Cardinal Marx Frustrated by Online Success of Critics of Synodal Path

Cardinal Reinhard Marx of Munich has criticized what he describes as a coordinated campaign on social media against the German Synod, he told Herder Korrespondenz.
He was frustrated about “the narrative” portraying the German Synodal as schismatic and that it gained such strong influence.
“This is also a phenomenon of social media, especially among the more reactionary camp,” Cardinal Marx said. “They are very well coordinated in their efforts, particularly in the United States. This applies to politics, and it also applies to the Church. The other side isn’t as active there. I have repeatedly pointed out to both Francis and Leo XIV that propaganda is taking place.”
And: “In terms of communication, it certainly would have been better to talk to one another more. But perhaps we - myself included - should have sought dialogue earlier. I admit, however, that I was worried we wouldn’t have made any progress then. Now the task is to effectively integrate our Synodal Path with the universal …More

Does state secularism spell the end of the Catholic Church in Quebec?

Canada's Quebec was once a strong French Catholic province. Canada is founded on Christan roots. However, the Quiet Revolution going back to the 1960s to modernize and turn the province from a Catholic-centred society into a modern, secular and technocratic state has been largely done. The province took another step recently to complete the process.
On April 2, 2026,
Bill 9 An Act respecting the reinforcement of laicity became law in Quebec. One could argue the old Liberal government's slogan to be, "Maîtres chez nous," (Masters of our own house), from 1960-1966, has now been fully accomplished in education, healthcare, workplace and places of worship.
What is the new laicity law supposed to do? Reinforce secularism in public spaces and the workplace. Bill 9 bans the display of religious symbols and prohibits religious practice in all government institutions such as childcare centres, healthcare facilities and private schools.
"Religious practice" is defined as "any action, except the …

Canada’s House of Commons passes bill that could criminalize quoting the Bible
Canada’s House of Commons has passed a controversial bill that could criminalize the public reading or quoting of the Bible on issues of marriage, sexuality, and human life. Bill C-9, known as the “Combatting Hate Act,” was introduced by Liberal Justice Minister Sean Fraser and passed on March 25, 2026, in a 186–137 vote. The bill was supported by Liberal and Bloc Québécois MPs, while Conservatives, the NDP, and the Green Party voted against it in rare cross-party opposition.

Canadá: La Biblia camino de convertirse en el gran libro prohibido
La Cámara de los Comunes de Canadá aprobó el pasado 25 de marzo el proyecto de ley C-9, conocido como Ley contra el Odio, que elimina la exención histórica que protegía la expresión religiosa de buena fe frente a las leyes de propaganda del odio. La norma ha sido remitida al Senado para su revisión final, y tanto el Cardenal Frank Leo, arzobispo metropolitano de Toronto, como la Conferencia de Obispos Católicos de Canadá (CCCB) han exigido enmiendas que garanticen explícitamente la libertad de religión, conciencia y expresión.

Canada’s House of Commons passes bill that could …
The legislation removes a longstanding religious exemption from Canada’s hate speech laws, opening the door to potential criminal charges against Christians who publicly affirm biblical teachings on topics such as homosexuality and gender. Constitutional experts and faith leaders have condemned the bill for empowering police and courts to punish individuals based on subjective claims of “hateful” feelings rather than clear incitement to violence.
The Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops issued an open letter strongly opposing the removal of the religious exemption and calling on the Senate to reject the amendment. Campaign Life Coalition warned that the bill will almost certainly lead to increased persecution of Christians and pro-life advocates under the guise of combating hate. CLC Campaigns Manager David Cooke stated: “With the passage of Bill C-9 in the House, Christians and pro-life advocates will almost certainly face an …More

Bishop Schneider praised this archbishop's speech against concelebration at Vatican II - LifeSite

Thu Apr 23, 2026 - 3:56 pm EDTThu Apr 23, 2026 - 4:43 pm EDT
(
LifeSiteNews) — A Dominican archbishop’s opposition to non-traditional ideas of how priests should concelebrate Mass, a topic debated at the Second Vatican Council, is making the rounds online.
Bishop Athanasius Schneider, in his 2022 book The Catholic Mass, referred to a speech by Archbishop Paul-Pierre Philippe, OP as “one of the most doctrinally and liturgically sound contributions during the conciliar debate on concelebration.”
“The ritual form of Eucharistic concelebration introduced after the Second Vatican Council, and its practice in the life of the Church today, is certainly contrary to the entire tradition of both the Eastern and Western Church,” Schneider wrote.
“The vision of the Council Fathers corresponded to the constant practice of the Church, where the concelebration of the Eucharist was done according to hierarchical order, that is, the cardinals and bishops with the pope and the priests with the bishop …

There are now *hundreds* of churches being burnt down in France and Germany every year. Dozens a year in the US and Canada, as well as Britain, Spain and Austria. Christendom is under attack, and nobody can ever name the perpetrators. What is going on?

@chris griffin That is not "made up." Just the truth. Abortion was first legalized in the Soviet Union. It spread from there. Easy to fact check.

The Vatican altered the official Italian transcript of Pope Leo XIV’s 23 April flight remarks, removing the word "infamous". He had used it while discussing homosexual "blessings" in the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising and describing Pope Francis’ phrase tutti, tutti, tutti as infamous, famous, well known.

