"The venerable Benedict extended his hand, made the sign of the cross, and, by means of this holy sign, broke the glass which was held up at some distance from him, so that the glass containing the poison was as quickly broken, as if, instead of blessing it with the sign of the cross, he had flung a stone and broken it. Beholding this wonder, the man of God knew at once that the glass contained a deadly potion, since it was unable to bear the sign of life."
“Of a glass that St. Benedict broke by making over it the sign of the CROSS. THE man of God, being freed from temptations, made new progress in virtue, and his soul became still more fruitful in good works, just as we see a field yielding more abundant fruit after it has been cleared of the thorns and put under cultivation. His life appeared so holy and edifying that every one eulogized it, and his name became famous throughout the whole country. Not far from his retreat there was a monastery whose Abbot had lately died. The whole community immediately repaired to the venerable Benedict and earnestly besought him to be their superior. For a long time he refused, alleging as an excuse that his manner of living was too different from theirs to suit each other; but at length, overcome by their importunity, he acceded to their wishes. Thus having undertaken to govern the community, he applied himself to cause the laws of monastic life to be observed; he was careful that the Religious should …More

Mon Nov 24, 2025 - 12:48 pm ESTMon Nov 24, 2025 - 12:48 pm EST (LifeSiteNews) — Pope Leo XIV, in a new apostolic letter, recalls the Nicene Creed in its original form — without the Filioque — as the foundation of the Christian faith, emphasizing the primacy of the ecumenical path. On Sunday, November 23, the Pope published an apostolic letter dedicated to the 1700th anniversary of the Council of Nicaea, In Unitate Fidei (“In the Unity of Faith”), in which he proposes renewed momentum for an ecumenical profession of faith. “We share the same faith in the one and only God, the Father of all people; we confess together the one Lord and true Son of God, Jesus Christ, and the one Holy Spirit, who inspires us and impels us towards full unity and the common witness to the Gospel. Truly, what unites us is much greater than what divides us,” wrote the Pontiff. In the text, aimed at promoting the unity of Christians with reference to the first professions of faith, Pope Leo XIV cites the …
Tommy Robinson @TRobinsonNewEra Magdeburg Christmas market has been cancelled this year because of Muslims. The town in town Germany was attacked last year, leaving six killed and more than 300 others wounded. All we hear is "Islamophobia" is the problem. All we see is Muslims raping and killing our people.
AfD party conference Essen 2015. Wikimedia Commons, Olaf Kosinsky/Skillshare.eu,CC-BY-SA-3.0-DE The cordon sanitaire against the Alternative for Germany party (AfD) looks to be crumbling among German industrialists, with two major associations reviewing their approach to the right-wingers. On November 16, the influential association of family enterprises Die Familienunternehmer (The Family Business Entrepreneurs, FU) announced it was ending its “ban” on any contact with AfD representatives. “At the core, our decision was about the interpretation of what the cordon sanitaire against AfD actually is and what its aims are,” FU president Marie-Christine Ostermann told newspaper Handelsblatt today. “For us the cordon sanitaire meant that we did not invite AfD MPs to our events out of principle. We have now ended this type of contact ban,” Ostermann said. She added, though, that her association was not keen to see AfD as a coalition partner in a future government. However, the …
Cardinal Mario Grech knew you couldn’t wait, so he dropped you a little appetizer of a publication that “seeks to promote a broader understanding of this phase of the Synod’s implementation process.” Let’s dive in. Actually, since the summary is 11,359 words long all by itself, why don’t I just summarize the summary and give you the highlights?
With Washington boycotting the summit, Carney argued that the rest of the world can exclude the US and “make progress” together towards the liberal dream of a unified global government. For many, this was more than diplomatic commentary. It was a glimpse into what globalists are trying to promote as the The South African-hosted summit proceeded despite the Trump administration’s refusal to attend, a move triggered by Trump’s repetition of a debunked claim that White Afrikaner farmers are facing genocide. Officials in Washington insisted that in America’s absence, only a “chairman’s summary” should be released. FBI Insider: Candace Owens Is 'Slated for Termination' Following Charlie Kirk Assassination South Africa ignored the demand, issuing a full declaration anyway — a symbolic moment in which global powers demonstrated they could act collectively without U.S. approval. Carney underscored this dynamic. He noted that the summit included nations representing: Three-quarters of the …
5G und WLAN: Die ignorierten Fakten Die Organisation diagnose:funk kritisiert in einem offenen Brief eine bekannte TV-Sendung, die 5G und WLAN als risikofrei darstellte, da sie zentrale wissenschaftliche Fakten ignoriert habe. Die Kritik zielt auf das sogenannte „thermische Dogma“ ab.

I would like to bring to your attention the episode of the program which was broadcast on one of the big Russian channels on the 1st of October, 2012. In this program journalist Andrey Karaulov tells about the episode which happened to Vladimir Putin in 1989 in Dresden, and was unknown till the program went on the air. At that time Putin was KGB lieutenant-colonel. The author of the program is absolutely sure that this situation was not made up since thousands of Dresden citizens became the witnesses of this event, and the story of how it all happened may be heard almost in any bar of Dresden. In 1991 President Putin left the KGB. Vladimir Putin. Unknown episode of life [english subtitles]
After making a comment about this is the sort of story they don't want us to know. It was buried so deeply my fingers were hurting and stiff. I would love to know who it is that doesn't want anyone to know the truth?
(LifeSiteNews) — In a remarkable video, a young woman named “Laura” who converted from Buddhism to Catholicism in 2018 pleads with Pope Leo XIV to be faithful to his role as Christ’s representative on Earth and urged him to stop being “confusing and abstract.” “When I heard that the world was receiving a new Pope, I was very curious, was very hopeful to see what was to come,” she began. “I will be honest out of love,” she said in preface to her bold criticisms to follow. “It is not within God’s law that we ordain women to be deacons or priests,” she said, and encouraged the Holy Father to judge prelates and priests who advocate for such as “false shepherds – wolves in sheep’s clothing – who lead souls to hell.” “You cannot overlook this,” she said. “You cannot be passive when it comes to sin.” In September, Pope Leo XIV named female “artist” Cristiana Perrella, who has published homoerotic and sadomasochistic photographs as the new president of the Pontifical Academy for …
