The Mass in the Roman rite touches on the very idea of tradition in the Church, Cardinal Jean-Marc Aveline of Marseille, president of the French bishops, told KTO on April 5. Bishops are called to show “pastoral solicitude” toward those Catholics: “First, to welcome them. It is not about judging them.” He added that this welcome should not begin by trying to redirect them and “not to say: 'they should go elsewhere or do it differently'.” At the same time, Cardinal Aveline emphasized that this welcome must remain within the framework of official Church structures: “Tradition goes all the way to the last council, including the Second Vatican Council.” Cardinal Aveline added that the liturgy and Vatican II “is not necessarily irreconcilable” as there is “a hermeneutic of continuity”. Councils “do not abolish previous ones.” On the announcement of episcopal consecrations by the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X., Cardinal Aveline spoke of “a cause of sadness.” He believes: “It is …More
A heretical, non-dogmatic megacouncil that eliminated the Tradition of the Church and opened the doors to the current apostasy. No, thank you; we will never accept the apostate ecumenical heresy that violates the First Commandment.
Catholic Traditionalists elaborate still more by giving Putin a messianic role. Here are some of the incoherencies we have heard:"Putin is a good Christian who goes to Church and kisses the Gospel in the hands of the Moscow patriarch."
Bird’s Eye View of the News RUSSIA'S PSY-WAR AGAINST THE WEST - The theater of military operations is changing quickly with the Ukrainian resistance killing about 1,000 Russian soldiers per day and destroying a considerable part of the latter's lethal equipment, according to data released by the Ukrainian Minister of Defense. Although contradictory data are being spread, so far it seems that the Russian troops have not been able to gain and hold control of any important city in the invaded territory, as reported by American experts on Russian strategy. Bordyanka, Ukraine, bombarded on March 3, 2022 - Reuters/Epoch Times While the first blow of the red onslaught has met with a partial failure, thus obliging the invader to change its strategy and resort to airstrikes and heavy artillery missile fire over the cities to force their surrender, let me analyze the psychological assault made by the communists. The Russian psychological warfare (psy-war) has been far more efficient than their …
Bishop Athanasius Schneider published an article on DianeMontagna.substack.com about the Co-Redemptrix. Reprinted with permission. They Could Not Have Been Mistaken: The Voice of the Saints, Doctors, and the Ordinary Magisterium of the Church in Affirming Mary as “Co-Redemptrix” and “Mediatrix of All Graces”. By Bishop Athanasius Schneider Over the course of time, the Ordinary Magisterium, together with numerous Saints and Doctors of the Church, have taught the Marian doctrines of Coredemption and Mediation, employing among other expressions the specific titles “Co-Redemptrix” and “Mediatrix of All Graces.” Consequently, it cannot be maintained that the Ordinary Magisterium, along with Saints and Doctors of the Church over so many centuries, could have led the faithful astray through a consistently inappropriate use of these Marian titles. Moreover, throughout the ages, this Marian doctrine and the use of these titles have also expressed the sensus fidei—the sense of faith of the …More

On April 9, 2026, the Holy See Press Office announced that Pope Leo XIV appointed the listed figures as members of the Dicastery for Communication: Curia Cardinal Luis Tagle, 68, Philippines He is considered emotionally instable and holds pro-homosexual views: “The harsh words that were used in the past to refer to homosexuals and divorced and separated people, the unwed mothers, et cetera, in the past they were quite severe,” Tagle told a Catholic youth conference in London in 2015. In 2017, he led a social media initiative in the Philippines called the Lazarus Project, to call for homosexual acceptance in churches. In 2019, he called on Catholic youth to stop discriminating against homosexual people. Furthermore, Cardinal Tagle believes that there is no all-encompassing answer to adultery: “Every situation for those who are divorced and remarried is quite unique. To have a general rule might be counterproductive in the end.” Cristóbal López Romero, 72, of Rabat, Morocco Spanish born …More

In an interview with the Austrian TV Channel ORF in the Kremlin, President Vladimir Putin claimed that his government does not restrict political freedoms and civil liberties of the Russian people. “Our mass media is free. People are free to speak out and make a name for themselves as representatives of many political movements do,” he said. We find Putin’s statement is false.

