On July 6, Cardinal Gerhard Müller told K-TV.org that FSSPX confessions are illicit but valid. Now he has repeated his disagreement with the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith. Its explanatory note from July 2 had claimed that confessions heard by FSSPX priests are "invalid." "The note from the Dicastery, which appears only as explanatory notes, is unclear," Cardinal Müller told Andreas Wailzer on X.com on July 8. He added: "The authority to forgive sins is conferred by Christ Himself in the sacrament of Holy Orders. It is not conferred by the Pope through his primacy of jurisdiction. Orthodox priests, too, validly grant absolution." Müller continued: "The Pope can only prohibit the exercise of this authority. He can also reserve certain sins for his own absolution. One example is the sin against the unity of the Church, committed through an unauthorized episcopal consecration." #newsMpjletlqsm
Archbishop Georg Gänswein hopes the restrictions on the Mass in the Roman rite will be lifted, he told Il Giornale on July 7. Looking back to Benedict XVI's 2007 Motu Proprio Summorum Pontificum, Monsignor Gänswein said the Pope wanted to restore “full rights to a rite that had never been abolished”: “His goal was to give it its rightful place again within the Church and to restore peace in the Church's liturgical life.” According to Archbishop Gänswein, Summorum Pontificum was not conceived as a step toward reconciliation with the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X. Rather, “it was directed toward the Church itself.” Benedict XVI was pleased with the results of this reform. “It was beginning to bear fruit. It worked especially well among young people, and this is evident above all in the steadily growing numbers participating each year in the Paris-to-Chartres pilgrimage.” Monsignor Gänswein added that these young people are not opposed to the Second Vatican Council: “Anyone who …More
Leo XIV Is the New Caiaphas Leo XIV succeeded Francis as the new Caiaphas. Caiaphas was a man of power, the highest authority in the hierarchy of the Temple in Jerusalem. Leo XIV is also a man of power, and almost every Catholic submits to him. Imagine if God, Our Lord Jesus Christ, had submitted to Caiaphas. Who is foolish enough to think that, if Christ were here today, He would submit to Leo XIV and his "Lavender Mafia," the leaders of the homosexual Synodal Church? I am so disappointed with "Trad Inc." that I might have to write a special article about them, naming them and denouncing them. I know it is going to happen sooner or later, and when it does, they will squeal like rats.
Hosea 14:2-10 “Return to the Lord.” Let us return to peace; the Lord is here. Matthew 10:16-23 “It will not be you who speak but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.” To make God’s love known is to sow the seeds of God’s presence, his joy, in people’s hearts.

Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore Romano publishes an article claiming Genesis does not contain a devil and original sin, arguing that tradition exegesis "is reduced to sex." This is an ATTACK on traditional Church teaching. lifesitenews.com/news/pope-leos…
Even the Minority Witness at Ron Johnson's Cancer Senate Hearings Had to Agree: COVID Vaccines Appear to Be Causing Cancer in Some People. Breast. Female reproductive. Colon cancer in women. Prostate. Lung. Colorectal in men. Cancer has been rising for two decades — but the curves have now taken a hockey stick upward inflection. The Senate hearing brought UK and US cancer experts together, and the conclusion was not disputed across party lines. Screen now. Re-screen. Total body MRI technology exists. We need to be ahead of this — because too many people are already at risk.
"Highly Unlikely Some self-proclaimed Catholics, lost in the world of information, find it intolerable to even raise the hypothesis that Leo XIV is homosexual. They do not know that he, Leo XIV, authorized the Homosexual Jubilee in the Vatican and in St. Peter's Basilica. Against Church Doctrine, he permits homosexual blessings and fails to punish those who perform them; he constantly promotes homosexuals or members of the hierarchy who favor homosexual culture; and he allows homosexuals to influence the Synod to alter Catholic Doctrine regarding homosexuality. These are facts. Does Leo XIV think that others are stupid and do not understand the modus operandi of the Lavender Mafia? The thing is, in light of all this, if Leo XIV is not homosexual—since homosexuals like to promote one another—then he is a complete idiot who does not know what he is doing while lounging in the Chair of St. Peter. But this latter hypothesis is highly unlikely."
I've always held that any cleric who is obsessed with "outreach" to those involved in that sin "doth protest too much" A normal man would be uncomfortable and loath to engage such a scandalous subject!
From the ancient Maronite village of Deir El Ahmar in Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley, we witnessed one of the most beautiful moments in the life of the Church: the ordination of a new priest.
This is how Christians in Syria received the new Apostolic Nuncio to Syria, Archbishop Luigi Roberto Cona. It was not just Catholics that came out to receive him but the Christian faithful of Syria. What a remarkable welcome
And the drive by news makes us believe that all Syrians are Moslem and terrorists. I met the Patriarch a few years ago and from him I learned more about the Syrian Catholics.
