Cardinal Tucho Fernández clarified his November 4 clarification Mater Populi Fidelis on the Marian title Co-Redemptrix. He was asked about it by DianeMontagna.Substack.com after Tuesday’s press conference. Regarding his formulation that “it is always inappropriate” to use the title Co-Redemptrix, Tucho claimed now that it is "not meant to judge the past". However, "from now on" it will not be used "either in the liturgy, that is, in liturgical texts, or in the official documents of the Holy See", he believes. "If you, together with your group of friends, believe you understand well the true meaning of this expression, have read the document, and see that its positive aspects are also affirmed there, and you wish to express precisely that within your prayer group or among friends, you may use the title—but it will not be used officially, that is, either in liturgical texts or in official documents." Tucho’s problem is "not its underlying doctrine", but the term itself that risks "…More

"But someone may prefer to regard the Divine Orders as pure and ineffable in their own natures, and beyond our power of vision, and may consider that the imagery of the Celestial Intelligences in the Scriptures does not really represent them, and is like a crude dramatization of the celestial names: and he may say that the theologians, in depicting wholly incorporeal natures under bodily forms should, as far as possible, make use of fitting and related images, and represent them by the most exalted, incorporeal and spiritual substances amongst ourselves, and should not endue the Celestial and Godlike Principles with a multitude of low and earthly forms."
[Dionysius the Areopagite – I Century AD; Hieromartyr and Bishop of Athens; Converted by St. Paul] “Chapter II That Divine and Celestial matters are fittingly revealed even through unlike symbols. I consider, then, that in the first place we must explain our conception of the purpose of each Hierarchy and the good conferred by each upon its followers; secondly we must celebrate the Celestial Hierarchies as they are revealed in the Scriptures; and finally we must say under what holy figures the descriptions in the sacred writings portray those Celestial Orders, and to what kind of purity we ought to be guided through those forms lest we, like the many, should impiously suppose that those Celestial and Divine Intelligences are many-footed or many-faced beings, or formed with the brutishness of oxen, or the savageness of lions, or the curved beaks of eagles, or the feathers of birds, or should imagine that they are some kind of fiery wheels above the heavens, or material thrones upon which …More
First non-European bishop appointed in Germany. With the appointment of Joshy George Pottackal, O.Carm., the German Catholic Church marks a quiet but historic turning point. Born in Kerala, India, and today a German citizen, Pottackal has spent most of his priestly life serving communities in the Diocese of Mainz — from youth ministry to parish leadership and seminary formation. His selection as auxiliary bishop signals something more than a personal milestone: it reflects a Church that increasingly mirrors the global reality of its faithful. Pottackal’s pastoral style is known to be grounded, people-focused, and refreshingly unpretentious. His path — India to Germany, student to pastor, citizen to bishop — embodies the kind of rooted openness that Germany’s Catholic landscape has long needed but rarely seen in leadership.

So, for 15 years this guy was a regular at a men's club, where the woman worked and no one at the Parish noticed anything? And, the bishop gave him a promotion!

On Thursday, the Spanish Civil Guard arrested Laura García de Viedma, abbess of the Sedevacantist Poor Clares at the Belorado monastery. The investigation concerns the alleged sale of artworks and heritage items belonging to the convent. According to Spanish media reports, officers entered the monastery early in the day despite attempts by members of the community to block access. Items from the monastery have reportedly surfaced on the antiques market. Some of the convent's gold, totalling 1.73 kg, was reportedly sold for around €130,000. In recent months, the courts have ordered the nuns to leave Belorado and rejected their attempt to register as a civil association owning the monastery. Most of the group now reside in a monastery in Orduña, having moved several elderly sisters there ahead of the eviction process in Belorado. #newsWeubvnpjjk
“Belshazzar’s Feast – The Writing on the Wall” A depiction of the fateful night in Babylon, where King Belshazzar, drunk with pride, defiles the sacred vessels of the Temple of Jerusalem. Amid golden lamps, jewels, music, and rivers of wine, men and women raise holy goblets in blasphemous praise to idols of gold, silver, bronze, iron, wood, and stone. The air is thick with arrogance, yet unseen, heaven prepares judgment—the hand of God is about to write on the wall Belshazzar's feast, or the story of the writing on the wall, chapter 5 in the Book of Daniel, tells how Neo-Babylonian royal but corrupt Belshazzar holds a great feast and drinks from the vessels that had been looted in the destruction of the First Temple. A hand appears and writes on the wall. The terrified Belshazzar calls for his wise men, but they cannot read the writing. The queen advises him to send for Daniel, renowned for his wisdom. Daniel reminds Belshazzar that his father, Nebuchadnezzar, when he became …More
