Summa: On the Morality of Carnal Intercourse and Modern Natural Family Planning (NFP) Prima Pars: The Moral Nature of Carnal Intercourse Article 1: Whether all carnal intercourse after the Fall is intrinsically disordered? Objection 1: It would seem that carnal intercourse is not intrinsically disordered, because it occurs naturally and was created by God. Objection 2: It would seem that only intercourse outside marriage is disordered, since marriage is the natural and lawful context for the act. Sed Contra: Augustine writes, “Concupiscence, even in the baptized, renders the flesh liable to sin; carnal pleasure is not innocent but must be restrained” (De Nuptiis et Concupiscentia, I.20). Jerome affirms, “Excess in marriage approaches fornication” (Epist. 22.3). Respondeo: I answer that: All carnal intercourse after the Fall is intrinsically disordered because concupiscence wounds human nature (Rom 7:18; Augustine, De Nuptiis et Concupiscentia). The act tends to dominate the will …More

The Diocese of Charlotte, North Carolina, announced a change to its priestly formation programme in an email sent to priests on 15 December, according to the substack.com-account The Pillar. Beginning in the next academic year, diocesan seminarians will complete a one-year pastoral assignment teaching at a local Catholic secondary school. The teaching year will take place after philosophy studies and before theological studies. Purpose of the Programme Seminarians will receive pay, be assigned a lay mentor, and live in local rectories while paying room and board at diocesan rates. The diocese said the programme is intended to provide sustained pastoral and teaching experience, as well as exposure to the demands of full-time work and daily life. Priests Tired of Bishop Martin The article relies largely on anonymous sources. Some priests have raised concerns about the programme’s impact on priestly formation, the lack of formal classroom training, the additional year added to formation,…More
Seems he wants a relatively free labor pool that can be controlled. Now, some might be tempted to think having seminarians teaching youth is better than liberal laity, but make no mistake - the curriculum will be set! And it most probably won't be faithful to the Church's tradition. I know from experience. When is seminary in the 90s, students had to teach sex ed to Catholic schoolchildren, and NO it wasn't about Christian morality BUT "science" i.e. the mechanics of the sex act and birth control!!!! That was the "lesson plan" and if one balked one was removed and/or punished. Perhaps this is THE reason for the bishop in question to his change in priestly "formation" = WEED OUT THE DEVOUT & FAITHFUL candidates for ordination!!
When I was ordained, it was 8 years of seminary training. Then it became 9 and now it will be 10 years. The bishop is obviously not a diocesan priest, but a religious because he is wearing a religious habit.
Bishop Athanasius Schneider thanked Pope Leo XIV for a private audience, praising the pope’s attentiveness and understanding while keeping the meeting’s details confidential. Schneider said he shared proposals for the spiritual good of the Church and urged prayers for the pope to strengthen faith and promote justice and peace in the Church’s liturgical life. In earlier comments, Schneider said he would advise the pope to clarify key doctrinal issues, restore full freedom for the traditional Mass, and carefully appoint faithful bishops. The two share an Augustinian background and experience serving the poor, despite coming from very different parts of the world.

Writing on IlGiornale.it, Nico Spuntoni confirmed that Pope Leo XIV has sent his Christmas letter to the cardinals. He thanks them for their support and describes the January 7–8 extraordinary consistory as a moment of communion and shared responsibility. The letter identifies four topics for discussion at the consistory: - Renewed evangelisation in light of 'Evangelii Gaudium'. - The relationship between the universal Church and dioceses, as addressed in 'Praedicate Evangelium'. - The Synod and synodality as instruments of collaboration with the Roman Pontiff. - The liturgy: through in-depth theological, historical, and pastoral reflection "in order to retain sound tradition and yet remain open to legitimate progress.” This quotation comes from Sacrosanctum Concilium 23, which sets out general norms for the reform of the Mass. Spuntoni hopes: 'This passage appears to leave open the possibility of discussion among the cardinals regarding how to address the steadily growing communities …More
"Hence, studying more closely the ideas of the Modernists, evolution is described as resulting from the conflict of two forces, one of them tending towards progress, the other towards conservation. The conserving force in the Church is tradition, and tradition is represented by religious authority, and this both by right and in fact; for by right it is in the very nature of authority to protect tradition, and, in fact, for authority, raised as it is above the contingencies of life, feels hardly, or not at all, the spurs of progress. The progressive force, on the contrary, which responds to the inner needs lies in the individual consciences and ferments there - especially in such of them as are in most intimate contact with life. Note here, Venerable Brethren, the appearance already of that most pernicious doctrine which would make of the laity a factor of progress in the Church. Now it is by a species of compromise between the forces of conservation and of progress, that is to say between …More

"This is what the priests are doing to me in this time. They offer me incense, that is, they speak and preach beautiful words in order to win praise for themselves and some temporal benefit, but not out of love of me. Just as the scent of the incense cannot be captured but only felt and seen, so their words do not attain any benefit for souls so that it can take root and be kept in their hearts, but they are only heard and seem to please for a short time. They offer me prayers, but not the kind that are pleasing to me. Like those who shouts praise with their mouths and are silent in their hearts, they stand next to me shouting with their mouths while in their hearts and thoughts they wander around in the world. But if they were speaking with a mighty or powerful man, then their hearts would follow their own speech and words so that no one would be able to remark on them."
[Saint Bridget of Sweden/ Heliga Birgitta; XIV Century AD: aged 69-70; Uppland, Sweden/Rome, Papal States; Widow, Mystic; Spiritual Writer; Founder; Patroness of Europe] Chapter 48 ~ About how, in the presence of the heavenly host and of the bride, the Divinity spoke to the Manhood against the Christians, just as God spoke to Moses against the people of Israel, and about how damned priests love the world and despise Christ, and about their condemnation and damnation. A great host was seen in Heaven and God said to it: “My friends, who know and understand and see all things in me, I am speaking in your presence, for the sake of my bride standing here, like someone who speaks to himself, for in this way does my Divinity converse with my Humanity. Moses was with God on the mountain forty days and nights, and when the people saw that he had been gone so long, they took gold and threw it into the fire and shaped a calf out of it, calling it their god. Then God said to Moses: ‘The people have …More

Leo XIV’s appointments reveal a notably higher concentration of immigrants among bishops. In military and imperial practice, foreign or non-local commanders were sometimes appointed because their lack of local social ties made them stricter enforcers of the rules. Their outsider status could also serve as a deliberate humiliation, signalling local subjugation. Below, there is a list of Leo XIV's appointments in the USA and the bishops' places of birth: 1. Mons. Michael Pham was appointed on May 22, 2025, as Bishop of San Diego, California. He was born in Da Nang, Vietnam. 2. Mons. Pedro Bismarck Chau was appointed on May 30, 2025, as Auxiliary Bishop of Newark, New Jersey. He was born in Managua, Nicaragua. 3. Mons. Mark A. Eckman was appointed on June 4, 2025, as Bishop of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. 4. Mons. Simon Peter Engurait was appointed on June 5, 2025, as Bishop of Houma–Thibodaux, Louisiana. He was born in Ngora, Uganda. 5. Mons. …More
The irony of the first "American pope" aiding the forces who are trying to undermine our nation. It's real that the Cardinals [under Francis' directive] selected a man who's mission is to check U.S. sovereignty.
