9% of Practicing French Catholics Want Roman Rite

A report by La-Croix.com on December 14 describes the rise in France of young Catholics who attend both the Novus Ordo and the Mass in the Roman rite.
The article cites a Bayard–La Croix survey conducted by Ifop:
• 9% of regular Mass-goers say the Latin Mass is their preferred form;
• 25% appreciate it as much as Eucharist in French;
• 67% of weekly Mass-goers say they have no objection to the Tridentine rite.
La Croix identifies a generation of “bi-ritual” Catholics, mostly under 35 and living in large cities. They reject labels and do not see themselves as part of a “parallel Church,” a term used by Pope Francis in 2021 when restricting the Roman rite.
At Saint-Georges parish in Lyon, many young adults and families attend the Latin Mass.
Grégoire, 31, says he began going five years ago with his wife, who was already attached to the traditional liturgy. He recalls having “preconceived ideas about this world of traditional Catholics,” but now alternates easily between rites. “…More

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

No es apostólica esa "bendición" porque Prevost no es Papa. El fue instalado por un común acuerdo con Bergoglio y Parolín para concluir la obra destructora de Bergoglio. Los frutos están a la vista de todos.

Dozens of Catholic Churches Closed in Germany in 2024 and 2025

According to the German bishops' conference, at least 66 Catholic churches and chapels were closed and desecrated in Germany in 2024.
By 1 December, at least 46 churches or chapels had been profaned in 2025.
The bishops' conference notes that not all profanations are published in diocesan official bulletins, meaning the actual number of churches taken out of use could be higher.

This is NOT a sign of a growing Church; it is proof that the Church is dying.

The German cardinals and bishops, sons of Luther, have done it all on their own; they haven't even needed the help of the antipopes Bergoglio and Prevost.

WITH VATICAN COUNCIL II ‘BLUE’ THE MINIM FATHERS IN ROME ARE ALIGNED WITH ALPHONSE RATISBONNE AND TERESA DI LISEUX : THE COUNCIL IS MISSIONARY

22.12.2025
WITH VATICAN COUNCIL II ‘BLUE’ THE MINIM FATHERS IN ROME ARE ALIGNED WITH ALPHONSE RATISBONNE AND TERESA DI LISEUX : THE COUNCIL IS MISSIONARY
With ‘the blue orthodox passages in Vatican Council II , the Council is saying Hinduism, Buddhism and Islamism are not paths to salvation and their members need ‘faith and baptism’(AG 7) for salvation from Hell. Meanwhile there are no explicit exceptions for AG 7, LG 8,14, 16 etc.
Since ‘the red passages’ i.e. being saved in invincible ignorance and the baptism of desire, refer to hypothetical cases in 1965-2025.
So the Minim Fathers of St. Francis of Paula, at the basilica of Sant Andrea delle Fratte, Rome, will be confirming that Islamism, Shintoism etc are not paths to salvation. They are aligned with Alphonse Ratisbonne, a missionary, St. Teresa of Liseuex, patron of the missions and St. Maximillian Kolbe, the editor of a missionary Polish magazine. All three have been to this basilica in central Rome.
Vatican Council II is …More

Excerpts follow here-
THE HUMILITY OF CHRIST
Christ accepted, with Divine humility, the conditions upon which He was birthed into the world — a very primitive cold and barren stable. His life with us continued on a sorrowful and suffering journey. He lived the Sorrowful Mysteries of the Holy Rosary – the anguish caused by sinful mankind, the scourgings, the mockings, the carrying of our crosses on top of His Cross of Crucifixion – His ultimate gift of love – so that we may be saved.
Mary and Joseph suffered along with Him. Shortly after Christ’s birth, as they journeyed, it was bitter cold with blistering gales of wind. Our Blessed Mother, having grave concern for the safety of the Christ Child, prayed to God, not that He mitigate the storm, but that He cease the bitter cold winds against Jesus alone and allow the force of the storm to continue against She and Joseph. And so, God did …More

I like the excerpts of Father Kramer. It should begin to appear obvious the Kirk fiasco is a PSYOP. All the storys being leaked or published before it happened? Just more occult mockery for the moon-blinked masses!

Saint-Bernard Church in Lyon to Reopen as Climbing Centre in 2029:
Saint-Bernard Church, in Lyon’s Croix-Rousse district (1st arrondissement), will reopen to the public as a large indoor climbing centre by 2029. Built in 1866, the church was desacralised in 1999 and has been fully closed since 2004. For many years, the building was at risk of demolition or being turned into office space, despite interest from the Priestly Fraternity of St Pius X. It will now be restored through a project led by the City of Lyon and the company Carré d’Or. Work is expected to start in 2026, with an investment of nearly €5 million. The historic structure will be preserved.

