The Holy See is bound to Rome, not to the Vatican. Prior and beyond 1958 and till the end of times, as can be read in any theological manual.
The equalization of the Vatican with Rome is of rather recent origin.

Someone recently told me that O-bummer's birthday anniversary coincided with the Feast Day of St. Dominic. I don't know if this is true since I watch or read as little news reports as possible (as an elder gentleman told me, "It angries up the blood!").

From The Dominican Missal in Latin and English (Oxford: Blackfriars Publications, 1948), here is a Mass formulary appropriate for such a coincidence.

Thanks, Hobbledehoy for this and for several other of your posts. Because of you, i discovered archive.org and through them, many good e-books that would have otherwise been unknown or unavailable to me. I love reading the beautiful and truly good writings of our Church before the calamity struck, for me, it's a potent "antitoxin".
Maybe someday I'll have something good to share too!

You are very welcome, friend! This is the reason why I participate here at CathInfo.

Good Catholic reading is the antidote for all errors and disorders, whether doctrinal, moral, cultural, etc. It is great that the Universities are digitally archiving these old Catholic books, and offering them for free.

I look forward to that!

Attached is the prayer composed by St. Thomas Aquinas before study. It is good to pray this before reading Catholic books. It is taken from the book Breviary Prayers from the Roman Breviary: A Translation of the Communion and Occasional Prayers (Boston, Mass.: Society for the Propagation of the Faith, 1943).

Enjoy :reading: and pray
