The musings and meandering thoughts of a crotchety old man as he observes life in the world and in a small, rural town in South East Nebraska. My Pledge-Nulla dies sine linea-Not a day with out a line.
Mr McClarey comments on George Weigel's desperate and almost laughable attempt at defending the indefensible debacle of Vatican II.

Who are you going to believe, your lying eyes or George? Attributing all the ills of the Church today to Vatican II is a mistake. To deny that Vatican II produced a weaker Church which has often seemed to go with a resolutely anti-Christian tide among Western elites is to deny sixty years of evidence. Without Vatican II the current disaster of a pontificate would have been unthinkable. The sixty year anniversary is an opportunity to mourn and not to rejoice.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
