Since 1 September 2025, the Greek Catholic Church in Hungary has omitted the 'Filioque' from the Creed during the Divine Liturgy. This decision to abandon a Catholic tenet in order to appease the schismatic Orthodox was announced on Hd.gorogKatolikus.hu. The article argues that, in recent decades, Pope John Paul II prayed with Orthodox patriarchs, omitting the 'Filioque'. It claims that this change is not an innovation, but a return to a text prayed by ancestors. The current version states that the "Holy Spirit [...] proceeds from the Father". However, this can easily be misunderstood. According to the Western Church, the Holy Spirit proceeds "from the Father and the Son". The Eastern fathers said, what is also legitimately formulated, that he proceeds "from the Father through the Son". However, the Holy Spirit does not proceed from the Father alone. #newsBihsfdbpvh
Pope Leo XIV has appointed Bishop Stephen Andrew Hero, 55, as the new Metropolitan Archbishop of Edmonton, Canada. He previously served as Bishop of Prince Albert. Born on December 19, 1969, in Montréal, he was ordained a priest for the Archdiocese of Edmonton in 2000. In 2021, Pope Francis appointed him Bishop of Prince Albert. Inculturation of Mother-Earth Indigenous Rituals In May 2025, the Catholic Bishops of Saskatchewan – including Bishop Hero – issued a directive on “Liturgy and Inculturation for Indigenous and Métis Celebrations.” It allows drums to be used during the Eucharist with guidance from an Elder. In Indigenous natural religion, drums are considered sacred because the drumbeat symbolizes the heartbeat of “Mother Earth.” Furthermore, the directive allows sweetgrass or sage to be used in place of incense during the Eucharist. Sweetgrass is often referred to as the “hair of Mother Earth” and is therefore regarded as sacred. The indigenious ritual of "Smudging" is also …More
@Mike the Pike@Novena - Oremus I mean anyone who thinks a TLM in St. Peter's without a prior re-consecration is a sign that the tables of Modernism are turning. LifeSite is not in that category as it tries to report on everything relevant, using a journalistic approach. The others mentioned are, sadly, compromised in some way, whether through attachment to Modernism, to money, to notoriety, or to pressure from Zionists.
@Mike the Pike Same question for me. Name names. Do you mean LifeSite? Do you mean Michael Matt? Do you mean Cardinals Müller, Burke, Sarah? Do you mean Taylor Marshall? Who?
“It was another glorious victory for the champions of liberty, equality, and fraternity. Yet Freemasonry had only killed a messenger; they were powerless against the message, and they knew it. Their days were numbered.” from Fatima in Twilight by Mark Fellows. Marmion Publications, Niagra Falls. 2003. Freemasons at Fatima in the 1920’s
@petrus100452... The Archdiocese of Gwangju investigated and declared in 1998 that the events lacked evidence of supernatural origin. Korean bishops have consistently warned against promoting devotion to Naju, citing risks of schism and unauthorized sacramental activity. Automatic excommunication was decreed for clergy or laity participating in sacraments at the Naju shrine without approval
@chris griffin Our Lady in Naju (apparitions to Julia Kim) July 18, 1985:"Prevent abortions (by prayer) and pray for those who carry out abortions." November 5, 1986:"Help me. I cannot appease God the Father's anger without your help. Can you participate in my sufferings? Because of birth control and abortions, I feel extreme pains in my womb. Little lives are roaming about in limbo after having been deprived of their human dignity and treated only as a lump of bloody flesh" July 15, 1987: "My heart is broken because of the unlimited birth control.

This is an article I first published at Ecclesiastical Freemasonry, which has been updated to include the latest insult by Rome directed toward the Mother of God. The Anti-Marian Current at Vatican II
"In the 3rd century BC, King Pyrrhus of Greece went to war against the Romans. Initially, his forces were victorious, but the casualties they sustained were so high that Pyrrhus was unable to win a more decisive later battle. From this historical failure is derived the term, Pyrrhic victory, which has come to mean a victory which is hollow: one which loses more than it gains. "Two thousand years later, Italy is again the scene of a Pyrrhic victory; mainstream traditionalist media is claiming a triumph while also sustaining great losses, both of credibility and of personal integrity." Trad Inc.’s Pyrrhic Victory
That's it: "Two thousand years later, Italy is again the scene of a Pyrrhic victory; mainstream traditionalist media is claiming a triumph while also sustaining great losses, both of credibility and of personal integrity."
