Screengrab youtube The installation raised next to the Christmas tree that adorns Brussels’ Grand-Place this year, titled “Fabrics of the Nativity,” has drawn criticism. While it includes the traditional figures of Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus, it replaces classic sacred imagery with life-size dolls dressed in recycled textiles. The figures have no faces, only patchwork patterns in beige and brown. According to organizers, this was meant to create “an inclusive mix of skin tones.” Critics argue it strips the nativity of its spiritual meaning and turns it into a political statement. City officials say the old nativity scene was too damaged to keep. Mayor Philippe Close (PS) insisted Brussels would not follow other cities that removed their nativity displays, but admitted jokingly that as a secular mayor he didn’t want to handle the issue alone. The project was reviewed and approved by St. Michael and St. Gudula Cathedral—a decision that has raised eyebrows among those who expected a …
The French Revolution came back wearing a new outfit: Marxism-Leninism. This time it was unleashed to desolate not only the European Continent but the whole world. The tools of Communism 2.0 are the same: the brotherhood of man, the new man, social justice, liberation from economic oppression, etc. but those are only the disguises for something more sinister.
Stay awake, be ready Liturgy of Sunday November 30 - first of Advent Dear brothers and sisters, the powerful words used by Jesus in the passage from the Gospel of Matthew we’re going to listen to next Sunday, November 30, first of Advent, should not frighten us, but, on the contrary, fill us with joy. Let's try to figure out why. How often, faced with the injustices that plague the world, our hearts are torn by the question: Why would a good God allow so much suffering, especially innocent suffering? Why He doesn't intervene? Well, the answer to this question is, in its apparently incomprehensibility, extraordinary: God is working on a new creation!! Jesus' warning to stay awake is an invitation not to be afraid by the "night" of evil that makes life on earth "gloomy", but to overcome it with the light of God's Love because it's just from that night that God is going to make the dawn of the new creation arise…
Trump blaming democrats for national guards shot by a 29 yr old afgan immigrant who came to the U.S. under a Trump's program on his first administration for Afgans who helped American soldiers in Afganistan. He stops using the incident as a political weapon after investigations release the facts of how and when the person enter the U.S., now Trump changed the topic, first he uses it to attack the democrat party then after facts come out he stops talking about the incident, he does not even show sympathy towards the guards shot.
Today, Pope Leo XIV prayed with Orthodox and other schismatic Christians in Nicaea, reciting the Niceno-Constantinopolitan Creed in English. The Filioque clause was omitted. They prayed that the Holy Spirit "proceeds from the Father".
Commemorating the 1700th Anniversary of the First Council of Nicaea in the place where it occurred, His Holiness Pope Leo XIV and His All Holiness Bartholomew of Constantinople, lead Christian leaders in reciting the Nicene Creed in English, omitting the Filioque clause.
Pope Leo XIV spent last night at the Apostolic Nunciature in Istanbul, where he celebrated the Eucharist ad orientem in the chapel this morning, as Vatican News reported with a photo.

Quote: "I believe Pope Francis’ Traditionis Custodes was inspired by the Holy Spirit." Now one sees why the modernists HAD to seize the papacy to get the remaining faithful in line!
Today, at the site of ancient Nicaea, Pope Leo XIV joined around 27 other leaders of Christian communities to commemorate the 1700 anniversary of the first Council. Leo XIV thanked the Orthodox Patriarch Bartholomew of Constantinople, for his "great wisdom and foresight" in calling for Church leaders to celebrate this important anniversary together. However, Patriarch Kyrill of Moscow was not invited to the ecumenical prayer. Cardinal Kurt Koch told CruxNow.com ahead of the liturgy: "The Catholics have invited Catholics and the Orthodox invite Orthodox". He added that he respects the "decision of the Orthodox" not to invite the world’s largest Orthodox group. Picture: VaticanNews.va, #newsYaitxdonvz
Koch is spewing more Vatican Non-sense and Bull-Hash. Greek Patriarch Theophilos III of Jerusalem did not attend the Nicene conference in Turkey this week . He did not respond to the invitation from Patriarch Bartholomew, and it was reported that he did not attend, despite having been invited. It was reported that Pope Twardos did not choose to attend Ethiopian Abune Mathias was hand delivered an invitation from Pope Leo by a Bishop, it was also reported that he did not attend. Patriarch Daniel of Bulgaria did not attend. What about his Beatitude Tikhon, Archbishop of Washington, Metropolitan of All America and Canada - did he attend? Did anyone see Patriarch Daniel of Romania? nope - he wears all white, easy to spot.
Holy Presence of our Lord and an age old devotion to the Theotokos are nothing compared to NATO, the EU, and the non-constitutional Anglo-American Zionist genocidal financial order I guess.
From OSV News: Taking the most prestigious archbishop’s seat in the country, the Archbishops’ Palace of Krakow, Cardinal Grzegorz Ryś — one of the most globally recognized Polish owners of the red hat — makes history by becoming the successor of Krakow’s archbishops who reshaped the church in Poland. The Franciszkańska Street palace — once home for Cardinal Karol Wojtyła, the future Pope John Paul II, and Cardinal Adam Sapieha — a steadfast prince who preserved the church in Kraków amid Nazi German terror, was covered in snow as the Vatican announced Pope Leo XIV’s decision Nov. 26 to appoint Cardinal Ryś to Krakow, having him move from Lódź, where he has been archbishop since September 2017. The outgoing Archbishop Marek Jędraszewski, 76, whose resignation was accepted Nov. 26, said it “was a great grace to be the archbishop of Krakow. I am grateful to God for the example of faith of the people who live here,” he said in a packed chapel of the Krakow’s archbishops. From Edward …
