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

I just saw an interesting movie called “Don’t Look Up”. Metaphor for what’s up in the Church right now?
I just saw an interesting movie called “Don’t Look Up”. The central idea is that there is a massive, planet killing comet on a collision course with Earth and by the time this global extinction fact penetrates the fog of … Read More
Super new book from Anthony Esolen: An Annotated Reading of the Prologue of John
When Anthony Esolen and Angelico Press team up… well… it just doesn’t get any better than that. I was really excited at the notification that Anthony Esolen (whose translation of the Divine Comedy is terrific) had written an in depth … Read More
LAWLER: “And then came Francis.”
At Catholic Culture, the perspicacious Phil Lawler makes a good point about the premises of the severely cruel Plessy v. Ferguson legacy document of the Era of Francis. The backward logic of Traditionis Custodes Insofar as Traditionis Custodes provides any … Read More

I have good news and bad news
I’ve had some emails over the last months and weeks from deeply wounded, anxious souls who fear that, in regard to traditional sacred liturgical worship (TSLW), we have gone back to the 70’s and 80’s, all the gains from Ecclesia Dei and Summorum … Read More
A good point about Holy Days of Obligation and our Catholic identity
At The Catholic Thing, John M. Grodelski makes an obvious but NOT thereby less valuable point. Let’s see. January 1, 2022 was a Saturday. January 1, 2023 is a Sunday. January 1, 2024 is a Monday. Only one of those January … Read More
Gregorian chant disc by FSSP seminarians tops the charts. I suspect that might annoy some people.
This disc of Gregorian chant and Christmas music has been on the top of the classical charts for weeks. It’s popularity must be increased. This is a concrete sign of what people want, not what is being forced by Rome et al. … Read More
WDTPRS: The Traditional Latin Mass and the NON-Traditional Latin Mass (Novus Ordo) are NOT the same simply because they are both in Latin. Wherein Fr. Z explains also the motives of those who attack the TLM.
The hatred shown for traditional sacred liturgical worship of the Roman Church, and the excuses claimed for its marginalization and extirpation are rooted in more than “Spirit of Vatican II” ideology and it’s companion specter, the papalatrous “Spirit of Vatican … Read More
27 Dec – St. John the Evangelist – Today we bless WINE!
The liturgical year guided and nourished and shaped Catholics for centuries. It does so far less now, since it is much diminished after the “reforms” that hacked away at the calendar. However, once upon a time people not only followed … Read More
