Public Opinion and Key Men

It is possible to establish a real doctrine regarding the power of Public Opinion. To begin with, we might ask ourselves what it would have consisted of in Paradise, before the sin of Adam and Eve. If they had not fallen, and if their descendants had continued to live in …

Dona Lucilia

A Lady from Better Times

With the end of the war in 1918, a period that would be dubbed by historians as Entre deux Guerres1 began. The harmonic chords of the waltz were replaced by the strident and cacophonous sounds of jazz. The staid and solemn horse-drawn carriage gave way, once and for all, to …

The Voice of the Popes

The Sin of the Century

Over the course of generations, the Christian mind has gained from the Gospel, as it is read in the ecclesial community, a fine sensitivity and an acute perception of the seeds of death contained in sin, as well as a sensitivity and an acuteness of perception for identifying them in …

Truly Queen

Mary of Good Success is Queen in the true sense of the word. She has majesty and, at the same time, goodness. She is a warrior and a victor. Her countenance reflects the certainty of victory.

Some Sophisms of the Contemporary World - I let the reader choose the title of this article
In one of his famous brilliant quotes, Joseph De Maistre makes the following analogy: “False opinions are like false money, originally struck by criminals and thereafter circulated by honest people, who perpetuate the crime without knowing what they are doing.”1 These “coins”, in general, have a name: sophisms. Sophistry is …

The Holy Lady Who Will Not Enter Heaven
Our fragile human nature contains two opposing laws within it: that of the flesh and that of the spirit. When we want to do good, it is wickedness that presents itself to us; when we strive for virtue, the desire of our members invites us to sin (cf. Rom 7:21-23). …

A Ship Without a Commander?
It is indisputable that the discovery of the Americas deeply marked the history of humanity. Although the desired goal when the great voyages began was different from what was in fact achieved – the original goal was to cross the Atlantic Ocean to reach the Indies – this undertaking still …

Church and World Events
While the world has been struck by numerous natural disasters in recent months, the Blessed Virgin seems to have wanted to manifest her protective action in many of them, symbolized by images that remain intact after the occurrence of some cataclysm. This is what recently occurred with a statue of …

Most Blessed and Chaste Embrace
On August 20, 1815, at Holy Communion, my Lord deigned to establish His throne in my poor heart. Ah, what a grace! It is impossible to manifest the love, the affection, the extraordinary charity my gracious Lord communicated to me, coming to me with great joy, accompanied by the noblest …

The Porous Fence and the Blank Standard
There is a peculiar parable, no doubt known to some of our readers, which sheds some light on the present moment for Catholics who truly want to embrace the right path. There was once a young man sitting on a fence. On the right side were God and His children; …

Where Will I Live?
Once upon a time there lived a poor and simple man called Manuel. He wandered about restlessly, looking forlorn. Why was he so troubled? The poor fellow had nowhere to live, and he longed for a place to call his home. The big problem was his lack of means, for …

While the King Sleeps…
In the savannahs of faraway Africa, there is a lord more powerful than the lion: silence. In the midst of the struggles for animal survival, it reigns not as a tyrant, but gently, providing the ideal environment for the most intrepid undertakings. Lioness in West Midland Safari Park, Bewdley (England) …

The Peace of Christ and the Peace of the World
If we were to ask the people of today what they most desire for themselves and for the world, the majority would certainly answer: peace! St. Augustine described peace as “a good so great, that even in this earthly and mortal life there is no word we hear with such …
