I was very glad to talk yesterday to @sitsio and @ChooseAgape__ about Fr James Mawdsley, the TLM, the Jews, Holocaust denial and fascism -- quite a stimulating set of issues! Thank you both for publishing the hour-long podcast video: link in reply.

This won’t end well.
Hi @SouthernRailUK. Your station staff are actively opening the barrier for anyone who refuses to pay. I see this time and time again. When I asked your staff why they let through one gentleman for free he said “I don’t want to get stabbed”. If he thinks this gentleman is.

Literally no one thinks this.
One of the biggest mistakes traditional Catholic parents make is…. Thinking that the liturgy they attend will have a greater impact on the kids’ faith than the way they treat their children in the home. I would like to say it’s both/and but I don’t think it’s even close.

Today, the Feast of the Annunciation, is the final day for booking the @latinmassuk Walsingham Pilgrimage! Don’t leave it too late! Link in reply. Just arrived: Pilgrims’ Walking Schedules, and a prayer card specially for the cooking team, dedicated to Bl Humphrey Prichard.

Yes absolutely, and it is a good thing.
Honest question for Catholics: (or Orthodox for that matter). Can you pray to saints to pray to saints for you? Can I pray to Thomas Aquinas to pray to Augustine to pray to St. Paul to pray to God? Can I set up a personal prayer chain of my favorite saints? Why can't I?.

These pews stuck in my mind because I was looking at Simon Jenkins’ book ‘Britain’s 1000 Best Churches’ and he thought the illustration of Lust was ‘a loving couple’. He hadn’t noticed the jaws of hell literally around their feet. Great stuff. 2/2.

Actually pews for the faithful existed before the Reformation, though they hadn’t really take off. Saw some fab late medieval Catholic pews in Norfolk once decorated with carvings of the 7 deadly sins. Whether they were a good thing, though… 1/2.
Catholics Only:. What is one Protestant innovation that made its way into the Catholic Church that you are thankful for?. I’ll go first: Pews.

Easier said than done if you’ve been excluded from the academy and devoted yourself to flipping burgers to make ends meet.
The academic humanities are dying in the US. Conservatives have a priceless opportunity to "take the culture" simply by filling the void with very high quality content.

The first St Catherine's Trust Summer School took place in 2005, so this is our 20th anniversary. The friendships formed at our Summer School help to knit together Catholics attached to the TLM all over the country. Please support our work (link in reply). 4/

Our Summer School is not just a 'camp': we offer the children something intellectually substantial. In a short week we introduce them to Latin, drama, history, philosophy, and Greek, have catechism, and all sorts of activities. 3/

We have Sung Mass each day, and sung Compline, as well as Rosary. In the week we also have Benediction and Stations of the Cross. We are grateful to @OxfordOratory for allowing us to have Mass in their lovely church on our outing to Oxford. 2/

More photos of the St Catherine's Trust Summer School which concluded on Saturday. It is sponsored by @latinmassuk , parents, and supporters. Below: we have to create a make-shift chapel, as the venue, despite being a Catholic one, doesn't have a chapel big enough for us. 1/

No, you’re the Judean Popular Front, and your biggest enemies are the Popular Front of Judea.
Sedevacantists are the new Maccabbean Warriors. In the same way the Maccabbeans took back Jerusalem from the Hellenized King Antiochus IV Epiphanes, we will take back Rome from the Modernist "Popes". Unless Jesus Himself beats us to it. My Immaculate Heart will triumph!.

Fair question. I’ve never understood Erastianism.

The destruction of Blackwells as a serious bookshop is really upsetting.
I’m most nostalgic for the second-hand section on the top floor of Blackwells in Oxford, which disappeared during the pandemic. I found absolute treasures there at very low prices. All gone.
