Leo XIV Backs Liturgical Program after 'Traditionis Custodes'
Leo XIV has sent a message to Cardinal Arthur Roche, Prefect of the Dicastery for Divine Worship. The occasion is a meeting at Mount Angel Abbey in Oregon devoted to liturgical formation. Dated June 29, the brief message was published today in the Vatican bulletin.
The text appears to reinforce Cardinal Roche’s recent statement that Leo XIV does not intend to abolish Traditionis Custodes.
Leo XIV calls for respect for “the rites promulgated by Pope Saint Paul VI and Pope Saint John Paul II.” He adds that this respect must spring from “sincere fidelity to ecclesial communion.”
Furthermore, Leo XIV relies heavily on Francis’ 2022 Apostolic Letter Desiderio Desideravi, quoting it several times. That document was closely connected to the post Traditionis Custodes liturgical program and contains a strong defence of the post-Vatican II reform.

AI IS IN THE BIBLE: What's Hidden in the Book of Genesis about AI

Netanyahu declared the following: “In the last three years, through joint efforts, we have prevented the destruction of the Third Temple…Together, with the help of God, we will ensure the eternity of Israel.” Netanyahu seems to be equating the “Third Temple” with the State of Israel, which he speaks of as “eternal.”

Mother Miriam has done a complete 180 on the SSPX: "God has established His Church, his universe, everything on obedience, everything on obedience. Children are to obey their parents, not if their parents are holy and right, in everything but sin. Wives are to submit to their husbands, not because they're holy, not because they're right, but because God has given them that position — again, in everything but sin. Religious are to obey their superiors, whether their superior is right or holier than them, or no matter what it is, they are to obey in everything. And Christ's sheep, which is us, every one of us is to obey the successor of Peter, whether we know for sure he is, whether we agree with him, whether we can point out definite heresy. If he's the Pope, then we obey in everything but sin. We don't come against him. So that's where I left it yesterday, and my heart was completely converted."

Amazonian Rite to Be Introduced This Year
The "Amazonian Rite" will begin an "experimental phase" at the end of 2024 for three years, until 2028.
This was announced by Rev. Agenor Brighenti, Brazilian priest and coordinator of the theological team of the Latin American Episcopal Council CELAM talking to VidaNuevaDigital.com (August 31). Brighenti is in favour of [invalidly] ordaining women and abolishing priestly celibacy.
Since 2020, 13 commissions have been created to invent an Amazonian Rite.
During the next three years, first the dioceses, then the bishops' conferences, and then the Vatican will sign off on this made-up liturgy.
Rev. Brighenti hopes that "it will be accepted and approved by the Church so that the ecclesial communities can express their [sic!] faith according to their culture and customs in this immense territory of the Amazon."
The Amazon Rite is not yet known but it will be similar to the Mayan Rite in Mexico or the Zairean Rite in Africa.
Meanwhile, Francis is …

Francisco Palau y Quer was born December 29, 1811, under the sign of the crises that scourge our world today. His parents were small landowners on the outskirts of Aytona, a village in the prosperous region of Catalonia, Spain.
The family home was imbued with piety and age-old customs developed over generations of faith and work in a milieu brimming with genuine popular culture.
Francisco's birthplace was in occupied territory however. Napoleon had invaded Spain and was trying to implement by force the false ideals of the French Revolution.
Aytona was under the boot of French soldiers led by Colonel Henriot, headquartered …

Why the SSPX Has No Time for +Vigano

Catholic Church Distances Self From Pope Francis
WORLD — After a series of shocking unbiblical statements from the Supreme Pontiff, the Catholic Church officially distanced itself from Pope Francis.
"Honestly, we're not sure how this guy got in here to begin with," said a spokesperson for the Vatican. "We think there was some kind of mistake with the vote counting or something. It's weird. It's possible we accidentally elected some guy off the street who never read a Bible and he's been kissing babies and determining our theology for years. Boy, wouldn't that be embarrassing!"
Sources from the Vatican confirmed that they are convening to discuss what to do with Francis, and whether they can replace him without causing a schism in the Roman Catholic church.
"Whatever we do, we should probably get rid of this guy and find someone qualified," said the spokesperson. "Yesterday, I asked him what his favorite Psalm was and he said 'Piano Man.' This is not good."
At publishing time, Francis …

Is He Afraid? "I Like To Think That Hell Is Empty"
"What I'm about to say is not a dogma of faith, but something I personally believe: I like to think that hell is empty. I hope that's the reality!"
Francis said this during the Italian television programme Che tempo che fa on 14 January. If hell is empty, then Francis, his cardinals, the Vatican, his Church, the sacraments and the Gospel are useless and can go to hell.
Asked about his homosexual pamphlet Fiducia supplicans, Francis said: "The Lord [= the devil] blesses everyone, everyone, everyone" [e.g. Nazis, racists, paedophiles].
He proclaimed that he wants to take those who proudly engage in homosexual sins "by the hand" (sic) and "not condemn them from the start".
Francis believes that confessors are called to "forgive everything [without repentance]". In his 54 years as a priest, he once refused to give absolution "because of the hypocrisy of the person". Indeed, Francis knows something about hypocrisy.
For Francis, the Lord [=…

Pope Defends Same-Sex Blessings, Claims He’s Misunderstood
Pope Francis on Sunday defended a landmark decision approving blessings for same-sex couples, suggesting that those in the Catholic Church who have resisted it have jumped to "ugly conclusions" because they do not understand it.

