There is plenty of evidence to show that Bishops and Cardinals who attended Vatican Council II were concerned from the start about its timing, its content and the serious omissions found in its documents. The Council Fathers on Vatican II

Public support for Monsignor Marco Agostini, the former Master of Papal Ceremonies, has emerged in Italy. He was dismissed after an audio recording was circulated in which he was allegedly heard using offensive language about members of the Roman Curia. While a microphone was unintentionally left on ahead of a Christmas greeting, he reportedly said that they are all "assholes" and "faggots". On 4 January, VeronaNews.net reported that Vito Comencini, a member of the Italian Chamber of Deputies, had issued a public letter expressing solidarity with the prelate. Comencini considers the dismissal 'unjust and foolish', adding that it represents a 'worrying sign of persecution'. Neither the audio nor the dismissal has been accompanied by an official explanation from Vatican authorities. The Italian politician is aware that Monsignor Agostini had been 'targeted for some time' and claims that the alleged interception merely served as justification for his removal. Comencini also links the case …More

After examining the Marian feasts celebrated throughout the world on a given day, Fr. Nate offers a brief reflection to help make our love for Our Lady concrete in daily living.

missing teeth after taking birth control shot Thousands of women are now suing pharmaceutical giant Pfizer over claims its popular birth control injection left them with 'life-changing' brain tumors. Lawyers told the Daily Mail exclusively that Pfizer will have to stand trial on December 7, 2026, as more than 2,100 women across the US claim in publicly filed lawsuits that they were not warned that the birth control shot Depo-Provera had been linked to debilitating and potentially incurable, benign brain tumors. Taken by 2million women every year, Depo-Provera is a decades-old contraceptive method that is injected into the arm or buttocks once every three months, delivering the synthetic hormone progestin to prevent pregnancy. Recent studies done in the past two years, however, have found that the shot comes with than a 500 percent increased risk of developing brain tumors long after users stop taking the medication. Last month, Pfizer added a warning label to Depo-Provera about the …
Leftist women get, if possible, crazier, and I love Naomi Wolf’s theory about why: This one-time Democrat has delivered one of the most scathing indictments I’ve ever seen of the entire leftist cultural infrastructure.

Australian Cardinal George Pell holds a copy of his book, "Prison Journal," during an interview with Catholic News Service at his residence in Rome Dec. 18, 2020. (CNS photo/Robert Duncan) Editor’s note:You can read Part 1 of this column here. In 2014, the newly elected Pope Francis decided to improve the state of the Vatican’s finances. He appointed the Australian cardinal George Pell (1941-2023) to be the first prefect of his new Secretariat for the Economy. Pell was seen as the sort of no-nonsense, thorough, and intelligent cardinal who could corral other cardinals into cleaning up their mess. Pell ordered audits, established policy guidelines, and began to investigate the financial affairs of different Vatican offices. One would think that simply trying to introduce transparency into the Vatican finances would be non-controversial. One would be wrong. Just as Pell began to uncover problems, a series of child sexual abuse charges from Australia were leveled at Pell in 2017. While …

Blessed William Carter Jan. 11 breski1 on Jan 11, 2010 Born in London, William Carter entered the printing business at an early age. For many years he served as apprentice to well-known Catholic printers, one of whom served a prison sentence for persisting in the Catholic faith. William himself served time in prison following his arrest for "printing lewd [i.e., Catholic] pamphlets" as well as possessing books upholding Catholicism. But even more, he offended public officials by publishing works that aimed to keep Catholics firm in their faith. Officials who searched his house found various vestments and suspect books, and even managed to extract information from William's distraught wife. Over the next 18 months William remained in prison, suffering torture and learning of his wife's death. He was eventually charged with printing and publishing the Treatise of Schisme, which allegedly incited violence by Catholics and which was said to have been written by a traitor and addressed to …More
Pope Leo XIV named Monsignor Sithembele Anton Sipuka, 65, as Archbishop of Cape Town on January 9. He succeeds Cardinal Stephen Brislin, who was transferred to Johannesburg in October 2024. Early Life and Formation Sithembele Anton Sipuka was born on April 27, 1960, in Idutywa (Dutywa) in the Eastern Cape. Before entering seminary, he worked for two years as a post office clerk. He was ordained a priest in 1988 for the Diocese of Queenstown, six years before the end of apartheid. In 1992, he was sent to Rome to study at the Pontifical Urban University. Rising Star in the Church In 2008, Pope Benedict XVI appointed Sipuka as Bishop of Mthatha. The diocese is rural, located in South Africa’s Eastern Cape province, and has fewer than 40,000 Catholics. Cape Town, by contrast, is one of South Africa’s most prominent sees, with approximately 280,000 Catholics. From 2019 to 2023, Bishop Sipuka served as President of the Southern African Catholic Bishops’ Conference. In July 2025, Pope Leo …More
