Shocking decision in Argentina to parole sexual abuse Bishop protected by Francis
Shocking decision in Argentina to parole sexual abuse Bishop protected by Francis
The Fourth Chamber of the Court of Appeal ordered the immediate parole of Gustavo Oscar Zanchetta, the former bishop of Orán, sentenced in 2022 to four years and six months in prison for aggravated sexual abuse against two former seminarians. This decision not only sparks controversy but also reopens the wounds of those who trusted that justice, at least this time, would be capable of protecting the victims over and above ecclesiastical privileges.
Zanchetta never knew what it meant to be behind bars. From the beginning, he was granted house arrest in a convent, then the unusual authorization to travel to Italy under the pretext of medical treatment, and now, parole that returns him to the streets under merely decorative rules of conduct. A judicial course that makes it clear that his cassock weighed far more than the voices of the victims.
The case was a watershed: for the first time, a sitting Argentine …
Any Bishop or priest that abuses an Innocent seminarian should be removed from the Priesthood! Pure Priests nd Seminarians need to be protected from SSA Wolves inside the Priesthood. This is a Scandal!

Rainbow flag at the Bundestag? Julia Klöckner counters Bätzing's criticism
Bishop Georg Bätzing had said he would have liked to see the rainbow flag at the Bundestag. The President of the Bundestag poses a counter-question.
President of the Bundestag Julia Klöckner (CDU) rejects Bishop Georg Bätzing's criticism of the handling of the rainbow flag in the Bundestag. "The bishop's regret is astonishingly selective. Did the Vatican or did all bishoprics raise a rainbow flag on Pride Day?" she asks in the weekly newspaper "Die Zeit."
Bätzing, the chairman of the German Bishops' Conference, had lamented that the rainbow flag did not fly at the Bundestag on Christopher Street Day (Pride Day). Klöckner countered that the flag had already been displayed on May 17, the International Day Against Homophobia – in accordance with a decree by the Federal Ministry of the Interior, which states that it may only be displayed once …

Liturgical abuse in the Pope's Diocese: The Blessed Sacrament exposed on a Palestinian scarf and among rainbow flags
Liturgical abuse in the Pope's Diocese: The Blessed Sacrament exposed on a Palestinian scarf and among rainbow flags
In Rome, the Pope's diocese, a serious incident of liturgical abuse occurred during an event organized by the Vicariate of Rome at the Church of San Giuseppe dei Falegnami in the Roman Forum.
The event, billed as a "continuous prayer for peace in Gaza and the Holy Land," began on September 22 and concludes today, September 25. Images released show that during the exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, the monstrance was placed on a Palestinian scarf and surrounded by objects unrelated to Catholic worship.
Next to the altar were rainbow flags—presented as symbols of "peace," but also associated with LGBT activism—banners for political demands, and other objects of a profane nature.
On the ambo, the seat was even covered with a multicolored cloth, while maps, posters, and materials that have nothing to do with Eucharistic adoration appeared on the floor.

Father Mertes is a Jesuit, high school teacher, and author. At the Jesuit Canisius College in Berlin, he played a key role in uncovering sexual violence against students in early 2010, the first case of the Catholic Church's abuse scandal. Today, he is Superior of the Jesuit community in Berlin-Charlottenburg and a member of the editorial board of the cultural magazine "Stimmen der Zeit."

Franciscans deserting the Shrine of the Fourteen Holy Helpers. Utter catastrophe.
Franciscans deserting the Shrine of the Fourteen Holy Helpers. Utter catastrophe.
The Franciscans have been looking after the Upper Franconian pilgrimage site of Vierzehnheiligen for around 200 years. Now their presence there is in jeopardy. The archdiocese and the order are working together to find solutions.
The presence of the Franciscan Order at the pilgrimage site of Vierzehnheiligen in Bad Staffelstein is uncertain. As the Archdiocese of Bamberg announced (Tuesday), the provincial leadership wants to decide at the beginning of 2026 whether and how the order can continue to be present after around 200 years. However, a continuation beyond 2028 is currently rather unrealistic. Nevertheless, the archdiocese and the order want to continue to ensure local pastoral care.
Due to recruitment problems, the Franciscans will no longer be able to provide care on their own in future, the statement continued. The Archdiocese and the leadership of the order had therefore held "intensive talks" …

