The Vatican’s decision to adopt cartoonish, trivialized symbols, such as the blue-haired ‘Luce’ mascot, is a symptom of a disturbing shift within the Church. The current trend moving the Church away from Her treasury of glorious art to commercialized trinkets is a mere triviality to many, but the history of this move is darker than most realize.

An urban opera called “La porte des ténèbres” (“The Gates of Hell”) featured gigantic machines rolling around the streets of Toulouse.

Last week we discussed the significant linguistic issue in the Vatican translation of the Pope’s Italian statement “Tutte le religioni sono un cammino per arrivare a Dio” which the live translator translated as “every religion is way to arrive at God.”

For 45 years I’ve read the New York Times in its print edition almost each and every morning, together with the Wall Street Journal. Until about a decade ago, I also read four of California’s leading newspapers in similar fashion, but as they declined into just pale shadows of what they once had been, I abandoned them, a decision made easier when the Los Angeles Times and the Sacramento Bee stopped local delivery in my area; and given the huge decline in the quality of the Gray Lady in recent years, one of these days it may suffer that same ignominious fate. Meanwhile, for the last quarter century, I’ve balanced these very mainstream morning sources of information with a wide variety of extremely alternative news and opinion websites on the Internet, whose offerings have always provided a very different view of those same events.

Poorly formed expectations are premeditated resentments.
This piece of wisdom occurred to me recently while reflecting on the beginning of the sixth chapter of John’s Gospel. Our Lord performs the miracle of the multiplication of the loaves and fish as a sign to the people that they might believe in him. The people, however, had very clear expectations for Jesus: they were going to make him a king so as to have a constant supply of miraculous bread and fish.

It’s been said that conservatives view leftists as people with bad ideas, while leftists view conservatives as bad people, period. My personal experiences on social media reinforce this. Any attempt to engage a leftist in a dialogue is futile. There is no bridging the chasm. Not only are leftists unable to construct arguments, they fail to even grasp what an argument is. Logic and facts escape them. It’s not that they have bad ideas–they don’t have ideas at all.

Catholics are rightly incensed by the 26 July performance by a group of drag queens and dancers of an apparent “parody of the Last Supper” during the opening ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympics, which Bishop Robert Barron of Minnesota labeled a “gross mockery of the Last Supper.” The interpretation of the performance as a mockery of the Church’s most important rite was ubiquitous in responses to the event: Elon Musk called it “extremely disrespectful to Christians.” Clint Russel, host of the Liberty Lockdown podcast, declared: “There are 2.4 billion Christians on earth and apparently the Olympics wanted to declare loudly to all of them, right out of the gate NOT WELCOME.”

A thriving traditional pilgrimage in Spain has been prohibited from holding its customary end of pilgrimage traditional Mass in the Marian shrine of Covadonga.
In a July 6 social media post, organizers announced that the Vatican had intervened to restrict the Our Lady of Christendom traditional-Mass walking pilgrimage, which draws numerous young families despite being only in its fourth year in Spain.
