Site: Padre PeregrinoMy post-Mass meditation usually comes from a 19th century book of Jesuit Meditations. It's a phenomenal book. The meditation following Sunday's Mass was about enduring persecutions in light of the Sermon on the Mount. Before we get to the topic at hand, How To Pray for the Enemies of Holy Mother Church, I want [...]

Site: Padre PeregrinoWe all know the Bible and saints put the interior life far ahead of the exterior life. However, the enemy of human nature often convinces us that we're the exception.

Site: Padre PeregrinoAs you know, for the first seven years of my priesthood, I offered the new sacraments. The last seven years I have offered exclusively the old sacraments.

Site: Padre PeregrinoIn the more righteous days of Christendom, Catholic countries did indeed reserve the death penalty for men or women who had killed children.

Site: Padre PeregrinoIn Archaeologism Part I, I demonstrated that Popes from 1786 to 1947 condemned the heretics projecting Protestant notions of liturgy onto the early Church under pretext of "archeology" or "Church history."

Site: Padre PeregrinoBefore looking at the Synod of Pistoia, let's define Archaeologism (also called antiquarianism.)

Its distinguishing characteristic is an excessive value placed on those Catholic practices which came earlier in historical-chronological succession. For the [...]
