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

What Card. Müller said about changes to teaching on the death penalty wasn’t really about the death penalty, but something else
This morning found me in a conversation between highly educated friends (among whom are former theologians of the CDF) about a LifeSite story saying that Cardinal Müller, the former Prefect of the CDF, “defended Pope Francis’ ability to change the … Read More
ASK FATHER: Invalid marriage because one was secretly “gay”
From a reader… QUAERITUR: My husband and I (both Roman Catholic) are separated. We separated in July after I learned he is secretly gay and has been meeting men for a decade, including before and throughout the entire time we … Read More
@JamesMartinSJ – the Bible might be wrong in condemning same-sex sexual behavior
This, folks, says just about everything. Interesting: "Where the Bible mentions [same-sex sexual] behavior at all, it clearly condemns it. I freely grant that. The issue is precisely whether the biblical judgment is correct. The Bible sanctioned slavery as well … Read More

ASK FATHER: How should good Catholics deal with homosexuals?
From a reader… QUAERITUR: Dear Fr. Thank you for the sterling work you do with your blog. Within my circle of friends at my accommodation we have a number of practicing homosexuals. In the pass I have avoided such people … Read More

The Rome “summit”, “gay” priests, and #sodoclericalism – Wherein Fr. Z rants.
You’ve probably heard that a book is timed to be released simultaneously in several languages at the beginning of the Roman episcopal “sex summit”. Bishops from around the world are to meet to discuss important problems that scandalize and wound … Read More
The “logical union of women’s ordination and sodomy”
I have noticed lately an uptick in chatter about women deacons, deaconettes, deaconesses, whatever. There was a conference at Fordham recently at which speakers (read: promoters) blew past the obvious problems of our lack of certainty about what ordination may … Read More
A conflicted Fishwrap v. Francis on homosexuals in seminary and priesthood
It took a while. They probably needed to get the ringing in their ears to stop after being gobsmacked. The National Sodomitical Reporter (aka Fishwrap) hardly loses any opportunity to defend that which is contrary to nature. However, Fishwrap is also mired … Read More
Francis: Homosexuals “should not be accepted into the ministry or consecrated life.”
