One evening, a king was walking through the palace gardens with his minister, proudly showing off a new sword. While demonstrating it, the sword slipped from his hand and badly cut the thumb on his right hand. The king was furious. But the minister calmly said, “Your Majesty, perhaps even this is part of God’s mercy.” The king did not appreciate the comment. “How can you call this mercy?” he shouted. Angry at what seemed like an insensitive response, he ordered the minister thrown into prison. Not long afterward, the king went hunting in the forest. Without his experienced minister beside him, he wandered too far and entered territory controlled by a remote tribe. The tribesmen captured him and brought him before their chief. According to the story, they were preparing a human sacrifice and began examining the king to make sure he was physically whole. Then the chief noticed the injured thumb. Because of the wound, the king was considered unsuitable for the ritual. So they released him. …More
Additional info: The new Vatican document calls the Earth Bible Project—an eco-hermeneutical approach to Scripture—“a valid proposal,” reproduces its principles of “intrinsic worth,” “interconnectedness,” “voice,” “mutual custodianship” and “resistance,” and declares that “these principles are in line with Laudato si’.”
Today, the 'International Theological Commission' published the verbose document “Caring for Our Common Home” (40,000 unreadable words). Cardinal Víctor Fernández brought the text to the consideration of Leo XIV on 28 July and authorized its publication on 21 August. Positive Reception of Teilhard de Chardin The text is often buried beneath dense and highly abstract vocabulary, much of it reflecting a cosmic and evolutionary vision of creation. The document speaks of the Holy Spirit “Christifying” creation through a “progressive growth”, so that creation “advances toward its eschatological fulfillment.” Elsewhere it describes “all matter” as tending toward transformation and fulfillment in Christ. Christ is consequently described as “the axis of the maturation of the world.” This language is strongly reminiscent of the cosmic heresy of the French Jesuit Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (1881-1955). The document admits that it received "the contribution of Fr. Teilhard de Chardin” (footnote 184). …More
On August 24, 2024, Rev. Edgard Rimaycuna, Leo XIV’s personal secretary, shared on his Facebook profile the press release issued by the Peruvian Episcopal Conference (CEP) announcing the disqualification of canon lawyer Ricardo Coronado, reports InfoVaticana.com. At the time, the canon lawyer represented the three victims of Father Eleuterio Vásquez, known as “Lute.” Rev. Rimaycuna shared it on the same day it was published, adding one comment: “For those who want to stay informed.” Rimaycuna was a disciple of Lute, according to Santiago Roncagliolo’s book The Shepherd and the Wolves. According to InfoVaticana, Lute admitted that he sexually abused minor girls and maintained that it was not a crime because there had been no “complete sexual act.” The Lawyer Was Disqualified The CEP statement said that the bishops had “determined” that the Rev. Ricardo Coronado Arrascue “cannot receive approval to act as an ecclesiastical lawyer” and that he should be prohibited from “acting as counsel …More
EWTNNews.com was supposed to give EWTN’s international news operation a single global home. Seven months on, the domain remains outside Cloudflare Radar’s Top 100,000. Hardly an impressive digital calling card for Montse Alvarado as she moves on to lead the Vatican’s communications.
Cloudflare Radar data suggest that Gloria.tv is the only major Catholic website dentified in the global Top 10,000. Other major Catholic domains, including Vatican.va, VaticanNews.va or EWTN.com, appear only in the Top 100,000. The datasets do not provide ranks beyond the Top 100. The Top 10,000 and Top 100,000 are unordered buckets and domains in the downloaded files are listed alphabetically.

