Vatican Nativity Unveiled in St. Peter’s Square: Today, the Vatican inaugurated the nativity scene and lit up the Christmas tree in St Peter’s Square. This year's nativity scene was created by the Diocese of Nocera Inferiore–Sarno, which has close links to St Alphonsus Maria de Liguori. His relics are venerated in Pagani, within the diocese. The nativity includes a figure of the saint, who founded the Redemptorists and wrote the Christmas hymn “Tu scendi dalle stelle”.

Neither Bergoglio nor Prevost appear in the Mantle of the Virgin of Guadalupe. The 46 stars on the Virgin of Guadalupe's mantle prove that Bergoglio and Prevost are not legitimate Popes These 46 stars on the tilma represent the 46 popes since the apparition of Our Lady of Guadalupe in 1531. They also correlate with the prophecies of Garabandal, which indicate that the End Times began after Benedict XVI. "I earnestly desire that a temple be erected for me here." The temple requested by the Virgin of Guadalupe is not the new modernist "basilica" that has been desecrated with syncretic ecumenical gatherings that violate the First Commandment and contradict the evangelizing message of the Virgin of Guadalupe. This site was also desecrated by the anti-apostolic visit of the false pope Bergoglio.
While more than 10 million pilgrims filled the streets of Tepeyac for the 12 December celebrations honouring Our Lady of Guadalupe, a serious internal crisis has been unfolding at the Basilica in Mexico City. According to InfoVaticana (15 December), the rector, Canon Efraín Hernández Díaz, has been removed from office and placed under a canonical investigation ordered by the Archdiocese of Mexico. The move followed an unprecedented formal complaint by the Guadalupe chapter to Cardinal Carlos Aguiar Retes. The canons accuse the rector of opaque financial administration, lack of transparency and accountability, and of bypassing them. The chapter shares legal responsibility for overseeing the sanctuary. According to the canons, these practices endangered both the material assets and the spiritual mission of Mexico’s most important Marian shrine. In response, Cardinal Aguiar removed the rector on 20 September and ordered a preliminary canonical investigation, opened on 3 October. The …More
Three Hong Kong judges found Jimmy Lai, 78, guilty under the National Security Law. Hong Kong media tycoon and Catholic convert Jimmy Lai, 78, was found guilty on Monday of two counts of conspiracy to collude with foreign forces and one count of sedition under a Beijing-imposed national security law. The founder of the now-defunct newspaper Apple Daily, had pleaded not guilty to all charges. The offences carry a potential life sentence, with sentencing expected at a later date. Lai has been in custody since 2020. The trial was heard by a panel of three judges without a jury, as permitted under the national security law, and has attracted worldwide attention. Critics argue that the case exemplifies the erosion of freedoms in Hong Kong. The United Kingdom has strongly criticised the verdict. In a statement posted on X, Britain’s Foreign Office described the prosecution as politically motivated and said that Lai had been targeted for peacefully exercising his right to freedom of expression. …More

As seen in recent months, Leo's Vatican at least "tries" to appear somewhat Catholic - although they also are continuing Francis' program of undermining the Faith apace. But hey, at least we got a nice creche scene this year and not some modernist monstrosity. Small blessings.

12/14/2025 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. This provocative headline appeared in an article on The Vigilant Fox on Wednesday: The Pandemic Revealed the Most Cowardly Society of All Time. We masked toddlers, banned funerals, and cheered censorship. COVID didn’t break us—it revealed who we really are. Scientific studies comparing the “morbidity” of COVID-19 have several methodological flaws. First, the author’s claim that COVID-19 is a real disease is false. COVID-19 was invented by appropriating ten already known upper respiratory infections, including influenza, to create a new disease name to justify a dangerous pandemic. The best evidence for this is the sudden and unexpected decline in influenza cases at the time COVID-19 was claiming its victims. The second, far more serious error in these studies is the acceptance of the PCR test, developed by the German charlatan Christian Drosten and some of his followers, as the gold standard for diagnosing this non-existent disease. The …
