Pope Francis’ future tomb, at the feet of the Virgin Mary

It’s appropriate that his flesh will rot under the same roof as Cardinal Law’s.

The Catholic Thing

I would bet that those who are Catholic regarding abortion are, roughly, the same cohort who believe in the Church’s true Eucharistic Doctrine.

Elderly Belgian Woman Wants to Become 'Deacon', Sues Church

“At the moment” it is impossible. At this point, I think we can say that Nuchurch “deaconesses” are a “done deal.”

Civilize It: Unifying a Divided Church

@James Manning Of the relatively few people who care about the Church, more and more are coming around to traditional orthodoxy. And you’re probably right that they are trying to stem the bleeding. There’s just no chance that younger, more traditional Catholics are ever going to lend an ear to a forum that has McElroy and Flores, no matter who they are debating with. The bishops are receptive to …More

@James Manning Of the relatively few people who care about the Church, more and more are coming around to traditional orthodoxy. And you’re probably right that they are trying to stem the bleeding. There’s just no chance that younger, more traditional Catholics are ever going to lend an ear to a forum that has McElroy and Flores, no matter who they are debating with. The bishops are receptive to any solution that doesn’t include restoration, or even taking a critical view of the past 60 years.

Civilize It: Unifying a Divided Church

Falsely Accused: US Bishop Cleared Of Absurd Charges

What was absurd? Nothing has been clarified as to why he has been cleared. No priest who has ever committed any sort of misconduct with minors should ever be allowed to perform ministry at a parish, much less live in a parish rectory. The Vicar General is in charge of such matters. Perhaps we will find out that prior allegations were deemed untrue, but nothing is known about that as of now.

U.S. Senator Cites Hiroshima Bombing; Urges Israel To ‘Do Whatever Needs To Be Done…’

He’s also a Fiducia supplicans sort of fella.

Vatican Museums under fire from workers, local residents

The bishops are famous for agitating for labor regulations that put entrepreneurs out of business, while arguing that they should be completely exempt from having to treat their own employees as human beings.

Divine Office and Divine Contentment: A Reflection on the Liturgy of the Hours and the Present Moment …

I guess that the new breviary isn’t going to be approved until 2026, at the earliest? I wonder if a full, four volume set will ever be published, considering that the vast majority of those obliged to pray it do so on their phones nowadays. I can only imagine what the full set will cost, given that the old 4 volume goes for around $200 these days. I would not be surprised if they print up a one …More

I guess that the new breviary isn’t going to be approved until 2026, at the earliest?

I can only imagine what the full set will cost, given that the old 4 volume goes for around $200 these days. I would not be surprised if they print up a one volume, excluding the Office of Readings, and then make everyone pay for an annual subscription to have a digital version.

@Tom Morelli They are also dependent on expensive procedures, and cars that are ever more expensive to fix. And, the safe drivers pay for the bad ones.

Karl Denninger wrote a good column today about how corrupt every sector of the insurance industry is. Since they are regulated to a 10% profit margin, they can only make more money by having more total claims, or, more expensive claims. This is especially true in auto insurance, and healthcare, but certainly is not limited to just those. But, driver safety and better overall health do nothing for …More

Promo video for "new" Church Militant vows "no wasteful extravagance", introduces media personalities …

I’d never heard of him, but he probably traded on his name, since he was serving in the Boston area at the time (Ray Bourque was the name of the best hockey player in Boston in the 80s and 90s). Sickening.

Cardinal Marx: ‘Global, Synodal Church’ Without ‘Purely Clerical Rule’ Is ‘In The Making’

If clerics don’t rule, there will be no more clerics. He’s essentially talking about suppressing the munus regendi.

Fr. Greg Boyle, Nancy Pelosi among Presidential Medal of Freedom recipients

There are priests like him everywhere. I know a priest who didn’t believe in voting, and had never registered, but did in 2016 so that he could vote for Hillary. He preached about it, in fact.
