Atila Sinke Guimarães: The Symbol of the Crown in the Reign of Mary
The Kingdom of Our Lord Jesus Christ over the earth, both in the spiritual and temporal orders, was installed when all the nations of the West recognized Him as King and Lord. This took place in the Middle Ages with the founding of Christendom. The forces of evil – the demon and his followers – strove to destroy this splendid order of things.
The crown, a magnificent symbol of authority
It is this effort of the evil that we call the Revolution. The first stages of the Revolution are marked by Humanism and the Renaissance, then by the Protestant Pseudo-Reform, the French Revolution, the Communist Revolution and more recently, by the revolution in customs which have as point of reference the student revolt in the Sorbonne in May of 1968. After these various assaults against Christendom, little remained of the old order of medieval things.
Here, however, we are dealing with restoration. To restore in this context means to carry out the Counter-Revolution. And the Counter-Revolution can be …More
Prof. Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira:
Counter-Revolution from the Fatima Perspective – Part I-II.
When the institution of the family is sick and failing, the whole of society is also necessarily ailing and wavering. And when the whole of society is unsound, it is useless to try to make a social reform on that diseased organism - be it democratic or any other type.
One could say that the quality of work performed by a man reflects his health or sickness and indicates the ailment he is suffering from. When society, which is composed of men, reaches such a point of moral disease that the family to a large degree is undermined, then you can do whatever you want to cure the evils of this society - reforms, laws, legal measures, campaigns against drugs and abortion, etc. - but it will not be cured until you cure the individuals of their moral leprosy. What is needed is a moral rejuvenation of each organ of the social body. Without this there is no solution to the problem as a whole.

Arcivescovo Carlo Maria Viganò: NON C’È PARADISO PER I CODARDI!
La Vittoria della Lega Santa a Lepanto
Intervento al Convegno dell’Associazione culturale “Veneto Russia”
Settimo di Pescantina (VR) - 11 Ottobre 2025
Salve, Regina, rosa de spina,
rosa d’amor, Madre del Signor.
Fa’ che mi no mora e che no mora pecador,
che no peca mortalmente e che no mora malamente.
Preghiera del marinaio, recitata da tutta la flotta veneziana
prima di muovere battaglia nelle acque di Patrasso.
Cari Amici,
consentitemi di ringraziare gli organizzatori di questo evento e di porgere il mio saluto a tutti i partecipanti. È per me un piacere potermi unire a voi nel celebrare l’anniversario della Vittoria di Lepanto, prendendo parte alla nona edizione del Convegno che quest’anno ha come tema il paradosso di un’Europa laicista, liberale e massonica che muove guerra alla Russia cristiana e antiglobalista. Viviamo ormai negli ultimi tempi, in cui lo scontro tra Cristo e Anticristo impone a tutti noi di schierarci sotto le insegne del nostro Re divino e della Sua augustissima …More

Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò: THERE IS NO PARADISE FOR COWARDS!
The Victory of the Holy League at Lepanto
Speech at the Conference of the Cultural Association ``Veneto Russia``
Settimo di Pescantina (VR) - October 11, 2025
Hail, O Queen, Rose among thorns,
Rose of love, Mother of the Lord.
Grant that I may not die, nor that I may die a sinner,
that I may not sin mortally, nor that I may die badly.
Sailor’s Prayer, recited by the entire Venetian fleet
before going to battle in the waters of Patras.
Dear Friends,
Allow me to thank the organizers of this event and extend my greetings to all participants. It is a pleasure for me to join you in celebrating the anniversary of the Victory of Lepanto by taking part in the ninth edition of this Conference, which this year has as its theme the paradox of a secularist, liberal, and Masonic Europe waging war on Christian, anti-globalist Russia. We now live in the end times, in which the clash between Christ and Antichrist requires all of us to rally behind the banners of our Divine King and His Most August …More
The Filioque: A Church-Dividing Issue?
An Agreed Statement of the
North American Orthodox-Catholic Theological Consultation
Saint Paul’s College, Washington, DC
October 25, 2003
From 1999 until 2003, the North American Orthodox-Catholic Consultation has focused its discussions on an issue that has been identified, for more than twelve centuries, as one of the root causes of division between our Churches: our divergent ways of conceiving and speaking about the origin of the Holy Spirit within the inner life of the triune God. Although both of our traditions profess “the faith of Nicaea” as the normative expression of our understanding of God and God’s involvement in his creation, and take as the classical statement of that faith the revised version of the Nicene creed associated with the First Council of Constantinople of 381, most Catholics and other Western Christians have used, since at least the late sixth century, a Latin version of that Creed, which adds to its confession that …More
Orthodoxy, Catholicism Without the Pope?
