Spanish authorities — the Catalan ombudsman and the Parliament of Catalonia — are investigating allegations that Jesuit priests accused of sexual abuse were transferred from Spain to Bolivia. The inquiry began in 2023 with cases in Barcelona and expanded in 2026 after complaints from Bolivia. It will examine when, how, and why these transfers occurred, and whether the Jesuit order bears institutional responsibility. Catalonia is the “mother province” controlling the Bolivian mission. Victims’ groups allege that Bolivia was used as a “dumping ground” for pedophile or homosexual priests. In 2024, Catalan Jesuits acknowledged 145 allegations of sexual abuse since 1948. Internal correspondence indicates Jesuit superiors were aware that some priests continued abusing after being transferred. Legal proceedings in Bolivia have led to convictions for "coverin up" abuse: in 2025, two former Jesuit provincials were found guilty. Examples of abusive Jesuits in Bolivia are: Francesc Peris (Padre …More
8. April 2026 8. April 2026 04/08/2026 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. The WSO—a weapons systems officer with the rank of colonel—was rescued in a large-scale operation by the U.S. Army after finding himself in a dire situation following his ejection from an F-15E fighter jet shot down by Iranian forces. Such an operation is easy to sell in the media by showing how the U.S. Army fights to save every single life—naturally, those of its own soldiers. Officers with a rank below lieutenant or, at most, captain are typically deployed for missions in fighter jets. This time was different. Not only the officer’s rank, but also the location of the mission—near the suspected site where Iran stores its stockpile of enriched uranium—suggest other, hidden objectives for this mission. No, it wasn’t a “rescue mission.” It was supposed to be a large-scale surprise attack—but it walked straight into an Iranian ambush. Much like Operation “Eagle Claw” in 1980, this one also ended in a spectacular …
Since the French Revolution, there has been a systematic genocide of opponents of this communist ideology. The French Revolution was a period of systematic state violence, civil wars, and massacres on political and religious grounds. The violence affected all social classes—from the aristocracy, through the clergy, to peasants and townspeople. Methods included the guillotine, mass shootings, drowning, burning alive, and even executions by artillery. The Bolsheviks in Russia and the Nazis in Germany had a wide selection of methods of killing people perfected during the French Revolution. The descendants of the revolutionaries brought the methods of killing to perfection. Annually, they kill 73 million unborn children, which brings them the greatest satisfaction, because it resembles—or one could even say—replicates the crime of Judas: the spilling of innocent blood. About 200,000 people dying annually in armed conflicts is just an addition. We must not forget euthanasia. Over all these …More
A CALL TO REVERENCE AND TRUTH In recent days, an Easter message from President Donald Trump has drawn attention – not because of its clarity in proclaiming the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, but because of language that was careless, irreverent, and theologically confused. This must be addressed – not as a matter of politics, but as a matter of truth. Easter Sunday is the holiest day in the Christian calendar. It is the day on which the Church proclaims with unwavering certainty that Jesus Christ, true God and true Man, rose from the dead. Death was conquered. Sin was defeated. The gates of Heaven were opened. This is not a day for casual speech. It is not a day for vulgarity. And it is not a day for confusion about who God is. When coarse or profane language is used in reference to so sacred a mystery, it reveals something deeper than a momentary lapse – it reflects a loss of the sense of the sacred. And when religious language is blended carelessly, as though all expressions of belief …More
Fr. Christopher Basden draws on his Middle East upbringing to challenge mainstream narratives about Iran, Israel, and the push toward war. He argues that claims of imminent threats mirror past justifications like the Iraq War, while deeper conflicts over Palestine and geopolitical interests continue to fuel instability. The discussion highlights the human cost of war, including displacement, destruction, and the suffering of Christian communities. Criticism is directed at Western Church leaders for inconsistent responses to these crises. Despite the turmoil, Fr. Basden points to growing awareness and enduring faith as signs of hope.

This is the definitive “Whole Picture,” the terminal evolution of the system we have deconstructed—a global architecture of blood, debt, and digital sorcery—viewed through the uncompromising prophetic lens of Father Herman Bernard Kramer’s The Book of Destiny. ## I. The Trinity of the Counterfeit: The Seat of the Beast The world is not governed by states, but by a Triune Altar that mirrors the Holy Trinity in a demonic parody. Father Kramer identifies this as the "Beast from the Sea"—a corporate, political, and spiritual monolith. This structure is the institutional embodiment of the "Abomination," operating through three sovereign hubs that exist outside the laws of the "smaller people." * The City of London (The Finance-Baal): This is the High Altar of Ownership. Here, the "High Priests" of banking have perfected the art of "converting captured into killed." In Kramer's blueprint, the financial system is the "lifeblood" of the Beast. By controlling the money flow, London has …More
Few people know that for years before he became pope, Robert Prevost met most Saturdays with Francis inside the Casa Santa Marta. And in the final weeks of his life, from a hospital bed at Gemelli, Francis elevated him to the highest rank of cardinal — the act that placed him at the center of the conclave that would soon elect him pope.

