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

VIDEO: How are newcomers to the Traditional Latin Mass treated?
I saw an oldish video interview that Taylor Marshall did with Michael Matt of The Remnant. They range around on many topics. However, this part is of particular value. How are newcomers to the Traditional Latin Mass treated? Welcomed? Not welcomed? … Read More
Facing down the worst of our storms and threats with prayer
Hurricane Laura was terribly destructive. It was, after all, a hurricane. However, it wasn’t as destructive as anticipated. That might be small relief to those who have directly suffered from it, but at least there are fewer of those who directly … Read More
“The Lost Tools Of Learning” and Defunding Public Schools
The chaos and violence in our summer streets this year are the vile fruits of an increasingly leftist, ideological, politicized public education system. The idiots in the streets, embracing fantasies about Marxism imbibed in school room, are doing precisely what … Read More

How many times over the years have I written on this blog about priests who fool around with the forms of sacrament, the necessary words to be pronounced? How many? A lot. Very few things disturb people more than not being … Read More
