During Pope Leo XIV’s visit to Piazza di Spagna on December 8, a minor incident occurred as the papal motorcade was departing. Two animal-rights activists attempted to display a sign calling for an end to animal fighting. Police intervened immediately and stopped the women before they could unfurl the banner. The popemobile briefly slowed, then continued its route without further issues.
Mentre Papa Leone XIV lasciava piazza di Spagna, la polizia italiana ha immediatamente fermato il tentativo di alcune attiviste di Peta (People for the Ethical treatment of animals) che si erano avvicinate alle transenne per alzare degli striscioni in modo da renderli visibili al Pontefice. La Papamobile si è fermata per qualche momento mentre gli uomini della polizia italiana procedevano ad abbassare gli striscioni. Dopo poco la Papamobile con a bordo il Pontefice ha ripreso la marcia verso il Traforo.
Swiss Auxiliary Bishop Marian Eleganti has criticised the Vatican study commission that has examined the impossibility of a female diaconate. In a post on his personal blog on 8 December, he argued that it was difficult to understand why the commission was unable to reach a definitive conclusion. According to Eleganti, "it is all too obvious that, despite the historical evidence, the goal is to keep the pot simmering — to keep the question open." He notes that church feminists already wear "fantasy stoles". He recalls that previous study commissions have repeatedly re-examined the historical record, only to arrive at the same results that have been known for decades. "Is it tragedy or comedy?" he asks. The bishop adds that the ancient deaconesses "were different from the deacons of their time and were shaped by cultural circumstances". Contradicting Sister Linda Pocher, who is presented publicly as a papal advisor, Eleganti insists that the Church's rejection of a sacramental female …More
Christ said that your yes must mean yes, and your no must mean no. Since V2 we hear doublespeak from the hierarchy. It is mamby pambyand all it does is confuse everyone. From this, sins can be committed because everything is fluid.
Archbishop Georg Gänswein, now Nuncio to Lithuania, told K-Tv.org that he has never understood why Pope Francis issued Traditionis custodes. The worldwide survey of bishops indicated that Summorum Pontificum had brought “liturgical peace.” Why Francis nonetheless imposed new restrictions “remains a mystery,” he said, adding that Francis’s accompanying letter offered no clear explanation. Monsignor Gänswein also mentioned that the Archbishop of Vilnius told him there are “no difficulties at all” with Roman-rite Catholics in Lithuania. The group is small but includes many young people and families, and “the bishops have no problem with this cooperation or with this different liturgical form; they approve and are satisfied with it.” Furthermore, Monsignor Gänswein recalled Benedict XVI’s insistence that the Roman rite was never abolished: “It cannot be legitimate and precious one day and no longer so the next.” Benedict wanted that those who had lost their “spiritual and liturgical …More

In a 23-page response, the International Marian Association Theological Commission (IMA) highlights what it sees as significant errors and omissions in Cardinal Tucho Fernández’s doctrinal note Mater Populi Fidelis. Key phrases: - If the title Co-redemptrix is always inappropriate or inopportune to use, then the popes, saints and mystics who approved or used the title were acting in an inappropriate and imprudent manner. - Members of the IMA Theological Commission who have taught Mariology for decades certainly do not find the title Co-redemptrix ‘unhelpful’. - While it is appropriate that Mater Populi Fidelis acknowledges papal uses of the title Co-redemptrix, it is unfortunate that these papal uses are not given greater respect or presence in the actual text. - It is unusual that a doctrinal note of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith would quote at length a secular interview by a cardinal prefect, and at the same time, not include over ten papal usages of the same title. …More
"This severity of Divine Justice in regard to the most fervent souls is explained by the infinite Sanctity of God, who discovers stains in that which appears to us most pure."
