- I know a lot of people are mad that the Archbishop Sheen's cause for sainthood has been temporarily closed but despite the way it went down, is the slow down really a bad thing? He died in 1979, and that's too soon to talk about canonization unless you're talking about a martyr or a super saint who raised people from the dead, or went to a foreign pagan country and miraculously was able to speak the language and converted millions. I am not knocking the archbishop, I'm just saying slow down and stop running on emotion.
- The most well known Catholic blogs seem to be on Church politics, current events and the pope's doings. This is okay, but if you're looking for something different; or something devotional, I found some fine blogs and a website that are not widely known but definitely deserve to be.
- The Cloistered Heart is a wonderful blog, gorgeous to look at and a pleasure to read.
- Unum Sanctum Catolicum is a chewy, meaty blog. I always learn something when I stop by.
- Holy Card Heaven is simply beautiful.
- Blessed is She is all about the daily missal readings.
- Liturgica Latina is a great source of information.
- Those Catholic Men is written for men but I like it too.
- The Roman Martyrolgoy
- I've always wondered why Evangelicals and many Catholics have nothing to say about the plight of Christians in the Middle East. Other than the Franciscans I don't see much support for the beleaguered Christians in Israel either. In the comment boxes of various sites just this week I've seen many self proclaimed Evangelicals say that the Catholic and Orthodox of the Middle East aren't real Christians anyway. Archbishop Amel Nona has something to say to these people but they aren't listening. All those decades of ecumenicism doesn't seem to have produced much.
