Well, the map is inaccurate as Bohemia voted for Ferdinand (and was quite literally the swing vote), though its diet later deposed him before he re-conquered it.

A fascinating alternate history could be written about a scenario where Richard Cromwell was somehow competent and Britain remained a Commonwealth (with hereditary succession) to the present... (similar to how Napoleon I was "Emperor of the French Republic" until 1809)
@polisci4bimbos
Yeah Bohemia, which Ferdinand controlled, voted for him. Bohemia’s (largely Protestant) nobility had rebelled two days prior to make Frederick of the Palatinate King, but at the diet they didn’t know that and voted Ferdinand.

And if it were really about promotion of the Ordinary Form, why wouldn’t he make promote Latin, ad orientem, etc. in the Ordinary Form that Sunday? Instead it seems like he wants people to go to “Gather”-esque masses rather than reverent ones (be they TLM or reverent NO).

Didn't the Danish Social Democratic Party adopt the most restrictionist immigration policy in Europe (and has subsequently been very popular & successful). I'm surprised other EU countries have not emulated that.

They clarify this in the post, and it is somewhat semantically confusing, but while Noah did not offer the Mass, but did make a valid sacrifice as a precursor to the Mass.

I don’t know what she means, but perhaps it is that we acclaim Christ in the Eucharist much as the crowd acclaimed Christ entering into Jerusalem, only to betray Him by our sin.

75 years of NATO/Atlanticism has done more damage to the Royal Navy’s ability to defend Britain than Phillip II, Louis XV, Bonaparte, and the Kaiser ever could…

WashU did the same as Notre Dame, and it has been very peaceful around campus since the administration shut the protests down (and we even have a fence all around the main campus to prevent outside disruptions-- walls work).

The irony of a beautiful rood screen being removed from a Catholic cathedral (by order of a prelate) only to end up in a CofE one should tell everyone all they need to know about the iconoclasm of the 1960s

I like +Barron a lot, and much of his work played a role in my conversion, but I don’t see why people consider him to be a “conservative?” Eg: He is a hopeful universalist. I don’t mean this as a critique of him, as he is ideal for evangelization, but he is at most a centrist.
Very interesting project... I only know Karamzin through his "Letters of a Russian Traveller," so this is new to me and seems fascinating. Also astounding that various substackers do more serious and interesting translation work than many modern academics.

I am baffled by his position. What is his reasoning (and the reasoning of many libs) for opposing confession? Does he dissent from the Church's position on justification?

His arguments (apart from being indistinguishable from those of "radtrads" in creating supposed discontinuity between old and new) make no sense. Where, for instance, in his view, in the pre-1970 liturgy are different ecclesiological views exposited?
@EricRSammons
More accurately it puts to lie the idea that those who dislike the Vetus Ordo do so out of loyalty to V2. If collegiality, one of the main (and best) parts of V2 is attacked by various officials to punish the "rigid conservatives," then the debate no longer has to do with V2.

Now that he has dropped out it is an open question whether or not they will make “Skibidi Harris” to “appeal to young voters…” if anything it would still be less terminally online than the “brat” nonsense.

You both should discuss/debate the matter. It would kind of be the religious counterpart to the Rufo-Yarvin debate (Redeemed Zoomer is very much a "dark elf").
Who at the New Yorker sat down and thought writing a hit piece on a children's media franchise would be a good use of their time? We have an utterly unserious media.

Much like Tony Annett, who (when pointed out in a review that government has grown since the 1970's in tandem with social liberalism and social decay) threw a hissy fit calling everyone who disagrees with him "libertarian." Liberalism is simultaneously libertine and intrusive.

@JLLiedl
When many Western Bishops (eg: the Germans) say change, they mean conforming to the world. When many of the African Bishops say change, they mean conforming the world to Christ. And as a result, the Church has many good fruits in Africa and few in contemporary Germany.
