Conservative Dutch Auxiliary Bishop Rob Mutsaerts joins the media enthusiasm surrounding Leo XIV’s reception in France. His praise of Leo XIV becomes rather grandiloquent: “The guillotine is gone. Now a man in white appears, proudly raising the Cross.” His central point is more interesting: secular Europe may have lost much of its Christian memory without losing its religious hunger. Mutsaerts sees a generation rediscovering the Cross, the rosary, Gregorian chant, Augustine and Aquinas. And he lands on a memorable image: “The world has organized Christianity’s funeral many times. The remarkable thing is that the deceased keeps showing up.”
LA GHIGLIOTTINA, IL PAPA A PARIGI E IL RITORNO INASPETTATO DELLA FEDE Un’illuminante riflessione di mons. Rob Mutsaerts su Vitamin Exp commenta il trionfale viaggio di Papa Leone XIV in Francia, mettendo a confronto il fallimento delle ideologie laiciste con la permanente attrattiva della fede. I punti salienti dell’articolo: I paradossi della Rivoluzione: Nata con la promessa di libertà, la Rivoluzione francese sfociò nel Terrore, nella ghigliottina e nella creazione del grottesco “Culto della Ragione”. Il surrogato woke: L’uomo non può fare a meno della religione. Rifiutato Dio, la cultura laico-progressista ha inventato il woke: un sistema fondato su colpa e condanna, ma privo della grazia e del perdono cristiano. La smentita delle profezie laiciste: Voltaire ipotizzava la scomparsa della Chiesa, ma le centinaia di migliaia di fedeli a Parigi e l’aumento dei battesimi di adulti dimostrano che la secolarizzazione non è un destino ineluttabile. La vera ribellione: In un mondo …තව

A diocesan bishop has undergone a personal “conversion” toward the traditional Latin Mass. Bishop Donald Lippert of Mendi, Papua New Guinea, has come personally to see the beauty and power of the traditional Roman rite. He told AdVaticanum.com on September 29 that he had “over the last year or so, a bit of a conversion myself into the Traditional Latin Mass.” “I am, as many of us are, an amphibian. I exist mainly in the Novus Ordo, because that is the reality in which I live, and the Church that I have been called to serve at the moment.” He has “no problems with the Novus Ordo”, but sees the power of the traditional Mass particularly in its reverence: “The Traditional Latin Mass has a mysticism about it, and a reverence about it, that can touch the hearts of people and draw them closer to God in a world where there are so many distractions pulling them away.” He is still learning to celebrate the Mass. Mass not primarily for educated Western people When someone told him that the Mass …තව
A Quiet ICE Surge That Unfolded ‘Everywhere All at Once’ This Summer nytimes.com/2026/09/25/us/ice-surge-immigration-a… A review of dozens of incidents caught on camera sheds new light on a largely invisible crackdown. The reporters reviewed more than 50 incidents and interviewed more than two dozen lawyers, business owners, residents and detained immigrants and their family members for this story. Published Sept. 25, 2026Updated Sept. 27, 2026 Leer en español The most effective escalation of President Trump’s mass deportation campaign happened quietly. Unlike earlier high-profile raids that drew thousands of protesters into the streets of Chicago, Los Angeles and Minneapolis, the surge in arrests in June, July and August was captured mostly by grainy security camera footage, through cracked blinds and from behind closed doors. Arrests by Immigration and Customs Enforcement this summer soared to record highs since the start of this Trump administration — with 43,000 in June, more than …තව
Bishop Johan Bonny of Antwerp, Belgium, is pressing ahead with his plan to ordain married men in 2028. Several married candidates are already being prepared for possible ordination. “I trust that an appropriate regulation can be found by the end of the synodal process in autumn 2028,” Bishop Bonny told Herder Korrespondenz, according to katholisch.de (September 28). Bonny warned that it would be “a fatal blow to the credibility and implementation of the entire synodal process if no regulation were reached by then.” Bishop Bonny also expressed confidence in Pope Leo XIV and his approach to the needs of local Churches. “Like a good father, he knows what his children need, and that is not the same everywhere or for everyone,” Bonny added. He also mentioned that he went to Rome in June with the backing of the Belgian Bishops’ Conference. “Before my visit to the two dicasteries in Rome, the president of the Belgian Bishops’ Conference gave me a letter in which the Bishops’ Conference supports …තව
It aint gonna work. A priest is already totally occupied with his priestly duties as well as his prayer life. He does not have time to take care of a family. Being the son of a physician, my father was frequently called out at mealtime to deal with emergencies. A priest must sacrifice and devote all his energies in serving God.