Make A One-Time Gift to Support My Work Pope Leo XIV teared up this morning. Standing at the Apostolic window at the Vatican on Easter Monday, the American pope paused mid-sentence as he tried to describe the man who had summoned him from a small diocese on Peru’s northern coast and, in the final weeks of his life, made him one of the few cardinal bishops in the Catholic Church. The man he was mourning was Pope Francis, who died on Easter Monday last year — April 21, 2025 — after twelve years of upending the Church and infuriating the powerful. The official anniversary of his death falls in just over two weeks, but Leo will not be in Rome to mark it. He will be in Africa, on the second major papal voyage of his young pontificate, carrying the Gospel to a continent Francis loved and visited often. So this morning’s tribute …
A Finnish study has found that psychiatric morbidity increased over time among adolescents who underwent "gender reassignment". Published in Acta Paediatrica and led by Professor Riittakerttu Kaltiala, the research followed more than 2,000 young people referred to gender identity programs, alongside over 16,000 matched controls, with follow-up extending up to 25 years. The study includes hormones and/or organ mutilations. It is a nationwide observational study, not a randomized trial. Among those who received medical interventions: - Psychiatric morbidity rose from 9.8% to 60.7% in individuals undergoing feminising treatments. - It rose from 21.6% to 54.5% in those undergoing masculinising treatments. The study reports that psychiatric morbidity remained substantially elevated over time. Even after accounting for prior psychiatric history, "gender-referred" adolescents showed substantially higher psychiatric morbidity than matched peers. Nearly 48% had already received specialist …More
Do you recognize any of these bizarre (but common) rituals in your daily life? I'm talking about waiting in ridiculously long lines, purchasing "must have" consumer goods with pagan logos, or wearing face diapers whenever a cold comes along.

For those who do not know yet, the Lipa apparitions began on September 12, 1948, when a 21-year-old postulant named Sr. Teresita began to have visions of Mary in the garden of Lipa Carmel Monastery in Batangas, Philippines. Mary is said to have appeared to her on a cloud, dressed in simple white robe with a small belt and a golden Rosary hanging on her right hand. Our Lady appeared to Sr. Teresita for 15 consecutive days in the garden and gave her messages about loving one another, simplicity, humility, obedience, penance and sacrifices, prayers for the priests and religious, and to pray the Rosary every day with devotion. OurLady also reminded us that Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, pointing us all to go to or return to Jesus. In addition to the apparitions, there were also showers of rose petals and some, later on, were found to have imprints of religious images. On the last day of the apparition, Our Lady said: “I AM MARY, MEDIATRIX OF ALL GRACE.” The ALL GRACE is …More
April 1 ~ ST. HUGH, BISHOP IT was the happiness of this Saint to receive from his cradle the strongest impressions of piety by the example and care of his illustrious and holy parents. He was born at Chateau-neuf, in the territory of Valence in Dauphine, in 1053. His father, Odilo, who served his country in an honorable post in the army, labored, by all the means in his power, to make his soldiers faithful servants of their Creator, and by severe punishments to restrain vice. By the advice of his son, St. Hugh, he afterwards became a Carthusian monk, and died at the age of a hundred, having received extreme unction and the viaticum from the hands of his son. Our Saint likewise assisted, in Tier last moments, his mother, who had for many years, under his direction, served God in her own house, by prayer, fasting, and plenteous alms-deeds. Hugh, from the cradle, appeared to be a child of benediction. He went through his studies with great applause, and having chosen to serve God in an …More
"/Saint Francis of Paola/ A famous preacher, instigated by a few misguided monks, set to work to preach against St. Francis and his miracles. The Saint took no notice of it, and the preacher, finding that he made no way with his hearers, determined to see this poor hermit, and confound him in person. The Saint received him kindly, gave him a seat by the fire, and listened to a long exposition of his own frauds. He then quietly took some glowing embers from the fire, and closing his hands upon them unhurt, said, “ Come, Father Anthony, warm yourself, for you are shivering for want of a little charity.” The story of a wonder: the iconic San Francesco di Paola crossing the Strait of Messina on his overcoat