Pope Leo XIV’s four-day visit to France, scheduled for September 25–28, will take place under exceptionally heavy security. Around 850 additional police officers are expected to be deployed just for the Lourdes and Metz portions of the trip. France’s elite RAID tactical unit, explosives-detection dogs, and plainclothes officers will also be involved. Authorities plan extensive drone surveillance and anti-drone measures. Preparations in Lourdes have already included authorization for police drones over the city and sanctuary. TribuneChretienne.com points out that Islamic elements ("Islamism") remain France’s principal terrorist threat. French counterterrorism prosecutor Olivier Christen said that jihadist cases accounted for 94% of new counterterrorism investigations opened by April 1, 2026. On September 25, Leo XIV is due to visit the Élysée Palace, UNESCO and Notre-Dame, followed by a youth gathering in Saint-Denis. A major Paris celebration the following day could draw hundreds of …More
MEL GIBSON on the timing of his Resurrection of the Christ - “I thought I was late, 23 years later… But it’s just right.” (His Passion of the Christ returns to theatres Sep 10-17)
Despite severe flooding at St. John the Baptist Parish in Hagonoy, Bulacan, Philippines, Leian Lieza Galang and Gilbert Chico chose to go forward with their Catholic wedding on Sept. 1. With their clothes soaked and fewer than 15 guests present, they stood before the altar and received the Sacrament of Matrimony.
Sorry, the profane music and atmosphere used for the occasion of conferring -- for life -- the sacred Sacrament of Matrimony deserves to be flooded out.
LSN was nothing short heroic during COVID. The author's lukewarm defense of LSN during COVID is quite alarming given what COVID and the shot turned out to be. This is really a reflection of our current society's persistent denial of this nightmare.
Holy Matrimony despite epic floods in the Philippines, St John the Baptist Catholic Church and YES it is a novus ordo mass, our Lord STILL allows bread and wine to become His Holy Flesh and Blood, blessing this coupleand all... I ask health and perseverence in the faith our Lord Jesus Christ has taught. Blessings by the tons to this new couple. Amen

Two members of the Order of Discalced Carmelites serving in South Sudan’s Diocese of Torit have survived an ambush by armed bandits along the Juba-Torit highway.
In this interview, Olga Petersen, a former AfD member of the Hamburg Parliament, recounts her escape from Germany to Russia. The focus is on how a democratically elected representative was forced by political pressure, media smear campaigns, and the manipulation of state institutions such as the youth welfare office to flee her homeland with her four children and a dog. The interview with Olga Petersen covers: – The clandestine escape: Why Olga Petersen left Germany under the pretext of a vacation and how she only revealed the truth to her children upon arrival in Russia. – Political pressure in parliament: The consequences of her refusal to give a Ukrainian delegation a standing ovation and how a "damaged image" in the media triggered a wave of reprisals. – Election observation in Moscow: Her experiences during the 2024 presidential election and why her fact-based reporting was considered high treason against the German government's narrative in Germany. – Collective punishment and …More

Amos 3:3; “Do two people walk together, without agreeing?”: They will deceive, if posible, even the choosen: Many consecrated will break the Vows they made with God and embrace what is abominable to be “Canonically Recognized by the Pope”. 1) Matthew 24:25 “Behold, I have told you this in advance!”: 2) Judas 1:4; Certain people have crept in among you, and they are precisely those about whom you were warned in writing long ago, when they were condemned for denying all religion, turning the grace of our God into immorality, and rejecting our one Master and Lord, Jesus Christ. 3) 2 Peter 2:1–3; “Just as there were false prophets in the past history of our people, so you too will have your false teachers, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies and even deny the Lord who bought them. They will bring judgment on themselves quickly, and many will follow their shameful behavior, and because of them, the Way of Truth will be brought into disrepute on their account.” 4) Acts 20:29-30;…More

Szybko sprowadzą na siebie sąd, a wielu pójdzie za ich haniebnym postępowaniem, i z ich powodu Droga Prawdy zostanie zniesławiona”. 4) Dzieje Apostolskie 20:29–30; „Wiem, że po moim odejściu wkradną się między was okrutne wilki, które nie oszczędzą trzody; i że spośród was powstaną ludzie, którzy będą głosić przewrotne nauki, aby pociągnąć za sobą uczniów. 5) Ewangelia Jana 10:1; „Zaprawdę, zaprawdę, powiadam …More
Significant fact: - during the election of Pius XII, the white smoke lasted two minutes; - during the election of his successor on 26 October 1958, it lasted more than five minutes. Note: It is important to note that, for black or white smoke to be considered valid, it must be continuous: thus, two minutes for Pius XII and more than five minutes for his successor on 26 October 1958. A brief appearance of white smoke before a continuous stream of black smoke means nothing; similarly, a brief appearance of black smoke at the end of a continuous stream of white smoke means nothing either. I repeat: it is the continuity of the smoke’s colour that indicates whether or not a Pope has been elected. It is worth noting, for the record, that in the year 2025, 26 October falls on the same day (a Sunday) and on the same Feast of Christ the King as 26 October 1958, which was the 33rd celebration of this solemnity since its institution in December 1925.
