Pope Leo XIV sent a written message to the Italian anti-Church newspaper La Repubblica to mark its 50th anniversary. It was founded by the atheist Eugenio Scalfari (1924–2022) and was Pope Francis’ house paper. Historically La Repubblica was one of Italy’s largest daily newspapers, with peak print circulation in the late 1990s and 2000s, average daily sales of about 500,000 copies. Comparative data show La Repubblica being among the biggest losers in print over a decade. Mid-2025 reporting suggested an average daily sale slipping below 100,000. The message of Leo XIV was addressed to the paper’s editor, Mario Orfeo, and was published by the newspaper. Leo XIV praised what he believes is “independent journalism”. Then, he managed to mix the words “journalism” and “integrity” in one sentence: “Even amid diversity of opinions, points of view, and cultures, the press must always act with transparency and integrity.” At least, Leo XIV doubled down on press freedom, calling it essential …More
Blessed Elena Aiello (1895-1961) -Mystic, Stigmatic, Victim Soul, Prophet & Foundress of the Minim Tertiaries of the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ Blessed Sister Elena Aiello would experience terrible sufferings through her life especially on GOOD FRIDAY. On one such Good Friday, APRIL 16, 1954, Sister Aiello stated she received the following concerning message for the world: Then the Madonna appeared to me. She was dressed in black, with seven swords piercing Her Immaculate Heart. Coming closer, with an expression of profound sorrow, and with tears on her cheeks, she spoke to me, saying: ‘Listen attentively, and reveal to all: ‘My Heart is sad for so many sufferings in an impending world in ruin. The justice of Our Father is most offended. Men live in their obstinacy of sin. The wrath of God is near. Soon the world will be afflicted with great calamities, bloody revolutions, frightful hurricanes, and the overflowing of streams and the seas’. ‘Cry out until the priests of God lend …More
PROPHESIES OF 1959 “RUSSIA WILL MARCH UPON ALL THE NATIONS OF EUROPE, PARTICULARLY ITALY, AND WILL RAISE HER FLAG OVER THE DOME OF ST. PETER’S. Italy will be severely tried by a great revolution, and Rome will be purified in blood for its many sins, especially those of impurity!”
A report by the Demetree Institute at Students for Life of America found that 114 U.S. Christian colleges — more than one in seven — have ties to abortion or support it, often through referrals or relationships with the anti-life network Planned Parenthood. Examining 725 Christ-centred institutions during the 2024–25 academic year, the study found that support for abortion has risen sharply since Roe v. Wade was overturned in 2022.
A new report from Students for Life of America’s Demetree Institute for Pro-Life Advancement has found that 114 Christian colleges and universities in the United States — more than one in seven — are supporting abortion in some way. The report found these Christian universities either backing abortion or maintaining some type of relationship with Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion company. The investigation, conducted for the fourth consecutive year during the 2024-2025 academic year, examined 725 institutions affiliated with Christ-centered denominations that publicly claim a historical Christian faith in their founding. Schools from denominations embracing a pro-abortion stance, such as the Disciples of Christ, United Church of Christ, Quaker, and Moravian, were excluded. Students for Life of America (SFLA) President Kristan Hawkins emphasized the incompatibility of such ties with Christian principles. “You can’t be Christian and be pro-abortion,” Hawkins told Fox …
Pope Leo XIV received today the parents and families of the victims of the Crans-Montana fire in Switzerland. The New Year’s Eve tragedy killed 40 people and injured 116 others. Leo XIV started his speech by an exclamation of being deeply moved to meet them: “When I learned that some among you had requested this audience, I immediately said: ‘Yes, we will find the time.’” He knows that in moments of great pain and suffering, words are very limited and powerless: “I cannot explain to you, brothers and sisters, why you and your loved ones have been asked to face such a trial.”
