Pope Leo XIV arrived in Lebanon this afternoon. During the flight, he reaffirmed the Holy See’s support for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. He also noted that, while in Turkey, he discussed plans for a major ecumenical gathering in 2033—possibly in Jerusalem—to mark 2,000 years since Christ’s death and resurrection. In Lebanon, large crowds braved heavy rain to glimpse the Pope. He was welcomed by a light show projected onto the walls of the Presidential Palace in Baabda before speeking to Lebanon’s civil authorities.

Danny Haiphong Vladimir Putin has just sent a major reality check to Trump as the latest US led Ukraine peace plan crumbles and the Pentagon issues a stark warning on the state of Kiev that is sending shockwaves across the West. Danny Haiphong breaks it all down. youtube.com/watch?v=uaYY95mb5uk
I have to admit: I don't understand it. If there's a ship heading for a Russian port to load oil for foreign markets... There's nothing "shadowy" there. If that oil is bound for a country that hasn't imposed sanktions, I don't see any problem. Senegal, to my knowledge, along with the majority of all countries, doesn't have any sanktions... hence nobody is legally allowed to stop or even attack ships trading between Russia and Senegal.
Ok Jeffrey Ade I will explain why it isn't because you still have not gotten back to me. So I don't know how you feel about it either way. But you laughing over it makes me think you actually do believe it is a Bible. !. They stole our Holy Catholic Bible. Starting with luther the lying loony toon. 2. They changed everything in "OUR" Bible. Deleting books and sentences, words etc. Adding what they wanted, and changing other things. 3. protestantism is from the devil. Period! 4. They all have a different book they read from, changed to their own liking and agenda. 5. Our Bible which was rewritten is no longer a Bible. Period! These people each have their own teachings and belief. Each one worse than the other. Here is the worst one in my book. I hope I never meet her. youtube.com/watch?v=O8G62wvz6lU
Jeffrey, why are you laughing? Do you believe it is a Bible? Explain to me why you would think that. If you do. And I will be glad to explain to you why it isn't. Fair enough? IF you think it is a Bible that is. I just don't understand why you keep laughing the way you are. It doesn't make any sense at all.
Don't forget your gift for Jesus. What will you be giving him (for love of God and neighbor) for his 2025 birthday? What virtue, act of charity, additional prayer from the heart is He wanting most from you?
Travelling Maccabi Tel-Aviv fans before their Champions League clash with Chelsea, 2015. Wikimedia Commons , joshjdss, CC-BY-2.0 The outcry surrounding West Midlands Police (WMP) has increased following the UK Home Secretary demanding an investigation into the recent ban on Israeli soccer fans from an away game in Birmingham. Civil servants working for Shabana Mahmood have now contacted Dutch officials to examine claims made about violence during Maccabi Tel Aviv’s match against Ajax in Amsterdam last November. At the time, the decision to bar Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters from a UEFA Europa League fixture was explained in terms of their potential hooliganism. Subsequently, it came to light that—at least formally speaking—this decision would have been based on flawed ‘evidence’ gleaned from an Amsterdam police report. (There is widespread suspicion that this is just an excuse, however.) The WMP’s hot take on the police file from the Netherlands is at odds with the actual events that …
Based on a true story, a priest is confronted with the confession of the man responsible for the death of his family. Warning, it has a lot of ad's. But I think well worth it. If you want to avoid them, click on a video to the right and click back to the movie. About 29 minutes long. A Great Day (Award Winning Catholic Short Film) "A Great Day" (winner of the New York Indie Film Festival Awards) is a powerful short film that captures the heart of the Catholic faith, revealing the profound beauty of true forgiveness, healing, and spiritual renewal through the sacramental life of the Church. Rather than merely telling, this film shows—through visual storytelling and prayerful moments—the real power of God’s grace in action. Set amidst the real struggles of everyday Christians, the story explores how brokenness, resentment, and guilt are not the end—but the beginning of transformation when brought to Christ. Through the presence and ministry of Catholic priests, the film depicts the vital …More
The absence of representatives from the Russian Orthodox Church was nevertheless conspicuous, and a sign of the persistent chill both in the internal relations of the great Churches of global Orthodoxy and in relations between Rome and Moscow. The chill came after long-simmering tensions between the Patriarchates of Moscow and Constantinople came to a boil in 2018, when Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I of Constantinople granted self-governing status to the Ukrainian Orthodox Church.
