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

Why A Religious Model for the State Is Not Good
Ask everybody and they’ll all agree it’s a good thing priests don’t run the world. I agree with this view. I also believe it’s even better that members of religious orders don’t run the world, whether they are Sisters of Mercy … Read More
Of apologies and of double-standards
