Robert Semonsen February 16, 2022

German Cardinal Gerhard Müller, the former head of the Congregation of the Doctrine of Faith, has cautioned against the Church’s increasingly firm embrace of the Left’s secular progressivism and ‘wokism.’

Bad Times Call for Bland Masses: an Ode to Novus Ordo Liturgy

Bridget Ryder January 23, 2022

In my experience, it was at the Masses that were less spectacularly arranged, externally less festive, where I sensed true Christian festivity. My favorite Mass is still the uninspiring Mass of the average Catholic parish.

Germany’s Catholic Center Party Returns to Parliament

Robert Semonsen January 21, 2022

Ecclesiastical Newspeak and the Hatred of Catholic Tradition

Sebastian Morello January 14, 2022

Alberto M. Fernandez December 27, 2021

It is almost as if Don Simon Jubani was prepared to be a political prisoner.

Charles A. Coulombe December 25, 2021
