Why most Jews are SILENCED by the MEDIA “They stole land from the Palestinians and they stole identity from Jews.” In this remarkable conversation, Rabbi Elhanan Beck — a Palestinian-born rabbi from Stamford Hill, London — shares his powerful story and deep insights into the clear distinction between Judaism and Zionism. He explains why true Judaism is rooted in faith, humility, and obedience to God, while Zionism, as he argues, transformed a spiritual religion into a political and national project divorced from its sacred origins. Together, we explore: What it truly means to be Jewish according to the Torah The 13 principles of faith outlined by Maimonides How Zionism emerged as a secular movement The Jewish understanding of exile and the promised land The peaceful vision of the Messiah in Jewish scripture Centuries of coexistence between Muslims and Jews This is a heartfelt and eye-opening discussion that challenges common narratives and offers a glimpse into an …More
World’s Largest Statue of Our Lady of Guadalupe Inspires Millions | Shalom World News The Virgin of Chalma, also called the Monumental Virgin of Oculina or the Virgin of Ahuehuete, rises from the heart of El Ahuehuete Millennial Tree Park in Ocuilan, Mexico, drawing millions beneath the protective gaze of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Towering 33 meters high and stretching 11 meters wide, this awe-inspiring sculpture claims the title of the largest Virgin of Guadalupe statue in the world and the grandest Marian monument on earth. Crafted by Mexican sculptor Víctor Gutiérrez, it was brought to life through a government initiative to boost religious tourism, capitalizing on its closeness to the Sanctuary of the Lord of Chalma, one of Mexico’s most beloved pilgrimage sites. Since its inauguration on August 30, 2017, the monument has beckoned visitors to ascend 640 stone steps to its base, and for those seeking a higher perspective, another 760 steps lead to a viewpoint at the Virgin’s head. …More
Bishop Hugh Gilbert of Aberdeen, Scotland, has expressed his “deep regret” regarding the tone, direction and key elements of a recent letter by the Transalpine Redemptorists. In a statement posted on his diocese's website on 24 October, he said that the letter “is incompatible with the Catholic sense of the Church’s unity”. The community of the Roman rite is within the Diocese of Aberdeen. On 16 October, it published a letter no longer recognising the 'modern church'. "After years of examination and experience, we have come to the regrettable conclusion that the traditional Catholic faith, the faith of all times and of the saints, is incompatible with the new, modern Church, the fruit of the Second Vatican Council. They simply cannot coexist in one body", the priests wrote. Bishop Gilbert remains "open to conversation with the Congregation". On Facebook.com, he added that he is "canonically obliged to withdraw from the priests of that Congregation their permission to celebrate Mass …More

On October 30, InfoVaticana.com published the pictures of Rev. José Castro Cea ("Josete") blessing two homosexual accomplices on a rooftop in Madrid in June 2022.

In June 2022, the Vatican’s notorious document Fiducia Supplicans had not yet been published. #newsTgsdqgfyvq
Gregory Baum, architect of Nostra Aetate and a perito at Council Vatican II, confessed to concealing homosexual sex life. Baum supported same-sex pseudo-marriage and the use of contraceptives and promoted anti-Catholic views on celibacy and other issues.
TIA: In one of his recent books – The Oil Has Not Run Dry: The Story of My Theological Pathway, published in November 2016 – Baum came out of the closet disclosing that he has been a homosexual for more than 50 years. He also confessed that he did not reveal it before to not harm the progressivist influence he exercised. Homosexual Baum wrote : “I did not profess my own homosexuality in public because such an act of honesty would have reduced my influence as a critical theologian.” “I was eager to be heard as a theologian trusting in God as salvator mundi and committed to social justice, liberation theology, and global solidarity.”More
Offering to the deity Kohomba in the Vatican: Yesterday's celebration of the 60th anniversary of Nostra Aetate featured various rituals, performances and testimonies. The opening featured a Kandyan Dance, also known as the Uda Rata Natum. This ritual from Sri Lanka is dedicated to the pagan deity Kohomba, and is intended to invoke "protection" and "healing". According to legend, the ritual was introduced by pagan deities or celestial beings. The Vatican’s speaker announced: 'Its origins date back to Buddhist rituals, in which dance was offered as an act of devotion to bring blessings, harmony and peace.'
The Vatican hosted on October 28 an event to mark 60years of Vatican II's 'Nostra Aetate.' «Le origini [della Kandyan Dance] risalgono ai rituali legati al buddhismo, dove la danza veniva offerta come atto di devozione per portare benedizione, armonia e pace.» → “The origins [of the Kandyan Dance] go back to rituals tied to Buddhism, where the dance was offered as an act of devotion to bring blessing, harmony, and peace.”
APPEAL TO POPE LEO TO CORRECT THE 1949 LOHO MISTAKE AND DECLARE LG 14 AND 16 AS ONLY HYPOTHETICAL IN 2025 : 103 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (UPDATED) 30.10.2025 This is a sample petition to Pope Leo XIV which John Henry Westen and others could send to the pope. To: His Holiness Pope Leo XIV, Vatican City. Dear Holy Father, We the undersigned Catholics and non Catholics appeal to you to please announce that Lumen Gentium 14, being saved with the baptism of desire , and Lumen Gentium 16, being saved in invincible ignorance, refer to hypothetical cases. They refer to invisible people in 1965-2025. We will not be able to see or meet someone saved with the baptism of desire or in invincible ignorance, and with a good conscience, outside the Church, in 2025-2026. If anyone is saved as such it would only be known to God. So kindly clarify the obvious, what is common knowledge, - that LG 14 and LG 16 refer to theoretical cases and not objectively known people in our human reality in the present times. …More