Vinicius provides a fascinating insight into medieval Christendom - the model for the reign of Christ the King. "A glance at a map of the world in A.D. 1600 shows every Westernised territory outside Europe as ruled by Phillip III of Castile (Phillip II of Portugal and Aragon); the first “globalism” was Catholic. This was accompanied by economic and scientific expansion (the world eventually adopted Pope Gregory XIII’s 1582 reform of the calendar, for example), striking advances in government administration, and a military revolution that guaranteed Christian Western hegemony." Traditional Pre-Enlightenment Society

The Vatican hosted on October 28 an event to mark 60years of Vatican II's 'Nostra Aetate.' «Le origini [della Kandyan Dance] risalgono ai rituali legati al buddhismo, dove la danza veniva offerta come atto di devozione per portare benedizione, armonia e pace.» → “The origins [of the Kandyan Dance] go back to rituals tied to Buddhism, where the dance was offered as an act of devotion to bring blessing, harmony, and peace.”
"Doorly presents a lucid, incisive and compelling case for criticising various problematic aspects of Council documents and the vernacular liturgy. Aiden Nichols responds with the predictable ambivalent, evasive, neo-conservative and often unsubstantiated apologia for the Hermeneutic of Continuity Thesis. He argues both the controversial documents and the Novus Ordo liturgy are essentially in conformity with Catholic tradition because they are legitimate developments of that tradition." The Council in Question: A brief commentary
The Traditional Catholic Commentaries. “On the errors regarding the union of Church and State. This is related to Christ’s authority over the whole universe: Christ the King. The feast is in October and in December, exactly one hundred years ago, Pius XI published the encyclical which promulgated and Mass of Christ the King and this is the key doctrine that is undermined today, and which was defended by Archbishop Lefebvre and serious traditional Catholics. It’s completely undermined by the current regime in the Vatican, since the Council, and we have to think of the distinction between the principles, on the one hand, and what we can do in the practical order.” Click on the image to watch the video.
Another day, another anti-Catholic promoted in the hierarchy. Behold! This is the Synodal Church which tolerates pagan rituals, heretical and adulterous kings but also TLMs in St. Peter's, so everything is A-OK.
Pope Leo XIV appointed on October 25 Monsignor Jean-Nicolas Rakotojaona, 52, as Coadjutor Bishop of the Diocese of Fianarantsoa, Madagascar. He was ordained a priest for the Archdiocese of Antananarivo on 3 August 2002. Pope Francis appointed him as auxiliary bishop of the Diocese of Morondava in 2023. Theologian trained in Switzerland Between 2011 and 2017, he completed a doctorate in Theology at the University of Fribourg in Switzerland. His thesis is entitled Volonté de 'Fihavanana': Une Comparaison avec l’Observance de la 'Berît' dans le Livre du Deutéronome (Will of 'Fihavanana': A Comparison with the Observance of the 'Berît' in the Book of Deuteronomy). In it, he treats fihavanana (a Malagasy concept of harmony) as a parallel to the biblical covenant (berît), viewing it as a "way of expressing divine relationships". He suggests that biblical interpretation in Madagascar should move directly from the Hebrew text to the Malagasy worldview without mediation through Greco-Latin …More
Important for pro-life work or any other form of apostolate in which Catholics are involved: "Therefore, it is very important to recall frequently this great principle: the interior life is the soul of the apostolate. A deep interior life will generate intense love and intimate union with God, and, therefore, from it will spring a fruitful apostolate, a true sharing in Christ’s work of saving souls; on the other hand, a mediocre interior life can produce only a feeble love and union with God; hence, the resultant apostolate cannot have an efficacious influence on souls." The Soul of the Apostolate
On 16 October, the Italian Bishops’ Conference published their synthesis document for the national synodal journey, titled 'Leaven of Peace and Hope', on ChiesaCattolica.it. It will be voted on by the Third Synodal Assembly of the Churches in Italy on 25 October. The three most ideological quotes are: - Dioceses should commit to promoting the recognition and support of homosexual and transgender individuals, as well as their parents, who are already part of the Christian community, overcoming the discriminatory attitudes sometimes prevalent in ecclesial circles and society. - The Italian Episcopal Conference should support, through prayer and reflection, the 'days' promoted by civil society to oppose all forms of violence and show solidarity with those affected by discrimination (Days against gender violence, discrimination, paedophilia, bullying, femicide, homophobia, transphobia, etc.). - The dioceses should coordinate new programmes for forming relationships and educating people …More
by Pax Orbis contributor, Joseph Bevan. "The ‘problem’ of the Tridentine Mass is going to be solved, one way or another. It has to be, for the obvious reason that the current chaos resulting from Traditiones Custodes is unsatisfactory to everyone. There is no doubt that the ancient rite of Mass divides dioceses, religious orders and parishes. It even internally divides individual clergy as they seek to say both the Novus Ordo and the Old Rite on the same Sunday, causing a type of schizophrenia." Faith, not aesthetics: thoughts on the Latin …
