ANDREA TORNIELLI
“I gladly accepted to celebrate next Saturday’s … Continue reading

“straight and narrow is the path” … of the New Evangelization
Check out this video from CNS (I am still surprised to write those words).
Ralph Martin talks about our post-Counciliar context which the New Evangelization is supposed to address.

Tablet: “Don’t let anyone tell you the Council didn’t change much!”
The Pill… aka The Tablet… does it again!
On 5 October the American journalist Robert Kaiser, who covered the Council for Time magazine, gave an address for the annual evening of self-affirmation and pre-Conciliar Church bashing for the liberal London Catholic bien-pensant.

“There goes my life!” and Vatican II
At the end of the Call to Holiness Conference, I spoke at the dinner. I led with a reference to popular culture, a song by Kenny Chesney. In the country-music song, a young man learns that his girlfriend is with … Continue reading
Vatican II – WDTPRS POLL
I was sent this cartoon.
True?
“Vatican II opened up the Church… and the people left!”

POPE TO TABLET….
You will recall that The Tablet recently published a dopey editorial about Vatican II. They got just about everything wrong. I wrote about it HERE.

Benedict XVI on Year of Faith: “a pilgrimage in the deserts of today’s world, taking with us only what is necessary”
“Reference to the documents saves us from extremes of anachronistic nostalgia and running too far ahead, and allows what is new to be welcomed in a context of continuity.”

The Tablet’s latest cowardly editorial
The Tablet (aka RU-486) has a really bad editorial about the 50th anniversary of the Second Vatican Council.
