Worse than Germany: On 13 September, Rev Olivier de Pétiville held a Novus Ordo spectacle at the Sainte-Blandine church in Lyon, France. He has been in this parish since 1 September. The Eucharist featured contemporary praise music, singers and musicians, large screens, a headset microphone, and congregants raising their hands. Only karaoke was missing.
Un fidèle sort enthousiaste d’une célébration de l’église Saint Blandine de Lyon : « Une messe incroyable », écrit-il sur Facebook.
An anonymous seminarian writing from Lima, Peru, paints a picture of Catholic life that is worse than Germany: seminaries and convents “dramatically empty,” kneelers removed from churches, Communion distributed in the hands, children’s Masses with puppets and dolls, and national Catholic youth gatherings with secular music. He describes priests becoming “community entertainers” and homilies reduced to superficial, lukewarm messages. He criticizes liturgies centered on creativity, community and local culture rather than the sacrifice and adoration. In his account, doctrine is no longer treated as fixed, but as continually open to reinterpretation.
¿EN QUÉ MOMENTO SE JODIÓ LA IGLESIA? Un joven seminarista, que pide permanecer en el anonimato por temor a represalias, comparte un testimonio doloroso sobre la realidad que contempla dentro de la Iglesia: seminarios vacíos, liturgias desacralizadas, homilías superficiales, pérdida del sentido de lo sagrado y una identidad católica cada vez más diluida. No es simplemente el lamento de un joven. Es el grito de quien entregó su vida a Cristo y no quiere encontrar una Iglesia que haya olvidado quién es su Señor. Cuando la Eucaristía deja de ocupar el centro, cuando el altar pierde su carácter sagrado, cuando la liturgia se convierte en espectáculo y cuando todo parece susceptible de ser reinterpretado, la pregunta resulta inevitable: ¿Qué hemos hecho con la Iglesia que recibimos? El artículo de La Abeja plantea una reflexión que ningún católico que ame verdaderamente a la Iglesia debería ignorar. Y, a pesar de todo, queda la esperanza: necesitamos sacerdotes santos, fieles a Cristo, a la …अधिक
The boat strikes have failed to reduce the amount of cocaine entering the United States and have instead prompted cartels to adapt their tactics in ways that undermine traditional investigative methods, the Washington Post reported in July, citing an internal assessment by the US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).
If Robert Prevost is Pope, the Papacy is false. If Vatican II is authentic, no Councils matter. If Novus Ordoism is right, Roman Catholicism was always wrong. The Church is not an adulteress, and the Conciliar Sect is clearly the world’s whore. This is accurate, certain, and true.
A child just under two years old was euthanized in the Netherlands because of disabilities. Born prematurely at 26 weeks, the child had severe brain damage, cerebral palsy, visual impairment, and difficult-to-treat seizures. At the parents’ request, a doctor killed the toddler at the end of 2025. Dutch authorities ruled on September 9 that the required criteria had been met.

Leo XIV has named the homosexual activist Michael Saporito, 64, Bishop of Metuchen, New Jersey (September 15). Monsignor Saporito, 64, is currently auxiliary bishop of Newark. Institutional Connection to McCarrick A native of Newark, Saporito entered the McCarrick seminary in 1987. In 1992, Archbishop Theodore McCarrick ordained Saporito to the priesthood. In 1999, homosexual McCarrick elevated the young Rev Saporito as assistant director of vocations. Founded Homosexual Ministry in Parish During Saporito’s tenure as pastor of St. Joseph Church in Maplewood (2004–2011), the parish employed an openly homosexual man as its full-time director of music and liturgy. He said he disclosed the relationship before being hired. Furthermore, as pastor of St. Joseph, Rev Saporito founded a group for homosexuals called "Open Arms Ministry." A 2011 report noted that the parish's embrace of homosexuals came under Saporito: “Above all, according to parishioners, Saporito - through words and deeds …अधिक
Catholic Church Staff Are Helping Put on a Drag Show in St. Gallen; “Catholic” Theologian Says Drag and Catholicism are Both About “Transformation” Meanwhile, ten bishops hold an LGBT summit in Rome while Leo promotes one New Ways Ministry ally and another bishop open to LGBT Communion, female deacons, and a “different Church.” St. Gallen supplies the farce. This Friday, two drag performers, Lupa Nova and Amélie Putain, are scheduled to appear at the Grabenhalle for an evening called Deep Drag. The event is being organized in collaboration with Katholisch St. Gallen. The program promises drag performances mixed with “social, spiritual and cultural questions,” moderated conversation and reflection on identity, memory and hope. Admission is free. The Catholic theologian involved, Ann-Katrin Gässlein, even finds a theological analogy between drag and Christianity: “transformation,” she argues, stands at the center of Catholic faith. She says the collaboration is meant to send a signal for …अधिक

