"I can't imagine anyone staying sane in today's world without saying the rosary of the Most Holy Virgin Mary while mediating on the mysteries"

The Bear highly recommends both "The Secret of the Rosary" and "The Secret of Mary" by St. Louis de Montfort, as well as, of course, his "True Devotion." His style is simple, sweet, and perhaps even naïve by today's standards, but he has Marian devotion dialed in like nobody else.

Also, the Divine Office.

And you sure that's a Big Cat?

Sigh. Removed by author due to duplication. The Bear always worries people will imagine all sorts of horrible Bearish things when they see a comment removed by him.

Dear Bear,

It is true that the letters between Big Cat (the mountain lion) and Sheriff Fred which were posted by the Catholic Monitor have a certain resemblance to correspondence between you and I. However, the content of your letter was cleverly disguised.

Mainstream Media: "Is America the Real Victim of Anti-Russia Sanctions?" & "Biden's arrogant anti-Russian sanctions have amounted to a price hike on working class Americans that have so far failed to weaken the Russian economy"

Mainstream Media Acknowledges Biden’s “Arrogant” Sanctions On Russia Are Damning Americans: @MaxBlumenthal Biden's arrogant anti-Russian sanctions have amounted to a price hike on working class Americans that have so far failed to weaken the Russian economy. His neocon policy accelerates the process of de-dollarization, diplomatic isolation & imperial decline. The mainstream new outlet asked "Is America the Real Victim of Anti-Russia Sanctions?": Remember the claims that Russia’s economy was more or less irrelevant, merely the equivalent of a small, not very impressive European country? “Putin, who has an economy the size of Italy,” Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said in 2014 after the invasion of Crimea, “[is] playing a poker game with a pair of twos and winning.” Of increasing Russian diplomatic and geopolitical influence in Europe, the Middle East, and East Asia, The Economist asked in 2019, “How did a country with an economy the size of Spain … ach

Dr. Geoffrey Hull is one such author. His The Banished Heart: Origins of Heteropraxis in the Catholic Church recalls that old saying that the truth is not between two positions, but rather above them. Hull examines the roots of the twentieth century liturgical overhaul by rising above the disputes between liberals and traditionalists that have raged on for five decades and taking a long, far-sighted look back centuries more, to the late first millennium, when the Roman liturgy was maturing, the Roman patriarchate was expanding its missionary presence in Western and Eastern Europe, and the
