Agreed! Democrats ARE brainwashed... Any Catholic voting democrat at any moment in their lives, needs to repent of all the babies murdered by the abortion democrat machine they voted for. Anyone who is for abortion is an enemy of God.

Your Habits Reveal Your True God
True revelation of God comes to those who love Him and keep His commandments, not just through lip service but by living according to His teachings. False gods, like social media, can distract us from God and lead to anxiety and depression. We must examine our lives and prioritize God above all else, removing anything that hinders our relationship with Him.

Revealed Letter: Tucho Rebuked Germany - but Let the Process Continue

A newly emerged letter from pro-homosexual Cardinal Tucho Fernández, soft-porn author and Prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, has revealed that he warned the German bishops in 2024 against proceeding with their proposed homosexual blessings.
Dated 18 November 2024, the letter was addressed to Bishop Stephan Ackermann of Trier, who is responsible for liturgy. It was published today on X.com by Mexican priest Jorge Enrique Mújica, head of Zenit.org.
In the letter, Tucho states that the German bishops’ proposed guidelines for blessings “effectively legitimise the status of such couples” and therefore contradict his homosexual pamphlet Fiducia Supplicans.
He also criticises the German text for creating what amounts to “a kind of liturgy or para-liturgy” for homosexual blessings.
Specifically, Tucho rejected:
• the treatment of homosexual unions as a status to be publicly recognised,
• the inclusion of ritual elements resembling marriage ceremonies,
• prescribed …More

To date, every attempt to find discontinuity between Francis and Leo on these issues is an exercise in imagination.

Polish Nuncio Conferred Confirmation in the Roman Rite

On 2 May, the Apostolic Nuncio to Poland, Antonio Filipazzi, conferred the Sacrament of Confirmation in the Roman rite on 50 young people close to the Institute of the Good Shepherd in Poland.
The ceremony took place at the former Camaldolese church in Bielany, Warsaw.
Afterwards, a Mass was celebrated, with the nuncio assisting from the throne.
The Institute of the Good Shepherd has been working in the Archdiocese of Warsaw for 10 years.
Archbishop Filipazzi is a papal loyalist. He praised Pope Francis in 2025 as an "untiring shepherd of the universal Church" who devoted "all his energy to the Church and to all humanity".

Archdiocese of New York Agrees To Pay $800,000,000 in Sex Abuse Settlement - Protestia

News
Two years after the Archdiocese of Los Angeles reached an $880 million settlement with men and women who survived childhood sexual abuse at the hands of Roman Catholic priests and clergy in their diocese, the Catholic Archdiocese of New York is following suit, agreeing to pay more than $800 million to its own sexual abuse survivors.
So far, the Catholic Church has paid out more than $5 billion in settlements, which has bankrupted at least 19 dioceses.
The archdiocese has been planning this for a while. Along with selling off buildings and laying off staff, including the sale of their New York headquarters for $100 million, the Archdiocese is suing its insurance company, Chubb.
The archdiocese claims that “even though we have paid them over $2 billion in premiums by today’s standards, [Chubb] is now attempting to evade their legal and moral contractual obligation to settle covered claims which would bring peace and healing to victim-survivors.”

This is one of the unknown miracles of the Tilma of Guadalupe: The stars on her mantle aren't decoration, they are a music. The stars on the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe perfectly align with the constellations over Mexico on December 12, 1531. The stars are arranged in emmission (as if viewed from outside the solar system, looking toward Earth) rather than reflection (as seen from Earth's surface looking up). But there is a hidden code. If you take the position of the stars and the flowers on her dress and place them on a musical staff, they create a perfect, harmonious melody. It is literally a song from Heaven. Listen:

National March for Life 2026 and Catholic Education Week: another missed opportunity

The National March for Life 2026 and Catholic Education is another missed opportunity to witness to Canadians that Catholics stand for life. We could publicly show others that our parishes, schools and Catholic hospitals defend and promote a culture of life.
This year's theme for the
National March for Life is “Follow Me.” The message comes from, Matthew 4: 19-20, "Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.’ Immediately they left their nets and followed."
Toronto’s Cardinal Frank Leo this week issued a message for Catholic Education Week, May 3-8. He writes:
My hope is that everyone who comes into contact with our schools is lifted up and inspired by our witness in such a way that our schools become aspirational places for those who seek to know and live the truth and love of God. We must also remain attentive to the ideas and influences around us — especially those that can misrepresent our Catholic faith and the teachings of the Church.
Yes, we must be people who witness and …

Cdl. Marx's same-sex 'blessing' guide made 'in consultation with Rome,' heterodox theologian claims - LifeSite

Tue Apr 28, 2026 - 9:46 am EDTWed Apr 29, 2026 - 5:53 am EDT
(
LifeSiteNews) — A German theologian and vice president of a Catholic lay organization claimed that Cardinal Reinhard Marx implementing same-sex “blessings” in Germany was done “in consultation with Rome.”
Thomas Söding, the vice president of the heterodox Central Committee of German Catholics (ZdK), was asked about Pope Leo XIV’s response to Marx implementing “blessings” for “couples of all gender identities” in an interview with Deutschlandfunk.
Söding stated that what the Pope said “about blessing ceremonies is, as I see it, a kind of peace offering to the universal Catholic Church, which is, after all, torn in two on this issue.”
“In Germany, what should and can happen with same-sex couples has been discussed with Rome, and that is not going to change,” he asserted.
He said that the heterodox “blessing” guidelines came out of the German Synodal Way, which “is a response to an unresolved issue.”
“At present, the …
