Explanation. Ephesians 6:12 (Spiritual Warfare) "For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood; but against principalities and powers, against the rulers of the world of this darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high places." And Romans 8:38–39 (Inseparability from God's Love) "For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor might, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord." The real reason behind what is going on – this attack on me and all those false accusations is my scientific work. I am being under attack from other angles as well, also without a reason, even by random people. In the next 1-2 weeks I will publish (probably not here but on my website) a first part of the two-three-part series about the built and structure of the Universe and more later on. This work ‘mathematically and otherwise …More
Milan Archbishop Mario Delpini has issued new funeral guidelines. He reaffimed that funerals must be free, with only voluntary donations permitted. Funeral agencies cannot include Church fees in their price lists or dictate religious arrangements. Delpini also calls for limiting lengthy farewell speeches, preferably holding them after the liturgy. Catholic funerals cannot take place in private farewell rooms. While cremation is permitted, Delpini reiterates the Church’s prohibition on keeping ashes at home and proposes designated spaces for urns inside churches.
A historic verdict in Poland. For the first time, a Catholic bishop has been convicted for failing to report clerical homosexual abuse. Bishop Andrzej Jeż has announced that he will appeal the verdict. Today, October 29, a court in Tarnów convicted Bishop Jeż, 63, of failing to promptly report allegations of child homosexual abuse involving two priests in his diocese. It is the first conviction of a serving Catholic bishop in Poland for such an offense. The court sentenced Bishop Jeż to two years of restricted liberty, requiring him to surrender 25% of his monthly salary to a foundation supporting abused children. He must also pay 20,000 złoty into a victims' assistance fund. The case concerns allegations against two priests, Stanisław P. and Tomasz K. One priest was implicated in the abuse of at least 95 boys between 1987 and 2008. Church authorities had investigated allegations against Stanisław P. in the 2000s and dismissed him from the clergy in 2013. In July 2017, Poland introduced …More

The Summorum Pontificum pilgrimage has been banned from the Rome venue, the Augustinianum, for future events.
Luigi Casalini di Messa in Latino: "Non voglio credere, non voglio credere alle notizie che la Questura ha ricevuto una telefonata vaticana che ha chiesto se avevamo tutti i bolli e controbolli per la processione in territorio italiano. Non voglio crederlo, eh, come invece mi è stato detto. Non voglio credere, perché non c'è bisogno di credere a una cosa che ormai è... Come non voglio credere che è stato detto... Noi il convegno lo facciamo all'Augustinianum, che è un centro congressi prestigioso di fianco al Vaticano, di proprietà degli Agostiniani, che hanno la fortuna anche di avere il Papa oggi. E non voglio credere che ci è stato comunicato il venerdì pomeriggio che dal prossimo anno l'Augustinianum non ce lo danno più. Ma non voglio crederlo, non voglio, anche se me l'ha detto l'organizzatore primo, ma comunque non voglio crederlo."

Cardinal Burke denies the pre-conclave dinners. Cardinal Raymond Burke had denied hosting the dinners at his Roman apartment that allegedly helped secure Leo XIV’s election, writes Phil Lawler on CatholicCulture.org on October 29. The sensational story of the dinner parties at Cardinal Burke’s Rome apartment was published by the homosexual journalist Francesco Capozza on IlTempo.it in August. It is circulating again because RorateCaeli.blogspot.com translated the article on October 25. Capozza does not identify a single source, relying instead on anonymous accounts attributed to participants and an unnamed cardinal. The article suggests that two dinners at Cardinal Burke’s apartment helped secure 20–25 votes for Cardinal Prevost. Lawler does not cite a source for the denial either. Multiple sources had said that Cardinal Raymond Burke denied hosting the meetings, “Cardinal Burke says that no such parties took place - at least not to his knowledge, and certainly not in his apartment.” …More
Bishop Barron Hits Cardinal: “Church Exists to Convert”
Bishop Barron rebukes Cardinal Vesco. In an October 28 post on X.com, Bishop Robert Barron of Winona-Rochester, Minnesota, attacked the Archbishop Jean-Paul Vesco of Algiers. He had claimed that “the Church is not there to convert” and that Christians should approach other religions “through fraternity rather than seeking conversions.” “Excuse me, but…what?” Barron responded. Citing Christ’s command to “make disciples of all nations,” the American bishop added: “Sure sounds like conversion to me.” Bishop Barron then invoked St. Paul, who preached in Corinth, Athens and Thessalonica. His purpose, Barron argued, “was not to listen or to form a discussion group but rather to declare an unnerving message”: that Jesus Christ is risen from the dead. He also criticized what he sees as a wider problem within the Church hierarchy, opening his post with the remark: “Well, another Cardinal has come out with a, shall we say, puzzling take on evangelization.” Monsignor Barron stressed that abandoning …More
Bishop Marian Eleganti: “The Vatican Cuts a Poor Figure”. Retired Swiss Bishop Marian Eleganti condemns the exclusion of Catholics from St. Peter’s Basilica on October 24: “This year’s ban on access to St. Peter’s Basilica for the tradition-minded pilgrims of ‘Ad Petri Sedem’ borders on hostility toward Catholics who are loyal to the Pope and orthodox in their faith. It has nothing to do with concern for unity in the Church or with operational difficulties in organizing liturgical celebrations in St. Peter’s Basilica.” “Synodal hypocrisy (inclusivity) has thereby revealed itself for what it is.” Bishop Eleganti notes that the “Ad Petri Sedem” pilgrims are not the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX): “We have known it for a long time: Certain people are inclusive only as long as it serves their own goals. They ruthlessly and cold-bloodedly exclude different ways of thinking and different approaches to pastoral care and spirituality. This has been my consistent experience.” “So-…More
