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

Sick of the LCWR? There are other sisters out there, you know.
The LCWR’s leadership will now debate whether or not they want the Church’s true Magisterium in their lives. They are poised to become irrelevant. Then, irrelevant, the biological solution will have its way with them and all their institutes, which have no … Read More
