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

“GO TO CONFESSION!” I always say. Another thing I say is that it is CRUEL to leave penitents in doubt.
Today I was out and about in Rome doing errands. I chanced on a posted sign in the penitents’ part of the free standing confessionals that line most Roman churches, often dusty from neglect. The sign is a little blurry … Read More
ROME DAY 25/01 05: a little discrepancy
Roman sunrise was at 07:23. The sun will set at 17:24. The Ave Maria Bell is in the 17:45 cycle. In the older calendar, today is the Feast of St. Francis de Sales. He was transferred to 24 January in … Read More
Another point of Catholic identity out with the bathwater?
Occasionally we have a collision of Holy Days of Obligations and Feasts in the calendar. Feasts get transferred. Does the obligation get transferred? We had this situation recently regarding the Feast/Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception which fell on an Advent … Read More

Some think that AI is here to stay. If that is so, then I am not convinced that we are (cf. Skynet). In the meantime, AI is bringing us bread and circuses: great memes and videos, etc. That’s what the interwebs did, … Read More
