Tucho’s new document contradicts John Paul II. Today, the Vatican’s Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, headed by the soft-porn author and Cardinal Víctor “Tucho” Fernández, has published Venite ad Me (“Come to Me”), a document on transmitting the Catholic faith. He disclaims “terminological precision and systematic treatment,” instead adopting a more discursive approach. Tucho creates a contrast between faith and its doctrinal formulations. Paragraph 29 of the document states: “The faith is not transmitted primarily as a body of doctrinal content or religious information, but as a form of ecclesial life into which the believer is gradually introduced.” Tucho’s document uses a “not primarily X, but Y” construction, whereas John Paul II explicitly warns against opposing doctrinal instruction and Christian life. In his 1979 apostolic exhortation 'Catechesi Tradendae', the pope wrote that "no opposition is to be set up between a catechesis taking life as its point of departure and a …Magis

"29. And when He first came into the world what did He say? “You no longer delight in holocausts; so I have assumed a body and I come, O God, to do Your will.” (Heb 10:5-7) During the thirty-three years of His life this will became so completely His daily bread, that at the moment of handing over His soul into His Father’s hands, He could say to Him: “All is accomplished,” (Jn 19:30) yes, all Your desires, all have been realized, that is why “I have glorified You on earth.” (Jn 7:14)"

22.10.2026 VATICAN COUNCIL II SUPPORTS THE TRADITIONALISTS : REUTERS APOLOGY NEEDED When LG 8, 14, 16, UR 3, NA 2, GS 22 etc in Vatican Council II refer to hypothetical and invisible cases in 2026 and Ad Gentes 7 is aligned with the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus (EENS) of the Council of Florence 1442 and also the Athanasius Creed, then Vatican Council II supports the traditionalists and not Pope Leo XIV. Reuters needs to correct its reports on Vatican Council II. We cannot meet or see anyone saved in invincible ignorance(LG 16) or the baptism of desire (LG 14). If anyone is saved as such it can only be known to God. These are theoretical cases for us humans. Theoretical cases are not practical exceptions for the dogma EENS or the Athanasius Creed or an ecumenism of return to the Catholic Church of the Syllabus of Pope Pius IX. When LG 8, 14, 16 etc refer to theoretical cases then Vatican Council II is traditional with Ad Gentes 7 placed in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, …Magis

Jewish settlers’ attacks on Palestinians are not isolated incidents, and despite condemnations by Israeli officials, the violence continues, fueled by persistent impunity for perpetrators. The Patriarchs and Heads of Churches in Jerusalem issued a joint statement following the October 17 settler attack on the Christian village of Taybeh. They insist the attack was not an isolated incident, but part of a wider pattern of settler violence against Palestinian villages across the West Bank, escalating during the olive harvest. The Church leaders acknowledge that Israeli President Isaac Herzog condemned the violence and that Israeli police made arrests. However, they warn that settler attacks continue because perpetrators enjoy impunity, raising serious concerns about the effectiveness of Israeli law enforcement. Finally, they condemn a recently published religious ruling permitting Jews to take Palestinians' olives, calling it "very worrying and dangerous, and absolutely unacceptable." The …Magis