– How the orthodoxresource.co.uk presented it –
You might be excused for thinking that this suggested title is fairly accurate, but it is not. There are many similarities and indeed a common inheritance between Roman Catholicism and Orthodoxy but in other matters these two churches are radically different.* You may recall that in the unit on Church History we considered a simplified diagram of what happened at the Great Schism in 1054 AD from an Orthodox point of view. Simply speaking, in our view, Rome broke with Orthodoxy and continued along a long path of divergence from our common Tradition, a process which arguably had started some time before. The causes of the Schism, grievous in Christian history, were many and complex and we cannot deal with these in this short essay. We are more concerned here with comparing Orthodoxy and Roman Catholicism today. For this reason, we shall also not consider the history of relations between the two …More
Pope & Patriarchs: The 1848 Letters of Pope
Pius IX and the Orthodox Patriarchs
Shortly after his ascension to the papal throne in 1846, Pope Pius IX wrote the Apostolic Letter In suprema Petri apostoli sede, "On the Supreme Throne of Peter the Apostle" (6 January 1848). While it was primarily intended for Eastern Catholics of the various Oriental Rites it also
addressed Orthodox Christians, calling them back to unity with Rome.
Fr. Aidan Nichols characterizes Pius IX‘s letter as "the first 'unionist‘ encyclical of the modern papacy‖ and as the first part of "a papal concern for the Christian East of a depth and urgency not seen since Florence." "Thousands upon thousands" of this letter were distributed in a Greek translation directly to the Orthodox faithful. (Rome and the Eastern Churches, p. 352).
Despite its historical importance as one of the first texts of the modern era relative to Catholic – Orthodox relations, English translations of Pius IX‘s letter have been few and, until …More
Pope Leo XIII: Orientalium Dignitas On the Churches of the East - 1894
The Churches of the East are worthy of the glory and reverence that they hold throughout the whole of Christendom in virtue of those extremely ancient, singular memorials that they have bequeathed to us. For it was in that part of the world that the first actions for the redemption of the human race began, in accord with the all-kind plan of God. They swiftly gave forth their yield: there flowered in first blush the glories of preaching the True Faith to the nations, of martyrdom, and of holiness. They gave us the first joys of the fruits of salvation. From them has come a wondrously grand and powerful flood of benefits upon the other peoples of the world, no matter how far-flung. When blessed Peter, the Prince of the Apostles, intended to cast down the manifold wickedness of error and vice, in accord with the will of Heaven, he brought the light of divine Truth, the Gospel of peace, freedom in Christ to the metropolis of the Gentiles.
It has most especially been the habit of the Roman …More
Knowing When to Swallow: Cleverly skips line that omits ‘Filioque’…
Leo XIV Omits Controversial Line in Common Recitation of ‘Ecumenical’ Creed
On Sunday, Sep. 14, 2025, Robert F. Prevost (‘Pope Leo XIV’) presided over an ecumenical liturgical celebration officially entitled “Commemoration of the Martyrs and Witnesses of the Faith of the 21st century”.
Leo was joined by representatives of various heretical and schismatic sects, and ‘Cardinal’ Kurt Koch, the head of the Vatican’s so-called Dicastery for Promoting Christian Unity, also happily participated. “The prayer service [of] Sept. 14, the feast of the Exaltation of the Cross, commemorated 1,624 Catholics, Orthodox, Anglicans and Protestants who died for their faith between 2000 and 2025”, reports Catholic News Service.
The very idea of celebrating “witnesses of the Faith” together with heretics — even including deceased heretics themselves as witnesses of the Faith — is an inherent contradiction, one that would have elicited hearty laughter before the Second Vatican Council (1962-65) and …More
David Mitchell: The Decline and Fall of Catholic Moral Theology
The Catholic Church has a moral teaching. Everybody knows this, and it is on account of her moral teaching that people who do not wish to believe that the Catholic Church is the true religion, and who do not wish to believe that they have a duty to belong to her, are driven to invent the most extraordinary arguments in the moral order so they can writhe out of their obligations. They will say black is white, white is black, up is down, and down is up before they admit that they themselves are sinners in need of repentance.
Unfortunately, this is also just what many modern, nominally Catholic moralists have done.
The Second Vatican Council in one of its documents[1] calls for a renewal of moral theology. It seems unlikely that professional moral theologians are unable to read, but most of them seem to have read this as calling for “a new moral theology.” While Googling the subject the other day, I discovered that there is a book by one James F. Keenan called A History of Catholic Moral …More
S.D. Wright: Divine faith does not admit 'falsification events' for the Church
Today, so few people have faith. They have Christian opinions, or they consider the Church to be the best vehicle for their prior ideas and prejudices. Such persons are in a precarious position.
