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

Ridi, Pagliaccia! Sr. Kane smiling, through her tears.
National Catholic Fishwrap has published a talk by Sr. Theresa Kane. It is about what you would expect, a sustained and blinkered whine. It never ceases to amaze me that these people can’t see they are galumphing along toward oblivion … Read More
LCWR’s long-standing coverup of sexual abuse of children by nuns
The Dissenter’s Breviary, NCR, and the "magisterium of nuns", LCWR, are abusing the abuse crisis for their own ends. Have a look at the recent NCR piece, "Compromised hierarchy needs relational wisdom of women" by Charlene Spretnak. Spretnak draws an … Read More
