or speeches. I have respectfully asked my worth opponent if he could find anything. So far, zip.

Can someone recommend a good way to publish this discussion?
I have never done this before.