Vatican: late IVE founder Carlos Miguel Buela responsible for homosexual offences. The Vatican has publicly addressed the long-running case of Argentine priest Carlos Miguel Buela, founder of the Institute of the Incarnate Word (IVE). The case began formally in May 2020, when Cardinal Santos Abril y Castelló established a Special Penal Tribunal to examine allegations against Buela. After hearing the accused, his lawyer and numerous witnesses, the tribunal issued its judgment on 20 July 2021. It found that Buela had committed offences against the sixth commandment in relation to five male members of the Institute. Buela appealed. A Special Penal Tribunal of Appeal was subsequently constituted and conducted additional investigations, including further testimony from Buela and witnesses proposed by his defence. On 30 March 2023, the appellate judges deliberated and voted to confirm the first tribunal’s finding concerning the five cases. Before the appellate judgment could be formally drafted …තව
Honduran Bishop Teodoro Gómez Rivera has died at 63 while traveling to Rome to meet Pope Leo XIV during an ad limina visit. The bishop of Choluteca died Monday during a stopover in Madrid.

Pope of Applause. Leo XIV received three minutes of thunderous applause after his speech in Metz on September 28, accompanied by emotional orchestral music. He stood, visibly pleased, and nodded. Applause has an old political language: the acclamation of rulers. Leo XIV readily accepts the ritual, in Metz as in the Vatican, several times a day. Pius XII did not invent papal applause, but helped normalize what earlier popes had often regarded with suspicion: the Pope as the object of prolonged public ovation.
The French haven't been inspired by Christianity for a long time. It's considered that Pope Leo XIV was the first missionary to awaken the French in their Catholic faith, making them realize that they have been Catholic Christians since their ancestors.
30.09.2026 CONSERVATIVE PARTIES IN EUROPE MUST INTERPRET VATICAN COUNCIL II RATIONALLY ONLY : POPE LEO’S IRRATIONAL VERSION IS POLITICAL When the AfD in Germany, Sinn Fein splinter groups in Ireland, Salvini and Vanucci in Italy and Marine le Pen’s RN in France announce that they will interpret Vatican Council II rationally and no more irrationally, honestly and not dishonestly, the Catholic Church becomes conservative once again, at least for them. They automatically oppose Pope Leo and the liberalism of the local archbishops. The Catholic Church returns to traditional faith and morals and opposes the political left. At his last meeting in Milan, Matteo Salvini should have asked the Archbishop of Milan to affirm Vatican Council II rationally and not irrationally. Once the archbishop did this he would be able to speak at Salvini’s meetings on the non separation of Church and State, the need for traditional ecclesiocentric mission and evangelisation, Catholics must not vote for pro-abortion …තව
Leo XIV Appoints Bishop Who Celebrates Jewish Passover with Seminarians. Pope Leo XIV today appointed Bishop Ramón Salazar Estrada, 63, until now auxiliary bishop of Guadalajara, as the new Bishop of Mazatlán, Mexico. Salazar was ordained a priest in 1993 for the Archdiocese of Guadalajara. He holds a doctorate in moral theology from the Alphonsian Academy in Rome. Allegations of Homosexual activity at the seminary In the Archdiocese of Guadalajara there is an anonymous church watchblog, GdlSantaIPecadora.blogspot.com. According to this source the seminary was suffering in 2012 from “delicate cases of homosexuality”, alongside alcoholism. In May 2014 the blog alleged an internal network of seminarians arranging homosexual encounters by phone, connections with priests outside the seminary, and protection or tolerance by some formators. It also claimed that at least seven seminarians had been dismissed after accusations concerning homosexuality. Salazar was already closely involved in …තව
