My view for a while
And so we begin another trip. New author, too!
I wonder if he will hold even a candle to Patrick O’Brian. I hope he ain’t a slubberdegullion or a blatteroon.
UPDATE:
Time for the next leg.
This is starting out to be … Continue reading

QUAERITUR: Communion on Saturday evening, then twice on Sunday?
From a reader:
I am a Seminarian who is in a parish which has a “Vigil Mass of Sunday” on Saturday evenings. I have read your posts regarding receiving communion twice in one day, and I know the “Vigil” Mass legally … Continue reading
WDTPRS Trinity Sunday – shared glory, majesty’s gift
The First Sunday after Pentecost is Trinity Sunday, a day some well-catechized Catholics dread for what they may hear from the pulpit.

QUAERITUR: Greek island without a Catholic church on Sunday
From a reader:
we will be on a Greek island without a Catholic church on a Sunday:
can we attend the Greek mass and/or receive the Sacrament?
You can, and I think should, attend the Greek Divine Liturgy if attending a Catholic Mass … Continue reading
Praise ye him, O sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars and light.
I was struck today by the image of a galaxy posted at Astronomy Pic of the Day.

Pope Francis on the possibility of salvation for atheists
People are sending me notes about Pope Francis’ fervorino from Mass yesterday. News outlets (and panicky emails I am getting) are suggesting that the Pope said that atheists go to heaven. HERE
Alas, we never get what the Pope actually said in its … Continue reading
A Pastor’s Page: We are Catholic to the extent that we accept Church teaching in its entirety.
My dear friend, the great Fr. George Welzbacher (Class of 1951!), on my list of the smartest men I’ve ever known, has one of the best “Pastor’s Page” weekly offerings you’ll find in any parish bulletin.
