(LifeSiteNews) — The Presentation is one of the minor solemnities of Our Lady, and was inscribed at a comparatively late date on the sacred cycle; it seems to court the homage of our silent contemplation. The world, unknown to itself, is ruled by the secret prayers of the just; and the queen of saints, in her hidden mysteries, wrought far more powerfully than the so-called great men, whose noisy achievements fill the annals of the human race. The East had been celebrating for seven centuries at least (Pitra, Analecta sacra Spicilegio Solesmensi parata i, 275) the Menæa, ad. diem hanc.) when in 1372 Gregory XI permitted it to be kept for the first time (Le Blant, No. 542 “Inscriptions chrétiennes de la Gaule”) by the Roman court at Avignon. Mary in return broke the chains of captivity that had bound the papacy for 70 years; and soon the successor of St. Peter returned to Rome. The feast of the Visitation, as we saw on July 2 In 1373, following the example of the sovereign pontiff, …
In March 2024, the retired Archbishop Telesphore Mpundu, 78, of Lusaka, Zambia, ordained the US priest Anthony Ward in the Roman rite as a bishop. Archbishop Mpundu was ordained in the Novus Ordo, a priest in 1972 and a bishop in 1987. He served multiple terms as president of the Zambia Bishops' Conference. In 2018, he requested early retirement at the age of only 70. No reason was given. Ward was once once a member of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X and ordained by Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre. However, he left soon afterwards. In 1977, he founded an independent group in Colorado called the Servants of the Holy Family. In 2013, the Diocese of Colorado Springs declared the group “not in good standing with the diocesan or universal Catholic Church”. On 16 November 2025, Ward announced after Mass that he and Archbishop Mpundu had both been notified by Tucho Fernández - author of soft pornography and Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith - of an excommunication …More
Excommunication latae sententiae is automatic, or "by the fact itself," excommunication in the Catholic Church that takes effect immediately upon the commission of a specific offense. It is different from ferendae sententiae excommunication, which must be formally declared by an ecclesiastical authority. Examples of acts that incur latae sententiae excommunication include apostasy, heresy, schism, desecrating the Eucharist, or a priest violating the seal of confession.
Don Maurizio Gronchi, a consultant to the Vatican Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, told AciPrensa.com on 18 November that the drafting of Tucho’s recent document Mater Populi Fidelis against the title Co-Redemptrix had a striking feature. Don Gronchi co-presented the document alongside Tucho and is an enemy of the title. The Dicastery's work has historically been 'collegial'. For each topic studied, the Dicastery draws on the input of internal consultants, external experts and other sources. However, in the case of this document on Marian titles, "no collaborating Mariologists could be found", according to Don Gronchi. He pointed out that neither the faculty of the Marianum nor the Pontifical International Marian Academy participated in the presentation of the document. In his opinion, this can be interpreted as a “silence” that “can be understood as dissent”. Picture: Infovaticana, #newsEjbrmvmlnm
On 19 November, Pope Leo XIV received the Jewish Democratic Governor of Illinois, J. B. Pritzker, in an audience. Afterwards, Pritzker wrote on X.com that he was honoured to meet "this son of Illinois", adding: "Pope Leo XIV’s message of hope, compassion, unity and peace resonates with Illinoisans of all faiths and traditions." Pritzker is a pro-abortion politician. He signed the Reproductive Health Act into law in 2019, thereby repealing older restrictions and affirming the "fundamental right to make autonomous decisions about one's own reproductive health". In October 2023, he launched a national effort through his own non-profit organisation to support "abortion rights" outside Illinois. Furthermore, Pritzker has long advocated for homosexual privileges. In June 2025, he posted on X.com: "I’ve been marching for LGBTQ+ rights since Pride was considered a protest. And I’ll continue to march..." #newsZenzekzwpl
"What's crazy to me is that there are Muslims immigrating and 'seeking asylum' in our country when there are 56 other Muslim countries out there that they could easily go to and not have to change a damn thing." "They are choosing to come to the West that is founded on Christian values." "Also what is weird is that most of them coming here are not women and children, but males who are of military age, and shouting death to America in Dearborn Michigan." It has always been and will always be about conquering the West. WAKE UP!