Chapter XVI Pains of Purgatory — St. Antoninus and the Religious — Father Rossignoli on a Quarter of an Hour in Purgatory— Brother Angelicus. That which shows still more the rigour of Purgatory is that the shortest period of time there appears to be of very long duration. Every one knows that days of enjoyment pass quickly and appear short, whilst the time passed in suffering we find very long. Oh, how slowly pass the hours of the night for the poor sick, who spend them in sleeplessness and pain. We may say that the more intense the pain the longer appears the shortest duration of time. This rule furnishes us with a new means of estimating the sufferings of Purgatory. We find in the Annals of the Friar Minors, under the year 1285, a fact which is also related by St. Antoninus in his Summa.1 A religious man, suffering for a long time from a painful malady, allowed himself to be overcome by discouragement, and entreated God to permit him to die, that he might be released from his pains …More
ALMIGHTY GOD Who sent the Angel Gabriel to relay GOD'S intended message to reveal to Mary and to ALL His children with these uncorrupt words of Holy Scripture are which reveal everything in TRUTH about Mary. 28 And the Angel being come in, said to her: Hail, full of grace, . . . Gospel of Saint Luke 1:28 [uncorrupt Douay Rheims BIBLE] This is the verse from the CORRUPTED bible, which was used in the presidential message- "Holy Scripture, the Angel Gabriel greeted her in the village of Nazareth with news of a miracle: “Hail, favored one" . The dimunition and reduction of the truth that MARY is / was/ and always will remain FULL OF GRACE is blatantly obvious, but only if one has eyes to see and ears to hear.
Voice of "The Baroness" “A priest is a lover of God, a priest is a lover of men, a priest is a holy man because he walks before the face of the All-Holy. A priest understands all things, a priest forgives all things, a priest encompasses all things. The heart of a priest is pierced, like Christ’s, with the lance of love. The heart of a priest is open, like Christ’s, for the whole world to walk through. The heart of a priest is a vessel of compassion, the heart of a priest is a chalice of love, the heart of a priest is a trysting place of human and divine love. A priest is a man whose goal is to be another Christ; a priest is a man who lives to serve. A priest is a man who has crucified himself so that he too may be lifted up and draw all things to Christ. A priest is a man in love with God. A priest is a gift of God to man and of man to God. A priest is a symbol of the Word made flesh, a priest is the naked sword of God’s justice, a priest is the hand of God’s mercy, a priest is the …More
So, now these woke terrible policies and laws make us pay for telling the truth. Legislated lies essentially govern us. If we don't capitulate, and it's mostly Christians, we must pay fines, be arrested and even go to jail.
Robert Prevost has "de facto" nullified the requirement for salvation that all human beings receive the sacrament of Baptism and believe in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
This evening, Pope Leo XIV participated in a niche interreligious gathering organised by the Sant’Egido Community at the Colosseum. At the beginning, Andrea Riccardi emphasised that “the Spirit of Assisi still blows”. Representatives of various religions were present, including Christian sects, as well as representatives of Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism and other faiths. Together, they lit small candles. Leo XIV held a speech praising the false religions and spiritualties. His key points were: - We have prayed for peace according to our diverse religious traditions. - This is our witness: offering the immense treasures of ancient spiritualities to contemporary humanity. - On 27 October 1986, Saint John Paul IIinvited religious leaders from around the world to Assisi to pray for peace. This historic event marked a turning point in interfaith relations. - We embrace the challenge of Assisi and the awareness of our shared task and responsibility for peace. - For the Catholic Church …More
This is pagan. If all religions are fine, why be a Catholic? Christ commanded His apostles to go preach, convert and baptize all nations. V2 has demanded that we stop.

The affair erupted this past weekend in November in Avrechy, in the Oise region. The village priest decided to cancel the nativity scene, the festivities, and especially the Christmas Mass, stating that he wanted to prevent a religious celebration from becoming the subject of a purely political battle between two candidates in the municipal elections. Le Parisien specifies that the long-time organizer of the parish festivities is now the main opponent of the incumbent mayor and that both are engaged in a particularly tense local campaign. To distance himself from this confrontation, the priest has chosen to cancel all Christmas-related events.
