Bishop Marian Eleganti, Switzerland, has rejected the suggestion that an excommunication imposed on the Priestly Fraternity Saint Pius X. (FSSPX) after its planned episcopal consecrations on July 1 could be invalid. Mons Eleganti told TheCatholicHerald.com on March 9 that such arguments misunderstand the nature of schism. Bishop Schneider has suggested in several recent interviews that the excommunications would not be valid because the FSSPX does "not intend" to separate from Rome. Bishop Eleganti replied that the absence of a declared intention to break with the Vatican would not alter the objective nature of the act: “To declare a questionable intention doesn’t help,” Bishop Eleganti said. “That’s a ploy to practise total autonomy while pretending to be in union with the Pope. It is in fact not the case so long as the Pope does not accept or authorise these consecrations.” Key argument: “It’s not about what they claim or declare, but about the facts they create,” Bishop Eleganti …More

On 6 March, the Diocese of El Paso in Texas filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, citing financial pressure from lawsuits relating to alleged clergy sexual abuse dating back several decades. This follows legal action brought under New Mexico’s “lookback law”, which allows survivors to file cases even after the usual statute of limitations has expired. The case comprises 12 lawsuits from 18 individuals who claim they were abused as children between 1956 and 1982 in southern New Mexico. At the time of the alleged incidents, the area was part of the Diocese of El Paso, but it is now part of the Diocese of Las Cruces. In a video statement, Bishop Mark J. Seitz said that the decision to file for bankruptcy had been made after prayer, discernment, and consultation. He explained that the financial claims could far exceed what the diocese can afford. #newsDdockxmxgs
03/11/2026 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. Trump’s ill-considered decision to attack Iran under pressure from a friend of the terrorist has given the world a great gift. It has shown how this declining superpower can be defeated by spending only a fraction of the sum comparable to the wasteful US military budget. Iran does not need to send soldiers to the front to win this war. Because there is no front, and there will be none. It is enough for it to persistently continue its tactics, which in the coming days will lead to the collapse of air defenses in the war zone, especially in Israel. China already knows how to recapture Taiwan. A few hundred drones will disable any American air defense system. The same applies to North Korea. Eighty years of European geopolitics based on the false belief in the effectiveness of the American protective shield complete the picture of a naive policy pursued by countries that will go down with their big brother. No one needs to attack Europe—it can …
The Synod Secretariat today released the report of Study Group 5, which examined the role of women in the Church. The report calls for the expansion of existing instituted ministries for women including lector, acolyte, catechist as well as leadership roles in communities, dioceses and Vatican institutions. Most troubling quotes, slightly paraphrased: - It is necessary to reflect particularly on reformulating the areas of competence of ordained ministry […] Redefining these areas of competence could open recognition of new spaces of responsibility for women in the Church. (page 12) - There are no reasons that prevent women from assuming leadership roles in the Church. It is important to reiterate that there is nothing, in the mere fact of being a woman, that prevents assuming roles of leadership in the Church. (page 13) - Every Curial institution carries out its mission by virtue of authority received from the Roman Pontiff. The primatial authority of the Roman Pontiff can be delegated …More
Same maure as always. I’m really getting fed up with the church. I have lost all my friends over this because I refuse to pay fealty to the satanic religion these people propose. There are no answers but to just wait and see.
11.03.2025 POPE LEO AGREES WITH ME : NO DENIAL FROM THE HOLY SEE PRESS OFFICE Pope Leo agrees with me. Lumen Gentium 16 is a hypothetical case while Ad Gentes 7 is aligned with the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus (EENS) and the Athanasius Creed. LG 8, 14, 16 etc are not explicit exceptions for AG 7, EENS etc. Vatican Council II is ecclesiocentric and traditional with the hermeneutic of continuity with the Syllabus of Pius IX and the Catechisms of Baltimore, Pius X and Trent. The lex orandi is Feeneyite and not Cushingite. There is no denial from Paulo Ruffini the Prefect of the Dicastery for Communications and neither from Archbishop Rino Fisichella pro-prefect for the New Evangelization Section of the Dicastery for Evangelization. Cardinals Cupich, Roche, Zuppi, Baldasarre, Hollerich, Grech, Radcliffe and McElroy agree with me. LG 16 refers to a physically invisible case in 2026. This changes the present interpretation of Vatican Council II. The books on Vatican Council II by Rino …More
Even bishops Fellay and Galaratta of the SSPX agree with me. What about you ? Does Lumen Gentium 16, being saved in invincible ignorance , refer to an invisible case in 2026 for you ? If your answer is YES then you also are on the same wavelength.
