Open Discussion: Your Thoughts on International, National, Church News, Interests… Whatever!

Editor writes... Among the suggestions for ideas on how to best utilise the blog as we approach its closure in July, nobody suggested this one - an open forum for bloggers to post their thoughts on ... whatever!  Still, that doesn't mean we can't have said open forum, so voila!  If this one proves popular,...

Duty of State Vs Religious Obligations – Clash?

From The Fatima Center... Faithful Discharge of Our Duties of State. If we perform our duties of state with the proper intention, and of course in the state of grace, we can make fitting penance in reparation for sins. Rather than doing them in the spirit of rancour, if we accept our long days, difficulties...

Closure of the Catholic Truth Blog…

Editor writes... First things first; as I promised in the May newsletter, Holy Mass will be offered for all our supporters and benefactors, as we close our apostolate. I invited Father Linus Clovis (left), to offer this Mass.  In fact, he has promised to offer two novenas of Masses.  The first from 1st June 2023 to...

Feast of Our Lady of Fatima – 13 May …

"I was a youth in 1960, but I clearly remember waiting with anticipation in 1960 for the Fatima secret to be revealed. Interest in Fatima was very strong then, the devotion was flourishing, and my parents – like so many others – were anxiously waiting for the Pope to open the sealed letter and...

The Death of Comedy – Not Funny…

A JOKE may be a small thing, but it is the most reliable indicator of liberty. There are no jokes in Islam, Ayatollah Khomeini sternly warned. Well, there are fewer jokes outside Islam now too. In virtually every aspect of our lives, areas which should be ripe for ridicule are increasingly fenced off...

Latin Mass Provision in Glasgow Reduced…Again. Are We Really Going to Roll Over & Accept This?

Editor writes... News started to come through to me earlier this evening that Archbishop Nolan has further reduced the TLMs in Glasgow, by suppressing the Mass in the Immaculate Heart of Mary parish in Balornock.  I asked around to see if it really was "news" or simply rumours.  Sources, Sources, Sources, was the theme of...

Should Laity Be Bound by the Seal of Confession?

From One Mad Mom... While she just came on my radar, I have a lot of issues with Alessandra’s ideas, but this one is solidly hypocritical and pretty much gossip, detraction, and slander rolled into one. I’m sure in her mind she’s just fighting for the little guys, but the problem is, the little guys...
