17.01.2026 POPE LEO MUST NOT ALLOW THE IMPRIMATUR FOR NEW BOOKS ON VATICAN COUNCIL II INTERPRETED WITH THE FALSE PREMISE : RAHNER’S BOOKS MUST BE PULLED BACK Karl Rahner uses the False Premise and Inference to interpret Vatican Council II in his book, The Christian of the Future (1967.Herder and Herder, New York). On pp.94 and 95 he projects being saved in invincible ignorance of Lumen Gentiun 16 as being an explicit and known example of salvation outside the Catholic Church. He then infers that LG 16 is an objective exception for the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus. So EENS has become obsolete for him (pp.82-85). In this book made up of talks he gave in Germany in 1965 he criticizes the understanding of extra ecclesiam nulla salus ‘in a very exclusive and permissive way’. For him the Church is the Sacrament of the world’s salvation (p.8) and there is no reference to Ad Gentes 7 which says all need faith and baptism for salvation. So for him there is a new understanding of mission …ད་རུང་།
“This was the level of dictatorship that we had here in Rome. Many of the Swiss guards left rather than take the vaccine,” Thomas said. “And quite rightly so, because in 2008, Pope Benedict listed ‘seven new sins.’ One of those had to do with genetic modification and genetic engineering of the human person, the injection of experimental drugs (into) the human person.” Read all: WATCH: Pope Leo’s former classmate denounces … Click on the picture if you cannot see all content.

The Truth will out! I went to visit a friend in a nursing home and was told in advance that many residents "had COVID" I dreaded having to wear a mask or be quizzed about booster shots of the vax [which I've taken NONE], but was pleasantly surprised it was business as usual. No restrictions and all & staff were NOT masked or doing anything not of the ordinary!
Our Lady of Pontmain & Our Lady of Absam- January 17th, 2026 | No Greater Delight No Greater Delight is a daily Marian podcast meant to start the day with a Marian touch. After examining the Marian feasts celebrated throughout the world on a given day, Fr. Nate offers a brief reflection to help make our love for Our Lady concrete in daily living. The title "No Greater Delight" is inspired by a homily of Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, wherein he expresses his joy in preaching about the Virgin Mother, even though he acknowledges the challenge of adequately praising her. Mary's greatness is beyond words. 0:00 Feasts of Mary Today 04:33 The Imitation of Mary WhatsApp Channel: Catholic Voice Links: catholicvoice | Instagram, Facebook | Linktree
Das Absamer Gnadenbild Johann Bucher, der Bruder Rosinas, erzählt, was sich anno 1797 in seinem Vaterhaus zugetragen hat. Im Alter von 76 Jahren schrieb er im Beisein zweier Zeugen: "Am 17. Jänner 1797 nähte nachmittags meine Schwester, ein bereits gewachsenes Mädchen (Anm.: 18 Jahre alt) mit Namen Rosina im Zimmer zu ebener Erde am Tische dem Fenster gegenüber. Da sah sie auf einmal - zwischen 3 und 4 Uhr (Anm.: nachmittags) - was man bis dahin nie gesehen, an einer Fensterscheibe des inneren Fensters ein Bildnis der Gottesmutter gezeichnet. Sie rief der Mutter, welche ebenfalls anwesend, aber an einem anderen Orte des Zimmers war. Die Mutter eilte herbei und erschrak anfangs nicht wenig, als sie das Bild der heiligen Jungfrau sah, indem sie auf den Gedanken kam, es möchte dem Vater oder mir im Salzberge wo wir arbeiteten, ein Unglück begegnet sein. Sie sagte daher zur Schwester Rosina, wir sollen etwas beten; was auch geschah. Nach verrichtetem Gebete wischte die Mutter das Bild mit …ད་རུང་།
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 …ད་རུང་།
Fri Jan 16, 2026 - 3:59 pm EST (LifeSiteNews) — Republican gubernatorial candidate James Fishback has pitched a unique proposal to curb the influence of the pornography industry: a 50 percent “sin tax” on income earned by OnlyFans creators. OnlyFans is a creator-run porn site that connects porn performers directly to fans, who pay a monthly subscription fee for content. “Creators” keep about 80 percent of earnings, while the platform, which launched in London in 2016, takes 20 percent. OnlyFans has exploded in popularity over the past decade. As of 2025, the platform has over 4 million “creator accounts” (not all of them feature pornography), and over 305 million “fan accounts,” with an estimated annual revenue of over $6.6 billion. Industry watchers and journalists frequently refer to OnlyFans as “the future of porn.” “My message to the owners of OnlyFans is get the hell out of our state,” Fishback explained. “I hope you get bankrupt. Don’t you dare come to my state and try …
CATECHISM OF PERSEVERANCE : AN HISTORICAL, DOCTRINAL,MORAL, AND LITURGICAL EXPOSITION OF THE CATHOLIC RELIGION Translated from the French of Mgr Gaume by REV. F. B. JAMISON - COURSE FIRST - CHAPTER 32 - The Messiah promised and prefigured - Fourteenth figure of the Messiah - Gideon. (A.C.1405.)
The Lie: Carnal Desire & Pleasure Are "Beautiful Natural Gifts of GOD, Implanted in Human Nature From Creation" Hear me, brethren, and tremble! Do not be deceived by what the world calls natural! Do not be seduced by what men call a blessing! The measure of true humanity is Christ the Lord! The standard of human life is the Blessed Virgin, preserved from all stain from the first instant of her conception! He took flesh—yet no concupiscence stirred in Him! She bore Him—yet no wound of desire touched her womb or her heart! Behold, brethren! In the New Adam and the New Eve, we see what humanity was made to be: virginity, continence, and purity of body and soul—this is the natural state of man! Not concupiscence! Not carnal pleasure! Christ reveals it by nature assumed; the Virgin confirms it by grace preserved. Carnal desire is not from the Creator! Carnal pleasure is not a blessing of God! They are the wound of the Fall, a rebellion of the flesh against reason, a law in the members …ད་རུང་།
We’re funny creatures, really. We sit down for dinner and complain about the soup. That same bowl would be a miracle to someone who hasn’t eaten in days. But we’re not hungry — we’re picky. We walk into an empty apartment and curse the loneliness. That same space would feel like heaven to someone sleeping in a train station. But we’re not homeless — we’re insatiable. We look in the mirror and circle imperfections. That same body would be a gift to someone fighting for their life. But we’re not sick — we’re just blind. Blind to what we have. Deaf to our own good fortune. Numb to the quiet, everyday miracle of simply existing. Because we’re convinced happiness lives somewhere else — in another city, another job, another house, another pair of hands. But the truth is… it’s here. In a closet full of clothes that somehow leaves you with “nothing to wear.” In a phone full of contacts that somehow leaves you with “no one to call.” In a calendar full of plans that somehow leaves you …ད་རུང་།
[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 …ད་རུང་།
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 …ད་རུང་།