800 million people—roughly 10% of the world's population—now require biometric identification just to receive their monthly food rations. Fingerprints or facial scans are NOW mandatory at India's fair price shops, as digital ID systems like BritCard and the EU's Digital Wallet are being rolled out to support the technocrat's goal of a fully tokenized, blockchain-tracked food supply chains.
The report explicitly rejects endorsing women deacons, stating (p. 6) that “the question of women’s access to the diaconate did not yet appear sufficiently mature” per Pope Francis himself; it remains unresolved and not ready for change.
Today, Leo XIV made two linked appointments in Pakistan, involving a strange exchange of dioceses between two prelates. Monsignor Khalid Rehmat has become the Archbishop of Lahore. He had previously served as Apostolic Vicar of Quetta. Archbishop Sebastian Francis Shaw, who was previously Archbishop of Lahore, is the new Apostolic Vicar of Quetta. Lahore is the most important Catholic archdiocese in Pakistan with 500,000 Catholics. Quetta has 34,000 Catholics. Allegations of Fraud, Nepotism, Abuse Monsignor Shaw had led Lahore since 2013, before being removed from active leadership in 2024. In August 2024, the Vatican forced him to step aside temporarily. The investigation involved serious accusations, including financial corruption, the misuse of church property, nepotism, and allegations of sexual misconduct. The Vatican's investigation has never been publicly concluded with a judgment. Appreciate and Celebrate the Diverse Religions His successor, Archbishop Rehmat, had only become …More

The monks of Notre-Dame de la Grande Trappe in Soligny-la-Trappe, Normandy, have announced that they are considering leaving the abbey by around 2028. Today, only around 12 ageing monks remain in a monastery originally built for nearly 100 monks. The La Trappe community cannot afford the enormous cost of maintaining the historic buildings. A restoration project estimated to cost €12 million failed to secure funding. Founded around 1140 as a Cistercian abbey, La Trappe became the birthplace of the Trappist tradition. In 1664, Abbot Armand-Jean de Rancé introduced strict reforms to Cistercian monastic life. In 1892, the Trappist congregations formally separated from the Cistercian Order to form a new order known today as the Order of Cistercians of the Strict Observance (OCSO). Currently, the monks are discussing the possibility of relocating the small community to a more manageable site. This situation reflects a broader reality: Trappist communities in Europe are increasingly struggling …More
Perhaps their lady Prefect has the solution to turn around their decline. Since female rulership is the going thing in the Church now. Let’s see how such an experiment works.
Fr. Ripperger is a brilliant and solid Thomistic philosopher and theologian. However, I disagree with his constant revelations concerning what transpires during exorcisms in which he has participated. Exorcists should neither be seen nor heard. He's feeding a morbid interest in the preternatural, while exhibiting a strange mistrust in the veracity of the demons he frequently cites. Also, despite the headline in this post, he inexplicably denies there exists a state of necessity in the Church (and in a recent interview with Shawn Ryan, denies that the rot goes to the "top" of the Church) - and is deeply opposed to the SSPX.
Donald Trump has appointed Erika Kirk, the widow of murdered rightwing activist Charlie Kirk, to a key advisory board of the US Air Force Academy. The 37-year-old joins a number of other loyalists to the president on the 16-member panel of the academy’s board of visitors, which according to its website “inquires into the morale, discipline, curriculum, instruction, physical equipment, fiscal affairs, academic methods and other matters” of the Colorado Springs military training facility. Kirk’s husband, who was shot and killed in September during a speaking engagement at Utah Valley University, was appointed by Trump to the board a year earlier and served until his death. There was no official announcement by the academy of his widow’s elevation, which was reported on Tuesday by the Hill and other political news outlets. But her name has already been added to the list of members as one of Trump’s current five appointees, with one slot vacant. Other people appointed by the …
Charlie's assassination was designed to introduce Erika as vice presidential running mate with RT Vance. She will be like Trump because she will not be able to say the name Jesus. She gets a nystagmus when she says our Lord's name. The internet will also have to be scrubbed of images of RT Vance with eyeliner.
