Fr Edmund Waldstein, a monk and priest of Heiligenkreuz Abbey in Austria, will no longer teach moral theology at the abbey’s seminary. Rector Wolfgang Klausnitzer, 75, a diocesan priest, says Waldstein will not return to teaching during his tenure. Waldstein has defended the death penalty for heretics and Catholic integralism. He has now been removed from teaching and sent to Rome to pursue a further doctorate in philosophy. He has occasionally celebrated the Traditional Latin Mass.

The Catholic Archdiocese of Lagos celebrated the ordination of 20 clergy on September 4 in a ceremony presided over by Archbishop Alfred Adewale Martins, Archbishop of Lagos, held at the Church of the Ascension, Ikeja, Nigeria, where six deacons were ordained to the priesthood and 14 seminarians were ordained to the diaconate.
On 3 September, SilereNonPossum.com published a video of Cardinal Mauro Gambetti at an apparently lavish private gathering. In the video, guests can be seen singing together in an opulent setting. 'Some sing while St Peter's Basilica falls apart,' wrote the outlet sarcastically, contrasting the surroundings with Gambetti's Franciscan vows and his public emphasis on humility, poverty, and immigration. SilereNonPossum has repeatedly criticised Cardinal Gambetti’s leadership of St Peter’s Basilica.
C’è chi canta e la basilica di San Pietro cade a pezzi. Il cardinale Mauro Gambetti, come sempre, ama circondarsi di compagnie semplici e umili. I poveri e la preghiera restano, naturalmente, le sue uniche preoccupazioni. In questa umile dimora, con poveri e migranti. Del resto basta guardarlo: anche il saio francescano racconta perfettamente la sua idea di umiltà e povertà. da pagina facebook di SilereNonPossum
Cardinal Domenico Battaglia, 63, of Naples, Italy, wrote the foreword to the book 'Transgender People'. He believes that the Church is called to "renew its gaze upon humanity". The book deals with “complex and sensitive issues,” he writes. His examples are “gender dysphoria, transgender identities, and life experiences that do not conform to traditional models.” This raises “profound questions - including for the Church.” Cardinal Battaglia proposes “a path not of condemnation, but of accompaniment”: “No one is excluded from God’s heart.” And: “No life is foreign to the mystery of salvation.” “Every person, every story - even those that seem distant or difficult to understand - carries within it the possibility of a revelation.” The book “reminds us that behind ideas there are people. People whom we must encounter, listen to, and accompany.” #newsUqdcmgjzfp
PLACE YOUR COMMENTS IF YOU'D LIKE. 2027 UPCOMING MOVIE PART 1 VIRTUES VS THE SINS - THESE CLIPS POSTED ON SEP 4, 2026 ABOUT THE MOVIE: Virtues Against Sins: This film is being produced gradually under the supervision of the Church. It will consist of three parts. The first part presents catechesis on the virtues that counter sins, based on the doctrine of the Roman Catholic Church and the Doctors of the Church. Just as our Lord Jesus spoke in parables and used elements of nature and everyday life things and people. This movie will use elements of nature, humanoid (human like) monsters to represent the sins, and critters and insects to represent temptations. The first part will be composed of fantastical elements to describe how virtues oppose the sins within the soul, not outside but inside, the internal battle for holiness. The second part features real-life anecdotes addressing various life situations, as well as the crisis of faith within the Church. The third part will include mystical …அதிகமாக
Italian bishop closes church after real-estate ad filmed at altar: A Catholic church in Ventimiglia, Italy, was temporarily closed after an estate agent used its altar to film a promotional video for a nearby property. Bishop Antonio Suetta ruled the unauthorized commercial use a profanation and suspended Eucharists until a penitential rite on Sept. 4. The parish priest was reportedly unaware of the filming. The diocese has also announced a formal complaint to authorities.

Isabel Vaughan-Spruce is being prosecuted again. The 48-year-old Catholic faces a new trial in January 2027 after pleading not guilty to interfering with an abortion clinic. Prosecutors say she stood inside a 150-metre buffer zone outside a Birmingham clinic on five occasions in 2025. Vaughan-Spruce replies she approached no one and simply prayed silently in her head. She was arrested over silent prayer in 2022 and 2023 and received a £13,000 police settlement in 2024. “Wherever we are permitted to be, our thoughts inevitably go with us,” she says. “Those thoughts should not be subject to censorship.” The new case is being brought under England’s national buffer-zone law.

