“I am in favour of moving ahead quickly with the ordination of women to the diaconate,” English Cardinal Timothy Radcliffe OP, 80, told Telegraph.co.uk on January 6. On female priests, he added that it is “complicated”: “It’s not the most important question. Ordination to the priesthood isn’t the big priority. It has to be done with the consent of the whole Church.” Beautiful Touching Between Elderly Men Cardinal Radcliffe is a friend of the late Pope Francis. In 2016, while recovering from an operation on his jaw following a cancer diagnosis, he attended a conference in Rome with the then pope: “He came over and rested his forehead on my forehead for about 30 seconds. Nothing was said. It was beautiful.” Leo XIV in Continuity with Francis, but Better Manners Pope Leo XIV was elected partly “to bring back people who had been alienated by Francis”, and partly to continue his predecessor’s work. "We chose Leo because he could do both – he could move it on but also gather people in …More

What do you think: is it manifest destiny that the United States acquire or at least exercise control over Greenland? That’s pretty much how we got Texas, California, New Mexico, Hawaii, the Philippines, Puerto Rico, Guam and American Samoa. Then there was the Louisiana purchase. In 1803, Thomas Jefferson doubled the size of the United States, paying France $15 million or a bit less than three cents per acre for a land mass that is about 26 percent of the contiguous United States. And let’s not forget about Alaska. A few facts about Greenland. It is big: 836,000 square miles. It is home to about 50,000 people, mostly Inuits. Historically, it has been seen as the semi-autonomous property of Denmark. It is much closer to the east coast of the United States than it is to Denmark – much, much closer if you travel from the 51st state, sometimes known as Canada. According to Donald Trump, we’ll get around to talking about the United States exercising control of Greenland in “two months,”…

The Russian army is urgently evacuating the staff of the Russian embassy along with their families in Israel and returning them to Russia. This is the third flight by Russia in the past 24 hours to evacuate its embassy in Israel. There are some news that Russia has been informed of apparently. Pray the Rosary......prions le Très Saint rosaire et faisons pénitence.....urgent...la guerre est à notre porte !
Don't believe everything you read in the news. On the other hand since Russia's KGB works hand in glove with the Mossad it is likely there will be a false flag event and Russia is in on the planning! So there! Believe what you want but not silly prophecies from someone who "saw the assassination attempt," total fakery 101 folks!
Iran is planning an attack in the middle of the night, probably with bio weapons. That's what was shown to Brandon Biggs (youtube.com/channel/UCBqj7_4xib9pKATW4394PmQ) in a prophetic vision.
Doesn't care if Nato breaks up | John Bolton "As long as he thinks he can get away with it, the risk is there." There is cause for concern as long as he believes he can take over Greenland and meet no resistance, says former national security advisor, John Bolton.

Venezuelans take to the streets to protest against Trump shortly after their president, Nicolas Maduro, was kidnapped. Source. Comments by Brian Shilhavy By now everyone has seen the news that President Trump sent a special forces unit into Caracas, Venezuela to capture President Nicolás Maduro and his wife and son. It has taken me a couple of days to research all sides of this story before I could comment on it. For those who mainly get their news from U.S. sources, let’s clear up one false claim that some in the U.S. media have been stating, which is that Venezuelan Vice President Delcy Rodríguez participated with the U.S. in Maduro’s capture, and was installed as President to replace Maduro by the U.S. This did not happen. In fact, Delcy Rodríguez has condemned the actions of the U.S., declaring that Nicolás Maduro is still the president of Venezuela, and it was her own country’s Supreme Court that appointed her as interim president. Her first speech after this event is mostly …
Bethlehem celebrates Solemnity of Epiphany | Shalom World News Each year on January 6, Bethlehem solemnly re-enacts the journey of the Magi during the Solemnity of the Epiphany. This ancient tradition, led by the Custos of the Holy Land, unfolds within the hallowed spaces of the Church of the Nativity and St. Catherine’s Church, built over the birthplace of Jesus Christ. Amid prayer and chant, a solemn procession advances toward the Grotto of the Nativity, followed by the celebration of the Holy Mass in St. Catherine’s. The liturgy reaches its climax when three Franciscan friars, vested as the Magi, offer grains of frankincense and drops of myrrh—symbols of worship, sacrifice, and kingship—to the faithful. Although some countries observe the Epiphany on different dates, January 6 remains its spiritual heart, commemorating the moment when Christ was revealed to the nations and the light of salvation shone forth to the world.
2025 saw a major increase in US airstrikes due to President Trump loosening the rules of engagement for military commanders and launching new interventions in the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America. According to a report from the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data (ACLED) released earlier this year, Trump launched nearly as many airstrikes in just his first five months in office as President Biden did during his entire four-year term. If Trump’s claims of a Christmas Eve attack on Venezuela and reports that it was a CIA drone strike are true, the US has bombed seven countries this year, on top of the airstrikes targeting alleged drug boats in the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific Ocean. Somalia The Trump administration has conducted an unprecedented escalation of the US air war in Somalia this year, launching at least 127 airstrikes, more than double the previous annual record of US bombings in the country, which Trump set at 63 during his first term in office. According to …

Roman Catholic Cardinal - Chaldean Catholic Patriarch Cardinal Louis Raphael Sako Louis Raphaël I Cardinal Sako [Catholic-Hierarchy] The Eliya line was a traditionalist patriarchate of the Church of the East, originating from the 1552 schism, residing primarily at the Rabban Hormizd Monastery near Alqosh, Iraq, and maintaining independence from Rome while resisting Catholic overtures for centuries. This branch preserved its unique East Syriac traditions and Christology, eventually seeing most followers unite with Rome by 1830 to form the Chaldean Catholic Church, while the rival Shimun line continued as the Assyrian Church of the East The East Syriac Christian Church (Church of the East) traces its founding to the Apostles, primarily St. Thomas the Apostle, along with St. Addai (Thaddeus) and St. Mari, who brought Christianity to Mesopotamia and Persia, establishing the See of Seleucia-Ctesiphon, with traditions also linking Bartholomew. These apostles, particularly Thomas and …More
Cardinal Sako in Iraq receives threats after Christmas homily. Photo: al-monitor In Iraq, Chaldean Catholic Patriarch Cardinal Louis Raphael Sako received threats from Islamist groups after a Christmas homily in Baghdad. This was reported by Chaldean Press. The reason for the attacks on the cardinal was his homily, where he used the word "normalization", speaking about the need for reconciliation and spiritual unity in Iraqi society. However, some Islamic leaders interpreted this expression as a call for political normalization of relations with Israel, which caused a sharp reaction and legal appeals demanding Sako's arrest. After this, Sako began receiving numerous threats from Iraq and Iran. Representatives of the Chaldean Archdiocese issued a statement clarifying that the speech was exclusively about internal peace and cultural development of the country, not about international relations. The document emphasizes that the homily had no political undertones, and the word "normalization …
Father Tad Pacholczyk On The Morality Of Embryo Adoption Father Tad Pacholczyk serves as Senior Ethicist at The National Catholic Bioethics Center and has a doctorate in neuroscience. Today he joins Kevin Nelson in the living room to chat about embryo adoption. He defines embryo adoption for us and why there is controversy around the topic, talks about how there is no official Church teaching on it, his professional opinion as an ethicist, his recent debate on this topic with another Catholic priest, what the points of his opposing position and what his reasons were, if a Catholic couple can choose this option prudently or if it is a grave sin, some alternatives to embryo adoption that still recognize the dignity of the human life of the embryo but doesn’t force a couple to engage in in-vitro fertilization, and where viewers can learn more about his work.
