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

Fishwrap’s @MichaelSWinters wants action from the US bishops. So does @FatherZ
Michael Sean Winters (aka the Wile E. Coyote of the catholic Left, aka Madame Defarge the Tricoteuse) is worried. He has called to the US Bishops to stop the schism! In his latest panic attack at Fishwrap, Winters identifies several groups … Continue reading
That tragic Portland parish, the mistreatment of the priest. Fr. Z’s solution: “Let’s make a deal!”
I have been wanting to post something about this ever since I heard about it, days ago. Others have done yeoman’s work to cover it. For example, LifeSite. The bare bones: At an ultra-liberal parish in Portland – and that … Continue reading
The unhinged Left now turns to satanism, witchcraft to fight Pres. Trump, Justice Kavanaugh
Under another post I mentioned something about libs, Dems, turning to witchcraft to fight Pres. Trump. Several of you have sent notes about a plan for “witches” to gather in Brooklyn and… and… sorry, I just had an image of … Continue reading
Wile. E. Defarge goes to the zoo.
Something is screwy in the head of Madame Wile E. Defarge. To wit, in his recent twirl into sycophantic papalotry, he compares those who are calling for Francis to make things clear and help us properly to deal with the … Continue reading
The hurly burly of Medieval Studies!
You might think that this is a joke. It is a joke, but not the kind sane people think up. From Campus Reform (with my emphases and comments I’ll leave links in as texts): Activists demand more social justice in Medieval … Continue reading
Access to #FilialCorrection Crimethink webpage blocked in the Vatican
UPDATE: See comments, below, for possible alternative explanations involving filters. As reported by Corriere, the Vatican spokesman said: “nessun blocco, la notizia e falsa”… “ma figuratevi se facciano questo per una lettera di sessanta persone”. Also the head of the … Continue reading
Hate-filled lib liturgist attacks Benedict XVI for his praise of Card. Sarah
Recently Pope Benedict penned a short piece for a future re-printing of Card. Sarah’s splendid book on silence. Predictably, the liberal hate machine has lashed out at Benedict, just as they lashed out at Card. Sarah last year when he … Continue reading
How the Left organizes and operates
A couple videos which you might want to review. First, how the Left is organized. If you think this isn’t also happening in the Church you are puir slowwitted gowk. And then there is this nut ball, stoking the well-organized … Continue reading
A Bishop in Africa urges ‘ad orientem’ worship. A lib has a spittle-flecked nutty.
You might remember Robert Mickens. He used to be a correspondent for an ultra-liberal UK weekly The Pill (aka The Tablet). He lost his position when, channeling his inner Icarus, he engaged in seriously nasty comments about Pope Benedict in … Continue reading
Thoughts on the Five Dubia and The Four Cardinals
The Smear Machine is grinding. right on schedule, the liberal news outlets are closing ranks to discredit The Four Cardinals who submitted dubia to the Holy Father about what are generally admitted by reasonable people to be confusing points. Thought: I suggest … Continue reading
For the “Sissy” File: CTU reacts to Trump’s victory
For your “Sissy” File…. The Catholic Theological Union in Chicago has been a theological byword for … awful… for decades. An alumnus of the CTU sent this: Talk about Self-Absorbed Promethean Neopelagians! If you think that his name is familiar, Mark … Continue reading
What are we Catholic Americans to do?
You might trot over to Fishwrap (aka National Schismatic Reporter) and read the epitome of a spittle-flecked nutty. Michael Sean Winters (aka Wile E. Coyote of contemporary liberal Catholicism) is unhinged on this first full day on which we called Donald Trump “President-Elect” … Continue reading
The “Wile E. Coyote of contemporary liberal catholicism” rides again!
Every once in a while the Wile E. Coyote of contemporary liberal catholicism over at Fishwrap (aka National Schismatic Reporter) goes on a venom bender. Michael Sean Winters can last a few weeks without bashing Acton Institute and then he falls off the wagon. … Continue reading
LESBIANS! UNITE AGAINST OPPRESSION!
This entry has a convoluted origin, but here goes… I saw a story at Stream about a lesbian couple who are suing New Jersey, which is oppressing them. Get this… Erin and Marianne Krupa, a lesbian couple struggling to get … Continue reading
Ross Douthat explains the situation to liberal ‘c’atholic academics.
Ross Douthat is not lying down and letting the effete liberal catholic academic mafia kick him. He has declared war. Rather, perhaps he has openly stated that a state of war does in fact exist – he didn’t start it – and that … Continue reading
