Several anonymous cardinals and curial officials told the Substack.com account The Pillar on April 17 that they do not expect any resolution to the question of the Mass in the Roman rite in the near future. Some Catholics had hoped the next extraordinary consistory of cardinals on June 26–27 would address the liturgical issue. Instead, Leo XIV chose to focus on Francis' document Evangelii Gaudium. One Vatican official said that Leo XIV was not very familiar with traditional communities or even the traditional liturgy, and that his primary concern was not liturgy but whether members of those communities accept the Second Vatican Council. As early as June 2025, the best friend of Leo XIV, Alejandro Moral, Prior General of the Augustinians, had already ruled out any return of the older form of the Mass under his pontificate. #newsVdgrmnvwkv
Paul VI killed the Old Mass; JP II gave it a tiny life; Benedict opened it up greatly, saying it had never really been officially done away with; Francis tried to kill it; Leo seems happy with Francis's decision. Zigzag, zigzag, what is the layman to think? "Officer, the light was green when I went through it." "Well, it's red now and you are in trouble." Why should the laity respect the governance of the Church?
The International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) states that it works to help "people better remember, understand, and learn about the Holocaust and genocide of the Roma so that we can build a world without genocide." They also want to prevent antisemitism. The Alliance claims this needed to help fight the evils of antisemitism and Holocaust denial. This is their definition of antisemitism: Antisemitism is a certain perception of Jews, which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews. Rhetorical and physical manifestations of antisemitism are directed toward Jewish or non-Jewish individuals and/or their property, toward Jewish community institutions and religious facilities. The IHRA also posts "examples of antisemitism in public life, the media, schools, the workplace, and in the religious sphere..." Here they are: Calling for, aiding, or justifying the killing or harming of Jews in the name of a radical ideology or an extremist view of religion. Making mendacious, dehumanizing, …
Cardinal Reinhard Marx of Munich, Germany, has instructed priests and pastoral staff to perform "blessings" for homosexual couples and adulterers. A spokesperson confirmed to Die-Tagespost.de on 21 April that all pastoral practice should adhere to the German bishops' guideline, Segen gibt der Liebe Kraft ('Blessing Gives Love Strength'). This guideline is set to become a fundamental element of pastoral work across the Archdiocese of Munich. Training sessions for pastoral staff on how to conduct these "blessing ceremonies" are scheduled to begin in June. No couple seeking a blessing should be turned away. Priests who reject such "blessings" are expected to refer couples to either their dean or other pastoral workers willing to perform them. Furthermore, Cardinal Marx has urged that the "theological meaning" of the guideline be explained, particularly to those who may "still" struggle with the concept of such "blessings". Blessings for same-sex couples are already common practice in …More
Remember there is always those who hate the truth and are liberals, commies etc. RT was banned from countries including the US years ago because of the truth they told. Which they don't want us to know. They don't understand that truth can not be hidden. Propaganda will be destroyed. They banned RT everywhere. From fakebook to youtube to google, aol and all others. In the UK< US, and most Western countries who hate the truth. They can try to bury it, but won't get far because GOD Will not allow truth to be suppressed. At least not for all time.
The Italian Communist Party (notoriously a cell of the USSR, directly financed with Kremlin funds). «For millions of Italians, from the end of the Second World War through the 1980s, personal identity was rooted in the Communist Party and its symbolism: “Sono comunista” (I am a Communist) was a statement not only of people’s political allegiance but of their core identity. For many, being identified as Communist was more salient and more satisfying than being identified as Italian.»
Far-left activist Luca Casarini states on his Facebook account that Prevost has not changed direction. "You have come a long way, Brother Robert. But you have not changed direction," Casarini commented in his post.
"Nowadays, preachers and congregations are so shallow that if a sermon is not full of polished and studied phrases, and a dash of novelty, they are too critical to take any notice of it. So in order that the word of the Lord should come to them in a way they will not disdain or scorn, to the peril of their souls, I have prefaced each gospel with a suitable prologue, and included in the work itself illustrations drawn from physics and natural history, and explanations of the meanings of words, expounded from the standpoint of morality."
[Saint Anthony of Padua, XII-XIII Century, Lisbon, Kingdom of Portugal/Padua, Lombard League, Holy Roman Empire (aged 35), Portuguese Catholic priest and member of the Order of Friars Minor, Doctor of the Church, Canonized less than one year after his death, Doctor Evangelicus] “ST. ANTONY'S GENERAL PROLOGUE 1. According to the First Book of Chronicles, David gave the purest gold: to make the likeness of the chariot of the cherubims, spreading their wings and veiling the ark of the covenant of the Lord. [1 Chron 28.18] 2. Genesis speaks of The land of Hevilath, where gold groweth, and the gold of that land is very good. [Gen 2.11-12] The name Hevilath is supposed to mean ‘bringing forth’. It stands for Holy Scripture, which is The earth [which] of itself bringeth forth fruit, first the blade, then the ear, afterwards the full corn in the ear.[Mk 4.28] By the blade we understand the allegorical sense of Scripture, which builds up faith in accordance with the words: Let the earth bring …More
Amid growing controversy over the future of the Valley of the Fallen, Spain’s Minister of the Presidency, Félix Bolaños, has defended Cardinal José Cobo of Madrid. Bolaños told LaSexta.com that the plan to secularise the religious site was not the cardinal's initiative, but the result of an agreement reached directly with the Vatican. He emphasised that no personal deal had been made with Cobo, who has faced significant pressure from Catholics over the issue. The minister also said that the Vatican is fully committed to transforming the Valley from a monastery into a site of "democratic memory". Addressing divisions within the Catholic Church, Bolaños described it as a 'plural organisation', while criticising more traditional sectors that oppose the transformation and suggesting that they are out of step with 'contemporary society'. He also placed the “re-signification” of the Valley within a broader set of negotiations between the Spanish government and the Church, covering issues …More
The Valley of the Fallen is the equivalent of Arlington National Cemetery in Virgina. The main difference is that priests live in the monastery that is there and the edifice is large and quite awesome to behold.
04/21/2026 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. First, a brief comparison. In history class, we learned about a Mongol ruler from the turn of the 12th to the 13th century: the ruthless conqueror of half the world, Genghis Khan. His wars claimed the lives of 40 million people at the time—that is 11.11% of the entire known world population. Today I asked “Google Intelligence” the following question: How did Genghis Khan treat envoys? The answer surprised me greatly: Genghis Khan treated envoys with the utmost respect, and their protection was a fundamental principle of Mongol law and strategy. The most important aspects of this topic are listed below: Absolute inviolability: The killing of an envoy (ambassador) was considered one of the gravest acts of hostility, which typically led to merciless revenge and the complete destruction of the state that had committed such an act; The Jam System (Jaam): Genghis Khan established an efficient courier system (Jam) that enabled messengers to travel …
For those who keep refusing the truth. I will also leave a link from an Israel post as well. Which I didn't care to do. Especially from the source I am leaving. That way for others to condemn RT without reading it, will know it's also said in Israel. timesofisrael.com/…oying-jesus-statue-in-lebanon-…
Israel is two faced like trump. Condemning one of their soldiers for smashing a Crucifix while they bomb and kill Christians. No doubt they say they are outraged but no surprise if he is rewarded in secret.
Gänswein is desperately seeking approval from his Bergoglian masters. He is their weapon to fake their continuity with Pope Benedict and weaken trad opposition. Frankly, I have no idea why Gloria tv writes about that poor man

