Benny X to the V to the I Roundup

Filed under: Catholic, Blog Reviews — Der Tommissar @

It’s time to take a spin around the web…wheeeeeeee!

The SSPX puts out a press release. I like the tone of it.

Irish Elk hurt my mind. I so choked back a laugh I think my heart stopped for a second. Coffee everywhere!

Roman Catholic Blog points out some prayers to say for the Pope from Catholic Tradition.

Father Ethan (I can understand not wanting some anonymity when online, but I do wish Father would mention his last name. If my mom ever reads I referred to a priest as “Father ‘Firstname’” she’ll get the wire coat hanger and go all “Mommy Dearest on me.) says: The JPII generation of priests are very happy to have Pope Benedict XVI. I am one of them.

Superhawk over at Right Wing Nuthouse says:
Now, I’m not a believer but even I can grasp the position of the Church’s hierarchy. If, by their lights, God tells them that this is the way it is, liberals here and elsewhere are going to have about as much influence in changing that position as the sun has of coming up in the west or setting in the east.

He then goes off on those critical of the Pope. “Slugs”.

Confederate Yankee shows us the reaction of the Tolerant Left at the DU. (It’s a sad day when the best aspect of a new pope is that he’s likely to die soon.)

The force that is Dale Price at Dyspeptic Mutterings writes:

But it’s not going to happen like that. He’s Benedict XVI, not Kickass Micromanager I. Will he take a firmer hand? Almost certainly. Will he more forcefully confront the centrifugal forces of dissent within the Church? Yep (and that will be interesting to watch, too). Will, at the end of the day, he have a collection of heads mounted over the windows of St. Peter’s? No. Collegiality, folks.

Mark Levin Fan carries an audio clip of Mark Levin discussing the new Pope with William Donohue.

Beth at My Vast Right Wing Conspiracy celebrates the election.

The Rottweiler Puppy:

So, Ratzinger’s own countrymen hate him almost as much as Guardian hacks? Damn! It looks as though the poor, old guy will have to make do with the love and adoration of the world’s remaining 1 billion Catholics. Still, he’ll probably get by. Somehow.

From Sticks and Stones: But of course when your God is moral relativism that doesn’t make much sense to you.

And The Nashif Report Covers the election in his inimitable style.

  3. I saw your site in a Catholic blogroll, but not sure I was expecting what I got. I’m certain to return here in the near future. :)

    As an aside:

    I’ve just “ended” coverage of the Papal Ascension on my blog.

    In the blogpiece I mention below, I wrap-up all my thoughts since 2 April, including mentioning MSM treatment of recent events.

    Why are We So Afraid of Benedict XVI?

    Cheers,
    Victoria
