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

Hell’s Bible is on board, and what shipmates they have!
Quarter page ad in the New York Times (aka Hell’s Bible) which had a spontaneous photographer handy at a spontaneous event recently, also featured in Hell’s Bible. Not deceptive at all, is it?
