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

Card. Müller: “we must resist” the hostile takeover of the Church
The other day I saw in a dreadful video something really alarming in regard to the Synodal (“walking together”) process. The implication was that the Holy Spirit will change the Church and the Church’s doctrines because the Holy Spirit will … Read More
Card. Müller on the proposed reform of the Roman Curia

Card. Müller on deaconettes: “No. Not possible.” – on liturgy: “crisis”

NEW BOOK: The Cardinal Müller Report: An Exclusive Interview on the State of the Church
I bring to the attention of the readership a new book from Ignatius Press. It is clearly meant to hearken to the now-classic and still relevant Ratzinger Report (US HERE – UK HERE). Joseph Ratzinger was Prefect of the CDF then, … Read More

BOMBSHELL: The Four Cardinals Letter to Pope Francis – “Seeking Clarity”
UPDATE: I’d be willing to bet that The Four are merely the tip of the spear. I’d wager that they represent a large gang of quiet Cardinals who want answers, but because they are presently in curial or diocesan positions … Read More

We must deal soberly with the ramifications of the Post-Synodal Apostolic Exhortation Amoris laetitia. Despite some of its advantages, the document has problems. A friend sent an email with some interesting analysis, which I am reworking and posting hereunder. Sandro Magister … Read More

Card. Müller: Delegate doctrinal decisions to regional conferences? “absolutely anti-Catholic”!
Recently Card. Marx and the German Bishops conference flexed their muscles a bit and suggested that they should have oversight of doctrine (rather than Rome) and that they were pretty much not subordinated to Rome. I have now read an … Read More

Mickens attacks Müller for The Fishwrap. Park your logic at the door.
Robert Mickens, recently fired by The Pill (aka The Tablet – HERE), has a column at The Fishwrap (aka The National Schismatic Reporter). I think I predicted that Mickens would drift over to The Pill’s North American counterpart. Fishwrap is surely looking for … Read More

Fishwrap supports coalition of heretics asking Pope to apologize
The catholic Left will turn on Pope Francis when they finally realize that he is not going to conform to their liberal and heretical notions and agenda. The cracks are already appearing. Most liberals have been gushing about him since his … Read More
Back to the Future: LCWR nuns and “Conscious Evolution” and gnosticism
