A Theologian Corrects the Archbishop of San Francisco.

A much needed, but loving emendation. Noted theologian Whoopi Goldberg, ThD, censured His Grace Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone yesterday for his decision denying House Speaker Nancy Pelosi the sacrament of Holy Communion, this because of her unrepentant support of abortion. Dr Goldberg, in her typically articulate manner, expressed this dissent in the academic forum known asContinue reading “A Theologian Corrects the Archbishop of San Francisco.”

What Would We Do Without Experts?

Once again, what used to be bad for you is now good. Who among us, save those with naturally occurring skin protection, hasn’t been warned as a child or adult to avoid overexposure to the sun, the “expert” consensus being that “healthy look” could lead to melanoma? As there have been several upticks in inContinue reading “What Would We Do Without Experts?”

Joe Biden and the Democrats’ America.

Salena Zino writes: Imagine being a parent on a budget, down to your last container of formula: You drive to four different grocery stores, two Wal-Marts, a Target and a Rite-Aid, racking up more than 60 miles in pursuit of nourishment for your child.

Noted with Pleasure.

Delightful music, off the beaten track. Your Tatler, who claims fair knowledge of the classical repertoire, confesses he had never heard these charming pieces, nor any others by their estimable composer, until today. While Emile Jaques-Dalcroze has a decent biographical entry in Wikipedia (which is usually reliable so long as the subject cannot possibly supportContinue reading “Noted with Pleasure.”

Pelosi Finally Excommunicated.*

After 35 years. Well, isn’t this a fine how-do-you-do for liberal Catholic-Episcopalian wannabees? Doddering Nancy Pelosi, after 35 years enthusiastically supporting the killing of babies in the womb, in direct violation of Catholic teachings (CCC 2270-75), has finally been banned by Archbishop Cordileone of San Francisco from receiving at mass. The howls of the woundedContinue reading “Pelosi Finally Excommunicated.*”

And Now, Some Badly Needed Comic Relief.

From the New York Post: He’s really gonna do it.
