On 2 December 2025, Swiss Emanuel Brünisholz began serving a 10-day prison sentence. He had refused to pay a 3,000-franc fine imposed for a Facebook comment. In December 2022 he had written that if "LGBTQI people were exhumed in 200 years, only male or female skeletons would be found". He called everything else "a mental illness promoted through school curricula". The post was reported to police, and in August 2023 he confirmed authorship during questioning. He was prosecuted under Switzerland’s anti-discrimination law, with the court ruling that his comment amounted to public denigration of homosexuals and violated human dignity. The case has since fueled intense debate in Switzerland over free speech and the reach of hate-speech legislation.
The Vatican’s study commission on women deacons concluded that, based on current historical and theological evidence, the Church should not move forward with ordaining women to the diaconate, though the matter cannot yet be definitively settled. Cardinal Giuseppe Petrocchi’s report noted that while women were called deaconesses in various periods of Church history, their role did not correspond to the sacramental diaconate. The commission stated that the issue ultimately requires doctrinal discernment, not just historical analysis. Although divided on key theological points, members agreed that women’s access to new non-ordained ministries should be expanded.
The Vatican on Thursday published the conclusions of its study commission on women deacons. The Commission rules out admitting women to the diaconate understood as a degree of the sacrament of Holy Orders, but without issuing a definitive judgment at this time. The report stresses repeatedly that the negative assessment is “strong” yet “does not permit formulating a definitive judgment,” unlike the case of priestly ordination. Submission of the Report to Pope Leo XIV On 18 September, Cardinal Giuseppe Petrocchi, President of the Study Commission on the Female Diaconate, submitted to Pope Leo XIV a detailed synthesis of the Commission’s work. The report reflects several years of historical, theological, and pastoral investigation. Historical Findings: A Non-Sacramental Ancient Practice The Commission revisited the findings of two earlier Vatican commissions. Historical research confirms that, in the early Church, the title deaconess appeared in different regions and periods, but with …More
Campisi is no longer assessor for general affairs because Pope Leo appointed him on Sept. 27 as the Holy See’s permanent observer to UNESCO—an appointment considered unusually low-ranking for someone in that role, since his predecessors for the last 55 years were made bishops and nuncios after leaving the post. The assets of the donations commission will be absorbed by the Holy See, with its liquidation overseen by Archbishop Giordano Piccinotti, head of APSA, the Vatican’s sovereign wealth and reserve management body. The commission’s suppression marks yet another reversal of decisions previously made under Pope Francis.
There never were female deacons, even though some women did help out in some ways over 1500 years ago. But then, there also were never any female acolytes or lectors. See, it is a brand-new religion that is devil made.
State Tribunal. Warszawa. Gmach Sądów – Google Maps The Polish Supreme Court issued a groundbreaking ruling today that no court or public authority can challenge a ruling from the Supreme Court, including the European Union. The ruling marks a significant moment in the battle for legal sovereignty in Poland. “No court or other public authority is authorized to declare a Supreme Court ruling null and void and disregard its effects. Even if this were to be done by invoking European Union law,” reads the new decision from the Supreme Court. The ruling came during a joint chamber of Extraordinary Control and Public Affairs and of Labor and Social Security. The ruling is a direct response to the September resolution by seven judges of the Labor and Social Security Chamber, which questioned the legality of the entire Chamber of Extraordinary Control and Public Affairs. These judges, citing rulings of the European Court of Justice (ECJ) and the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR), found …
Hell is real, and when the temptations of sin prove to be more forceful than our love for God, a salutary fear can help us stay on the straight road to life.
“Our Lady is not Co-Redemptrix” - Brazil Archbishop: "We don’t need to say that Mary is co-Redemptrix, that Jesus needs Mary to save humanity. Mary herself is prepared, saved by God; she is a creature of God. She makes herself the servant of her own son, but she is not co-redemptrix", Archbishop Juárez Marqués of Teresina, Brazil, said on November 27 in an interview with the local TV Jornal TV Cidade Verde.
