‘On Cleaving to God’ ~ Attributed to Saint Albert the Great (St. Albertus Magnus); ‘How one should resist temptations and bear trials…’; Chapter 11; pages 13-14 [Saint Albert the Great – Albertus Magnus – XIII Century AD; born: Duchy of Bavaria/died: Cologne, Holy Roman Empire; (Aged ca 80); German Dominican friar, philosopher, scientist, and bishop; one of the greatest medieval philosophers and thinkers; Doctor of the Church] Chapter 11 ~ How one should resist temptations and bear trials Now there is no one who approaches God with a true and upright heart who is not tested by hardships and temptations. So in all these temptations see to it that even if you feel them, you do not consent to them, but bear them patiently and calmly with humility and long suffering. Even if they are blasphemies and sordid, hold firmly on to this fact in everything, that you can do nothing better or more effective against them than to consider all this sort of fantasy as a nothing. Even if they are the most …More
Lilith's Cave - Jewish Tales of the Supernatural | Selected and Retold by Howard Schwartz "If you want to discover demons, take sifted ashes and sprinkle them around your bed, and in the morning you will see something like the footprints of a cock. If you want to see them, take the after-birth of a black she-cat, the firstborn of a firstborn, roast it in fire and grind it to powder, and then put some in your eye and you will see them." —The Talmud Berachot 6a
Vatican Media Prefect "Montse" admits herself: "I'm annulled in the church too, so that's also bizarre. And I think more people have spoken to me about that than anything else, their desire to pursue an annulment, to consider that reunification with the church after divorce, not that you need it if you don't want to marry again, but if you do. There's a lot of confusion around that, and I think that's, for whatever reason, I don't think that's why I was chosen, but there's providence in everything, right? All of our mistakes and all of our flaws, our Lord uses everything for good."
Vatican: A Seat of Honour for Charles III, Excommunication for the Father of an Abused Child One year ago today, on 23 October 2025, King Charles III of the United Kingdom, Supreme Governor of the Church of England, received the honorary title of Royal Confrater at the Basilica of Saint Paul Outside the Walls, with the approval of Pope Leo XIV. A distinguished seat had been reserved for him, adorned with his coat of arms and the words of Christ: Ut unum sint — “That they may all be one.” The Holy See presented the appointment as a sign of fraternity between Catholics and Anglicans. Paradoxically, just one year later, Rome has upheld the excommunication of Scott Peyton, a permanent deacon of the Diocese of Lafayette, Louisiana. His canonical offence was joining an Anglican congregation after the Catholic priest Michael Guidry sexually abused his son Oliver. The juxtaposition is difficult to reconcile. While an Anglican monarch is welcomed as a brother in a papal basilica, a father …More

Israeli War Minister Israel Katz has announced that more than 2,000 Palestinians forced out of their homes in a neighborhood of Hebron will not be allowed to return until what he called the full destruction of “Hamas infrastructure” across the city, in what Israel’s Channel 14 describes as the “Jenin model” applied to Hebron. The order comes as Israeli forces carry out a large-scale invasion of the city as collective punishment, one that, according to the latest Israeli reports, has not found any weapons.

"Suarez, on the other hand, does not seem to admit that purgatory betters the soul in any other sense than enabling it to discharge the debt of punishment due to sin..."
‘APPENDICES…’ ~ ‘Treatise on Purgatory’ by Saint Catherine of Genoa; 1915; pp. 56-57; part II [Saint Catherine of Genoa ~ XV-XVI Century; born: Genoa, Republic of Genoa/ died: Genoa, Republic of Genoa; (aged 62-63); Mystic; Spiritual Writer] Appendix B THERE is a difference of opinion among theologians as to the nature of that purification which the souls undergo in purgatory. From what are they purified ? from the guilt of sin, or simply from imperfections? If from imperfections, in what sense do they become perfect? In that they are intrinsically improved ; or is it merely that they have bettered their condition before God? Suarez, on the other hand, does not seem to admit that purgatory betters the soul in any other sense than enabling it to discharge the debt of punishment due to sin (Suarez, Disp. xi., sec. iv. a 2, 10). All the guilt of sin, he says) is remitted at the first moment of the soul's separation from the body in primo instanti separationis animce a corpore "by a single …More

He's right here ~ Archbp. Marcel Lefebvre ~ For it is a masterstroke of Satan to get Catholics to disobey the whole Tradition in the name of obedience.
The Pope of Applause. Today, Leo XIV received a seemingly endless ovation from charismatic Catholics of the Jesus Youth movement, founded in Kerala, southern India, in the 1970s. They shouted “Woo!” and “Woo-hoo!” He responded with a broad smile (wait the whole minute for it). Such applause is routine for Leo XIV. He allows himself to be applauded, cheered and acclaimed every day, sometimes several times a day. One wonders how any ordinary man can endure such constant immersion in adulation.
