Today, Archbishop Carlo Viganò published the personal letter that he had sent to Pope Leo XIV in January. It appears that - despite Viganò having denied that Francis was a legitimate pope - he recognizes Leo XIV. Monsignor Viganò addresses Leo XIV as "Holiness," asks him to exercise his authority, and seeks an audience with him. Archbishop Viganò recounts his long career in Vatican service, argues that he was punished for exposing corruption and doctrinal problems in the Church, explains how retirement led him to reject Vatican II and the post-conciliar direction of the Church, defends himself against the charge of schism, and urges Leo XIV to break with the errors of the Francis era and the synodal project. The letter contains a noticeably heavy use of first-person pronouns and is full of self-reference, emphasis on personal integrity, descriptions of persecution and mistreatment, frequent presentation of himself as a key witness to major events, and relatively little self-criticism …Zaidi
Leo XIV’s newly appointed archbishop of New York, the effeminate Monsignor Ronald Hicks, celebrated a recent win of the New York basketball team ‘Knicks’ with the Muslim Mayor Zohran Mamdani at the city’s Puerto Rican festival. On Sunday, Hicks abused the homily during the Eucharist to talk about his basketball religion again.
This is the new Archbishop of New York (lacking some male hormons to my mind)
Archbishop Franco Moscone of Manfredonia-Vieste-San Giovanni Rotondo has come under criticism after signing a petition calling on the Il Libro Possibile festival to reconsider hosting Israeli novelist Eshkol Nevo. According to AgenSir on June 15, Monsignor Moscone argued that intellectuals have a duty to speak clearly in the face of injustice. He added that Nevo had failed to provide sufficient "criticism and clarity" regarding the actions of the Israeli government. He insisted that "the issue is not that Nevo is Israeli." Festival organizers rejected the petition and confirmed that Nevo will participate as scheduled, noting that the writer has repeatedly spoken in favor of peace. The initiative triggered sharp reactions within the Italian Church. Archbishop Giuseppe Baturi, secretary-general of the Italian Bishops' Conference (CEI), said that "peace is not built by preventing those who think differently from speaking." Archbishop Carmelo Pennisi of Monreale described the campaign as …Zaidi
With Vatican II's document NOSTRA AETATE, non-Christian religions were basically proclaimed to be equal to Catholicism. A huge can of poisonous worms was thus released.
Dormition Cathedral at Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, part of a UNESCO-listed monastery complex, was damaged during a large Russian missile-and-drone attack on Kyiv on June 15. Ukraine blamed Russia for the damage. Moscow denied targeting the site, claiming that it was caused by a malfunctioning U.S.-supplied Patriot air-defense missile.
@Stepan Rudenko Tell me something. Where do you come off calling me a liar? All because you decided not to look at all our posts for at least the past 6 or 7 years? And ignored the fact that 2 or 3 people were begging us to come and save them and their Church. There are some who remember that if they have been on gtv for years. And there are many. If it was a like someone by now would have denied it. Posts with Church's bombed with the remnants of the bomb showing it was from the UK and US. I and others have posted many video's and pictures of what's going on. My favorite are the independent journalist like Patrick Lancaster who has a channel on youtube going back to 2014!!!! In them you will hear the elderly talk about how he went to them and looked around at the devastation he made to their villages, towns and cities. Who he told them to their face. I hate you! I hate you all! And I am going to kill you all! It's all on his channel. You want proof? Look for it yourself! With him and …Zaidi
@Instaurare Omnia in Christo A lie has no feet. Don't lie; instead, give examples of where Ukraine has bombed "numerous churches, hospitals, schools, universities, and museums." Where has Zelenskyy bought houses around the world? Russia is destroying houses and wiping out entire Ukrainian towns and villages!
Putin says he doesn't fear the UK because, "they can't even stop rubber boats invading their country or foreign men raping their women and kids." He also said the British people hate their leader.
Putin works for the Kremlin! This is funny! The only thing he fears is the Consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Then he won't be able to go through with the Kremlin's satanic plans to destroy Christianity.
“The Church cannot be the receptacle for events and gatherings that have no connection to the spiritual identity and sacred purpose of these holy places—churches, chapels, oratories, and shrines,” Bishop Emeritus Dominique Rey told TribuneChretienne.com (June 13) in response to Paris's blasphemous Nuit Blanche festival on June 6–7. During the event, a masturbating figure was displayed inside a church. Rather than addressing the responsibility of the Archbishop of Paris, Bishop Rey recast the controversy as one example of a wider pattern of general offenses against places of worship: “We are currently seeing an increase in sacrilegious acts, vandalism, and offensive insults that damage the integrity of places of worship, which scandalizes and angers the faithful,” he said. Monsignor Rey's intervention appears to be the first episcopal response to the scandal. #newsTbrnwdjrwb
Why Does Leo XIV Appoint This Kind of Leadership to the Church? During Sunday Mass at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Archbishop Ronald Hicks of New York celebrated the New York Knicks’ NBA championship victory with an embarrassing display of fandom, which included nervous giggling and requests for applause. Holding up a No. 11 Knicks jersey, he told worshippers that he had 'caught Knicks fever' and had watched the entire championship-winning match. He then showcased a FIFA shirt and a Puerto Rican hat to highlight New York’s major events that day. The performance quickly attracted attention online. Catholics on social media ridiculed the Archbishop, questioning Pope Leo XIV’s decision to appoint him as Archbishop of New York.
