Bishop Schneider: "There is a widespread ignorance among bishops and cardinals regarding the history of the liturgy."

Roche’s Liturgical Document Is Manipulative, Historically Distorted, and Hostile to Tradition - Schneider

Bishop Athanasius Schneider argues in an interview with Diane Montagna on January 20 that Cardinal Roche’s document on the liturgy to the consistory is shaped by a predetermined opposition to the Mass in the Roman rite. Below is a summarized version Bishop Schneider’s critique. He calls Cardinal Roche manipulative, dishonest, rigid and a clericalist.
The original English interview is available in authorised translations into Italian, German, French and Spanish.
Methodological Bias and Use of History
Schneider maintains that Roche’s document lacks genuine objectivity and instead selectively employs historical data to justify restrictions on the Traditional Roman Rite.
He argues that Roche:
· presents partial or misleading historical interpretations
· applies selective citations
· and frames conclusions in advance rather than deriving them from evidence
Schneider: “It appears driven by an agenda aimed at denigrating this liturgical form and ultimately eliminating it from ecclesial …More

The Holy See’s labor office is pushing back on claims of widespread worker dissatisfaction after an internal survey by the Association of Vatican Lay Employees (ADLV) alleged distrust of leadership and instances of workplace bullying.
In an interview with the official Vatican News outlet, Monsignor Marco Sprizzi, president of the Office of Labor of the Apostolic See (ULSA), said his office “always has its doors open” and stressed that its mission is to ensure “there are no situations in which employees’ rights are not respected or are violated in any way.”
“It doesn’t seem to me that the discontent is widespread,” Sprizzi said, noting that the survey sample was “very small,” amounting to “less than 5% of employees.”

Vatican rejects claims of widespread worker discontent after internal survey

The Holy See’s labor office is pushing back on claims of widespread worker dissatisfaction after an internal survey by the Association of Vatican Lay Employees (ADLV) alleged distrust of leadership and instances of workplace bullying.

“It doesn’t seem to me that the discontent is widespread,” Sprizzi said, noting that the survey sample was “very small,” amounting to “less than 5% of employees.”
According to the report, 250 people responded to the
survey, with about 80% of respondents belonging to the ADLV. The Holy See has around 4,200 workers, though Vatican News estimated the overall figure at more than 6,000 when including retirees.
Sprizzi added that …

John L. Allen Jr.: A life remembered in gratitude

Friends, colleagues, and regular Crux readers will know that my husband, John L. Allen Jr., has been battling cancer for some time, and has largely been absent from the site this year as he underwent treatment and fought for recovery.
It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that I convey, nearly four years after his diagnosis, that John lost his battle with cancer on Thursday, January 22, 2026, and is now resting in the arms of God, free from the pain and discomfort that he lived with for so long.
While words often fail in these moments, I want to offer a few words of thanks:
First, to our friends and community who have accompanied us throughout this journey, especially the past year. You have supported us with the sacraments, prayers, visits, meals, advice, rides to and from the hospital for treatment, and no small amount of chocolate and wine, but most importantly, with your presence, including a call system to ensure that I wasn’t alone at the end. We simply could not have gotten …

He was a Modernist revolutionary - albeit one of the more pleasant ones. However, he did angrily criticize the lifting of the excommunications of the SSPX bishops (and I thought argued disingenuously). I have prayed for his soul.

Let’s talk about The Disastrous Pontificate with its author Dominic J. Grigio

Os Justi Press have released their first book for 2026, Dominic J. Grigio’s ‘The Disastrous Pontificate: Pope Francis’ Rupture from the Magisterium.’ At over 870 pages, Peter Kwasniewski describes it as the definitive, encyclopedic guide to the heresies and destructive actions of Pope Francis and his collaborators. He explains that Dominic J. Grigio is the pen-name of a cleric in good standing with the Church who cannot reveal his identity for fear of reprisals against himself and his diocese. It has been strongly endorsed by eminent Catholic philosophers and theologians, including: Rev. Gerald E. Murray, Edward Feser, Eduardo Echeverria, Philip F. Lawler, John Rist, Michael Sirilla, Claudio Pierantoni, and Josef Seifert.
Dominic J. Grigio has given his first interview to Gloria.TV

Vatican Reviews Invitation to Trump’s "Peace" Council

U.S. President Donald Trump has invited dozens of world leaders to join his Board of Peace initiative aimed at resolving global conflicts. Diplomats know it would undermine the role of the United Nations and established multilateral diplomacy.
The initaitve was started to “help manage” the Gaza ceasefire and reconstruction
Trump would serve as chairman — effectively for life.
Holy See Reviewing Next Steps
Cardinal Pietro Parolin replied: “President Trump is asking various countries to participate. I seem to have read in the newspapers this morning that Italy, too, is considering whether to join or not.
We have also received the invitation to the Board of Peace for Gaza. The Pope has received it and we are assessing what to do.
We are looking into the matter, and I believe it is an issue that requires some time to be properly considered before giving a response.”

Bishop Felix Genn of Münster, Germany, has faced significant criticism and complaints regarding his handling of sexual abuse cases within his diocese, particularly following a damning 2022 report that covered decades of misconduct

Bishop Oscar Domingo Sarlinga
In 2008, he was the focus of an unsuccessful plot to remove Cardinal Bergoglio from his office of Archbishop of Buenos Aires due to conflict between Bergoglio and the Kirchner administration. It would have had Bergoglio moved to a curial office in Rome and had Sarlinga become his replacement as Archbishop. Sarlinga has confirmed that the plot existed, though he denies involvement in it.

Anti-Catholicism is increasingly being ignored and worse is that it is actively being facilitated to the point of the purposely hidden martyrdom of many Catholics.
This is the reason that the world is in the state of collapse, demolition, and in a state in which the domination of EVIL is being openly celebrated by those who are bought and paid for by the billionaire class for them to do their best to be placed and to remain protected in their positions within the "high places" such as Bondi has now revealed.

Does the Mass have a future?
The title may seem provocative, but I have no doubt whatsoever that the Mass has a future, because there is no Church without the Mass, and if the Church has already lasted two thousand years, it will last at least another two thousand, and I affirm this without any arrogance or pride, but out of the faith and conviction I feel. The title stems from some data we are receiving regarding the participation of Christians in Sunday Mass. Today the Church is very focused on large events and the statistics of these large events, large gatherings, pilgrimages, jubilees, and so on; there is great rejoicing at the mobilizations and crowds that gather, but it is important not to forget the reality of the concrete, everyday Church, the parochial reality of the Church. We may even have many cases of Christians who participate in these large events, but who are very distant from and indifferent to the parish to which they belong. It is also important that the Church does …More