“Não precisamos dizer que Maria é corredentora, que Jesus precisa de Maria para salvar a humanidade. Maria mesma, ela é preparada, salva por Deus, é a criatura de Deus. Se faz serva do seu próprio filho, mas não é corredentora, agora ela é intercessora nossa”, disse o arcebispo de Teresina (PI), dom Juarez Marques ontem (27), em uma entrevista ao Jornal TV Cidade Verde.

Because the current apostasy deserves a prophetic and biblical explanation. And I believe John Henry Westen, quite rightly, is trying to find the reason why we have two apostates usurping the Chair of Peter, who are dragging souls to hell with their open promotion of sodomy.
Between 1926 and 1929, Mexico was the scene of a massive uprising against the anti-clerical policies of the revolutionary government of Plutarco Elías Calles.
Apostate Prevost attacks the kingship of Christ and denies the Holy Trinity The apostate Robert Prevost demonstrates once again that he does not profess the Catholic faith by claiming that Christians and Muslims worship the same God in an act of interreligious apostasy. St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274) "It is absurd for a heretic to say that he believes in Jesus Christ. To believe in a person is to give our full consent to his word and to all he teaches. True faith, therefore, is absolute belief in Jesus Christ and in all He taught. Hence, he who does not adhere to everything Jesus Christ has prescribed for our salvation does not have any more of the Doctrine of Jesus Christ than the pagans, Jews and Mohammedans."
Leo Claims Christians and Muslims Worship Same God at Interfaith Spectacle
The descriptions " worm-ridden" and "cesspools of impurity" fit them as the members of this counterfeit church of satan prove again and again that they are enemies of the ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC, and APOSTOLIC Church which is THE ONLY TRUE CHURCH which was instituted by JESUS CHRIST.
Prevost is not only a heretic, he is an apostate. The false god Allah contradicts Yahweh. And the counterfeit Abraham of the Quran is Islamic, not Jewish. We Catholics profess that God is Triune, and Islam denies the Holy Trinity.

In mid-November, the group 'RED LGBT Córdoba' held a homosexual Eucharistic in Córdoba, Argentina, and published a video of the event on social media. The images show a church with rainbow-themed elements, a presider wearing a rainbow stole, and homosexuals grabbing Communion. The organizers incorporated symbolic items previously used in the local homosexual parade, including an embroidered tablecloth and a rainbow coloured heart. One poster depicts a cartoon-style Christ embracing a homosexual, and another displays the slogan “Todos, Todos, Todos”.
@Boanerges Boanerges Lest we forget: Neither of them would have been possible if Montini, Wojtyla and Ratzinger had not set the table for them. They and many others were in the episcopal pipeline (Prevost had been warming up in the Modernism-laced Augustinian bullpen as Prior General for 12 years) that those previously elected Popes created. Besides their problematic positions taken at Vatican II, none of them governed; none of them disciplined so there was a complete breakdown in Church order and the descent into the chaos that now surrounds us.
Catholic bishops have no right to micro-manage specific actions carried out by members of our military services. Six Democrat lawmakers, who are also veterans of military services, have come under fire for issuing a video encouraging members of the U.S. military services to disobey so-called “illegal” orders issued by President Trump. The Pentagon is now considering recalling some of these lawmakers to have them formally court-martialed. The Pentagon may need to expand its list of potential court-martials to include Archbishop Timothy Broglio who heads-up the Catholic Archdiocese for the Military Services, USA. Religious News Services is reporting that that Archbishop Broglio has now issued a statement appears to echo Democrats’ call for military members to disobey their orders: Archbishop Timothy Broglio said that an order to kill survivors of an attack by U.S. forces on a boat in the Caribbean would be wrong if they posed no immediate danger to those forces. To deliberately kill …
Smuggling deadly drugs into our nation is an abomination, and against our sovereignty. Other means were attempted to stop the flow, and at a last resort, Trump decided to bomb the drug boats. The smugglers were warned so they are committing suicide by carrying drugs destined to the United States. Just as warning signs are posted to keep people out because of mine fields, quicksand or vicious beasts, so too these traffickers have been given ample notice to cease their evil practices.
He's right, though. He spoke of a very specific action that clearly violates Just War Theory - the killing of unarmed, non-threatening combatants. The Church has never supported orders of no quarters.