Leo XIV Approves Maronite Archbishop of Damascus Today, Pope Leo XIV has approved the election of Sharbel Ghattas Maroun as the new Maronite Catholic archbishop of Damascus. A Lebanese-born priest, he has spent much of his ministry in the United States. Archbishop Maroun, 64, was elected by the Synod of Bishops of the Maronite Church. He succeeds Archbishop Samir Nassar, 76, whose resignation was accepted by the synod. Since 2020, Maroun has served as protosyncellus, a senior position comparable to vicar general, of the Maronite Eparchy of Our Lady of Lebanon of Los Angeles. Born January 6, 1962, in Kfarselwan, Lebanon, Maroun briefly worked for Crédit Libanais bank. Older Brother, a Lebanese Forces Fighter, Helped Maroun During Civil War In 1975, Lebnen, the father, and the eldest brother Nassif joined the Kataeb (Phalange) party and took up arms to defend their home. The family's house was confiscated and not recovered for 40 years. In 1981 Lebnen's local group formally joined the …अधिक
Archbishop Aldo Cavalli, 79, a former Apostolic Nuncio and the Apostolic Visitor for the parish of Medjugorje, administered Confirmation to two young Irish Travellers in the Adoration Chapel in Medjugorje, reports David Murgia on IlSegnoDiGiona. According to pictures, the women wore inappropriate short white pyjamas. Murgia says the outfits reflect festive dress customary in the Irish Traveller community. He claims to have verified the circumstances through multiple sources and that the photographs are authentic.

@Boanerges Boanerges You probably have never been in Medjugorje. The chapel is very recognizable as the "adoration chapel"; no doubt at all. The photo is authentic. If not, the parish of Medjugorje would have protested on their website and the publisher of the photo's would face a trial in court. MEDJUGORJE, ABITI PROVOCANTI DURANTE LE CRESIME? … Mgr.

