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

How the LCWR, Magisterium of Nuns, get around the Church’s teaching and hierarchy

Spiffy photo of real nuns on Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day!
For Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day, a friend sent me this spiffy photo of real nuns. I’ll bet the Magisterium of Nuns has boycotted Chick-fil-A. Tonight I will make chicken in solidarity with Chick-fil-A. By the way… on Monday I ate beef, … Continue reading
