I am joining the Martin Mosebach Fan Club. With every additional page of The Heresy of Formlessness that I read, it makes Fr. Fessio’s unfortunate usurpation-of-concept introduction seem more petty. For those of you who don’t know, Fr. Fessio decided it would behoove him to intro the book himself, published by his imprint Ignatius Press, [...]

Speaking of Heroes, I just read a story about an all-American bad-ass visiting Costa Rica who dispatched one of three armed robbers with his bare hands.
Did I mention he was in his seventies? Something tells me this guy was more than a simple retired military man. An old timer doesn’t just kill a 20-year old [...]

And his name is Bishop Salvatore Cordileone of San Diego.
As the choir chanted 16th-century Latin hymns by William Byrd, more than a dozen servers and priests walked with Bishop Salvatore Cordileone of San Diego down the aisle through a curtain of incense.

Another story is out this morning on the oversexualization of young girls. It’s become increasingly difficult to shield them from it without living in a cave.
It’s really sad. Perhaps the Archbishop of Torino could evaluate some of the trends here to understand what could have led a 13-year-old to pregnancy. It’s not too hard to [...]
