UPDATE:
Here’s a clip from a “premium content” video for some Roman Sojourn Donors. It’s nothing special, just part of my morning walk through the area to get some food stuffs for the day and to say hello to a few people as the day gets underway. And a splendid day it was in Rome.

This is interesting from the great canonist Ed Peters
Holy days of obligation occasion disregard for canon law in the VAST majority of Catholics, provoke anxious consciences in a small but notable number of others, and augment the devotion of the devout not a whit. Abrogate the obligation and restore holy days to their proper date.

One of the presidential candidates is pretty openly anti-Catholic.
As Senator, Kamala Harris tried to stop the nominations of three judges because they were members of the Knights of Columbus. https://t.co/Mvb5yOMua3 pic.twitter.com/YbGFEY0YCF
