Wed Oct 30, 2024 - 5:13 pm EDTThu Oct 31, 2024 - 7:48 am EDT (LifeSiteNews) — An Italian astronomer believes he has discovered a symbolic list of the popes elected from 1534 to 2005 in the famous image of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Alessandro Massano, a Catholic at the Alpette Astronomical Observatory and Planetarium in Turin, Italy, appeared this month on the Codice Ratzinger (“Ratzinger Code”) podcast hosted by journalist Andrea Cionci to discuss his extraordinary findings. Massano has discovered both that the number of stars that appear on Our Lady’s mantle on St. Juan Diego’s tilma (cactus fiber cloak) corresponds to the number of popes after Clement VII, pontiff when Our Lady of Guadalupe appeared in 1531, to Benedict XVI (46), but the number of stars in each constellation also corresponds to the number of times a pontiff chose a particular name. The podcast has been posted to YouTube with English subtitles to make the discovery of this apparent prophecy known internationally. …
We continue posting daily Advent reflections by the Church Fathers. It's a good way to prepare to celebrate Christmas. The reflections and quotations come from the book titled, Advent and Christmas with the Church Fathers by Marco Pappalardo. Introduction What still astounds us is also what helps us to live each day with new eyes. On Christmas night in Bethlehem, many people must have experienced a wonder that rejuvenated them, drawing them outside of themselves and away from their concerns to follow the star, to seek a king, and to listen to the angels’ song. What a special night that Christmas must have been! Now it is up to us to let ourselves still be amazed by the Father’s grand gesture of love; it is up to us to believe in the Incarnation of the Son without a doubt, to be convinced of it, and to give witness to it by the strength of the Holy Spirit. Ephrem the Syrian, Hymn for the Birth of Christ, A man is overcome by great awe when he considers the miracle of God descending,…
“I am a consecrated person; I gave my life to God, so my life doesn’t belong to me,” Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, told NCRegister.com on December 12 about his offer to exchange himself for hostages in 2023. His flock includes about 190,000 Christians in Israel, 45,000 in the West Bank, and 500 in Gaza. Palestinian Christians in the West Bank, including Bethlehem, have been severely affected by the Gaza war, as tourism has nearly collapsed and work permits to Israel have been suspended. “This created a very problematic situation from the economic point of view,” the Cardinal said. The conflict has also intensified tensions between Israelis and Palestinians in the West Bank, including settler attacks on Christian Palestinian communities. Cardinal Pizzaballa described the situation as “chaotic and very problematic,” adding: “What is scary for the people is that you don’t know how, when this will finish.” Despite this, he sees the U.S.-brokered ceasefire …More

'What Australians actually got was a nationwide digital ID system. Starting December 10, every citizen logging into select online platforms must now pass through digital ID verification, biometric scans, face matching, and document checks, all justified as a way to keep under-16s off social media. Kids are now banned from certain platforms, but it’s the adults who must hand over their faces, IDs, and biometric data to prove they’re not kids. “Protecting children” has been converted into a universal surveillance upgrade for everyone.'

Copy Link Copied Share via email Share on X Share on WhatsApp Share on LinkedIn Bart De Wever is holding out over fears Belgium will be on the hook should the money need to be paid back, and has now asked for more safety nets. | Dirik Mag/Getty Images December 10, 2025 10:38 pm CET BRUSSELS ― Europe’s strategy for convincing the Belgians to support its plan to fund Ukraine? Warn them they could be treated like Hungary. At their summit on Dec. 18, EU leaders’ key task will be to win over Bart De Wever, the bloc's latest bête noire.

A 26-year-old Algerian man accused of molesting a 14-year-old girl in Porto Torres was beaten by a group of people on Tuesday evening in what authorities describe as a “punitive mission.” L’Unione Sarda reported how police intervened in the city center to prevent the crowd from inflicting more serious injuries or killing the man. According to investigators, the alleged assault occurred on Sunday around 1 p.m. CCTV footage showed the man approaching the girl, initially in a jovial way, before making more insistent advances. The girl and her parents told officers that the encounter escalated into harassment and that she was grabbed by the hair before managing to break free and run home. The family filed a complaint with the authorities, prompting an immediate search. The suspect was identified through images captured by local surveillance cameras. Authorities say the same man had been stopped days earlier in the port area of the city while attempting to board a vessel using fake identity …
12/12/2025 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. Many of us ask ourselves: How can it be that our world is heading straight for disaster? The concepts of the “deep state,” globalists, technocrats, or simply the “swamp” don’t explain why so many people on our planet are completely indifferent to the direction it’s hurtling in. They are merely the architects and executors of a plan to seize global domination during the inevitable financial crisis fueled by mounting debt. We are still in the dark when it comes to understanding this meticulously crafted plan to destroy human civilization as we know it—a plan that is unfolding before our very eyes. Muhammad is the most popular name given to newborns in England. Of course, they exploit the fear, complacency, and selfishness of most of us. Psychological phenomena play a major role in this. An article by Simone Hörrlein, a German living in Canada, published on manova.news on Wednesday, sheds some light on the mechanisms used to change the world …
