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

Efforts to “queer” the Church and explaining @JamesMartinSJ
Tell me this isn’t coordinated. First, for a while now, some theologian friends and I have watched with a measure of distaste and concern a “queering of theology”. I see today via Corrispondenza Romana a story entitled: “Papa Francesco apre … Read More
