“The Luminous Mysteries are my favorite.” “I cannot hear the priest at the Latin Mass.” “I might attend the Latin Mass, but I do not want to go against Vatican II.” I was with a group of people recently who had gathered to discuss the book Christus Vincit by Bishop Athanasius Schneider. These were some…
It has become arguably the most contentious topic among orthodoxy-loving Catholics in the Church today – did Benedict XVI truly resign the papacy, and, consequently, was Pope Francis legitimately elected, and is he a true pope? There are quite a number of theories surrounding this interlinked pair of questions. Theories drawn from canon law, from…
On this episode of the 1P5 Podcast, Kenny Tamargo joins Steve to discuss the joys and challenges of conversion to a more authentic Catholic life in the 21st century, and about building real bridges – not the James Martin kind – between traditionalists and people in the mainstream Catholic parishes. It’s a story of growing…
In a new story today from Maike Hickson at LifeSiteNews, we learn that the head of the German bishops relief agency, Msgr.

With the progressive envelope-pushing discussion in the Church of whether women might be “deacons” or “priests” (in spite of repeated statements to the contrary by the Magisterium),…
Pope Francis has been sick for the past week, missing public appearances and skipping his own Lenten retreat. As rumors mounted that he may have been exposed to novel coronavirus, the Vatican comes out and says, “Nope.” Kind of. But not exactly.