From Pax Orbis contributor, Julia du Fresne: "Carpe diem! When millions around the world are confronted with that visceral choice between God and His ancient enemy, Satan, the Catholic Church must seize the moment and speak the truth, in the media and from pulpits everywhere: “outside the Church there is no salvation”. " Extra Ecclesiam Nulla Salus: outside the Church …
A few Kentish Martyrs For a little break from scandal and controversy, why not refresh your memory of those beautiful souls who inspire us to fight manfully for the reign of Christ the King? A few Kentish martyrs
Joseph Bevan reflects on three Kentish figures who fell victim to royal wrath for their faith and convictions — St Thomas Becket, Elizabeth Barton, and St John Fisher — arguing that their courage and defiance exemplify the stubborn integrity of Kentish Catholics through history. St Thomas Becket (murdered 1170): Archbishop of Canterbury who opposed King Henry II’s interference in Church affairs. After Henry’s infamous outburst (“Will no one rid me of this meddlesome priest?”), four knights brutally murdered Becket in Canterbury Cathedral. His death caused outrage across Europe and led to his canonisation. Though Henry performed penance, Bevan suggests his remorse was insincere, as Becket’s death resolved his problems. Becket’s lavish shrine became a major pilgrimage site until Henry VIII destroyed it. Elizabeth Barton (executed 1534): Known as the “Holy Maid of Kent,” Barton was a servant who began receiving prophetic visions. Initially approved by Church leaders, she later …More
Some hard-to-find talks and sermons by Archbishop Lefebvre have been published on various sites lately, so here is a selection, all in one place. Some rare talks by Archbishop Lefebvre
Leo and the Legacy of the Seamless Garment The Seamless Garment ideology has pervaded the pro-life community over the past decades. It has accompanied the rise of the secular pro-life movement, eschewing religious arguments against abortion and belittling those who admit that humans are unable to defeat attacks on life without the help of God. The term, “Seamless Garment”, takes its cue for a passage in the Gospel of John, which mentions that the soldiers cast lots for Christ’s tunic as it was “without seam, woven from the top throughout.” (John 19:23-24). Its first use is credited to the Catholic pacifist, Eileen Egan and became part of the “consistent life ethic” philosophy that began to permeate the pro-life community during the 1970’s.
Some Catholics were taken by surprise to hear Pope Leo’s opinion of the plan by his friend, Cardinal Cupich, to give a “lifetime achievement award” to a notorious pro-abortion Catholic politician. After all, the majority of the mainstream Traditionalist Catholic media have been assuring faithful Catholics for months that the new pope “needed time” to establish himself and that we should not be too hasty to judge his agenda. Yet the signs have been there all along, from the moment Prevost announced he would follow in Francis’ footsteps, to the day it became known he had praised Bernardin as his inspiration. That alone should have set off alarm bells among the faithful; as will be seen below, Cardinal Bernardin was not a man whom any faithful Catholic would want to emulate. Leo’s Seamless Garment moment When Pope Leo was asked for his opinion of Cardinal Cupich’s decision by a journalist, he didn’t hesitate. The Illinois politician, Dick Durbin, is a known supporter of partial-…
All rights stand on the foundation of the right to life. "Rights" that another (with impunity) can take away by a simple decision to kill you are no rights at all.
ANNOUNCEMENT Friends, I won't be posting any more at my site, Ecclesiastical Freemasonry, having taken on a role at the upcoming site, Pax Orbis. Pax Orbis is a group of traditional Catholics who are dedicated to writing on current affairs (as well as culture and history) in light of the Fatima message. Of your charity, please show this site the same support as you have shown mine over the years. And if you like the content, please subscribe! (Oh yes - they have lots of helpful downloads, too :) ) From now on, I'll be sharing posts from Pax Orbis and here is one example of the articles at this fledgling site: The Errors of Russia Part I
I'm on board and I look forward to your first article! As you know I have been warning Gloriatv readers about the errors of Russia for five years. Dr. Deep State on you tube does a good job breaking them down in terms that indicate both the reds and the blues are victims of these errors! I have firmly believed that out Catholic Faith today hinges upon the message of Our Lady of Fatima! God bless you!
Trad Inc & The Art of War It seems ironic that the same voices that condemn collegiality among the bishops are insisting traditionalist Catholics unite under a milquetoast banner of love, in an effort to secure their Latin Masses. This tactic is flawed and will lead, in some cases, to the most tragic of consequences that can befall a Christian: the loss of his eternal soul. ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2025/09/30/trad- …
