about this site
Catholic Sensibility is a personal blog by a Catholic layperson with comments and occasional other writings by Catholics and non-Catholics. We make no particular claims to have the completeness of a Roman Catholic expression of Christianity. It contains opinion, interpretation, and personal musings. That’s it. Nothing official or authoritatively connected to the Magisterium.

Another Bishop Under Fire
This latest episcopal misadventure has sort of a Mahony in February vibe. Or Bishop Bill, if you prefer. Given that Roberto Gonzalez Nieves is not a cardinal, but more than an Outback bishop, I suspect this will go less successfully … Continue reading
Pickled Peppers
From CNS today: Using a phrase that translates literally as “the face of a pickled pepper,” Pope Francis said that when Christians have more of a sourpuss than a face that communicates the joy of being loved by God, they … Continue reading
The Frequently Scheduled One

Trampolines
The piece on Rock’s Twitter feed caught my eye. Pope Francis addressing women religious in Rome, more so. Especially this bit: We think of the harm inflicted on the People of God by men and women of the Church who … Continue reading
Pacem In Terris 46-47: Relations Between Individuals and the Public Authorities
What is the status of a citizen, especially a believer, with regard to her or his legal government and associated authorities? Pope John cites the Golden Mouth, as well as Pope Leo XIII: 46. Human society can be neither well-ordered … Continue reading
FBV 33
Saint Paul’s third and final entry in this round-of-27: So faith, hope, love remain, these three; but the greatest of these is love. So far, so good, for the apostle to the Gentiles, at least in the Twilling Twenty-Seven. Though … Continue reading