Cardinal Grzegorz Ryś said that the Polish wording of the Good Friday prayer for Jews had been changed 2022 because the previous text was 'so dramatically untrue'. He spoke about the Novus Ordo and not the prayer in the old liturgy. The Cardinal made these remarks during a January press conference held to present the 29th annual Day of Judaism in the Catholic Church in Poland on 15 January. Cardinal Ryś was speaking in his capacity as Chairman of the Committee of the Polish Bishops’ Conference for Dialogue with Judaism. Cardinal Ryś is one of the most liberal bishops in Poland and Leo XIV promoted him to Archbishop of Kraków on 26 November. He added that the version pre-2022 contained teachings that were "if not heretical, then at least scandalous". The change had been introduced despite the fact that the final Polish edition of another new missal had not yet been published. This was possible, Cardinal Ryś said, because the Dicastery for Divine Worship, led by Cardinal Arthur Roche, …More
Even the Poles have got problems with these prelates! Poor things! I suppose you could dig deeper and this prelate will say quite a few things "ecumenical."
France’s assisted dying bill could force Catholic hospitals and care homes to permit euthanasia or close down. The Church must defend its right to conscientious objection.
Military veterans aged 65 face being mobilised under new powers to prepare the Armed Forces for war. The Government is set to increase the age at which the nation’s pool of retired soldiers, known as the strategic reserve, can be called upon from 55 to 65. The new measures are being introduced as part of a new Armed Forces bill, which will be published in Parliament later. The changes will make it easier to mobilise tens of thousands of former military personnel. The Army has shrunk to its smallest number in more than 200 years, with just over 70,000 full-time, fully-trained troops ready to deploy to the frontline. Under existing rules, the pool of retired soldiers can be called upon in the event of “national danger, great emergency or attack in the UK”. However, under the new changes, this will be lowered to “warlike preparations”, which is already the threshold for reservists who have recently left the Armed Forces. The measures come amid fears Britain could be dragged into a full …
On 13 January, Bishop Athanasius Schneider spoke with the Confraternity of Our Lady of Fatima about the current state of the Church. Below are ten key takeaways, followed by the full video. - Synodality is becoming a code word to further dilute the clarity of the Catholic faith. - We are turning the Church into a permanent debating club and a kind of parliament, which goes against the divinely established structure of the Church. Synodal meetings are a waste of time and money, and they take bishops and lay people away from the vital work of evangelisation. - The liturgy is the primary duty of the Church: to adore and worship God worthily. - I am not convinced that an ordinariate for the traditional liturgy is a good solution. It would isolate those attached to the traditional liturgy, but the Mass should be for everyone. The traditional Latin Mass must be at the heart of the Church again, and become commonplace. - A bishop should not have the right to impede or limit the traditional …More
Evidence in California Data from UC San Diego revealed that many incoming students with perfect 4.0 GPAs struggled with college-level math, with some needing remedial help, highlighting a potential disconnect between high school grades and actual college readiness, says PrepScholar.
Trump's Brute Force Threat /Patrick Hennignsen & Lt Col Daniel Davis Patrick Henningsen argues that U.S. sanctions are deliberately designed to harm civilian populations—cutting off fuel, causing hyperinflation, and creating widespread suffering—not to change government behavior. According to this view, sanctions historically fail to alter regimes and instead aim to provoke popular uprisings, which are then exploited through propaganda, provocateurs, and ultimately military intervention. The speaker claims this pattern has been repeatedly applied in countries such as Libya, Venezuela, Syria, and Iran. They contend that President Trump is following this same playbook with Iran: issuing threats, rejecting compromise or genuine negotiations, and laying the groundwork for military strikes. Trump’s warnings that any Iranian retaliation would be met with overwhelming force are interpreted as adopting an “Israeli doctrine” of deterrence through brute force, civilian punishment, decapitation …More
I know the truth is hard sometimes. But it's best we learn it now. Or regret it later. As usual mossad is involved. People from various places are there to start trouble so trump has an excuse to bomb Iran. Just like he did with Venezuela. And as usual using ai and video's from other places from another time. All planned by some very sick and evil people. Please listen to this and to the other one I posted with both men. We are living in the most evil time of the world. Don't get caught up in any of it.
