The Bishop of Charlotte announced that beginning next month, altar rails, kneelers, prie-dieus, and intinction will not be permitted for reception of the Eucharist in the diocese. While affirming that standing is the normative posture in the U.S., Bishop Martin acknowledged that Catholics retain the right to receive kneeling and may not be denied Communion for doing so, urging the faithful to consider the value of a common posture as a sign of communal unity.

Charlotte Bishop Bans All Use of Kneelers for Communion

Bishop Michael Martin of Charlotte, North Carolina, has banned the public use of kneelers for receiving Communion with effect from 16 January 2026.
In a letter published on CharlotteDiocese.org on 17 December, he writes that using them is 'a visible contradiction to the normative posture of Holy Communion established by our episcopal conference'.
The text begins with pious or banal quotations.
He then admits that it is the right of the faithful to kneel when receiving Holy Communion. But: "The normative posture for all the faithful in the United States is standing."
"Faithful individuals who feel compelled to kneel to receive the Eucharist, as is their right, should prayerfully consider the communal blessing that is realised when we share a common posture."
Monsignor Martin refers to the norms of the US bishops' conference which "logically" do not envisage the use of kneelers or receiving communion.
The three main points of the letter are:
1. Clergy, catechists, ministers of Holy Communion …More

Why is that woman, standing in what should be the Sanctuary, wearing a fake bishop's mitre and a very short skirt? The Blessed Mother said fashions would be introduced which would be very offensive to God.

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 1,26-38.
In the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a town of Galilee called Nazareth,
to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph, of the house of David, and the virgin's name was Mary.
And coming to her, he said, "Hail, full of grace! The Lord is with you."
But she was greatly troubled at what was said and pondered what sort of greeting this might be.
Then the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.
Behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall name him Jesus.
He will be great and will be called Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give him the throne of David his father,
and he will rule over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end."
But Mary said to the angel, "How can this be, since I have no relations with a man?"
And the angel said to her in reply, "The Holy Spirit will come upon …

Bishop Athanasius Schneider told Diane Montagna that he wished the substance of his meeting with Pope Leo XIV on December 18 to remain confidential. The private audience lasted just over half an hour.
“I am deeply grateful to Pope Leo XIV for granting me a private audience, during which I was able to share several proposals aimed at the spiritual good of the Church. I was impressed by the Holy Father’s attentiveness and understanding. Let us pray for Pope Leo XIV, that he may strengthen the faith and promote justice and peace in the liturgical life of the Church.”

Book of Isaiah 7,10-14.
The LORD spoke to Ahaz, saying:
Ask for a sign from the LORD, your God; let it be deep as the nether world, or high as the sky!
But Ahaz answered, "I will not ask! I will not tempt the LORD!"
Then he said: Listen, O house of David! Is it not enough for you to weary men, must you also weary my God?
Therefore the Lord himself will give you this sign: the virgin shall be with child, and bear a son, and shall name him Emmanuel.
Psalms 24(23),1-2.3-4ab.5-6.
The LORD's are the earth and its fullness;
the world and those who dwell in it.
For he founded it upon the seas
and established it upon the rivers.
Who can ascend the mountain of the LORD?
or who may stand in his holy place?
One whose hands are sinless, whose heart is clean,
who desires not what is vain.
He shall receive a blessing from the LORD,
a reward from God his savior.
Such is the race that seeks for him,
that seeks the face of the God of Jacob.

Chemist Challenges Evolution: Life Works Only as a Fully Integrated System

James Tour, Chemistry Professor at Rice University, Houston, Texas, told Tucker Carlson on December 15 why the evolution theory is a “myth”. He points especially to the origin of life and evolutionary mechanisms at the molecular level. Main arguments.
No chemical mechanism for evolution
“I don’t understand the chemistry behind the evolutionary process. […] Tell me about the molecular interactions that are going to have to occur, the changes at the molecular level and how that happens.”
Origin of life is completely unknown
“We have no idea how life was created. We have no idea.”
All of life requires four molecular systems—and none arise prebiotically
“You have to have four classes of compounds. You have the lipids, which surround every one of our cell structures. You have the polysaccharides. You have the nucleotides which are RNA and DNA. And then you have the polypeptides which are proteins. Nobody has ever made those polymers, any classes, any of those, by a prebiotic route.” …More

No species needs to change into another. Each species functions according to its inherent nature.
A descendant of one species is another member of that same species. It cannot change.
God created each species directly. And finally, man from the dust of the earth. Directly. And woman from man's rib.
The Church has never accepted evolution. That is now due to the loss of faith by so many.

We aren't Protestant Fundamentalists who interpret all verses of Scripture literally [but to be fair they don't even apply this to all verses, example: John 6]. Jesus used hyperbole to make a point. Just like he doesn't want us to cut off our hands, or gouge out our eyes if we sin with them!

Protestant UCC 'pastor' explains that Jesus wasn't actually born of a virgin because: "The word 'virgin' in the first century had more to do with a woman who made decisions independent of a spouse. That's the way I like to think of it, that Jesus was born to an independent woman."

