Nichols: "And I remember there was a Protestant school nearby, and I was the first Catholic priest ever to go to it. It had been there for 100 years. It was at that time that things were moving quite rapidly, actually. So if anything, what that taught me was not to be afraid to be yourself – and also that the possibilities were endless."
Here is the complete paragraph on the Latin Mass (silence is telling) CH: As you approach your 80th year and near retirement, are there any decisions or aspects of leading the diocese – whether in child protection, social issues, or doctrinal matters such as the Latin Mass – that you look back on with regret, or might have done differently? CN: There’s maybe hundreds probably. On the child abuse things, I think we were probably a bit slow to appreciate two things. One, the long-term destructive impact of abuse of a child. The first time I met and sat with survivors of childhood abuse was 20 years ago, and I’ve been doing it fairly consistently ever since. What is perfectly true is that some people never recover. They never recover in their ability to form and sustain stable relationships. It’s almost as if their capacity for trust has been destroyed – and that can be trust in God as well. So I think that we’ve tried and tried, and it’s quite difficult not just to show that we’re …More
Sweden’s King Carl Gustaf XVI slams the demands at the UN COP30 climate summit in Brazil for the West to pay more climate taxes on emissions: ”How much are we actually supposed to pay” the King asks. After having been sent to Brazil to represent Sweden at the summit, the King has made a series of statements that are viewed as controversial by climate activists. “You can think what ever you want about this, but how much are we actually supposed to pay? That is the crucial question” the King said and slammed the politicians’ plans for “richer” to earmark more funds for combatting CO₂ emissions than such as China. “That every country should be able to sign the same piece of paper – that’s simply not possible. Everyone has to take their own responsibilities and do the best they can,” the King suggested instead. He also criticised the fact that the EU countries, which account for only 6% of global emissions, are expected to pay huge sums if the new UN climate agreement is passed. “…More
Optimistic Reading of Current Church Trajectory: “a lot of renewal in Catholic education” “a real hope and a frontier that is opening up” “Catholic revival driven especially by young men”
Regarding the scandalous Doctrinal Note “Mater populi fidelis” The Doctrinal Note presented in the past few days at the Vatican, with only its Latin incipit, Mater Populi Fidelis, constitutes yet another scandalous affront from a treacherous and deviant Hierarchy, which for over sixty years, in an unstoppable crescendo, has used its authority to speciously impose its own doctrinal and moral deviations on Catholics, with the aim of dismantling the Catholic Church and losing souls. The haste—one might almost say the fury—to destroy is such that it also highlights the contradictions existing within the synodal body itself, afflicted by a significant pathological bipolarism: on the one hand, it declares the Marian title of Co-redemptrix attributed to the Virgin Mary to be improper, and on the other, it promotes John Henry Newman to Doctor Ecclesiæ, who had defended that title against the Anglicans after their attack on the dogma of the Immaculate Conception. The indignation and sense …More

During the Eucharist at St. Stefan ob Stainz Church in the Diocese of Graz, Austria, on All Saints Day, Rev. Anton Nguyen suddenly took out a Bluetooth speaker and played an upbeat song. The congregation joined in and danced. The video received 380,000 alleged Facebook-views. The priest told KleineZeitung.at that he did not expect the video to go viral. "I live as I am and want to spread joy. I did not expect this. I want to help people. If this positive energy reaches many people, then I am grateful," he said with a generous use of the first-person pronoun.
