  • Love the ANGER!

    Mostly glad and gentle and all that, but they do let out a bit of that ANGER! Yo! Keep it coming.

    P.s. Still, still mostly a Novus Ordo family, with strong Trad sympathies.

    Also formerly from Our Lady of the Visitation in Elizabeth CO.

  • Highly recommended!!

    Anyone who has been thinking about trying out the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM), definitely listen to this podcast. These guys portray the true feel of the Latin mass community with their positive vibes while also providing solid Catholicity in a way that is easy for anyone to understand.

Q: What is the one thing that you think, going forward in the future, that we'll need to be armed with to face these sort of difficulties?
I think they're looking for something else on the Church. The Church has everything, right? Not just a beautiful, Thomistic system, but also this elemental dimension of tremendous closeness to the cosmos.
