Looking at the future of the so-called Extraordinary Rite ("Old Mass"), Gänswein, according to the broadcaster, advocated overcoming the tensions and discord that arose within the Church after Pope Francis's Apostolic Exhortation "Traditionis Custodes" by returning to the line of Benedict XVI: "I consider Pope Benedict's wise arrangement to be the right way—and this path should be continued without difficulty, without restrictions." He could only hope that Pope Leo XIV would continue to resolve this thorny issue in this way.
The chapel at Rome’s Termini Station was closed in early December 2025 after a reportedly intoxicated man was seen urinating on the altar, according to EtruriaNews. Authorities suspended access following the sacrilegious act, leaving commuters, workers, and vulnerable people without a small spiritual refuge. No public information indicates that anyone has been arrested.
La cappella della stazione ferroviaria Termini di Roma, la più trafficata d'Italia, è stata chiusa dopo che un uomo in stato di ebbrezza ha profanato l'altare.
“The Blessed Virgin was not only the Mother of Christ; she was His faithful associate in the great work of redemption.” — St. Pius X, Ad Diem Illum Laetissimum (1904)
"The way to Heaven is tough. Our time has reached a higher intensity of evil than before. Temptations are greater than ever,” said Bishop Bernard Fellay of the Priestly Fraternity of St Pius X in an interview with Kenya’s Immaculata TV on 23 November (video below). He explained that there has been a terrible crisis in the Church since Vatican II, including a terrifying decline in vocations: "You wonder how far it can go." And, "The influence of the Church on the world is now reduced to nothing." Bishop Fellay quoted Cardinal Ratzinger’s well-known prediction that the Church as we know it will disappear and be reduced to "little islands": "I fear we are very close to that time." He continued, "A lot of things in the Church have already been destroyed." On Tucho’s Document About Marian Titles Regarding Cardinal Victor (Tucho) Fernández and his recent document on the Marian titles Co-Redemptrix and Mediatrix of all graces, Bishop Fellay called it “pitiful.” “It is an insult to God,” he …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.
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.
Rome has shown legitimate liturgical flexibility concerning the filioque—omitting it at Nicaea, and permitting Eastern-rite Catholics to profess the Creed without it in keeping with the received tradition of their rites—but papal infallibility cannot be relegated to a negotiable adaptation or cultural variance.
In his homily during the Divine Liturgy in Istanbul on 30 November, the Greek Orthodox Patriarch Bartholomew referred to the theological differences between Orthodoxy and the Church. He referred to the Apostle Andrew as the founder of a distinct church, and identified Catholic dogmas as an obstacle to achieving full unity. The quotes: - "As successors of the two holy Apostles [Andrew and Peter], the founders of our respective Churches, we feel bound by ties of spiritual brotherhood." - "We can only pray that issues such as the filioque and infallibility will be resolved such that their understanding no longer serve as stumbling blocks to the communion of our Churches." #newsKhlgvfjdnl
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
The push for women deacons will undoubtedly persist, even in the face of negative pronouncements from Rome. In an August '25 article, Dr. Monica Miller lays out why the Church—from Scripture, the early Church, and every pope who’s weighed in—has always said no. Solid, readable, and unapologetic. Women Deacons? Here’s Why Not

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.
Arius in an altercation with St Nicholas Source: The Archaeologist Why Did Arius Die Such a Death? Author: Fr. Valentine Long It was a mysterious death. No thug had attacked the theologian to lay him low. No sadist had slit open his body. No weapon in human hand did the deed. It just seemed to happen. Might it have been the direct vengeance of God? The historian Socrates was inclined to think so. Cardinal Newman, who even quoted Gibbon as not ruling out the likelihood, unreservedly thought so. But, not to be swayed by their verdict, suppose we review the turbulent career that ended so tragically and judge for ourselves. Arius, the name of the theologian in question, was not long a priest in the Egyptian diocese of Alexandria when he began preaching his denial of Christ's divinity. He was not easily silenced. He was not silenced at all-- until his death. His bishop tried at first to dissuade him gently; too gently, many think; but St. Alexander, the patriarch of Alexandria, had hopes of …More
So schreiben die englischen Blogs über die deutsche Kirche: "Militante modernistische deutsche katholische Laien sind wütend darüber, dass ihre Macht und ihr Einfluss unter dem neuen Pontifikat langsam schwinden."
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 …
