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

Latin America needs a revolution: a liberal and Catholic revolution
Liberation Theology is having a bit of a revival. Is this good? I am skeptical. The problem with the Left is that they talk and talk with all sorts of grand words but they don’t explain how to create wealth … Read More
When you hear talk of Liberation Theology, don’t be fooled.
You, like I, have been hearing a lot these days about a Church of “the poor” and a rehabilitation of Liberation Theology. This has caused concern for some who are doctrinally coherent and orthodox and elation for liberals. The following … Read More
