In the annals of the Great Unhinging, and in light of the great Saint Irenaeus, once you let go of Tradition and of the Church, there’s no telling where you might end up. I cringed so hard my face turned inside out pic.twitter.com/J5weKaeZxT — Joel Berry (@JoelWBerry) June 28, 2023
There are very few things in life about which we can be absolutely certain. Much of what we think we ‘know’, we actually have an opinion. It may be a very strong opinion, either that a given proposition is true, or that it is false. It may even touch upon certainty, or uncertainty. But a[…]

An intriguing and more inside take on Saint Thomas More and Saint John Fisher:
Contrary to what is reported on a certain website, I am not claiming that the SSPX is in ‘schism’ – only that the danger lurks within its mindset and modus operandi – We cannot build a Church without the papacy and outside of the office of Peter,- a fitting thought on the feast of Saints[…]