A major Ukrainian drone attack on Russia's Black Sea port of Tuapse sparked a fire and killed at least one person, Russian officials said, just hours after a blaze was doused in the wake of a similar attack on April 16.

Entire Lithuania checks this newsfeed every morning and approves greatly these sights of burning Russia infractructure. Not because we glee over the suffering of Russians as the nation, but because it's the only way to stop these killers. They have been atheistic and country for more than 100 years - and imperialistic even more, and they are the mortal enemy of every country around it. It would be best for it to fall apart - this „prison of nations". Then - let's hope so, Russia will convert to catholicism.

Cardinal Frank Leo, the metropolitan archbishop of Toronto yesterday sent a letter "to Prime Minister Carney and all federal Members of Parliament (MPs) in the Archdiocese of Toronto asking for their support of Bill C-218 and decrying the rapid expansion of euthanasia and assisted suicide in Canada. Bill C-218 is a private members’ bill currently before Parliament that would amend the Criminal Code to prevent Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) from being provided when mental illness is the sole underlying condition. Without this change, MAiD will be available for those suffering from mental illness alone beginning in March 2027." The terrible law itself needs to be stopped. Since euthanasia was legalized in Canada in 2016, over 20,000 Canadians have been killed. Abortion kills 100,000 unborn babies each year, all paid for by Canada Health. Did you know that the yearly number of deaths in Canada will soon surpass the number of births? There is no future of any kind in that coming …
