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

Important research with implications for feminist geography
Allow me to preface this with the reminder that I hate squirrels. That said, I promise you I am not making this up. I was alerted to this from the – no… really… Journal of Feminist Geography. No… really. Here is an … Read More

Feminist v. Christian
Those zany Lutherans over at Lutheran Satire have another video. I hope these guys will come into unity with the Church right after the SSPX is reconciled!
Fishwrap: The Church is evil for having different roles for women, so we might have to leave.
I wonder if most of the writers for the Fishwrap (aka National Schismatic Reporter) – deep down – hate the Church. That’s a horrible thought, but how else can one explain this sort of thing? An article about how evil the … Read More

Too too muchly stupid
This is one of the stupidest things I have seen for a while. NRO picked up on something from HuffPo. HERE Adverbs are, apparently, evil. Adverbs: They’re hurting people. According to a piece in the Huffington Post, the word “too” … Read More
Camille Paglia interviewed. Great stuff on feminists, the Irish influence, more.
Over at Amerika Magazine‘s single redeeming feature there is a fascinating interview with a fascinating gal, Camille Paglia. Here are a couple samples. I think she’s dead wrong about a whole raft of things, but a) she’s honest and b) she’s … Read More
WARNING! If you suffer from Burke Derangement Syndrome™, DO NOT READ THIS.
At Emangelization there is a long interview with His Eminence Raymond Leo (which means “Lion”) Card. Burke. His Eminence is not going quietly into the good night, as I am sure his enemies had wanted… since they couldn’t get more. … Read More
Francis latest interview. Feminists won’t be pleased.
The Holy Father had an interview with the Italian daily Il Messaggero. It isn’t all that revelatory and I suspect that not too many people will be excited about it. There is little more statism in it. One thing to … Read More

Must read: Camille Paglia on feminist disrespect for men
I have enjoyed reading Camille Paglia for a long time. I fervently oppose many of her positions, of course. BUT… she is tough and honest and clear and, oh boy, can she write. Reading her scary-good prose is an unsettling … Read More

Another feminist attacks Pope Francis.
The feminists who can read, and there aren’t that many, have figured out Pope Francis and they don’t like him. They are already subtly trashing him. However, they know they are going against a populist icon. They don’t have a … Read More

The LCWR goat rodeo continues
The Leadership Conference of Women Religious has been in a demonstrable doctrinal tailspin for years. The LCWR has been strange enough that the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith got involved. The LCWR has its charter from the Holy … Read More
The Final Frontier of the Civil Rights Movement
One of the greatest victories of feminists and left – including their catholic dupes and water-carriers – was to divorce the issue abortion from civil rights (and in the context of the Church, social justice) and twist it instead into … Read More
