“Homosexual Acts Are Particularly Detestable in God’s Sight”: Cardinal Joseph Zen, 94, of Hong Kong wrote on his blog on July 27 about the evil forces that tempt us, including the inclinations of the flesh. “Of course, ethics and morality aren't just about the Sixth and Ninth Commandments, but sins of this kind are the easiest to become addicted to. Especially those LGBTQ sins - they utterly violate the Creator's plan for humanity.” Cardinal Zen added that homosexual acts are “not only called sin in the Bible but are an Abomination (particularly detestable) in God's sight.” He also writes: “The merciful God also rained down fire to destroy Sodom.”

That under Pope Francis "certain difficulties and troubles became evident" is "undeniable." So said Archbishop Georg Gänswein, who turns 70 on Thursday, in an interview published by Katholisch.de on July 27. Monsignor Gänswein believes Leo XIV recognizes these problems and is addressing them. In Germany, the chief concern of Monsignor Gänswein remains the "Synodal Way": "The tensions surrounding the Synodal Way and various initiatives that break away from the Catholic faith continue to exist and await a final resolution. For many Catholics in Germany who simply want to live their faith, this is a millstone around their neck." Contradicting his own criticism, however, Archbishop Gänswein said he has "a good impression" of the new president of the German bishops' conference, Bishop Heiner Wilmer of Münster. He is a leading supporter of and affirmative voter for the German Synodal Way. #newsWbfhggjvyv
“My concern centres on that unwieldy term, the ‘Synodal Path’,” Archbishop Gänswein said. “Fruitless debates about structures and similar issues tie up vital energy in the wrong areas.”

A 31-year-old Polish man, identified by regional media as Bartłomiej Włodzimierz Krakowiak, has been arrested for vandalizing the Marian shrine of Medjugorje during the night of 27–28 July, just days before Mladifest, which is expected to attract around 50,000 young pilgrims.