A Medjugorje e altrove ci si dovrebbe vergognare del fatto che degli pseudoveggenti, in combutta con una parrocchia e con un vasto indotto, diffondano fasulli messaggi da cosi tanto tempo. Il tutto con la benedizione della neochiesa regnante. Non sorprendono queste volgari immagini, sono perfettamente in linea con le esigenze del todos todos todos
The Christians soon made serious accusations against the Talmud, first of all reproaching him for intolerable blasphemies against Jesus. «In fact – writes Joseph Bonsirven – the Talmud contains the core of the stories, collected and developed in the infamous pamphlet Toledo Jesu, published in Germany around the 9th century […]. Isidore Loeb [Jew and great expert on Judaism, ed.] recognizes it: “There is nothing astonishing that the Talmud contains attacks against Jesus. It would be strange if there were none” (Revue des études juives, t. I, p. 256). Another charge: irreconcilable enmity against Christians […]. We find in the Talmud the severe condemnation of the minim, many see in it a designation of the Christians». Félix Vernet explains that: “The word minìm […], served to designate Christians, the same goes for the word goyim: they –cursed by the Talmud – formerly represented the Greeks or Romans of Titus and Hadrian […]. Now, it is common ground that the Greeks and Romans subsequently …अधिक
War Against the Ancient Mass Is Destructive for the Church - Cardinal Sarah When the generation of the ’68ers passes away, the unfounded, one-sided attitudes against Latin and Gregorian chant will pass away as well, Cardinal Robert Sarah told IlGiornale.it on August 27. Benedict XVI’s liberalization of the Traditional Latin Mass had a positive and even corrective influence on abuses in the celebration of the Novus Ordo, Cardinal Sarah said. “Many priests testify that discovering the Extraordinary Form helped them to celebrate better.” Furthermore, the faithful could choose which form corresponded more closely to the fostering of the faith. “But all of this was brought to an abrupt end by Traditionis Custodes while the Pope Emeritus was still alive.” Francis’ restrictions on the Latin Mass were “neither a wise nor a respectful choice.” Cardinal Sarah added that access to “ritual forms that have existed for centuries can never be artificially restricted by decrees.” Without referring …अधिक
The faithful cannot choose what is not available to them. Who made it not available?An abrupt end by Traditionis Custodes? What nameless "pope" brought TC? Restricted by decrees? Who makes the decrees? When someone is murdered, is the gun put on trial, or the murderer? We are surrounded by wolves and he NEVER names even one. I don't trust him--he only rebukes imaginary people.

"God Has Become Bread" - Leo XIV Reverses Subject and Object “God has become bread” (Dio che si è fatto pane), Leo XIV said on September 5 during an audience with the Perpetual Adorers of the Blessed Sacrament. Taken literally, the words suggest the heresy of impanation: the divine Word united to bread that remains bread, somewhat analogously to the Incarnation. Catholic doctrine is transubstantiation. After consecration, the substance of bread no longer remains. It is not God who becomes bread, but bread that becomes Christ’s Body. The favorable interpretation is that Leo XIV is using devotional or metaphorical language. Benedict XVI used similar language. In 2008, he said that Christ si è fatto pane (“became bread”), and in 2005 spoke of the Host nella quale Gesù per noi si è fatto pane (“in which Jesus became bread for us”). #newsKshofksaeg
Bishop Strickland about Vatican 2 and Bishop Lefebvre “GO AND REPAIR MY HOUSE, WHICH, AS YOU SEE, IS FALLING INTO RUIN” Dear Sons and Daughters in Christ, I know that some of you believe I have changed. Some fear that I have crossed over to “the other side.” Some wonder whether, after years of speaking plainly and courageously about the crisis in the Church, defending the traditional Roman liturgy, questioning what was done in the name of the Second Vatican Council, and speaking openly about Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre, I am now retreating from those convictions. Some of you may even feel betrayed. So before I say anything else, I want to say this plainly: I have not moved. The words Christ spoke to St. Francis at San Damiano – “Go and repair my house, which, as you see, is falling into ruin” – have weighed heavily upon my heart. I have not forgotten what happened to the Church. I have not forgotten what happened to the sacred liturgy, to Catholic catechesis, to religious life, to priestly …अधिक
Bishop Strickland "There is a phrase Catholics have heard for more than sixty years. “Vatican II changed that.” Why don’t we hear Latin anymore? Vatican II. Why did the Mass change? Vatican II. Why did Gregorian chant disappear from so many Catholic churches? Vatican II. Why did practices surrounding Holy Communion change? Vatican II. Why did sanctuaries change? Vatican II. Why did so many customs Catholics had known for generations suddenly disappear? Again and again, the answer was simply, “Vatican II.” Those two words became an explanation for almost everything that happened in Catholic life in the years following the Council. But lately I have been wondering whether that explanation is the right one. Not because Vatican II called for no change. It certainly did. But because when we actually sit down and read the documents of the Council, something interesting begins to happen. We discover that some things commonly attributed to Vatican II are not actually in Vatican II. Other things …अधिक
