Easter Triduum at the OK Corral
What it means is that traditional Catholics have been set up for their final and absolute elimination from the Church.
Cardinal Roche on the Vatican II Rupture
I find myself, here, and not for the first time, defending the words of the Second Vatican Council against an interpretation which would impute to them theological novelties incompatible with the perennial teaching of the Church.
What is the Vatican’s Target?
There is a reason why they are targeting the diocesan TLM and not the FSSP or the other "former Ecclesia Dei" communities.
The Schismatic Trads Were Right? Francis’ New Rescript on the TLM
We have now heard from the Holy See in unambiguous terms that the integration into parish life of Catholics attached to the older Missal is a thoroughly bad thing. The ones with a schismatic mentality, whatever that was supposed to mean, are the good ones: or at least the less bad ones.

If you do, everything will collapse!” The warning is clear enough. Any sensible person would rapidly desist, lest their one seemingly minor act bring…
Two “Disobediences” Compared
Take the well-informed young priests of today. They know, thanks to studying Benedict XVI and other authors, that the Novus Ordo has serious flaws and lacunae, to which the TLM can supply remedies.