Pope "of Universal Fraternity" Warns of "Rigidity" in Faith, Liturgy, Morals

In his Christmas address to the Roman Curia today, Pope Leo XIV praised his "beloved predecessor, Pope Francis": "His prophetic voice, his pastoral style and his rich magisterium have marked the Church's journey in recent years."
Francis encouraged "us" [pluralis majestatis] "to place God’s mercy at the centre, give renewed emphasis to evangelisation and be a joyful church that welcomes all and is attentive to the poorest".
Furthermore, Leo XIV warned that in the Church there are "forces of division may be at play": "We can fall into the temptation of swinging between two opposite extremes: uniformity that fails to value differences or, on the other hand, the exacerbation of different viewpoints instead of seeking communion."
Leo XIV wants to "build the communion of Christ in a synodal Church".
And: “When dealing with faith, liturgy, morality, or other matters, one risks falling victim to rigidity or ideology.”
He does not see his role as a gardener "who tends to his own plot", but as …More

Did he also warn against the lukewarm? Or at least against lukewarmness?

The origins of A Christmas Carol.
A Christmas Carol. In Prose. Being a Ghost Story of Christmas, commonly known as A Christmas Carol, is a novella by Charles Dickens, first published in London by Chapman & Hall in 1843 and illustrated by John Leech. It recounts the story of Ebenezer Scrooge, an elderly miser who is visited by the ghost of his former business partner Jacob Marley and the spirits of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come. In the process, Scrooge is transformed into a kinder, gentler man.
Dickens wrote A Christmas Carol during a period when the British were exploring and re-evaluating past Christmas traditions, including carols, and newer customs such as cards and Christmas trees. He was influenced by the experiences of his own youth and by the Christmas stories of other authors, including Washington Irving and Douglas Jerrold. Dickens had written three Christmas stories prior to the novella, and was inspired following a visit to the Field Lane Ragged …More

FR. CHAD RIPPERGER, JESSE ROMERO AND TERRY BARBER WOULD BE INTERPRETING VATICAN COUNCIL II, THE BAPTISM OF DESIRE AND THE CREEDS IRRATIONALLY

FR.CHAD RIPPERGER, JESSE ROMERO AND TERRY BARBER AFFIRM THE DOGMA EENS WHICH IS IN HARMONY WITH VATICAN COUNCIL II AND THE CATECHISM OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH - BUT WITH CONFUSION
However 15 hypothetical cases which he has mentioned could be confused as practical exceptions for the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus.

It could also mean that he is interpreting Vatican Coiuncil II irrationally by confusing hypothetical cases of LG 14, 16 etc are being visible exceptions for the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus.
This would indicate that he interprets the baptism of desire irrationally too. So his interpretation of the Creeds too would be with the irrational interpretation of the baptism of desire. This is the common mistake in the Church.
Outside the Catholic Church there is no salvation is a formally defined doctrine of the Church. Unless you are a formally baptized Catholic in the Church you cannot be saved. The ordinary means of salvation is the Catholic Church said Fr. Chad Ripperger on …More

"The new feudalism"
"It looks like the Mafia, it smells like the Mafia, it is the Mafia" – Lecture on the book by political scientist and publicist Hermann Ploppa (With video)
December 15, 2025 by WS. Reading time: 1 minute.

In his book "The New Feudalism," political scientist Hermann Ploppa describes the puppet masters behind the rampant expropriation and disempowerment of the people, and where they intend to lead us. His lecture begins with warnings from the middle class and the question of whether we are sliding into a new form of lawlessness.
Ploppa traces the line from historical feudalism to today's power structures and talks about privatization, BlackRock, platform capitalism, corruption and the role of media and think tanks such as the Atlas Network.
Further topics of the lecture include party politics as a vehicle for lobbying interests, the pressure on small and medium-sized enterprises, and the question of how citizens can regain more sovereignty and defend themselves against …More

Half of Leo XIV’s US Bishops Are Foreign-Born - From Uganda, Vietnam, the Philippines, Nicaragua

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.

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.

Malachi 3:1-4, 23-24
“Now I am sending my messenger—he will prepare the way before me; And the lord whom you seek will come suddenly to his temple.”
Malachi listens to his heart and he is convinced that the Lord, God with us, will come to his temple, the temple of his body.
Luke 1:57-66
“Zechariah, filled with the holy Spirit, prophesied.”
Zechariah is also someone who listens with his heart. He blesses God, and this confirms the presence of the Holy Spirit within him, who praises the Lord.