Dr. Peter McCullough highlights twelve studies showing that completely unvaccinated children consistently experience better health outcomes than their vaccinated peers. He explains that vaccines administered individually—especially after age four—are far safer than the early-life “battery” recommended during critical neurodevelopment. Citing new JAMA data showing that 60% of parents now refuse the full CDC schedule, McCullough says families are recognizing the connection between clustered shots and developmental regression.
Well People used to take small sips of poison to acclimate the body in the event of an enemy attach via poisoning. The body can tool up to deal with toxins so long as it’s not overwhelmed.
Good. There is also no historical precedent for inducing minor disease to prevent major disease which is how vaccines are supposed to work. It is an aberration of the medical concept of healing. There is also a theological backing for this. As one would never recommend a little sin to prevent grave sin. Rather purity (or immunity, extending the analogy) protects against sin (disease).
The war could have been avoided but for the demon-possessed Putin attacking a sovereign nation and personally overseeing the murder of about a million people who are just defending their homeland.
Leo XIV Legalises Sister Raffaella Petrini: Pope Leo XIV has issued a new Motu Proprio revising the norms for the Pontifical Commission of the Vatican City State, the body that exercises the Vatican’s legislative authority. He notes that the Governorate increasingly requires collaborative governance as its administrative complexity grows. The Motu Proprio replaces Article 8 §1 of the 2023 Fundamental Law, establishing that the Pontifical Commission - its president included - will now consist of cardinals and other members appointed directly by the Pope for five-year terms. The change takes effect immediately. This legal adjustment formally allows Sister Raffaella Petrini FSE to serve as president of the Governorate in full harmony with current Vatican law.
Jim Ferguson @JimFergusonUK MUSK EXPOSES THE SOROS HACK Elon Musk just broke down how George Soros turned philanthropy into one of the most powerful profit-and-control rackets in modern history. On The Joe Rogan Experience, Musk explained: “Soros is like a system hacker — a genius at arbitrage. He figured out how to take a $10 million ‘donation’ and turn it into a billion-dollar NGO.” Here’s how the scheme works : 1) Seed money: Soros sets up a “non-profit” with a small initial investment. 2) Lobbying: That NGO then pressures politicians to send it massive government grants. 3) Payback loop: Taxpayers end up funding their own destruction — money flows from the public treasury into Soros-aligned organizations pushing his ideology. 4) Perpetual motion: The NGO gets locked in for annual funding, hidden under “humanitarian” or “democracy” budgets. Musk called it exactly what it is — “a graft machine.” Think about it: The Institute for Peace that fuels wars. The Open Society that …More
On 19 November, Hong Kong Cardinal Joseph Zen, 93, wrote on his blog, OldYosef.HkCatholic.com, about the history and dangers of the Synod. He recalls that Francis "regrettably" restructured this institution of bishops to include lay members. Thus, it became a hybrid "consultative assembly of the baptised", convened under the name of Synod. However, Cardinal Zen is more concerned that the central leaders of the Synod clearly sought to advance significant reforms to Church doctrine and discipline. He accuses the synod leaders of wasting meeting time with childish "conversations in the Spirit", and of avoiding formal discussion as much as possible. Meanwhile, a large group of facilitators, experts, secretaries and undersecretaries controlled the assembly. Regarding the final document, Cardinal Zen notes that Francis endorsed it as his "papal teaching". Francis urged everyone to read, understand and implement it 'on a trial basis', with the outcomes of the entire experiment to be reviewed …More
In his comments today, 11/21/25, at the 2025 National Catholic Youth Conference in the USA, Leo just invited the young people to let their voices be heard in shaping the church of tomorrow - everyone needs to be included in these "conversations of the spirit" - mentioned by Cardinal Zen. Also, in the final synod document for 2024, all the baptized, i.e., Protestants of any and all stripes, are now included in the term, "people of God," which means Protestant heresies are now included in the "sensus fidei." In these "conversations of the spirit," everyone is welcome - everyone is an "oracle of truth" - it's modernism and gnosticism on steroids - it's not the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church will remain and be protected by Our Lord until His return - however, it will be found "underground" - back to the catacombs, in small remnant communities. This is now underway ----
Illusions from Cardinal Zen: “Francis committed many dangerous errors, leaving behind chaos & division. Now, the greatest hope lies in Leo XIV succeeding in uniting the Church on the basis of truth & dedicating himself to evangelization. We must offer our prayers & sacrifices.”