A German bishop and a Catholic women’s lay organization have slammed the Catholic Women’s Association of Germany for demanding access to abortion in Catholic hospitals. As LifeSiteNews reported last week, the Catholic Women’s Association of Germany (kfd) demanded that abortions be carried out in Catholic hospitals as part of its paper: “Between the Protection of Life and Self-Determination: Positions and Perspectives of the kfd on Section 218 of the German Criminal Code.” The kfd is a private association that is subject to the oversight of the German bishops’ conference. Bishop Heinz Josef Algermissen, emeritus bishop of Fulda, responded to the scandalous text, saying it was “not Catholic.” “That a Catholic organization is seriously demanding that the killing of children before birth ‘must also be possible in Catholic hospitals’ is completely unacceptable and downright intolerable,” Algermissen, who serves as chairman of the pro-life group Seelsorge für das Leben, said. “The …
Today, Pope Leo XIV received a delegation from the United Jewish Appeal-Federation of New York (UJA-Federation) in the Apostolic Palace. Founded in 1917, the UJA-Federation is among the world's largest Jewish philanthropic organizations, supporting “the poor”, refugees, and other vulnerable populations in New York, Israel, and more than seventy countries worldwide. Welcoming the delegation, Leo XIV praised the organization as an instrument of global Jewish philanthropy. It demonstrates a profound commitment to human fraternity that resonates with the Church's own vision of integral human development. Leo XIV Rejects Discrimination Based on Religion Leo XIV recalled that sixty-six years ago, in 1960, Pope John XXIII welcomed a delegation from the same organization with the memorable words, "I am Joseph, your brother" (Genesis 45:4). Then, Leo XIV observed that this encounter helped inspire a new era in Catholic-Jewish relations and contributed to the development of the Second Vatican …Zaidi
"Behold Jesus Christ crucified, Who is the only foundation of our hope; He is our Mediator and Advocate; the victim and sacrifice for our sins. He is goodness and patience itself; His mercy is moved by the tears of sinners, and He never refuses pardon and grace to those who ask it with a truly contrite and humbled heart. -----St. Charles Borromeo."
HOPE Wait upon the Lord; be faithful to His commandments; He will elevate your hope, and put you in possession of His Kingdom. Wait upon Him patiently; wait upon Him by avoiding all sin. He will come, doubt it not; and in the approaching day of His visitation, which will be that of your death and His judgment, He will Himself crown your holy hope. Place all your hope in the Heart of Jesus; it is a safe asylum; for he who trusts in God is sheltered and protected by His mercy. To this firm hope, join the practice of virtue, and even in this life you will begin to taste the ineffable joys of Paradise. -----St. Bernard. Not only think of the road through which thou art travelling, but take care never to lose sight of that blessed country in which thou art shortly to arrive. Thou meetest here with passing sufferings, but wilt soon enjoy everlasting rest. When thou lookest up to the recompense everything thou dost or sufferest will appear light, and no more than a shadow; it bears no proportion …Zaidi
Wanaharakati wa Pro-life duniani kote wanamkashifu Papa Francis kwa kukadirisha uavyaji mimba kwa kuulinganisha na masuala ya haki za kijamii kama vile uhamaji na umaskini. Katika Mahimizo yake ya Kichungaji Gaudete et Exsultate, 101, Francis anadai kwamba maisha ya watu ambao wanateseka ni "takatifu" sawa na maisha ya watoto wasio na hatia huku akipuuza ukweli kuwa kuteseka na kuuawa sio sawa katika njia yoyote ile. Huku akiendelea na mbinu yake ya kupindukapinduka Kadinali Gerhard Müller a akizungumza na mtandao wa lizikosoa sauti hizi NcRegister.com (Aprili 21). alidai kwamba ni "bila shaka vibaya kumjumuisha Francis kama mtangazaji wa itikadi za tamaduni mbaya za kifo". Lakini ni ukweli kwamba Francis alimtunuku mnamo mwaka wa 2017 mwanasiasa Mholanzi Lilianne Ploumen, mwnezaji mkali wa propaganda za uavyaji mimba, na Daraja la Upapa la Mtakatifu Gregory. Nchini Italia huwapendekeza watu kama vile Emma Bonino ambaye, licha ya kutokuwa daktari wa afya, alitekeleza uavyaji mimba …Zaidi
