Gabriela Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 If you're a seminary student or aspiring priest and you know of any websites that seminary students or priests frequent, please post them here. I've got a few already, but not nearly all that's out there, I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihil Obstat Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I happen to know that my priests are regular readers of Rorate Caeli and The Remnant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nihil Obstat Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Just now, Peace said: Both of those sites need a serious facelift though. Hire a web designer! Well, Rorate is just the simple old-school blog format. It works for their content. Clear and not cluttered. I rather like The Remnant's layout. Highlights new content and separates the different sorts of content. I am sure they could benefit from a design consult though; as I understand it they are really strapped for cash.

At least it's not Church Militant. In all seriousness, I'd be worried about the seminarians I know reading too much of either of those. Both seem to me to breed a hostility to bishops and superiors that I wouldn't think healthy for seminarians. I think it's important for priests to stay up-to-date on the happenings within the Church, and in that case perhaps they'd be helpful.

Amppax Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Also, I need to read thread titles. This is a thread about websites for priests. Got it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not CMTV. Yeah, I would say it depends on the person, and especially what sort of support group that person has. I mean, a lot of seminarians over at Our Lady of Guadalupe? Personally I think they are fine. But so many of these seminarians and priests are so isolated from their confrères. An isolated priest is a recipe for disaster.

(which is why I'm asking, to advertise a new preaching website). Ah. I gotchu. Catholic Culture's website, I think they run ads, like for different Catholic publishing companies. Also OSV, National Catholic Register, every diocesan newspaper ever, um... If I thought about it more I can come up with a few more. It would be hard with sites like patheos or any blogs, because most seem to use Google ads (assuming that would be a negative). Also I'll send you a pm, just thought of some more.