Young Carlo Acutis and Eucharistic Rudeness
by Andrea Grillo
How is it possible that a young blessed can communicate such an outdated, burdensome, obsessive Eucharistic theology, so focused on the inessential and so neglectful of the crucial things? How is it possible that the entire journey the Church has made over the past 70 years, in terms of understanding the ecclesial value of the Eucharist and its celebration, has been communicated so distortedly to this ardent young communicator, suggesting such a flawed, defective, and one-sided understanding? Who indulged his interest in "miracles," neglecting the true miracle?
I wondered what the reasons for this minor scandal lie. To learn more, I searched the official website of the Carlo Acutis Association, located at https …
Grillo needs to repent. He isn’t getting any younger or wiser.

No wonder that Pope Francis escaped legal scrutiny for abuse cover-up. Argentinian Judiciary and Francis were in a Peronist mutual admiration society.

Judge Roberto Gallardo, head of the court, and former Supreme Court member Raúl Zaffaroni led the meeting in Santiago del Estero, which recalled the late Pope's message on the role of justice in society. Criticisms of libertarian administration and economic adjustment were raised.

With a clear call for judges to assume their role as political actors, with an urgent responsibility in the face of social injustice, authoritarianism, and the suffering of the most vulnerable, the national meeting in homage to Pope Francis, organized by the Argentine Chapter of the Pan-American Committee of Judges for Social Rights and Franciscan Doctrine (COPAJU), began this Thursday in the city of Santiago del Estero.

The nuns' return to Goldenstein on Thursday was highly unorthodox.
The three elderly nuns of Goldenstein are back in their monastery outside the city gates of Salzburg – albeit in a highly unorthodox manner.
Sister Rita couldn't and didn't want to hold back her tears – tears of joy, mind you! "Now we're back and hopefully we won't have to leave again," said the nun. Together with her fellow sisters Bernadette and Regina, she returned home to Goldenstein Monastery on Thursday – against the wishes of their spiritual superiors and in a somewhat legally dubious manner.
As a reminder: At the behest of the Vatican, the three nuns bequeathed the Elsbethen Monastery in 2022, half of which each goes to the Archdiocese of Salzburg and half to Reichersberg Abbey. According to the transfer agreement, the nuns assumed they would be allowed to spend their final years in Goldenstein, the place where …
Und es ist unverantwortlich, die Schwestern haben in dem Kloster weder Wasser noch Strom . Man hat es verabsäumt mit den Schwestern eine Lösung zu suchen, man hat über sie verfügt, was heute überall im sozialen Bereich undenkbar wäre
Great news — courageous elderly women! It is noted that too few people are aware of how severe Pope Francis’ decrees against religious life are. The Motu proprio Cor Orans is described as among the most terrible and even diabolical, especially with regard to confederations. The Archdiocese of Salzburg is said to be concerned only with money and fundamentally wrong in its orientation.

Raymond was born at Portella, Catalonia, Spain. He was delivered by caesarean operation when his mother died in childbirth. Hence his name non natus (not born). He joined the Mercedarians under St. Peter Nolasco at Barcelona. He succeeded Peter as chief ransomer and went to Algeria to ransom slaves. He remained as hostage for several slaves when his money ran out and was sentenced to be impaled when the governor learned that he had converted several Mohammedans. He escaped the death sentence because of the ransom he would bring, but was forced to run the gauntlet. He was then tortured for continuing his evangelizing activities but was ransomed eight months later by Peter Nolasco. On his return to Barcelona in 1239, he was appointed Cardinal by Pope Gregory IX, but died at Cardona a short distance from Barcelona the next year while on the way to Rome. He was canonized in 1657. He is the patron saint of expectant mothers and midwives because of the nature …
Thank you, Telling storing about his caesarean birth, suggesting that natural childbirth has a spiritual connotation.