Pagliarani Criticizes Cardinals Müller, Sarah over FSSPX Consecrations - Thanks Bishops Schneider, Strickland

The Superior of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX), Father Davide Pagliarani, commented on the July 1 episcopal consecrations in an in-house interview with LaPorteLatine.org. Key lines.
- The episcopal consecrations… are not a rebellion, but the response to a cruel necessity.
- Cardinals Gerhard Müller, Robert Sarah, and other bishops suffer from a typically modern malaise: an inability to reconcile the demands of faith with those of canon law, leading to a kind of paralyzing dichotomy.
- The FSSPX holds that these principles must not simply be juxtaposed, but hierarchized - one subordinated to the other.
- The ‘rigorous’ canonists still consider the FSSPX schismatic — this is how one must understand the statements of Cardinal Raymond Leo Burke.
- Bishop Athanasius Schneider has shown great courage and freedom of speech… his support will go down in history.
- I thank Bishop Joseph Strickland for his message full of strength, clarity, and courage.
- Bishop Vitus Huonder,…More

A dying Novus Ordo parish is given a Latin Mass, which naturally explodes in popularity. A few influential Novus parishioners get jealous, make up bogus accusations, and run the trads out of town. Now the parish is basically closed, and they call it a success. Sound familiar? 🤡

Detroit Parish That Drew Crowds With Latin Mass Closed

A Detroit parish that had previously been revitalised by the Mass in the Roman rite has now closed, reports CatholicCulture.org on April 21.
St Josaphat in Detroit, Michigan, began offering the Roman Rite in 2004 when the parish was in full decline.
This liturgy led to a rapid increase in attendance, particularly among younger Catholics.
However, in 2012, tensions developed within the parish of St. Josaphat between Novus Ordo and Roman Rite parishioners. This followed the appointment of a new parish priest.
Some older members expressed concerns about the level of involvement and financial contribution of the younger group. However, according to accounts from those involved, the Latin Mass community contributed approximately two-thirds of parish revenue. The dispute continued for several years.
Finally, the parish was merged. Today, it is effectively closed, with no regular Eucharists.
This is the story of a group of Catholics in a dying parish who, when presented with an unexpected …More

Actual Grace in Conversion | The Fatima Center

Editor’s Note: An excellent way to summarize the Message of Fatima is that Our Lady is calling all of us to conversion, reparation, and consecration. Our most recent Issue of The Fatima Crusader (#136, Fall 2025) focused on how to Live the Message of Fatima by emphasizing important Catholic practices along the lines of these three themes. The Fatima Center also recently posted a video by Fr. Karl Stehlin detailing the connection between these themes, the Message of Fatima, and the lives of the three little shepherds to whom Our Lady appeared. Watch this video, Living the Message of Fatima Today: Why and How, or listen to the audio only podcast. We also invite you to read a short excerpt from Frere Michel’s The Whole Truth About Fatima which shows how Fatima Is a Call to Conversion.

@ 123jussi, You just made my point exactly!!!!!!!!!!!!! You know very well that she has never tried to stop abortion so all you can do is insult me. The apparition is not the mother of the living because she is horribly cruel to the unborn. She never, never tries to save them or help them.
Jeffrey Ade the apparition has no sympathy of the unborn and you know it. That is why you can only spout a generalization that is meaningless.

I don't know what moves you to speak of the Mother of All the living that way Chris ,but it is probably the most serious blasphemy I have ever heard concerning her and her care for us.

How Iran Committed Suicide: Iran’s decades-long bluff—built on terror proxies, nuclear brinkmanship, and Western appeasement—collapsed the moment it faced direct force and a changed geopolitical landscape.

How Iran Committed Suicide › American Greatness

How does the supposedly most fearsome regime in the violent Middle East now find itself on the verge of an utter economic and military collapse?
Iran’s half-century-long deadly terrorist reputation peaked with the October 7, 2023, massacre in Israel that it helped fund and coordinate.
Iran’s terrorist ambitions of running the Middle East had accelerated after witnessing Joe Biden’s cognitive decline and his administration’s distancing itself from Israel. Biden’s humiliation by a series of Chinese slights and the Russian invasion of Ukraine further eroded American deterrence. European appeasement was another force multiplier of Iranian hubris.
The theocracy apparently assumed that its supposed “ring of fire” terrorist proxies—in Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Gaza, and Yemen—could lethally squeeze Israel, now reeling from the greatest single-day loss of Jewish life since the Holocaust.
The theocrats further conjectured that, like most incumbent presidents, Biden would be reelected and continue …

SHOCKING: Mother Miriam Drops Truth Bombs on the Pope & Vatican! “False prophets” now have an official prayer room inside the Vatican Library — so Muslims can pray to their false god on sacred ground. Mother Miriam is speaking out with righteous fire: This is a grave scandal and betrayal of the Catholic Faith. How on earth do you allow this inside the heart of the Church?! Christ is King. The First Commandment still matters. You don’t honor the true Faith by giving equal space to falsehood. Wake up, Catholics. This interfaith “openness” is going too far. Who else is tired of watching the Vatican bend over backwards?
