Linz Diocese Presses Charges: Statue Will Be Restored

@Sean Johnson - I wouldn't support a public whipping. Mostly because I'm afraid he'd like it.

Linz Diocese Presses Charges: Statue Will Be Restored

Ah, woodwork. That explains how our favorite vandal could pull it off relatively quietly and quickly. Also, now we know it is presumably flammable. Not that I would condone arson.
Now the question is how does one press charges against an anonymous person?More

If the Traditional Latin Mass is Banned, Many Attendees Will Simply Leave the Church

Story time - I went to a smallish East Coast Catholic college that was known as being conservative at the time. Conservative but Novus Ordo. I made a lot of friends who took their faith seriously in that environment. But after graduation... well, 20 years later, and I'm the last one standing and the only traddie.

I can't bring my son up in the new Mass. I've seen what it does to even intelligent and faithful Catholics over a lifetime.

Documentary Claims Feds Are Building Detention Facilities In Every State

Not a new theory. It's been around at least 20 years.
Look, we can't buy in to every theory out there if for no other reason that there's a lot of disinformation put out by bad actors.More

The First Secret of Fatima

It's an interesting read, and the author makes some good points, but I doubt the authenticity of the letter presented at the end (although to be fair the author makes no claim of truth regarding it).

Thanks. I hadn't seen his video today yet. I'll be sure to check it out.

Liturgical Extremism: Francis to Ban All Latin Masses

Rorate has been wrong before. While it wouldn't surprise me if this were true, it's also possible Francis is trying to plug some leaks by giving out different misinformation to various suspects and seeing what pops up.

Liturgical Extremism: Francis to Ban All Latin Masses

I want to believe that, but why not? I'm aware of what St. Plus V wrote in the way of condemnation of any hierarch who would attempt to rescind the Mass, but I don't believe he anathematizes them.
I don't believe a Pope has the authority to rescind a legitimate liturgy as defined in Quo Primus because it's part of the Deposit of Faith. But I don't think Quo Primus is the magic bullet we all hope …More

That gives Biden too much credit. Francis isn't a senile moron. He knows exactly what he's doing.

@Naomi Arai - Russia still has the highest abortion rate in the world. There are no "good guys" in this conflict. Same with Israel/Hamas.
