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

The Nightmare for Progressivists
The post by Mosebach got me thinking about something I have drilled at for a while now. Libs, progressivists, what ever you call them, are functioning within a blinkered paradigm. They have raised what they imagine the Council was about … Continue reading
Three SSPX seminarians killed near Econe
People of good will will note with sorrow that three seminarians of the SSPX, attending the seminary in Ecône, were killed in an avalanche in nearby Nendaz. I urge you to pray for them and for comfort for their families, … Continue reading
“Why the Pope had to do what he did”

Let me make this clear
To those sending me obtuse e-mail filled with indignation that the POPE would rehabilitate a HOLOCAUST DENIER!, I offer these comments. To those journalists and columnists out there who are grinding their gears over this issue, please pay attention. Please … Continue reading

QUAERITUR: young people, music, Mass and entertainment
From a reader: In my experience when Masses are celebrated with a children’s choir or a teen band it seems that the focus of the Liturgy shifts from the Sacrifice of the Mass to the children that are singing or … Continue reading
Preparing for a yearly Triduum controversy
Brace yourselves. In the week’s ahead, as we move into Lent, enemies of the Pope will no doubt remember that he changed the Good Friday prayer for Jews in the 1962MR. Then the whole anti-Jewish thing will have another round … Continue reading

The Pope or the Party? Bad News from China
The always interesting Sandro Magister presents us with a piece on the Church in China. I am sure you will be shocked that the "openness" of the Olympic facade might not have been entirely genuine. Let’s have a look with … Continue reading
A Lenten meal idea: eggplant
Last night I made melanzane alla parmigiana, that’s eggplant. I found eggplant on sale for $1.39 each and thought I could get a couple meals out of them. I also wanted to see how fast I could put it together. … Continue reading
Paglia: pols as dump dogs and the fairness doctrine
From Camille Paglia‘s latest: Money by the barrelful, by the truckload. Mountains of money, heaped like gassy pyramids in the national dump. Scrounging packs of politicos, snapping, snarling and sending green bills flying sky-high as they root through the tangled … Continue reading
