Our Lady of Grace

"Let us not imagine that we obscure the glory of the Son by the great praise we lavish on the Mother; for the more she is honored, the greater is the glory of her Son. There can be no doubt that whatever we say in praise of the Mother gives equal praise to the Son." — St. Bernard of Clairvaux

“We are here to colonize heaven, not make things better on earth.”

Msgr. Ronald Knox

Transubstantiation

The Catechism of the Catholic Church: 1376: The Council of Trent summarizes the Catholic faith by declaring: “Because Christ our Redeemer said that it was truly his body that he was offering under the species of bread, it has always been the conviction of the Church of God, and this holy Council now declares again, that by the consecration of the bread and wine there takes place a change of the whole substance of the bread into the substance of the body of Christ our Lord and of the whole substance of the wine into the substance of his blood. This change the holy Catholic Church has fittingly and properly called transubstantiation.”

Fulton Sheen: Fatima & Islam

“Archbishop Sheen held that Our Lady did not appear in the only place in Portugal with a Muslim name (Fatima was named after a Muslim princess who converted to the Catholic faith) simply to convert Russia. She came also for the conversion of the Muslim people because, he believed, unless a great number of Muslims were converted, there would never be peace in the world,” explains Father Andrew Apostoli, postulator of the Fulton Sheen cause.

POPE PIUS XII

MAKE THE CHURCH GREAT AGAIN!

Fr. Z on The Last Things

If we lose sight of our proper end, or goal, then we start to screw up other things. For example, two people (or more, I guess) of the same sex might get a notion that they can get married, or that it is okay to have sexual relations with such a person. They go dreadfully wrong and lost on bad paths. To recover our sense of direction, we need to contemplate again the Last Things. One way to do this is through the recovery of ad orientem worship!

Pope Benedict XVI

The more vigorously the primacy was displayed, the more the question came up about the extent and and limits of [papal] authority, which of course, as such, had never been considered. After the Second Vatican Council, the impression arose that the pope really could do anything in liturgical matters, especially if he were acting on the mandate of an ecumenical council. Eventually, the idea of the givenness of the liturgy, the fact that one cannot do with it what one will, faded from the public consciousness of the West. In fact, the First Vatican Council had in no way defined the pope as an absolute monarch. On the contrary, it presented him as the guarantor of obedience to the revealed Word. The pope's authority is bound to the Tradition of faith. … The authority of the pope is not unlimited; it is at the service of Sacred Tradition.