THE MAN WHO KILLED ST. MARIA GORETTI🇻🇦
This is Alessandro Serenelli, (the man who killed St Maria Goretti for not allow him to defile her in 1902) venerating the image of Maria Goretti.
Alessandro was sentenced to 30 years in prison. At his trial, he blamed Maria for her own death claiming that he was defending himself from a sexual attack that she herself instigated. In prison he was locked in isolation as his anger would lead to outbursts of physical violence against other inmates.
One night, six years into his prison sentence, Maria appeared to
Alessandro. She appeared in a garden picking 14 white lily flowers, handing them to him one by one. This gesture of forgiveness, this act of love, filled Alessandro with light and the Holy Spirit. He immediately became contrite for what he did to that little girl.
He finished the rest of his sentence in tranquility. In fact, his behavior became so docile, and the transformation of his person was so dramatic, that he was released three years …More

WATCH: Fr. Dave Nix Explains Why Bishops Are Silent On Leo

Joining me on this episode of The John Henry Westen Show is Father David Nix. We discussed Pope Leo’s downgrading of Our Lady’s titles of “Co-Redemptrix” and “Mediatrix of All Graces,” why bishops refuse to call out the new pontiff’s errors as they did with Pope Francis, and more.
We first discussed how radically the Church hierarchy has changed over the past 20 years and Pope Leo’s strange comments about how those who are in favor of the death penalty are “not pro-life.” We then delved into the recent Vatican
doctrinal note that discouraged the faithful from using Our Lady’s titles of “Co-Redemptrix” and “Mediatrix of All Graces.”
I noted that the Vatican’s justification of the title — that it is confusing to Protestants — doesn’t withstand scrutiny, since biblically-literate Protestants would recognize that all grace and truth comes through Our Lord Jesus Christ, and Jesus Christ came through Mary, and therefore her role as “Co-Redemptrix” and “Mediatrix of All Graces” …

“Grown under the mentorship of Cardinal Cupich”: At the first press conference, Archbishop Ronald Hicks of New York, said he comes from Chicago where he “was formed under the care of Cardinal Bernardin, the witness of Cardinal George, and the mentorship of Cardinal Cupich.” He added that he grew up 14 blocks from Pope Leo XIV. Furthermore, he switched to Spanish and said he loves the Latino culture. Finally, he said a lot of people are trying to "figure out" who he is and claimed: "I love Jesus, with my mind, heart and soul".

At his first press conference (look at the facial expressions from Dolan), the new Archbishop of New York, Ronald Hicks, said he grew up 14 blocks from Pope Leo and told Cardinal Pierre, when called about the appointment, that he wanted to “do the will of God” with “great humility” and an “open heart.”
He said he comes from Chicago, having served under Cardinal Bernardin, been a witness to Cardinal George, and mentored by Cardinal Cupich.
Offering his “first controversial statement,” Hicks said he is a Cubs fan and will remain one.
He pledged to learn the issues facing the archdiocese, including funds set aside to resolve sexual abuse claims, stressing that the Church must never stop working to prevent abuse, protect children, and care for survivors.
Switching to Spanish, he expressed his love for Latino culture.
Addressing those trying to “figure out” who he is, he said: “I love Jesus, with my mind, heart, and soul,” calling it his mission statement.

He'll always be a Cubs fan. He loves deep-dish pizza. And his first order of business will be massive compensation to a small army of survivors of clerical sex abuse. Isn’t that exciting?!

Albany’s retired bishop files for personal bankruptcy

National Catholic Register, Dec 19, 2025 / 12:24 pm
A retired New York bishop has filed for personal bankruptcy protection in federal court after a state jury verdict found him, along with other officials, personally liable for the collapse of a Catholic hospital pension fund that left about 1,100 retirees without the lifetime monthly payments they were expecting.
It’s not clear whether a Catholic bishop in the United States has ever previously filed for personal bankruptcy protection.
Bishop Edward Scharfenberger, 77, who served as bishop of Albany from April 2014 until his retirement in October, is seeking protection from creditors for his assets valued at between $100,001 and $500,000, according to a filing Tuesday in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of New York.
The seven-page filing does not list the bishop’s assets but states that he has between 100 and 199 creditors and debts totaling between $1,000,001 and $10 million.
Last week, a jury found Scharfenberger …

Shame on Canada for voting NO to removing SOGI from a UN resolution

Shame on Canada for voting NO to removing SOGI, sexual orientation and gender identity, from a UN General Assembly resolution. The recent vote was 81 to 77 in support of its removal. Of course the vote was taken under the deceptive language of rights of the disabled. How could anyone vote NO? Canada once again betrayed Canadians. Surely, this positive outcome was made possible by the hard work of small pro-life and pro-family groups.
The United States voted in favour of the resolution and this certainly had an influence on other countries. Sadly, not on Canada or Italy and even Hungary. See how your nation voted from the chart below.
We all know that abortion isn't a right.
We all know that euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide isn't a right.
We all know that self-identification of who we are without any reference to biology and mutilating one's body isn't a right.
We all know that gender identity and teach it to children isn't a right?
Here's the bottom line: Nobody has the right …
