"Fr Z is a true phenomenon of the information age: a power blogger and a priest."

“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."

Sometimes the best way to learn to swim is to dive right in the middle of the pool.
Father Z, thanks for this wonderful news and message. I wonder how old this priest is? Although I may be wrong, I suspect he is on the
young side. All the best, Tom
A world of spirituality opens up.
I hate to say this, but it reminds me of my mother and cooking. She grew up in a household with a mother and a grandmother in the house and the other grandmother next door. She wasn’t allowed to do more than peel a potato before she left for college.
She’s an excellent cook now.
She always says “I was literate. I read books.”
I totally agree with Mr. Tinkler: litteracy is of the essence on this. That, and a strong will.
To get ME, not the smartest around, to serve in Mass it took some weeks. In the same time, a priest can lear (or re-learn) High Mass properly.
Thanks be to God!

For us in the pews too. Perhaps it isn’t right, but since I have been attending the EF, the Novus Ordo just seems so…lite.