It has become common to hear contemporary Catholic writers talking about the current crisis in the Church as if what is at stake is the falsifiability of the Catholic religion.
This betrays a very flawed understanding of Catholic fundamental theology and the nature of divine faith.
In a similar way, some of these people also speak as if the process by which we conclude which is the true Church of Christ is like seeing who has won a tight race. In such an analogy, the Roman Church has won; with the runners up being Byzantine Orthodox, Oriental Orthodoxy, Anglicanism, etc.
Along with this way of speaking comes the implicit (and sometimes explicit) idea that if the winner were to be disqualified (e.g., on grounds of having cheated), then the first runner-up would become the new winner by default. …More
S.D. Wright: Easter, Resurrection, Faith – and recognising the Church
Many failed to recognise our Lord in his Resurrection. Those who insist that the Conciliar/Synodal Church is the Roman Catholic fall into the same trap.
Preface: Conclave 2025
In the wake of Francis’ death, the Catholic world is ablaze with frenetic speculation about the coming conclave and its likely candidates.
Many souls have allowed themselves to be unsettled by the dire state of the college of cardinals, and the question of who they will elect – as if the Church’s fate hung on the ambitions of men.
In their loss of peace, we could ask such persons: Why do you seek to living among the dead?
Yet this agitation – itself contrary to the peace bestowed by Christ on Easter Sunday evening – betrays a deeper problem. Many have misunderstood the true nature of Church’s visibility, her perpetuity, and her divine constitution, and cast the Church in purely naturalistic terms. They have, in effect, adopted the same all-too-natural approach shared by Our Lord’s friends in the time before …More
What must we believe to be saved? from McHugh and Callan’s Moral Theology, 1958
“Without faith it is impossible to please God.”
I recently shared the Simple Summary of the Catholic Faith written to help my recently deceased Grandmother when she was being received into the Church.
I hope that that document will be useful to others. As I stated, it was intended as a rudimentary summary of the Catholic religion to help prepare the ground for a very elderly person being received into the Church. It was not intended as a defence of the Church’s claims, or a detailed explanation of the points.
But this topic gives rise to some interesting questions. We all know that faith is not sufficient to be saved, and that we must die in a state of grace. That said:
How much are Catholic laymen required to know of the Faith, in general?
How much are Catholic laymen required to know, in order to receive the sacraments?
How much is someone required to know, in order to be received into the Church?
What truths are really essential to be believed, in order to attain salvation?
In order …More
S.D. Wright: How can we explain the Catholic faith simply?
A summary for helping elderly converts understand what must be believed
On 24 August 2022, my grandmother finished her time on earth.
In 2020, in her mid-nineties, she was received into the Roman Catholic Church.
Given her age and other factors, a typical period of instruction was not possible.
It was my responsibility to help her understand certain things, but even simple catechisms felt too complicated in this situation. As I was unable to find anything that I thought was suitable, I wrote a simple summary of the Catholic Faith for her.
It was not a substitute for a priest’s instruction. It was just a brief summary of preliminary, basic points. As a related matter, see this article which considers which dogmas which must be believed explicitly, and with supernatural faith, in order for a person to be saved.
This is an edited version of that summary. I hope that it may prove of some use to readers in similar situations, as I …More

Dogmatikai különbségek a katolikus és a(z ortodox) görög-keleti vallás (helyesebben hit – megj. BDA) között
A katolikus-honlap fórumán (2010. – megj. BDA) július hónapban egy akkor megjelent újsághír kapcsán Füzesi Zsolt összefoglalta a katolikus és a(z ortodox – megj. BDA) görög-keleti vallás (helyesebben hit – megj. BDA) közötti dogmatikai különbözőségeket.
Az Avvenire című olasz katolikus lapnak adott interjújában Erdő Péter bíboros leszögezte: „A katolikusok és ortodoxok szinte teljesen egyek a hitben.” Hát akkor nézzük azt a néhány „jelentéktelen” dogmatikai (egész pontosan: kifejezetten a kimondott dogmákat illető) különbséget, melyet az ortodox egyház a katolikus Egyházzal szemben állít:
– Mária nem fogantatott szeplőtelenül, vagyis Mária az áteredő bűnben született. – mariológia;
– Nincs tisztítótűz. – eszkatológia;
– Nincs különítélet. – eszkatológia;
– A Szentlélek kizárólagosan az Atyától származik, vagyis nem az Atyától és a Fiútól (Filioque). – pneumatológia, trinitológia;
– Az Egyháznak nincs látható feje, csak láthatatlan: Jézus Krisztus.…More
