Angelo Gugel, the longtime papal valet who worked for three popes, has died in Rome at the age of 90, reports Vatican media. Appointed in 1978 by John Paul I, the “33-day pope,” Gugel went on to serve John Paul II throughout his nearly 27-year pontificate. He retired at the beginning of the papacy of Benedict XVI, at the age of 70. Known for his immaculate appearance, he preserved strict discretion even after retirement. From the Gendarmerie to the Papal Household Born on 27 April 1935 in Miane, in Italy’s Veneto region, Gugel joined the Vatican Gendarmerie at the age of 20. After a serious bout of tuberculosis, he was transferred to the administration of the Vatican City State. Albino Luciani, his former bishop in Vittorio Veneto and a family acquaintance, personally chose him as valet after being elected pope. When John Paul I died unexpectedly on 28 September 1978, Gugel was among the few people present in the papal bedroom. At the Pope’s Side Around the World Gugel accompanied John …More
Cardinal Michael Czerny, SJ, 79, said that during the consistory on 7-8 January, he did not hear anyone say, "Oh, I’m sorry we didn’t discuss the liturgy". He told the Substack.com-account The Pillar on 13 January, that what Leo XIV will do with the Mass of the Roman Rite is "beyond my pay grade": "I can’t speculate about how he intends to approach the situation. But I can’t imagine a pope who wouldn’t want to bring peace to the Church. I think every pope since St Peter would want that," the cardinal speculated. In general, he found the consistory a "healthy" exercise. "As soon as we got together and realised that the first thing we would do was spend the whole afternoon discussing it, we realised we were already at work. People immediately switched into gear. All three sessions were good." "Not Possible Without Pope Francis" When asked if the lack of collegiality among the cardinals wasn’t the elephant in the room under Francis, Cardinal Czerny denied it, saying: “No, quite the …More
Just as the democracy of the French Revolution destroyed the monarchy, synodality seeks to destroy the structure of the Church. As for the liturgy, it's understandable that they don't want to discuss it, since the traditional liturgy doesn't fit with modernist doctrine.
[Father Dom Lorenzo Scupoli – XVI-XVII Century AD; Otranto, Kingdom of Naples/Naples, Kingdom of Naples; (aged 79-80); Priest; Spiritual Writer] “Point VIII ~ Of the hindrances to a Right Discernment of Things, and of the method to be adopted in order to understand them properly The cause of our not rightly discerning all these things and many others is, that we conceive a love or hatred of them at first sight. Our understanding is thus darkened, so that it cannot judge of them correctly. Lest you fall into this delusion, take all possible care to keep your will pure and free from inordinate affection for any thing whatsoever. When any object, then, is presented to you, view it with your understanding; and consider it maturely before you are moved by hatred to reject it, if it be a thing contrary to your inclinations, or by love to desire it, if it be pleasing to them. For thus the understanding, being unclouded by passion, will be free and clear, and able to perceive the truth, and to …More

Breaking News Gut Cure: How to restore your microbiome so your body can do what it was designed to do Your gut microbiome acts as a command centre for digestion, immunity, metabolism and brain health; when microbial diversity drops, symptoms often go beyond digestion. Short-chain fatty acids (“SCFAs”), especially butyrate, are essential compounds made by healthy gut bacteria that help repair your gut lining, calm inflammation, stabilise blood sugar and support mental clarity. Modern diets heavy in seed oils (including linoleic acid), emulsifiers and ultra-processed foods disrupt beneficial bacteria and reduce butyrate production, leaving your gut undernourished even if you eat “healthy” foods. Simple changes, such as replacing seed oils with stable fats like butter, ghee or coconut oil, can lower inflammation, rebalance your microbiome and help your body begin healing from the inside out. Let’s not lose touch…Your Government and Big Tech are actively trying to censor the information …
The Archdiocese of Madrid promotes the so-called Convivium process, an official diocesan consultation involving clergy, parishes, religious communities and lay groups in Madrid, Spain. According to InfoVaticana.com, the process was developed through consultation phases in 2024 and 2025, and is comparable with the German Synod. The Archdiocese of Madrid is currently led by the pro-homosexual Cardinal José Cobo. Preparations have begun for the first Convivium-named Presbyteral Assembly, which is scheduled to take place in Madrid on 9–10 February 2026. The archdiocese has recently distributed official working documents synthesising over 800 pages of submissions from parish pastoral councils, clergy, consecrated life and other ecclesial groups. The archdiocesan synthesis includes a subsection labelled 'Peculiar Proposals'. This subsection cites contributions from groups who advocate optional priestly celibacy and propose a non-lifelong or 'temporary' priesthood. They also refer to 'future …More
Another shrimpy, pencil necked, European gay, who happens to be a priest, pontificating on what the Church needs. Shut up. Go to Barcelona and live with your boyfriend. People like you kept me out of the priesthood, and I will forever resent you and spit you out of my mouth. YOU pencil necked losers destroyed my faith!
Ewwww, tell the Pope it's too hard to be faggot and a priest. Priest have to work so many hours each day, without meaningful compensation. Why we're all burnt out. Pleeeeeeeease tell the Pope we regret becoming a priest. Fags and priests don't mix. Fags and priests don't mix. Fags and priests don't mix.

Leo XIV’s consistory in January did not involve a general debate, Cardinal Raymond Burke told Edward Pentin for his Substack.com-account on 16 January. The consistory adopted a format closer to Francis’s synods, with discussion confined almost entirely to small groups:"All the discussion took place in the small group, and then in the general session there was simply a report from the secretaries." Divide and Conquer Burke added that the way the consistory was structured did not allow for so-called free interventions. The two plenary sessions permitted only brief interventions: "Each intervention was limited to three minutes, so just 15 cardinals could speak in one session." With more than 160 cardinals present, many were left unheard. In the small groups, "the topics were assigned, and then there was a whole structure that had to be followed at the tables". Every Pope Appoints the Bishops He Wants Beyond the consistory itself, Cardinal Burke expressed concerns about the Pope’s many …More
The Christian Post asked OnlyFans star Lily Phillips about reports that following her baptism, she was promoting an upcoming orgy. She told them: "Even though I am Christian, I don’t plan on quitting my job anytime soon. I understand that my faith and my work don’t fit neatly into everyone’s expectations of what a Christian ‘should’ look like. I’ve spent a lot of time reflecting, praying, and being honest with myself about both." Phillips said that her relationship with God is "personal, ongoing, and rooted in grace, not in public approval or moral perfection." “Christianity, for me, isn’t about pretending I have everything figured out or meeting other people’s standards," she said. "It’s about sincerity, growth, and trusting that God meets people where they are, not where others think they should be. You don’t have to agree with my choices, but questioning my faith or worth isn’t something I’m open to.”
The doctrines of satan and his minions always prove themselves to be enemies of JESUS CHRIST as the Gospel of Saint Matthew chapter 7 teaches - 18 A good tree cannot yield bad fruit, neither can a bad tree yield good fruit. 19 Every tree that yieldeth not forth good fruit, shall be cut down, and shall be cast into the fire. 20 Wherefore by their fruits you shall know them. 21 Not every one that saith to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven: but he that doth the will of my Father, who is in heaven, he shall enter into the kingdom of heaven. 23 And then will I profess unto them: I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity.
