"For me, the first pastoral duty is to tell the truth, to give clear, unambiguous teaching and to point out and reject dangers and errors. In this, too, the Church shows herself in all her goodness" (Fr. Sebastian Tromp SJ).

Side note: Diane Montagna's revelations - which, to be clear, I consider well-intentioned, serious, and historically meritorious - have, in my opinion, led to two things: 1) further proof of the complete untenability of the situation, 2) a considerable complication of a solution.

"A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion." (Prov. 18:2)

Ottaviani: “What most horrifies me is the new wound being inflicted on Latin in the liturgy … The reason would be that many [priests] do not understand Latin. I am astonished that anyone could be ordained a priest without knowing Latin well.”

Set a reminder for my upcoming Space! Day 10 of our powerful 33-day preparation for Total Consecration to Immaculate Mary. Today’s Saint of the Day reading will be all about Saint Mary Magdalene! Join us in prayer. 🙏

I'm breaking my little fast from posting on X to wish everyone a very happy Feast of Saint Mary Magdalene. A fitting quote from the Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen for today's Feast: "Strong passions are the precious raw material of sanctity. Individuals who have carried…

"That is what is specifically Catholic, that we know with absolute certainty that God appears on earth in space & time, that it is not an event that happened in the past, which we can read about, but that what we perceive in Holy Scripture is present, here & now!" (Fr. H. Milch)

Thanks to His Eminence for this comment. Incidentally, there are also popular devotional texts *for attending Mass*, cf. e.g. saintland.com/devotional-pra… Fr. A. Doerner brilliantly refuted "hyperliturgism" (= "only liturgical texts are valuable") in his book "Sentire cum Ecclesia".

July 22 is the Feast of St. Mary Magdalene, "the Apostle to the Apostles." Learn about her life, and learn ways to celebrate her feast (don't miss the 13th c. song about her!) at FishEaters: fisheaters.com/customstimeaft…

“The religion of Christ makes patriotism a law. There is no perfect Christian who is not a perfect patriot.” —✠Cardinal D.-J. Mercier

"Christian love of country is not just a feeling, and certainly not a desire for revenge, nor is it sentimental populism, but rather a moral duty that drives us to take a lively interest in the welfare and woes of the people." (Joseph Cardinal Höffner)

"Mary Magdalen, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, through love of the truth, washed away in her tears the defilement of her sins, and the words of the Truth are fulfilled which He spake: Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much." (St. Gregory the Great)

The hymn of the Lauds (an excerpt below) of St. Mary Magdalene, Penitent (feast: 22 July) is one of the most beautiful of the Breviarium Romanum. - The relic of her skull is housed in an ornate golden reliquary at the Basilica of Saint-Maximin-la-Sainte-Baume in southern France.

To put it bluntly, very exaggeratedly, and only with the necessary distinctions, one should consider, especially in public debates, a dictum by Gómez Dávila: "The true Catholic hides his faith, not because he is ashamed of the faith, but so that the faith is not ashamed of him."
