Excellent analysis and diagnosis of the anti-humanist challenges presented by Artificial Intelligence - by Russian philosopher and political analyst Alexandr Dugin
Not very smart nor charitable. Another example of legal positivism that is a residue from the Begoglian epoch. If you hold an ecclesial office you don't need justification for rules. Like the kid who asks his father: Why ? and the old man answers: Because I said so.
How is the Vatican addressing heretical German bishops who are proceeding with the formal blessing of homosexual unions? The National Catholic Reporter today reported: Dialogue between the Vatican and German bishops regarding the blessing of same-sex unions is ongoing, and it was too soon to talk about sanctions, said the Vatican secretary of state. Speaking to journalists in Rome May 6, Cardinal Pietro Parolin was asked if the Vatican intends to impose sanctions on the German bishops after the continued promotion of a handbook for blessing same-sex couples. “We are in dialogue on this point; it’s premature to say. It’s a decision that belongs to the pope, but we’ve already begun a dialogue, and I believe we can find a solution,” the cardinal said, according to the Italian news agency ANSA. How is the Vatican addressing the SSPX that is planning to ordain new bishops in order to continue its mission of preserving traditional Catholicism? According to LifeSite News, Pope Leo has …
[St. Bernard of Clairvaux – XI-XII Century AD; born: Burgundy, Kingdom of France/died: Clairvaux, Kingdom of France; (aged 62-63); Abbot; Mystic; Leader; co-founder of the Knights Templar; Last of the Fathers; Doctor Mellifluus] Chapter VII. Of love toward God not without reward: and how the hunger of man's heart cannot be satisfied with earthly things And now let us consider what profit we shall have from loving God. Even though our knowledge of this is imperfect, still that is better than to ignore it altogether. I have already said (when it was a question of wherefore and in what manner God should be loved) that there was a double reason constraining us: His right and our advantage. Having written as best I can, though unworthily, of God's right to be loved. I have still to treat of the recompense which that love brings. For although God would be loved without respect of reward, yet He wills not to leave love unrewarded. True charity cannot be left destitute, even though she is …More
"On a lower plane of action, it is the reluctant, not the eager, whom we urge by promises of reward. Who would think of paying a man to do what he was yearning to do already? For instance no one would hire a hungry man to eat, or a thirsty man to drink, or a mother to nurse her own child. Who would think of bribing a farmer to dress his own vineyard, or to dig about his orchard, or to rebuild his house? So, all the more, one who loves God truly asks no other recompense than God Himself; for if he should demand anything else it would be the prize that he loved and not God."
Archbishop Josef Grünwidl of Vienna, Austria - a proponent of female ordination and married priests who was appointed in autumn 2025 - spoke with Leo XIV on Monday about what he called “reform topics”. Talking to VaticanNews.va on 12 May, he declined to provide further details. During the audience, Monsignor Grünwidl wore a copy of Pope Francis' pectoral cross. The design is associated with Cardinal Joseph Bernardin of Chicago (+1996), who was accused of homosexually abusing seminarians and was known for hosting pyjama parties with young priests. When asked about his stance on blessings for same-sex couples, Monsignor Grünwidl said he was “very happy” with the homosexual pamphlet ‘Fiducia Supplicans’. He added that blessings “in a very simple form for irregular couples” should and could be possible. According to Archbishop Grünwidl, the German church is taking a “more direct path”. He continued: “I believe that the course begun by Pope Francis — reaching out to people who ask …More
“O Legionário”, São Paulo, May 14th 1944 by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira Nearly 30 years ago, the first worldwide conflagration was moving toward its decline. With the initial impetus of the Teutonic invasion contained, the French set about reconquering lost territory. For high-level politicians and military observers, the final result of the struggle was no longer in doubt. The entire strategy of the Germans was based on the hope of the blitzkrieg’s triumph. The first toss of the dice met with immense possibilities. But it was the only one. The Germans had lost. As for the Allies, it was just a question of time. Although on the battlefields the struggle remained white hot and German cannons thundered near Paris, financiers, sociologists, and politicians had already begun to murmur behind the scenes about how they would organize the postwar world. Their private whispering held far greater significance than the public clamor of the cannons. On the battlefields, a war that in essence had …More
[Saint Alphonsus Maria de Liguori – XVII – XVIII Century AD: born: Marianella, Kingdom of Naples/died: Pagani, Kingdom of Naples; (aged 90); spiritual writer, composer, musician, artist, poet, lawyer, scholastic philosopher, and theologian, Founder, Bishop, Doctor of the Church] 25. A noble youth, named Eschylus, being sent by the prince, his father, to Hildesheim, a city of Saxony, to study, abandoned himself to a dissolute life. He fell ill, and was near dying, and while in that state he had a vision. He saw himself shut up in a furnace of fire, and believed himself to be already in hell; and then he escaped from it through a hole and took refuge in a great place, where he found the most holy Mary [695] in the hall, and she said to him: "Rash man, do you dare to appear before me? Depart from here and go to the flames which you merit." The young man besought the Virgin to have mercy on him, and then turned to some persons who were near, and implored them to recommend him to Mary. They …More
"31. In Braganza there lived another youth who left the confraternity and abandoned himself to such vicious ways, that one day in despair he was going to throw himself into a river. But first he turned to our Lady and said: "Oh Mary, I have served you in the confraternity, will you help me?" The most holy Virgin appeared to him and said: "What are you doing? Do you wish to destroy both soul and body ? Go, make your confession, and return to the confraternity." The youth, encouraged by this, thanked the Virgin, and amended his life."
"33. A pupil had been instructed by his master to salute the most holy Virgin in these words: "Hail, oh mother of mercy." When he was at the point of death Mary appeared to him, and said: "My son, do you not know me? I am that mother of mercy whom you have saluted so many times." Then this servant of the Virgin extended his arms as if to follow her, and gently breathed his last."
The UK government announced on May 11 that Tarandip “Tammy” Kaur Sandhu will become Britain’s next ambassador to the Holy See later this year. Sandhu, who most recently served as British consul general in San Francisco, became a prominent public supporter of homosexual activism.

