There are so few African-American bishops because of “racism,” Washington Auxiliary Bishop Robert Boxie said in a September 7 interview with Catholic News Service. He was appointed by Pope Leo XIV on May 1. The numbers: Of 268 active U.S. bishops, five (2%) are Black. Black Americans make up 2% of U.S. Catholics and, over the past 20 years, about 2% of U.S. priestly ordinations.
Why are there so few Black bishops in America? “The short answer is racism.” America’s youngest bishop, Robert Boxie, Auxiliary of Washington.
The priest behind the infamous “Eucharist at sea” has been appointed head of University Pastoral Ministry for the Archdiocese of Milan for the next five years. In July 2022, Don Mattia Bernasconi celebrated a Novus Ordo Mass waist-deep in the sea off Crotone, using an inflatable mattress as an “altar.” Since September 1, he has overseen the Archdiocese’s pastoral work with university students, while continuing as chaplain at Humanitas University, a position he has held since 2023.

Emma Bonino has died at 78. For decades, she was one of Italy’s most prominent Radical politicians. She was a leading campaigner for abortion, euthanasia, drug legalization, and more secular causes. Although she was not a medical professional, Bonino, according to her own testimony, performed over 10,000 illegal abortions. She is one of the most sinister figures in the history of Italy. Bonino nevertheless praised Francis, who maintained a warm personal relationship with her and personally visited her in 2024, bringing her flowers and chocolates.

There was once a woman in a small town who loved gossip. Whenever she heard something interesting about a neighbor, she could hardly wait to tell someone else. One day, a rumor reached her about a man who lived nearby. She repeated it to a friend. The friend told someone else. Within a few days, almost everyone in town had heard the story. There was only one problem. It wasn’t true. When the man learned what people were saying about him, he was deeply hurt. His reputation had been damaged by something that had never happened. The woman who started spreading the rumor eventually learned the truth. For the first time, she felt ashamed of what she had done. Wanting to make things right, she went to an elderly woman in town who was known for her wisdom. “I made a terrible mistake,” she admitted. “I repeated something about my neighbor that wasn’t true, and now everyone knows it. How can I undo the damage?” The older woman listened carefully. Then she said, “Go to the market and buy a chicken …More
Bishop Schneider: Document Against Co-Redemptrix Will One Day Be Cancelled Synodality is a “very cunning code word to undermine Catholic doctrine”, Bishop Athanasius Schneider told AdVaticanum on September 10. He believes the vagueness of the word is deliberate, a means of gradually adapting Catholic doctrine, morality and ecclesial structures to Protestantism and contemporary attitudes toward sexuality. Monsignor Schneider calls synodality the height of the modernist movement, leading toward relativism. He adds that this openness has one notable exception: the traditional Latin Mass. “This document will be cancelled” Responding to the document Mater Populi Fidelis against the Marian titles Co-Redemptrix and Mediatrix of All Graces, Bishop Schneider argues that the Church cannot cancel language found in missals and used by popes, saints and Doctors of the Church. He believes the document, not the titles, will eventually disappear: “I think, in the future, this document will be cancelled.” …More

Tucker Carlson asks why algebra puts letters into numbers. Jess Elofson explains: "I think just to fuck with you." They discuss how they've never met anyone in their life who uses algebra, which is "fake math" for people "in the matrix." They conclude that caring about algebra is something that only "good little goy slaves" do.

The secret of “70 times 7”… Liturgy for September 13th – 24th Sunday in Ordinary Time Dear brothers and sisters, Jesus’s invitation to always forgive one another—just as His Father forgives—can help us understand how precious we are in the eyes of that Father who loved the world so much that He sent His only begotten Son to save us from eternal damnation and grant us eternal life. Jesus knows that the evil, frailties, and miseries of this life contribute to creating a sort of “invisible prison” around us—one that isolates us and prevents us from communicating with God, living in friendship with others, caring for creation, and knowing our true identity. In this wretched state, having fallen prey to despair, it seems to us that there is no way out. Nevertheless, Jesus knows that if, through the purity of His Love, He succeeds in overcoming the hardness of our pride and penetrate the prison of our hearts, then the desires for life, love, and happiness that God has hidden in the depths of …More
