Cardinal Reinhard Marx of Munich has lamented about what he describes as a "coordinated campaign" on social media against the German Synod, he told Herder Korrespondenz. He is frustrated about “the narrative” portraying the German Synodal as schismatic and that it gained such strong influence. “This is also a phenomenon of social media, especially among the more reactionary camp,” Cardinal Marx used Marxist language. “They are very well coordinated in their efforts, particularly in the United States. This applies to politics, and it also applies to the Church. The other side [that is not interested in the Church] isn’t as active there. I have repeatedly pointed out to both Francis and Leo XIV that propaganda is taking place.” And: “In terms of communication, it certainly would have been better to talk to one another more. But perhaps we - myself included - should have sought dialogue earlier. I admit, however, that I was worried we wouldn’t have made any progress then. Now the task …More

"We tend to think that when the Church is talking about morality, that the only issue of morality is sexual. And in reality, I believe there are much greater, more important issues, such as justice, equality, freedom of men and women, freedom of religion, that would all take priority before that particular issue."
On the return flight to Rome today, Pope Leo XIV was asked about the decision of Cardinal Reinhard Marx of Munich, Germany, to enforce "blessings" for homosexual couples in his archdiocese. Leo XIV replied: "First of all, I think it’s very important to understand that the unity or division of the Church should not revolve around sexual matters. We tend to think that when the Church is talking about morality, that the only issue of morality is sexual. And in reality, I believe there are much greater, more important issues, such as justice, equality, freedom of men and women, freedom of religion, that would all take priority before that particular issue. The Holy See has already spoken to the German bishops. The Holy See has made it clear that we do not agree with the formalized blessing of couples, in this case, homosexual couples, as you asked, or couples in irregular situations, beyond what was specifically, if you will, allowed for by Pope Francis in saying all people receive blessings. …More
On 23 April, Bishop emeritus Joseph Strickland of Tyler, Texas, commented on X.com on the homosexual 'blessing' in the Archdiocese of Munich: "This is evil and must be opposed by every faithful Catholic. Woe to so-called shepherds who lead the sheep astray. Rome should speak clearly and immediately but all I hear is silence. Blessing sin is the complete opposite of love." Cardinal Reinhard Marx of Munich has instructed all priests and full-time pastoral staff in the archdiocese to perform, enable or facilitate 'blessings' of same-sex and adulterous couples. #newsRyvhmffviq
On the first anniversary of the death of Pope Francis, the question is no longer whether his legacy will endure, but how it is already unfolding. It is becoming harder to draw a clear line between the end of his pontificate and the beginning of that of Pope Leo XIV. The continuity is striking – and intentional.
Bishop Athanasius Schneider, in his 2022 book The Catholic Mass, referred to a speech by Archbishop Paul-Pierre Philippe, OP as “one of the most doctrinally and liturgically sound contributions during the conciliar debate on concelebration.”
Thu Apr 23, 2026 - 3:56 pm EDTThu Apr 23, 2026 - 4:43 pm EDT (LifeSiteNews) — A Dominican archbishop’s opposition to non-traditional ideas of how priests should concelebrate Mass, a topic debated at the Second Vatican Council, is making the rounds online. Bishop Athanasius Schneider, in his 2022 book The Catholic Mass, referred to a speech by Archbishop Paul-Pierre Philippe, OP as “one of the most doctrinally and liturgically sound contributions during the conciliar debate on concelebration.” “The ritual form of Eucharistic concelebration introduced after the Second Vatican Council, and its practice in the life of the Church today, is certainly contrary to the entire tradition of both the Eastern and Western Church,” Schneider wrote. “The vision of the Council Fathers corresponded to the constant practice of the Church, where the concelebration of the Eucharist was done according to hierarchical order, that is, the cardinals and bishops with the pope and the priests with the bishop …
On the return flight to Rome on April 23, Leo XIV took questions from selected journalists. Main quotes. - We must promote a culture of peace. The issue is not whether there is regime change or not; the issue is how to promote the values we believe in without the death of so many innocent people. - The situation in Iran is clearly very complex. Even the negotiations themselves—one day Iran says yes and the United States says no, and vice versa. - I carry with me a photo of a Muslim child who, during the visit to Lebanon, was waiting there with a sign saying “Welcome Pope Leo.” He has been killed in this final phase of the war. - A state has the right to regulate its borders. I am not saying that everyone must be allowed to enter without order. - We must treat migrants humanely, not treat them worse than animals, as often happens. - The issue of human trafficking is also part of migration. - What are we doing in richer countries to change the situation in poorer countries? - Africa is …More
Go to your muslim friends and tell THEM 'we must promote a culture of peace'. Tell them to their faces - unambiguously ie tell them to stop murdering and hating Christians. Tell them that their populations in the Christian West need to respect OUR culture, OUR Christianity, OUR history - or leave. Preferably leave. Start preaching it regularly to the whole world without exception - and see what happens.

People have fallen into unbelief because they have completely lost the spirit of prayer, or never had it at all—in short, because they do not pray. The prince of this century [the devil] has free rein in the hearts of such people; he is their master. Because they do not pray, they do not ask the Lord for the dew of His Grace (for only those who seek receive the gifts of the Lord). Consequently, their hearts, corrupted by nature and lacking the nourishing dew of the Holy Spirit, have dried up. From this extreme dryness, they are finally set ablaze by the hellish flame of unbelief and various passions. The devil then knows how to ignite the passions that sustain this terrible fire, triumphing at the sight of the perishing souls—souls redeemed by the blood of Him who purified them.
