Angela Merkel admitted on camera that she deliberately flooded Germany with Muslim migrants to “stop the far-right.” She preferred to erase her own people and put them in danger rather than risk losing power.
Monsignor Stephen Rossetti, removed in June as an exorcist by Washington Cardinal Robert McElroy, is continuing his deliverance ministry. In an August 3 email to subscribers, Monsignor Rossetti said he remains a priest in good standing in his home Diocese of Syracuse, New York, and will continue his work through the St. Michael Center, which operates within the territory of the Washington archdiocese. On June 3, Cardinal McElroy removed Rossetti as an archdiocesan exorcist and ended all affiliation between the Archdiocese of Washington and Rossetti's St. Michael Center. Monsignor Rossetti argues that he retains priestly faculties in several dioceses and exorcist faculties in two others. He also says his own bishop has encouraged him to continue the ministry. The June controversy followed Rossetti's eccentric claim that UFOs "are, in fact, demons." Cardinal McElroy - who had removed him for this claim - later said the decision was not about UFOs but reflected his view that the role of an …More
Apologies for straying from the topic, but if anyone knows anything about the new Bishop of Karaganda, Father Piotr Plytowany, I would be interested to hear it. Thank you very much.
On 6 August, Italian journalist David Murgia published the results of a confidential 2016 consultation within the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith concerning the alleged apparitions at Medjugorje on IlSegnoDiGiona.com. Two Thirds of the Congregation said Medjugorje was NOT Supernatural According to Murgia, 33 participants were asked to provide written opinions, or 'vota', on the Medjugorje phenomenon. Murgia reports the following results (17 September 2016): 21 participants chose 'constat de non supernaturalitate' (not of supernatural origin). 9 participants chose 'constat de supernaturalitate' (supernatural origin). 3 chose 'non constat de supernaturalitate' (the supernatural character has not been established). This corresponds to approximately 63.6 per cent for 'not supernatural', while only nine voted in favour. Ruini Commission, 2010-2014 This voting followed the work of the International Commission of Inquiry on Medjugorje, commonly known as the Ruini Commission. The …More
Nothing sensational! The authenticity of the apparitions remained unresolved, yet what mattered were the many confessions and fervent prayers. That is why it is an important place of prayer!

Ezekiel 2:8–3:4 “You, son of man, listen to what I say to you.” Let us remain constantly attentive to the Holy Spirit, to the understanding of God. Matthew 18:1–5, 10, 12–14 “Unless you turn and become like children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven.” We see the importance of always returning to the childlike joy within us, so that we may be constantly with the Lord in our hearts and in His Heart. Biblical texts: NAB-RE Normand Thomas.
Hiroshima must remain forever in humanity's memory as a warning, not a precedent. Behind that explosion lay lives, families, dreams, and generations scarred by a pain that should never be repeated. No conflict, ideology, or pursuit of power can justify such a tragedy. May the memory of Hiroshima help us understand that, given our capacity for self-destruction, peace, dialogue, and reason are not merely options—they are a responsibility we owe to humanity and to generations yet to come. Never again a nuclear war.
Hiroshima debe permanecer para siempre en la memoria de la humanidad como una advertencia, no como un precedente. Tras aquella explosión había vidas, familias, sueños y generaciones marcadas por un dolor que jamás debería repetirse. Ningún conflicto, ideología o afán de poder puede justificar semejante tragedia. Que el recuerdo de Hiroshima nos ayude a comprender que, dada nuestra capacidad de autodestrucción, la paz, el diálogo y la razón no son meras opciones: son una responsabilidad que tenemos con la humanidad y con las generaciones venideras. Nunca más una guerra nuclear.
The Redemption of Man and the Rejection of “Holy Sex” A Patristic and Scholastic Disputation Against the Modern Exaltation of Carnal Pleasure “The first man Adam was made into a living soul; the last Adam into a quickening spirit.” —1 Corinthians 15:45 Prologue: The Question Before Us There is a fundamental question which must be asked before we speak of the holiness of sexual pleasure: What is man? And immediately after that: What became of man through the Fall? For if we begin with fallen man as though his present condition were the standard of human nature, we shall inevitably mistake the wounds of the Fall for the original design of God. This is precisely the danger in the modern exaltation of sexuality. The question is no longer merely: "Is marital intercourse lawful?" The Catholic tradition already answers that question. The more profound question is: "What ought the Christian to desire within the marital act?" And here a profound difference appears between the ascetical tradition …More
Has the US Already Undergone a Soft Breakup? [Disunited States of America] Aug. 9, 2026 nytimes.com/…erica-politics-blue-red-democrats-re… By Kurt Andersen Mr. Andersen is the author of the forthcoming novel “The Breakup.” “I actually think,” Rush Limbaugh told his many millions of listeners during the weeks between Donald Trump losing the 2020 election and his supporters’ assault on the Capitol, “that we’re trending toward secession. It can’t go on this way. There cannot be a peaceful coexistence of two completely different theories of life, theories of government, theories of how we manage our affairs.” Twenty months later, on the day the F.B.I. seized thousands of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago, The Times reported that “posts on Twitter that mentioned ‘civil war’ had soared nearly 3,000 percent in just a few hours” and “jumped again a few weeks later, after President Joe Biden branded Mr. Trump and ‘MAGA Republicans’ a threat to ‘the very foundations of our republic.’” Days after …More
Bishop Mark A. Eckman, 67, of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, will bring an end to the traditional Latin Mass at St. Titus Church in Aliquippa after nearly 20-years. Bishop Eckman was appointed Auxiliary Bishop of Pittsburgh in 2021. In June 2025, Leo XIV promoted him to Bishop of Pittsburgh. In a letter dated 7 August (see below), Monsignor Eckman announced that the final Mass to be held at St. Titus using the 1962 Missal is scheduled for 4 September. The remaining two traditional Latin Masses in Pittsburgh are offered by the Institute Christ the King in Brighton Heights and by the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X in the West End. Bishop Eckman said his predecessor, Bishop David A. Zubik, received Vatican permission in 2022 to continue the Mass at St. Titus. The initial two-year authorization was extended in September 2024 for another two years. The Bishop didn't seek another extension, “The permission to celebrate according to the older ritual in a parish church was only ever meant to be …More