I know, I know. We’ve all been told that Christmas in the Philippines starts on September 1st. Sorry to ruin the fun, but that’s not actually true. The Philippines doesn’t have its own Christmas calendar. Christmas begins with the Midnight Mass on December 24th, whether you’re in the Philippines, Hawaii, Europe, or Vietnam. Yes, you can start playing Christmas songs in September, or all year long if you want. Just don’t tell people it’s already Christmas.
Three Detained After Police Raid Masonic Lodge in Madagascar: Madagascar is investigating a possible link between a Masonic lodge and a wave of disappearances and killings that has alarmed the country. Police raided the Étoile Australe lodge in Ivandry and detained three suspects, including an education official. Authorities reportedly found a coffin containing human remains, bladed objects, an altar and documents concerning rituals. A prosecutor said the possibility of a sacrifice was being considered and investigators were examining whether secret-society meetings could be connected to kidnappings. Nearly 200 disappearances had been reported by early August, although most of those missing were later found alive. Six were found dead. The investigation remains ongoing.
@spinmeister there's never anything you guys see that can be satisfying with the novus ordo, that's precisely why NOBODY listens to you guys when you talk your big "traditional ways" and your critical points on the matter on wayyyy more of the 90% of the catholic world, the novus ordo mass IS the mass and the Eucharist there is not false my dear @Ivan Tomas the Eucharist IS the Holy Flesh of God, there’s better ways to address the problems there, but heck, not even priests listens to your points, even less speaking like that... Anyways, I don’t know why I even reply when some of you are like walls, or like the men with stones ready to pounce the adulterous woman. Even that spinfraud guy comes, speaks his mind while having a block on me but whatever, not losing any sleep over it.
've launched a Substack. Read the essay version of this video here: What Exactly is “The West”? What exactly is "the West"? It's one of the most commonly used political concepts today. Politicians invoke the idea of 'the West' to justify wars, alliances, and trade agreements. In this video, I argue that the term has been hijacked. There is the real West — the civilizations of Europe, the people, art, faith, and history of the continent. And then there is the fake West — a post-1945 geopolitical bloc centered in Washington, inseparable from NATO and Zionist interests. These two things are not the same - and this video explains the difference. What Exactly Is "The West"?
New archaeological findings beneath Jerusalem’s Church of the Holy Sepulchre appear to match St John’s description of the place where Jesus Christ was buried. A team from Rome’s Sapienza University, led by archaeologist Francesca Romana Stasolla, found evidence of rock-cut tombs as well as small areas where grapevines and possibly olive trees once grew. The discovery is especially interesting because St John describes a garden near the place where Jesus was crucified: “Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb” (John 19:41). The Gospel says Jesus was buried there because the tomb was nearby. The excavations do not prove that a particular tomb was the tomb of Christ. However, they show that the area around the traditional sites of Calvary and Christ’s tomb looked much like the setting described in the Gospel. The area was originally a stone quarry. After it was no longer used for quarrying, parts of it became a burial ground, while other …அதிகமாக
Philippine Couple Weds in Flooded Church: Leian Lieza Galang and Gilbert Chico refused to let flooding ruin their wedding in Hagonoy, north of Manila. The couple exchanged vows in waist-deep water at St. John the Baptist Church after weeks of heavy rain. Around 15 guests waded through brown water to attend. Despite the parish advising them to postpone, the couple went ahead: the bride shortened her wedding dress train and the priest kept the ceremony brief. “We didn’t mind getting soaked,” the groom told media.
Despite severe flooding at St. John the Baptist Parish in Hagonoy, Bulacan, Philippines, Leian Lieza Galang and Gilbert Chico chose to go forward with their Catholic wedding on Sept. 1. With their clothes soaked and fewer than 15 guests present, they stood before the altar and received the Sacrament of Matrimony.
The 94-year-old prelate appeared in court with a walking stick in his hand. He and four others were first arrested in 2022 on suspicion of colluding with foreign forces under a Beijing-imposed national security law.
Hong Kong’s Court of Appeal has upheld the conviction of Cardinal Joseph Zen, 94, and four other former trustees of a humanitarian fund. Cardinal Zen attended court using a walking stick. He was convicted in 2022 alongside barrister and former legislator Margaret Ng, former lawmaker Cyd Ho, singer Denise Ho and academic Hui Po-keung for failing to register the 612 Humanitarian Relief Fund under Hong Kong’s Societies Ordinance. Each was fined HK$4,000 (about €440). The convictions were the first of their kind under the ordinance. The fund was established in June 2019 to provide legal, medical and other financial assistance to people arrested or injured during the protests. It ceased operations in October 2021. Today, three judges rejected the defendants’ argument that the fund was money administered through a trust and therefore did not constitute a “society.” They found that those governing the fund had mutual rights and obligations and that it was more than money held on trust.

With thanks to Tudor the adulterer with whom the great decline of the ever-shrinking Britain began. Once a nation is separated from God and the one true Faith, all doors are open to all demons. The current Charlie, as well as his friends such as Marina the "spiritual cooking" chef, are at the forefront of this help.
