– Folha de S. Paulo, March 26, 1979 – by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira John Paul II and the Tomorrow That Awaits Us I have waited until now for the official text of John Paul II’s message to the bishops opening the Third CELAM Conference in Puebla, as well as the document approved almost unanimously by the prelates in the final vote days later. Puebla’s Importance With these two key texts in hand—one opening the great meeting and the other closing it — we can make an objective assessment of what Puebla will mean for the future of the Church in Latin America and for the universal Church. Latin America now holds such a position within Catholicism that it significantly shapes the Church’s course worldwide. Finally, Puebla matters for the future of humanity itself, since the Church’s influence — direct or indirect, explicit or implicit — extends to all nations, even those that are not Catholic, and thus profoundly conditions the unfolding of universal history in our century. In passing, a question …More

"Murder in the 33rd Degree: I was there" MINISERIE that will soon be released Rome, 1978. The Vatican lives the year of the three popes. Pope Paul VI entrusts an archbishop with a very delicate mission: to investigate allegations of corruption and Masonic infiltration at the top of the Roman Curia. A young priest, silent witness of all that, kept the secret for almost fifty years. Now, Father Charles Theodore Murr breaks that silence in front of the cameras. He talks about the threats he witnessed, the men of power he met, and the final fate of documents that—according to him—should never see the light of day. His story goes through the death of a Pope, the enigmatic 33 days of pontificate of John Paul I, and the arrival of John Paul II. Murder in the 33rd Degree is a historical investigative documentary series based on Father Murr's testimony and book of the same name — a direct look at one of the most controversial stories of the modern Vatican. The project is presented by Vade Retro …More
One Priest, One Sacrifice, One Eternal Covenant Jesus is the new covenant and the high priest according to the order of Melchizedek, reestablishing the original priesthood. Unlike the Levitical priesthood, Jesus’ priesthood is singular and everlasting, offering his own blood as the ultimate sacrifice for the forgiveness of sins. This understanding is crucial for priests and all Catholics, as it highlights the significance of the Mass and the individual’s participation in Christ's sacrifice. Fr.

Archbishop Aldo Cavalli, 79, a former Apostolic Nuncio and the Apostolic Visitor for the parish of Medjugorje, administered Confirmation to two young Irish Travellers in the Adoration Chapel in Medjugorje, reports David Murgia on IlSegnoDiGiona. According to pictures, the women wore inappropriate short white pyjamas. Murgia says the outfits reflect festive dress customary in the Irish Traveller community. He claims to have verified the circumstances through multiple sources and that the photographs are authentic.

Lack of reverence, Inappropriate and disrespectful attire, (culture taken to an extreme) ~ One questions the sanity of the officiating Archbishop to allow such a performance! ~ "Forgive them Father for they know not what they do!"
Chris Jackson Sep 05, 2026 Anthony Abbate: Chairman of the Fence A tuxedo, a microphone, a theological crisis, and one very comfortable fence. New Catholic satire song is now live on YouTube. There are men who take a position. There are men who change positions. And then there are men who build a very nice house directly on the fence, install a microphone, order a cocktail, and begin explaining why everybody on either side has gone too far. That brings us to “Chairman of the Fence.” Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. I’m Anthony Abbate. I host a show called Avoiding Babylon. Every week I tell you the men running Rome hate Tradition. Then I call you crazy for questioning whether they’re Catholic. Now, let’s all remain calm. [Verse 1] I say Rome persecutes the ancient Mass; The SSPX defends what Rome attacks. I toast Marcel Lefebvre for saying no, And hail the SSPX for doing so. But ask if Rome’s hierarchy has the right to rule, I call you a “sede moron” and a fool. I lay out all the …More
I just went out of arguments in a dispute with a good friend about the actual situation of Saint Peter's Holy See. This singed satire came just in time like a charm!

Today, Leo XIV joked with children at the Vatican’s annual Family Day for employees and their families. “How much is six-seven?” he asked, while making the hand gesture from the viral “6-7” meme. He then answered 13 - turning the deliberately meaningless meme into 6+7. Teenagers followed with another slang: “Papa, can you say ‘aura’?” Leo looked puzzled and repeated: “Aura?” - prompting more laughter. Online, “aura” refers to someone’s coolness, charisma or presence. Young people jokingly give or take away “aura points” depending on what someone does.
Pope Leo XIV makes a dad joke to kids about 6-7, saying “how much is 6 + 7? It’s 13.”
Around 100 motorcyclists gathered with their bikes for a an Open Air Eucharist at the Madonna del Lago church in Castel Gandolfo last Sunday. The annual gathering is led by parish priest and motorcyclist Rev. Tadeusz Rozmus, known as “Don Biker.” During the Novus Ordo, prayers were offered for riders, their families and those killed in road accidents. The bikers then rode in procession through Castel Gandolfo to join Leo XIV for the Angelus. The Pope gave them a special greeting, welcoming the motorcyclists attending their “traditional annual gathering.”
Today, Pope Leo XIV received Archbishop Georg Gänswein, 70, in an audience, amid renewed speculation that Benedict XVI’s longtime secretary could soon be appointed Apostolic Nuncio to France. It was Gänswein’s third meeting with Leo XIV: the first came during the Pope’s gathering with apostolic nuncios in June 2025, followed by a private audience on December 12, 2025. Monsignor Gänswein serves as Apostolic Nuncio to Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia. Pope Francis appointed him to the diplomatic post in June 2024, ending roughly a year in Freiburg without an official assignment following the death of Benedict XVI. In recent months, Vatican observers have speculated that Gänswein could be transferred to the Apostolic Nunciature in Paris. Asked about the possibility at a public appearance in Ravensburg in July, Gänswein declined to confirm the speculation. #newsYgnllwgzqu

Canada is defending its policy allowing transvestites to be housed in women’s prisons. A lawsuit cites 10 alleged sexual assaults and says female inmates’ rights were violated. Ottawa acknowledges the assaults but “wholly denies” the policy caused the harm. It says case-by-case risk assessments are sufficient and calls the policy an “ameliorative” measure for a disadvantaged group.
