How the LCWR, Magisterium of Nuns, get around the Church’s teaching and hierarchy

Posted on 14 May 2013 by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf

Jesuit-run Gonzaga University rejects Knights of Columbus?

Posted on 12 April 2013 by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf

This is absurd.
The last acceptable prejudice around these days is to hate faithful practicing Catholics who accept the Churches teachings on faith and moral.
Now the acceptable prejudice is creeping into the catholic community itself.

Some people are finally waking up to lefty hijacking of pro-life language in gun control debate

Posted on 29 January 2013 by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf

I have been saying for weeks now that the left has been hijacking pro-life language for their own ends. Right now, they are twisting their support for Pres. Obama (against people who “cling to guns or religion”) into a “prolife … Continue reading →

Hijacking the language of the pro-life movement

March For Life VIDEO! Obama for the … Unborn?!?

Posted on 11 January 2013 by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf

The Ghost of Lib-Mass Yet To Come

Posted on 30 December 2012 by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf

Someone sent me a link to an article in Hell’s Bible (aka The New York Times) about “experimental worship” and moving beyond institutional church… sort of like what the National catholic Reporter praises.
There is some pretty crazy stuff in the … Continue reading →
