“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."

I know absolutely nothing about Pius XII, but I love that picture. Our late, beloved, monsignor also had a pet bird (as do I).
That’s Gretl, the goldfinch. Pius XII was very fond of birds.
Praying for a miracle on his Facebook page, too: https://www.facebook.com/MiraclesOfPopePiusXii
I’ve been following you for almost a year now, Fr. Z. Loved your live tweets during the election. Now, I’m following Pope Pius XII as well. Time to learn more Italian!
20,006 now Fr. Z. This is all new to me. First time tweeting.
I love the picture. Of course, Pope Francis had his dove. Some day there will be a picture with Pope Francis with a dove and a deer and a bunny and a wolf all cuddled around him. somewhere someone has done that in Photoshop. The marketing possibilities of Pope Francis garden statues are mind boggling.
How about Pope Pius XII garden statue with goldfinch?
Father you didn’t mention the clock!
Father Z, saw this book review (a rave) and thought of you:

If you want it, pop it onto your amazon wish list, and I’ll get it for you.
