The Catholic Church is the one true Church founded by Jesus Christ upon St. Peter (Mt. 16:18-20;Jn. 21:15-17). Since the Second Vatican Council of the radical 1960's, many things have changed in the Roman Catholic Church, often for the worse, under the guise of "modernity". This spirit of change ushered in new theologies, sacraments, practices and disciplines. As a result, much of the traditional practices and traditional Catholic articles of faith are being ignored or simply trashed as being antiquated. Dedicated to the preservation of the Traditional Catholic faith and disciplines, A Voice Crying in the Wilderness was founded to pontificate on and document the happenings within the Catholic Church, as well as a soapbox for the publication of reviews and commentaries from a Traditionalist perspective.

G. K. Chesterton
There is something to be said for every error; but, whatever may be said for it, the most important thing to be said about it is that it is erroneous.
The Ottaviani Intervention
"Let us never forget: not all that is new is true and good merely because it is new. There are some opinions in theology which are, if not false, at least debateable. In their situation, it is a completely positive action to defend the basic data of Holy Scripture and of Tradition, to avoid permitting some truths of the Faith to be obscured, under the pretext of progress and adaptation." (Dec. 1962)
Pope Pius IX
"Therefore, in this great crisis for religion, because We are greatly concerned for the salvation of all the Lord's flock and in fulfillment of the duty of Our Apostolic ministry, We shall certainly leave no measure untried in Our vigorous effort to secure the good of the whole Christian family. Indeed, We especially call forth in the Lord your own illustrious piety, virtue and prudence, venerable brothers. With these and relying on heavenly aid, you may fearlessly defend the cause of God and His holy Church as befits your station... You must fight energetically, since you know very well what great wounds the undefiled Spouse of Christ Jesus has suffered, and how vigorous is the destructive attack of Her enemies. You must also care for and defend the Catholic faith ...For unless one preserves the faith entire and uninjured, he will without doubt perish forever."
St. Patrick
That which I have set out in Latin is not my words but the words of God and of apostles and prophets, who of course have never lied. He who believes shall be saved, but he who does not believe shall be damned. God has spoken.
Pope Leo XIII
"He scatters and gathers not who gathers not with the Church and with Jesus Christ, and all who fight not jointly with Him and with the Church are in very truth contending against God.”

St. Michael
Sancte Michael Archangele, defende nos in praelio. Contra nequitiam et insidias diaboli esto praesidium. Imperet illi Deus, supplices deprecamur. Tuque princeps militiae caelestis, Satanam aliosque spiritus malignos, qui ad perditionem animarum pervagantur in mundo divina virtute in infernum detrude. Amen.
St. Augustine
"For my part, I should not believe the gospel except as moved by the authority of the Catholic Church."
Santiago Matamoros
Ole Fashioned Ecumenism...
J. R. R. Tolkien
The board is set, the pieces are moving. We come to it at last... The great battle of our time.
The New Distributist League
St. Ambrose
"No one can be saved unless he believe in the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit."
S. Robertvs Cardinale Bellarminvs
"It is granted to few to recognize the true Church amid the darkness of so many schisms and heresies, and to fewer still so to love the truth which they have seen as to fly to its embrace."
St. Benedict
Ave Maria
Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum, benedicta tu in mulieribus et benedictus fructus ventris tui Jesus. Sancta Maria, mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatoribus, nunc et in hora mortis nostrae. Amen

...I have added your blog to the list of links to the website. After reviewing what you had on your sidebar, I concluded that you offer to trads multiple points of views which concern all traditionalists, sedevacantist and non-sedevacantist alike and so I figured it would be a good idea to put up your link on the site. Whenever I write something I can use some of the resources that you offer to everybody. Thank you for your hard work. God bless you,
O.L.L.C.
I found and like your blog very much. I am not catholic but love Chesterton and am involved with The Acton Institute and friend of Father Robert Sirico.
