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

King Alfred, the great White Horses, and today’s creeping heathen weeds

“By the pricking of my thumbs…”
At LifeSite there is an interview with Peter Kwasniewski. He opines that the decentralization of authority in liturgical matters could recreate an environment in the Church much like the 70’s. Of course that would accelerate the growth of desire for … Read More

Expert canonist Ed Peters explains the sit to Matthew Boudway (Nihil habens) re: Fr. Murray
This is something that every parish priest and seminarian should read and commit to memory. It is at the heart of many controversies (not excluding the mendacity of the Left trying to edge out the Truth with innuendo and ambiguity). … Read More
