About this blog…
“This blog is like a fusion of the Baroque ‘salon’ with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West “saloon” with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven.” – Fr. Z

John Paul’s little dove just keeps returning!
It’s all in His Hands and we are but His instruments.
I always wanted to learn how to dance.

With Moto in one hand and with Christ having my back, Do you hear me now Bishops of the world!!!!
Watch it dear brothers, BIG BROTHER is also looking over my shoulders…..
“Look! The Anglican flying bishops have arrived.”
Don’t complain to me, complain to Him. I’m just following orders.
It’s not about me or you; it’s about HIM! That’s why we need ad orientum.
Thank you, Holy Spirit, for the daily dispatches…
You think Communion on the tongue and kneeling is the end of my return to Tradition? Just wait until you see the rest up my sleeve!
But being full of the Holy Spirit, he gazed intently into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God;
Acts 7:55
But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looking up steadfastly to heaven, saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God. And he said: Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God. Acts 7:55

“I saw Satan like lightning falling from heaven.”
Non Anglicani sed angeli!

HE’s in charge — you’re not. Deal with it.
Look, it’s a plane….Nooooo, it’s a bird….Noooo, it’s SuperJesus!!!!
You need to move that “For you and for many” banner a little more to the right. They won’t be able to read it where it is.

Herr Ober!!! Noch ein Fanta bitte!

Haha. That was a good one, though I think the concept of a ‘flying bishop’ is lost on many of the readers here.
