Greetings! I came here from the Suscipe Domine forum. This seems like a great source for someone who loves books, so that is what draws me here.

God bless!

Welcome!

The various archives are now on the Interplentary File System (IPFS). See the "IPFS" links in the banner above.

I've removed this. IPFS takes up too much bandwidth.

I found this on Wikipedia: "Contrary to Library Genesis and Sci-Hub, not much is known about Z-Library in terms of its operation, management, commercial status and mission statement. Notably, Z-Library doesn't open its full database to the public."

LibGen does seem better. Its books are on the IPFS.

She's the great patroness of traditional Catholics!
She and her spiritual director, Bl. Raymond of Capua (Dominican master general), founded the Dominican Observant Reform Movement, which St. Vincent, fra' Girolamo Savonarola, et al. continued.
Her canonization was pivotal for ending the Great Western Papal "Schism".
Oret pro nobis!

the more opposing "factions," the more balanced ("just") the country will be.

The more decentralized the opposing factions are, the better, it seems.

I've disabled it for now. IPFS uses too much bandwidth. ☹
