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

Keep your eyes and ears open for “lived reality” language
At Fishwrap there are a couple things today which exemplify the starting point of the Left. First, I note a revealing comment by the Wile E. Coyote of the catholic Left. MSW wrote, inter alia, about the recent death of … Read More
A “puzzled” and “surprise” Card. Kasper is “furious”
You know how Communion in the hand was accomplished. You know how the use of “altar girls” was achieved. Libs intentionally violate the law until the law is changed. That’s what happened. Moreover, even the restraints and caveats in the … Read More
A limerick about a famous modern churchman
A couple notes. First, if your German is not up to speed, Barmherzigkeit is “mercy”. Second, … later on. From Ignatius His Conclave: Said the Cardinal, “Don’t be afraid Barmherzigheit is my trade, In amorous dealings Give way to your feelings; … Read More

Shared Communion with Protestants? Sacrilege and Blasphemy
UPDATE: From a friend in email: It would seem to make little difference in pastoral practice at this point, I think, to admit Lutherans to Communion: most of our own Catholic people don’t believe in the Real Presence and … Read More
Peter Kwasniewski: Why tradition is important and reverence alone isn’t enough
Over a Rorate there is something so good that it compels me to overcome even their animosity toward me, extend an olive branch again, and direct you there to read patiently and completely. Peter Kwasniewski of Wyoming Catholic College (where … Read More
