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

Jesuit-run Amerika Magazine bravely comments about Leo XIV and the TLM … behind a paywall. (There are ways….) Mind you… anything or anyone jesuitical commenting on liturgy should right away be held as suspect. There are exceptions. Is this one? … Read More