Pope Francis on Sunday defended a landmark decision approving blessings for same-sex couples, suggesting that those in the Catholic Church who have resisted it have jumped to “ugly conclusions” because they do not understand it.
In a television interview, Francis made his first public comments since the Dec. 18 declaration sparked widespread debate in the Church, with bishops in some countries, particularly in Africa, refusing to let their priests implement it.
“Sometimes decisions are not accepted, but in most cases when decisions are not accepted, it is because they are not …

Schönborn: Homosexuals Have Right to Be Accepted
Falsifying the Catechism on homosexuality, e.g. removing the qualification "disordered", could be decided by Francis, Vienna's Cardinal Schönborn claimed at the Ex-Synod press conference (23 October, video sequence below). The Catechism merely repeats the Bible's assessment of homosexuality ("abomination", "unnatural sin that cries out to heaven for vengeance"). Francis is not above the Bible.
Schönborn invented a gap between the objective given order and the subjective culpability of a sinner.
The Church must respect and accompany every sinner with his or her limitations and history, he indulged in truisms: "One has a right to respect, one has a right to a basic acceptance as a person." This is true, but "respect" and "acceptance" do not mean that the truth about homosexual sins can be manipulated.
Schönborn is known for his entanglement in homosexual circles.

Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
We, members of the Sacred College of Cardinals, in accord with the duty of all the faithful “to manifest to the sacred pastors their opinion on matters which pertain to the good of the Church” (can. 212 § 3) and, above all, in accord with the responsibility of Cardinals “to assist the Roman Pontiff … individually … especially in the daily care of the universal Church” (can. 349), in view of various declarations of highly-placed Prelates, pertaining to the celebration of the next Synod of Bishops, that are openly contrary to the constant doctrine and discipline of the Church, and that have generated and continue to generate great confusion and the falling into error among the faithful and other persons of good will, have manifested our deepest concern to the Roman Pontiff. By our letter of …

Schneider: Heretical Pope Doesn’t Lose Office
There is no authority to declare an elected and generally accepted Pope as invalid, Bishop Athanasius Schneider wrote on RemnantNewspaper.com (September 18).
Even an invalid election would be de facto healed through the acceptance of the overwhelming majority of cardinals and bishops.
A heretical pope would not lose his office automatically. There is no body within the Church to declare him deposed for heresy: “Such actions would come close to a kind of a heresy of conciliarism or episcopalism.”
The theory of the automatic loss of the papacy due to heresy is a mere opinion that theologians such as St Robert Bellarmin noticed, “Never in history the Magisterium of the Church did admit any canonical procedures of deposition of a heretical pope.”
In the case of a heretical pope, the members of the Church can “avoid him, resist him, refuse to obey him.”
The situation of a heretical pope is humanly irresolvable and needs a “Divine intervention.” …

Bishop Schneider: Catholics ‘cannot obey’ if the Synod on Synodality issues false teachings - LifeSite
In a wide-ranging Questions and Answers interview with Christopher P. Wendt on the Confraternity of Our Lady of Fatima forum on September 13, Bishop Schneider hit out at the hidden intentions behind the current Synod on Synodality norms and the impact they will have in undermining the hierarchical structure of the Church. He was firm on the subject of doctrinal novelties the Synod might introduce.
“We have a very clear answer,” Schneider said. “We cannot obey here because these would be against the Divine revelation, against Divine commandment, and in this case, we have to follow God clearly [in] the constant teaching of the Church.”
When asked by Wendt if there is anything faithful Catholics can do beyond fasting and prayer to oppose the Synod on Synodality and minimize its expected damage to the faith and divine institution, Schneider said: “I think we have to profess publicly the …

Schneider To Strickland, !Future Popes Will Thank You!
Bishop Schneider sent a letter of support to Tyler Bishop Joseph Strickland on August 2, acknowledging his “intrepid dedication to uncompromisingly keep, transmit, and defend the Catholic faith.”
He applies to Strickland a quote from St Basil (+379), who wrote to Pope Damasus asking for help because "the one charge that is now sure to secure severe punishment is the careful keeping of the traditions of the Fathers.”
Basil added that “the more a man blasphemes, the fitter the people think him to be a bishop” and that “clerical dignity is a thing of the past.” Schneider says that we live in similar times.
While Basil could turn to Pope Damasus for help, Strickland doesn't have that option, Schneider analyses, “On the contrary, the Holy See put you now under scrutiny and threatens you with intimidations and deprivation of the episcopal care of your flock in Tyler, basically only for the one reason, that you, like St. Basil, St. Athanasius …

Homosexualist Bergoglio Defends Homosex Regime
Francis believes laws that protect society from homosexual acts are "unjust" and that the Church should work to put an end to them (APnews.com, 25 January).
"She has to do that. She has to do this," he rambled. "Being homosexual is not a crime. It's not a crime. Yes it is, it is a sin."
Such laws are common in most parts of the world like Africa or the Middle East, but Francis believes bishops who support them have to go through a process of "conversion" to perversion.
Francis wants bishops to promote homosexuality in the Church, too. He selectively quotes the Catechism, but the Catechism recognises that homosexual acts are of grave depravity, an inherent evil and an abomination that cries out to heaven for vengeance.
Experience teaches that the decriminalisation of homosexual acts is only a first step, to be followed by the legalisation of homosexual pseudo-marriage, homosexual adoption, homosexual corruption of minors and homosexual ideology …