Daniel 3:14-23, 91-93: Nebuchadnezzar asked, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, is it true that you do not serve my gods and refuse to worship the golden statue I have set up? When you hear the sound of the trumpet, flute, lyre, harp, bagpipe, or any other instrument, are you willing to fall down and worship the statue I have made? If you refuse to worship it, you must be thrown immediately into the blazing furnace; and where is the God who could save you from my power?” Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego replied to King Nebuchadnezzar: “Your question hardly requires an answer: if our God, whom we serve, is able to save us from the blazing furnace and from your power, O king, he will save us; and even if He does not, you must know, O king, that we will not serve your god nor worship the statue you have set up.” These words infuriated King Nebuchadnezzar; he ordered the furnace to be heated seven times hotter than usual, and commanded some of his strongest soldiers to bind them and throw …More
Indian-born Cardinal George Jacob Koovakad of the Dicastery for Interreligious Dialogue published today the Vatican’s annual message for the pagan feast of Vesak, which commemorates the birth, enlightenment, and passing of the Buddha. The text includes writings of Buddha and quotations from Buddhist texts and combines that with passages from the Gospel. “This momentous festival,” the message states, “serves as an invitation to renew the path of wisdom, compassion, and peace.” The document also praises Buddhist teaching, stating: "The sayings of the Buddha offer an insightful path. The Buddha teaches: 'Hatred is never appeased by hatred; by non-hatred alone is hatred appeased.'" #newsAhaxllpwzl
Your ministers, executioners of souls?’ And He: “And how many executioners of souls there are in my Church! There are executioners attached to interests, who make a slaughter of souls, and who, with their example, instead of rendering souls detached from all that is earth, engulf them even more. There are the immodest ones, who, instead of purifying souls, disfigure them. There are executioners of pastimes, dedicated to pleasures, to strolls and other things, who, instead of rendering souls recollected and infusing in them love for prayer and retreat, distract them. These are all slaughters of souls. How much pain does my Heart not feel, in seeing that the very ones who were to help and sanctify souls, are the cause of their ruin.” Volume 15 Book of Heaven May 18, 1923 The executioners of souls present in the Church.
05/11/2026 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. The history of modern US think tanks begins not in Washington, but in Paris. In January 1919, the victors of the First World War met for the Versailles Peace Conference. Within the US delegation was a group of academics, bankers, and diplomats who called themselves ” The Inquiry “—a panel of experts personally assembled by President Wilson to prepare for the peace negotiations. This is how the fascinating story of the emergence of today’s “deep state” begins. The story is, of course, much older, and one would really have to start with Freemasonry and its fateful influence on the fate of the world. Nevertheless, this account provides a good summary of the causes behind the changes in today’s world. Yesterday’s article on tkp.at is titled: From dinner club to instrument of global control: The history of US think tanks and their long reach into Germany.Source. Any geopolitical analysis that ignores the influence of the Deep State on all …
I find this whole mess rather interesting to view. A few years ago, the SSPX people here on GTV jumped up and down, stamped their feet at the Orthodox Church, called them “Schismatics” and ensured that everyone knew that there was no Salvation outside the Church. Meaning that all the Eastern and Oriental Orthodox was going to Hell. I mentioned the examples of heresies in the Modern Church, and how none of these were found in the Orthodox Church, yet still they were proclaimed “ Schismatics” by the SSPX. So now, everyone sees the potential action of the SSPX being proclaimed Excommunication by Schism of Papal Authority – just like Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò. And yet, now these new Schismatics will still insist that the Eastern and Oriental Orthodox will go to Hell. What a bunch of Crap.
The Israeli authorities have refused to renew the residency visa of Jordanian priest Louis Salman, forcing him to leave Beit Sahur, near Bethlehem, after years of ministry in the West Bank.

Israeli authorities have expelled Catholic priest Father Louis Salman from Palestine after refusing to renew his residency permit following a lengthy and unusual security investigation.
Keir Starmer was hit with more resignations today after attempting to brush aside calls to step down at a toe-curling Cabinet meeting. Ministers Jess Phillips and Alex Davies-Jones declared they had lost confidence in the PM as his grip on power loosens further. The intervention came after members of his top team - said to include Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood - privately urged him to make a graceful exit in the wake of disastrous local elections. But Sir Keir effectively dared his rivals to move against him this morning, telling the weekly gathering in No10: 'The Labour Party has a process for challenging a leader and that has not been triggered. 'The country expects us to get on with governing. That is what I am doing and what we must do as a Cabinet.' Health Secretary Wes Streeting, regarded by Sir Keir's dwindling band of allies as being behind the coup, was present to hear the stark message. However, Sir Keir is said to have immediately moved on to the Iran war. According to …

Fr. Chad Ripperger shares personal testimony about the Nine First Fridays devotion to the Sacred Heart — and how a promise made in childhood protected three members of his own family at the hour of their death. His first brother: five priests at his deathbed. His second brother: all sacraments, including the apostolic pardon, 15 minutes before death. His father: last rites the day he died. "This devotion is real." He also recounts the story of a man who fell away from the faith entirely — yet God still provided a priest for his final confession, honouring a devotion made in youth. An unprovided death is dying in a state of mortal sin with no means to receive the sacraments. The Nine First Fridays is one of the surest ways the Church gives us to guard against it. 5 Priests Were at His Deathbed. Here's Why. | Fr. Ripperger
