“Given that Rorate Coeli and Shea are mad at Fr. Z, I think it proves Fr. Z knows what he is doing and he is right.”

"Let me be clear. Fr. Z is a shock jock, mostly. His readership is vast and touchy. They like to be provoked and react with speed and fury."

“For me the saddest thing about Father Z’s blog is how cruel it is.... It’s astonishing to me that a priest could traffic in such cruelty and hatred.”

Beautiful, Father. Thank you.
Wow! That’s beautiful. We missed the eclipse here in Pennsylvania due to cloud cover.
Psalm 8, Douay-Rheims Bible verses 4&5,
4 For I will behold thy heavens, the works of thy fingers: the moon and the stars which thou hast founded. 5 What is man that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man that thou visitest him?
A beautiful picture, Father!
Fr. Z:
Nice picture of the lunar eclipse (pulchra defectionis lunae imago)!
I am sorry that you had to endure the unpleasantness of noisy neighbours. The Devil loves noise, as my mentor, Pater S. used to say (spiritus malignus amat strepitum).
On the other hand, it can be said of you, even though you are not old and certainly not “otiosus”:
Nihil est otiosa senectute jucundius. Videbamus in studio dimetiendi caeli Galum (Patrem Z). Quam delectabat eum defectiones solis et lunae multo ante nobis praedicere! (Cic. De Senectute).
Comanche moon. Blood about to be shed. Wasichu on warpath. Squaws crying. Motu proprio coming.
I caught the very tail end of it as I was driving home from Mass Saturday night. I looked at it and thought, “You know, that shadow curves the wrong way…Darn! There was a lunar eclipse!”
By that time it was only about an eighth covered, and rapidly diminishing.
But Father! Father!
….It’s beautiful. And, all the moreso since we had a short blizzard keeping visibility down to about 2 car-lengths at the very time we were suppose to see it!
Thanks
