I’m Trying to be Measured. Bear With Me.

A priest-friend once uttered a line that, at the time, I’m sure he didn’t know would be so prescient. The context is literally not important. He said simply:

“There’s nothing worse than an old fag.”

And if you think this is uncharitable or unseemly I promise I will start posting excerpts from Heal Me with Your Mouth.

The new “guidelines for reconciliation” or whatever it’s called were released and Tucho just keeps Tucho-ing.

Case in point, according to the current occupants of the Vatican hierarchy, Fiducia Suplicans and Amoris Laetitia are part of the ordinary Magesterium. So much is wrong with the notion hings being spewed forth today.

As St. Louis Catholic said earlier. Only the Blessed Mother can sort this out for us.

Someone Else’s Initial Thoughts

The Timman over at St. Louis Catholic has posted his initial thoughts about the goings-on. Read them. I think they are truly good words.

Dunn Done Did It Again

My good friend Andrew Dunn has a great piece on his substack. An excerpt below. Please visit his page and show him some love.

“Does this look Catholic to you? Two hand-holding sodomites, in shorts with a F@#% the Rules message on display. I wonder if St. Peter would approve of such behavior in the Basilica of his namesake, on the site where he was martyred? Of course he wouldn’t, nor would Our Lord approve of the fact that these despicable sodomites were allowed to enter the Holy of Holies in this state of attire, with no intention of confessing their sins and amending their lives.”

Would You Believe They’re Back?…

A third clutch this summer:

These robins certainly know how to have a good time. Also, according to the AI’s, this is statistically impossible. Perhaps it’s the tiny sound system I installed playing Barry White on a loop.

Either way. I accept this as a gift from God as He is pleased to cause me to stop every day and marvel at His handiwork.

Did He Have a Stroke?

So first, I don’t cling rigidly to my own position. I cling to Christ, His Blessed Mother, and the Truth which He handed down through the ages. You know, the same truth that hasn’t changed because it can’t? The truth about His Church being the only means of salvation and how adulterers can’t receive Holy Communion and silly little things like that… Nice try though. Points for recycling Tucho’s favorite word, rigid.

As for the rest, I understand that a typo may be involved. Supposedly he said “points of encounter” and not “poems”. Either way, that is one of the gayest things I’ve ever heard. If it was poems, perhaps they’re Tucho’s porn poems? I don’t want those kinds of encounter. If it’s points, we’ll, you know what? It’s still gay.

And the best for last: “a means of growth for another.” I don’t think Oprah Winfrey could have come up with a line more pop-psyche-slop than that.

The Church needs to be more masculine right now, not more mescaline.

Pat Ast called. She says you’re a bit over the top.

Touchdown

Landed safely (if not very bumpy).

None it s time for everyone’s favorite horse dewormer…

Back in the Air…

Prayers for safe travel are always much appreciated.
