Papst Leo wird operiert - Knoten in der Lunge! Der Eingriff ist bereits für die nächsten Tage geplant. Rom (kath.net) Am Sonntagmittag, im Anschluss an den Angelus, der vom Fenster des Apostolischen Palasts auf den Petersplatz hin gebetet wurde, teilte Papst Leo XIV. den Gläubigen mit, dass er in den nächsten Tagen operiert werde, um einen Knoten in der Lunge zu entfernen.

Dies waren seine Worte: „Meine Lieben, kürzlich haben die Ärzte bei einigen Untersuchungen einen begrenzten Knoten in meiner Lunge festgestellt.

US Bishop prohibits celebration facing the Lord (ad orientem). On October 2, Bishop Jeffrey Walsh, 60, of Gaylord, Michigan, issued a decree restricting the celebration of the Mass towards the Lord. It takes effect on October 15. Under the new rules, all Sunday and holy day Masses must be read - like a talk or show - facing the people. On weekdays, no more than two Masses per parish may be celebrated ad orientem, and only after consultation with the parish council and appropriate catechesis. Weddings, funerals, and other Masses with congregations must also be celebrated facing the people. Masses according to the 1962 Missal are exempt. The bishop invokes paragraph 299 of the General Instruction of the Roman Missal (GIRM), claiming it favors celebration versus populum. However, the text of GIRM 299 does NOT require Mass to be celebrated facing the people. It recommends a freestanding altar that can be walked around to incense it with a thurible and permits celebration versus populum. It …More

Leo XIV appoints another Bishop for England. He defended a homosexual Eucharist. Today, Pope Leo XIV appointed Bishop Timothy Menezes, 56, as the Bishop of Brentwood, succeeding Bishop Alan Williams, 75. Menezes has served as Auxiliary Bishop of Birmingham since his episcopal consecration in July 2024. As such, he defended the periodic homosexual Eucharists at St Patrick's parish in Coventry. The homosexual group there emerged from the Synodal process. Menezes wrote a June 1, 2025 statement about the "LGBTQ+ Vigil Welcome Mass" on May 10, 2025 : “In my conversations with some members of the group, they find attending Mass in a parish difficult against the backdrop of what they sometimes see to be a Church that does not accept them. This means that they find a Mass at which they know that they are accepted, which is a first step to hopefully full integration in our parish communities.” Notably, Bishop Menezes commented in support of the homosex Eucharist although Coventry was not within …More
Yemeni missile strike on Riyadh airport kills at least 12 — report A ballistic missile strike on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh has killed at least 12 people and injured more than 50, according to the New York Times. Amid a shortage of interceptors in Saudi Arabia, Houthi missiles are reaching the capital. Geopolitics Prime +++ [Comment] Number 1 the Houthis warned citizen not to enter Saudi airports. Number 2, it is very hypocrite of Saudi Arabia to talk about a war crime while Saudi Arabia itself impose a blockade on Yemen for several years which is a war crime. Number 3, Saudi Arabia could easily stop this bloodshed. It could stop the blockade, but instead it double downs because it is counting on the mercenaries from Pakistan, Syria and other poor countries. You can't buy a victory in a foreign country which its people is fighting for their survival and dignity. No matter how much mercenaries they send. They will not defeat the Houthis and we must not be surprised if …More
EXORCIST SUES FOR DEFAMATION Fr. Carlos Martins is suing an assistant to Fr. Chad Ripperger for defamation, after the assistant (Kyle Clement) essentially called Fr. Martins a fraud. Fr. Martins is an exorcist ad actum, meaning he is commissioned by bishops on a case-by-case basis to perform exorcisms in their diocese. This has been confirmed in writing by Fr. Martins' religious superior, and confirmed by Fr. Martins himself. For whatever reason, Clement claimed in 2024 that Martins is NOT an exorcist. Fr. Martins waited a year for a public retraction and apology, which never came - so he pursued reparation to his public reputation by filing a defamation lawsuit. youtube.com/watch?v=F0jJIXvjzig
Lord Bebo & Friends SLAP FOR THE VASSALS Europe is in shock after Trump made a deal with Putin and thanked him. Europeans tried to isolate Putin for years, while the US does deals that benefit America. The EU destroys its industry and cuts itself off from cheap Russian energy, yet Trump makes deals with Russia at will. This happened as Europe switched its diesel provider to the US… and can now buy Russian diesel via the US All von der Leyen and her sidekicks’ daily efforts to condemn Putin were washed away. How can you isolate Putin if Trump thanked him for the diesel deal? European leaders look like vassal clowns once again… they seem to enjoy this role. Join us | @MyLordBebo
So funny. That man put the US in serious trouble. He had to go to Putin as usual for help. And Putin who lives by; We will always help everyone we get along with. Even those we don't. Has come to our aid once again. Does anyone really appreciate President Putin for his patience? Or his kindness and love? Just a few who don't know the man, who prefer propaganda hates Putin. Thank GOD I know the man "very" well. But he is making a huge mistake by helping Trump out. Though I know Putin is doing it mainly for us the citizens, whom Trump put us in a dangerous position. But what is Trump getting that diesel for? For us? Or his jets to fly to Iran to bomb them? We will know in the next 30 days or less.
President Putin will be sending the US 800,000 tonnes of Diesel. GTV (ai) no doubt is preventing me from posting it.

“Stop the Circular Firing Squad”: CIC Co-Founder Calls Traditional Catholics to Unity In his closing remarks at the 2026 Catholic Identity Conference, CIC Co-founder Eric Frankovitch delivers a blunt challenge to traditional Catholics: stop attacking one another. With the Traditional Latin Mass facing continued pressure and serious battles raging within the Church, Frankovitch argues that Catholics must reject factional warfare, support faithful priests and communities, and unite around the inheritance they are called to preserve.

Several bishops from the Amoris Laetitia summit ask to see "what is good" in cohabiting couples
Archbishop presents sexual morality as an “ideal” instead of “rules to follow” at current Vatican meeting. At Leo XIV’s meeting marking the tenth anniversary of Amoris Laetitia, Archbishop Timothy Costelloe of Perth, Australia called for “a shift in the Church’s culture” in his October 9 address. Discussing contemporary attitudes toward sexuality, he stated that “the concept of a necessary link between sexual activity and procreation, […] is no longer widely understood or accepted.” Archbishop Costelloe advocated presenting the Church’s theology of marital intimacy as “an ideal worth striving for rather than as a list of rules and regulations to be followed.” He repeated his point: “Presenting ideals to work towards rather than rules to follow is more likely to win people over and enable them to see the values which underpin those rules and regulations.” Monsignor Costelloe stated that young couples living together before marriage are “falling short of the ideal of Chistian marriage,”…More
Well, I suppose that opens the barn doors. Aren't there an awful lot of "ideals" in what our Lord teaches and expects of us?! "Be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect." Smacks of 'idealism' to me(!) Lord, have mercy on the elevated imbeciles, but save us from them first.
