"We tend to think that when the Church is talking about morality, that the only issue of morality is sexual. And in reality, I believe there are much greater, more important issues, such as justice, equality, freedom of men and women, freedom of religion, that would all take priority before that particular issue."
On the return flight to Rome today, Pope Leo XIV was asked about the decision of Cardinal Reinhard Marx of Munich, Germany, to enforce "blessings" for homosexual couples in his archdiocese. Leo XIV replied: "First of all, I think it’s very important to understand that the unity or division of the Church should not revolve around sexual matters. We tend to think that when the Church is talking about morality, that the only issue of morality is sexual. And in reality, I believe there are much greater, more important issues, such as justice, equality, freedom of men and women, freedom of religion, that would all take priority before that particular issue. The Holy See has already spoken to the German bishops. The Holy See has made it clear that we do not agree with the formalized blessing of couples, in this case, homosexual couples, as you asked, or couples in irregular situations, beyond what was specifically, if you will, allowed for by Pope Francis in saying all people receive blessings. …More
Cardinal Reinhard Marx of Munich has lamented about what he describes as a "coordinated campaign" on social media against the German Synod, he told Herder Korrespondenz. He is 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 used Marxist language. “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 [that is not interested in the Church] 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 …More
Oh so you want us not to call you Judas and false prophets... So you steal and want praise? Woe to you clan of vipers! Can you avoid the Judgment to come? White washed tombs.
On 23 April, Bishop emeritus Joseph Strickland of Tyler, Texas, commented on X.com on the homosexual 'blessing' in the Archdiocese of Munich: "This is evil and must be opposed by every faithful Catholic. Woe to so-called shepherds who lead the sheep astray. Rome should speak clearly and immediately but all I hear is silence. Blessing sin is the complete opposite of love." Cardinal Reinhard Marx of Munich has instructed all priests and full-time pastoral staff in the archdiocese to perform, enable or facilitate 'blessings' of same-sex and adulterous couples. #newsRyvhmffviq
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.

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. hmtv
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
The Vatican altered the official Italian transcript of Pope Leo XIV’s 23 April flight remarks, removing the word "infamous".

On the first anniversary of the death of Pope Francis, the question is no longer whether his legacy will endure, but how it is already unfolding. It is becoming harder to draw a clear line between the end of his pontificate and the beginning of that of Pope Leo XIV. The continuity is striking – and intentional.
"The august Mary comprehended how important it was that St. Joseph should have to endure this affliction, by which his spirit was exercised and prepared for the great charge that was to be confided to him. He had now passed two months of suffering, and, overcome by his apprehensions, he exclaimed: ‘I find no remedy for my grief but absence. I acknowledge that my spouse is perfect, but it is not possible for me to penetrate the mystery of her condition, and I will not insult her virtue by subjecting her to the penalties-of the law. I will depart forthwith.” The saint resolved to set out during the night. He therefore prepared a small packet of clothing. Having received a trifling sum of money which was due to him for work, he determined to leave the house after midnight."

JOSEPH INCREASE, AN) HE RESOLVES TO LEAVE HIS SPOUSE—THE ANGEL OF THE LORD DECLARES TO TIIM THE MYSTERY OF THE INCARNATION. ST JOSEPH endeavored to calm the painful agitations of his heart by doing his utmost - remove the conviction of his mind respecting the condition of his wife. But the indications which became every day more visible in her holy person served only to confirm it.

"And as he /Joseph/ preserved silence, not seeking consolation elsewhere, (as men usually do,) the sufferings of the saint were naturally more intense. The heart of the gentle Mary was penetrated by a sorrow not less profound; but she resolved to redouble her cares for the health of her spouse. She continued to conceal the mystery which she had no command to disclose, in order to honor and to preserve the secret of the celestial King. So far as regarded herself, she left nothing undone to promote his comfort—entreating him to remind her of anything which might contribute to restore his declining health."

SHOCK: Dr. Chris Shoemaker. The chromosomal karyotype of people "vaccinated" against COVID has been genetically and permanently altered: "One-third of the weight of every injection you received was deoxyribonucleic acid, which has the capacity to pass through the nucleus of your cell. And once inside, something called transfection occurs. It has nothing to do with an infection. Transfection simply means absorption into the very part of the body that contains your genetic karyotype—your chromosomes"... "Thus, these tiny fragments of DNA settle alongside the chromosomes; they are processed by certain enzymes, and the body naturally begins to integrate them into itself. And that is what they discovered"... "Regrettably, they discovered that in the liver cells—and many other tissue cells—of patients, both living and deceased, the person's chromosomal karyotype has permanently changed. Their sperm cells, their ovarian cells, their spleen cells, their immune cells—deep within the …More
IMPACTANTE: Dr. Chris Shoemaker. El cariotipo cromosómico de las personas "vacunadas" contra la COVID ha sido alterado genética y permanentemente: "Un tercio del peso de cada inyección que recibieron consistía en ácido desoxirribonucleico, el cual tiene la capacidad de atravesar el núcleo de la célula. Y una vez dentro, se produce algo llamado transfección. No tiene nada que ver con una infección. La transfección significa simplemente la absorción hacia la misma parte del cuerpo que contiene su cariotipo genético: sus cromosomas"... "Así pues, estos diminutos fragmentos de ADN se alojan junto a los cromosomas; son procesados por ciertas enzimas y el cuerpo comienza, de forma natural, a integrarlos en sí mismo. Y eso es lo que descubrieron"... "Lamentablemente, descubrieron que, en las células hepáticas —y en las células de muchos otros tejidos— de los pacientes, tanto vivos como fallecidos, el cariotipo cromosómico de la persona ha cambiado de manera permanente.
