"With wisdom comes the ability to see the Truth” Wednesday, January 21st, 2015 @ 20:24 With wisdom comes the ability to see the Truth” Wednesday, January 21st, 2015 @ 20:24 My dearly beloved daughter, wisdom is a Gift given to man by the power of the Holy Spirit. For all the riches, powers and precious stones gleaned on earth, which man may gain, he has nothing if he does not possess the Gift of wisdom. With wisdom comes the ability to see the Truth, which was given by God to the human race through the prophets. Wisdom, unfortunately, is a rare thing in the world today. By succumbing to all things created by man for man, you will fail to see all that is hidden beneath the layers of seductive soothing vapours that cover the world because of man’s pursuit of every pleasure, every act, every word and spiritual stimulation which does not come from God. Man is born into the world naked, vulnerable and reliant on others to feed and clothe him. He is born with a body and soul and he will leave …More

Why Tech Oligarchs Are Willing to Risk Apocalypse nytimes.com/…/12/opinion/ai-tech-apocalypse-silic… Sept. 12, 2026 By Michelle Goldberg Opinion Columnist In a series of private speeches last year, Peter Thiel, the billionaire tech investor and Silicon Valley thought leader, said that the young activist Greta Thunberg represented the spirit of the Antichrist. It was more than just a hyperbolic slur. Thiel was expressing a Promethean theology, one that sanctifies technology and expansion. In Thiel’s worldview, the forces of dynamism must struggle against the evils of stagnation, represented by Thunberg’s leftist environmentalism. “In the 21st century, the Antichrist is a Luddite who wants to stop all science,” said Thiel. Thiel’s philosophical assumptions might sound bizarre to outsiders, but they appear to be widely shared among the tech elite. “A.I. and its capabilities represent something analogous to the Second Coming,” Jeremy Nixon, a founder of an A.I. hub called A.G.I. House, …More

Italian priest Don Leonardo Pompei was declared excommunicated for schism on September 11 by the Diocese of Latina. The decision follows a penal process conducted under a mandate from the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith. The key issue is reflected in Pompei’s own words. In a public broadcast on September 5, 2025, he summarized what he had told his bishop: “I have come to the decision not to continue exercising my ministry within the hierarchical communion of the Catholic Church.”
Yes and no, Father. In fact, I love very much "ordinary" Novus Ordo Masses, when celebrated by sincere Priests (often with very good homilies). BUT there are some things - often imposed by Bishops as a practical test -that are insurmountable. "If a layman comes to you saying that he is adverse to the arrival and the Naturalization as citizens of Muslim people, it's your duty to tell him: "You're wrong: Catholic Doctrine says the opposite" ". Impossible to say OK
"Clear abuse of office" - Cardinal Müller criticises German bishops for their anti-AfD stance. After the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party won 44% of the vote in Saxony-Anhalt, Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Müller accused German bishops of interfering in party politics in an interview with Kontrafunk.radio on 11 September. When asked about the [Berlin Archbishop Heiner Koch's] idea that the Church could do without Catholics who vote the 'wrong' way, Müller responded: "In my view, this is quite simply a clear abuse of office." The Church, he added, is "not a trade union". "When it comes to party-political preferences, bishops have no right to call into question the civil rights of Catholics." Müller also dismissed comparisons between the AfD and National Socialism as "far-fetched". Nazism was an ideology that was incompatible with Christianity. By contrast, the AfD has "a political programme that every individual citizen can judge for themselves". His message to Germany’s bishops: "Bishops …More

September 13 Saint John Chrysostom. breski1 Bishop of Constantinople, Doctor of the Church (344-407)Saint John Chrysostom, born in Antioch in 344, was endowed with a superior genius strengthened by a brilliant education. In order to break with a world which admired and courted him, in 374 he retired for six years to a neighboring mountain, having found Christ through his friendship with Saint Basil. After acquiring the art of Christian silence, he returned to Antioch and there labored as a priest under the direction of its bishop. His eloquence was such that the entire city, up to a hundred thousand listeners, came to hear him, a young man not yet thirty years old. He fled this popularity and adopted the monastic life for fourteen years, until he was taken forcibly to Constantinople, to be consecrated Patriarch of the imperial city in 398. The effect of his sermons was everywhere marvelous. He converted a large number of pagans and heretics by his eloquence, then in its most brilliant …More
Cath intruth BENEDICT XVI GENERAL AUDIENCE Saint Peter's Square Wednesday, 19 September 2007 Saint John Chrysostom (1) Dear Brothers and Sisters, This year is the 16th centenary of St John Chrysostom's death (407-2007). It can be said that John of Antioch, nicknamed "Chrysostom", that is, "golden-mouthed", because of his eloquence, is also still alive today because of his works. An anonymous copyist left in writing that "they cross the whole globe like flashes of lightening". Chrysostom's writings also enable us, as they did the faithful of his time whom his frequent exiles deprived of his presence, to live with his books, despite his absence. This is what he himself suggested in a letter when he was in exile (To Olympias, Letter 8, 45). He was born in about the year 349 A.D. in Antioch, Syria (today Antakya in Southern Turkey). He carried out his priestly ministry there for about 11 years, until 397, when, appointed Bishop of Constantinople, he exercised his episcopal ministry in the …More

Cartusialover explains on September 11 how the Charterhouse offers a radical answer to a world drowning in noise: silence, solitude and prayer. At first, the cell is a refuge. It shuts out noise, distraction and the demands of modern life. The monks call this phase the “Tender Mother.” But the comfort does not last. Soon the same walls become demanding. The routine remains. The view does not change. Prayer can feel dry. God can seem distant. The cell becomes the “Strict Teacher.” There is nowhere to hide. Regrets return. Illusions collapse. Sin is exposed. “Silence is a confrontation with the sad realities within us,” says Dom Lorenzo Maria. Yet the Carthusian does not see this darkness as failure, but as purification: “We rise and we fall,” the Desert Fathers said. The cell strips away the false God made in man’s own image—a God who is always comforting, manageable and predictable—and teaches the monk to seek the real God, the absolute Other.

Forgiveness Frees Your Soul From Resentment The second reading emphasizes that we are called to live for others, not ourselves, and that forgiveness is a crucial aspect of this. Forgiveness is challenging, but it is essential for our own spiritual well-being and for aligning ourselves with Christ’s teachings. Holding onto anger and resentment only hurts us, not the person who wronged us. Forgiveness is a crucial aspect of Christian teaching, requiring one person to forgive and two to reconcile. A process of forgiveness involves asking the Holy Spirit for guidance, acknowledging the hurt, separating the person from their actions, and renouncing negative beliefs and judgments. This process culminates in asking Jesus for forgiveness, blessing the offender, and seeking healing for oneself. Fr.
