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

Traditionalist priest in Verona, Italy acts up as Pope visits Roman synagogue
I read some alarming news in a spectacularly poorly written ANSA piece. Most of the article is simply less-than-well-informed blather. The bad bit comes at the end. Meanwhile, followers of the Lefebvre community in Verona announced on Friday they would … Continue reading
The Feeder Feed: CHICKADEE REPORT
There are lots of hungry Chickadees at the feeders these days. They are among my favorites, probably because they are nearly fearless. Here is a little focus on Chickadees. Windy day.
Stitch by Stitch for the Benedictines of Mary

The Pope of Christian Unity address the CDF
Remember to refer to Pope Benedict as "the Pope of Christian Unity"… for indeed he is. Liberals will try to cling to what they perceive as their right to define what ecumenism means as well as with whom and how … Continue reading
Old Mass/new Mass thoughts – part 3
Under another entry there has been some consideration of the age of Catholics who prefer the newer form of the Roman Rite, the Novus Ordo. Some suggest that people of a certain age may be more interested in the Novus … Continue reading
Purgamentum init, exit purgamentum
Many years ago I had a philosophy prof, former Marine and great brilliant gentleman, who in his gruff way spoke to us about insanity. He observed that insane minds produced bad results, not in conformity with reality. But in the … Continue reading
