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

Leo XIV: “a very ‘say the black, do the red’ kind of priest”
It’s great to see a phrase you have popularized for so long that people now use it rather commonly. It’s even better when that phrase is used to describe our new Pope Leo XIV. Also of note in that screen … Read More

Leo XIV – relax
I think we can relax a little. I think the Church’s “East Germany” is going to diminish. My people, some know the new Pope, affirm that he prays and that he believes. This counts for a lot. I don’t want to … Read More

Here’s an idea to bring about healing and peace: Let the “Dubia Cardinals” re-submit the 2016 Dubia (Amoris) and 2023 Dubia (Synodality)
One of the thing that a new Pope has to do, is tie up the loose ends left by his predecessor. There are no ends looser that one can imagine that the DUBIA about Amoris laetitia submitted in 2016 to … Read More