Bishops of the Chaldean Catholic Church have elected Archbishop Emil Nona as the new patriarch following a meeting with Pope Leo XIV at the Vatican, the patriarchate announced on Sunday. “His Grace Bishop Emil Shimoun Nona was elected as Patriarch of the Chaldean Catholic Church, and he chose for himself Mar Paul Nona III as his patriarchal name,” the Chaldean Patriarchate said in a statement. Nona, 58, led the Chaldean Archdiocese of Mosul before the city’s takeover by Islamic State (ISIS) jihadists in 2014, which forced him into exile. He was later appointed to lead the Chaldean Church in Australia and New Zealand. He currently serves as the head of the diocese of Sydney. The Chaldean church was rocked last month by the sudden resignation of longtime patriarch Cardinal Louis Raphael Sako, who announced that Pope Leo had accepted his resignation. On Friday, the synod of Chaldean Catholic bishops met with Pope Leo at the Vatican as part of their meetings to elect a new patriarch. Nona …More
According to the media outlet "The Pillar", Nona was a consensus candidate for the Chaldean bishops who supported Archbishop Warda, Archbishop of Erbil, a figure known in the United States for his relationship with the Knights of Columbus and an enemy of the former Patriarch Sako; and those who supported Bishop Yaldo, auxiliary bishop of Cardinal Sako himself.
Pro-homosexual Luxembourg Cardinal Jean-Claude Hollerich has warned that the idea of female ordination would "currently" split the Church. In an interview with VaticanNews.va on 10 April, Cardinal Hollerich referred to the divisions within the Anglican group following the appointment of Sarah Mullally. According to the cardinal, any [impossible] change in access to ordained ministry must come through “the consensus of the whole Church,” not through isolated regional decisions. However, Hollerich claimed a growing frustration among “many” women. For him it is difficult to imagine a Church enduring long-term if “half of the People of God suffer because they have no access to ordained ministry.” Asked about a possible timeline, Cardinal Hollerich said: “I leave that to the Holy Spirit.” In the meantime, he wants to expanding women’s roles in decision-making within the Church. He has three women serving as episcopal delegates in his Archdiocese for consecrated life, the social sector,…More

I guess the Roman Catholic Church was wrong and disobedient then throughout most of her history. And all the Eastern Churches are wrong and disobedient for using various forms of intinction and spoons and forbidding Eastern Catholics from touching the Eucharist with their hands, too. Doctors of the Church, the Early Church Fathers, popes, saints, and encyclicals throughout most of the Church's history were wrong, because they interpreted receiving on the tongue or directly in the mouth as "taking". Well, in that case I'm glad we have the extremely wise and prudent and charitable @chris griffin here, on this online forum, to tell us what the saints and popes and Fathers of the Church and Doctors of the Church were too ignorant to teach us, and to tell us about how we are being prideful for insisting on not desecrating the Eucharist with our hands.

Wouldn't they need a launch pad made just for the Sarmat? Didn't they make one specifically for it? RS 28 Sarmat Nuclear Missile Tested Successfully #satan2 #icbm #russiaicbm You just can't fire it off of anything. As far as I know. I use to watch one video after the other on the Sarmat. There has to be the right launching pad. So, they would also have to send the pad as well. I don't think Russia will do that. But if they do.... GOOD for Russia. The US loves to attack countries that don't have nuclear weapons and think are weak. Russia doesn't like bullies. That's why trump keeps backing off on Russia and China directly! But they will have no other way to attack both countries, but with nukes. That will come later.
Listen to the audio version of this content What is an Examination of Conscience? An Examination of Conscience, a cornerstone of Catholic life, is a reflective exercise in which you assess your thoughts, words, and deeds in light of the Church’s moral teachings to prepare yourself well for the sacrament of confession. This introspective examination serves as a means of spiritual growth, reconciliation, and renewal. No matter a person’s age, an Examination of Conscience is relevant and beneficial in preparing for confession. For adults, it offers an opportunity to evaluate your commitment to our Lord Jesus Christ and his Church. This further fosters personal holiness in helping you gain a deeper love for the Lord, your loved ones, and your neighbor. Teens benefit by developing a conscience informed by timeless moral principles (Rom. 2:14–16), not the zeitgeist (spirit of the age), so that they can better navigate the challenges of adolescence and young adulthood. Even children can …
