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

USCCB shreds Sr. Elizabeth Johnson’s book on the Trinity

I am confused.
The Catholic left condemned President Bush and the Iraq War. Why is the Catholic left not condemning President Obama and what he is doing in Libya?
On the new, corrected translation. Wherein Fr. Z rants and reacts.
