Navi Pillay, South African Jurist, Is Awarded the Nobel Peace Prize nytimes.com/…09/world/europe/nobel-peace-prize-na… The choice drew condemnation from Israel over Ms. Pillay’s role leading a U.N. commission that said the country had committed genocide against Palestinians. By Zane Irwin Oct. 9, 2026Updated 1:55 p.m. ET A South African lawyer with a long record in human rights work, including leading a U.N. commission that said Israel had committed genocide, won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday, a decision that drew Israel’s condemnation and underscored the country’s deep isolation on the world stage. The lawyer, Navanethem Pillay, known as Navi, has worked for decades on human rights issues, defending anti-apartheid activists like the future president and Nobel laureate Nelson Mandela. Over the years, she has variously served as a top U.N. official and as a judge on the International Criminal Court and a tribunal investigating genocide in Rwanda. But it was Ms. Pillay’s work last year …Siwaju sii
Canada plans to permanently exclude people with mental illness alone from euthanasia. The expansion was due in March 2027. Justice Minister Sean Fraser cited two reasons: no medical consensus on when mental illness is incurable, and poor access to psychiatric care. However, the Liberals voted against a Conservative bill seeking the same ban. They argued its wording was too broad. Instead, they plan their own bill, combining the ban with a proposal to allow advance euthanasia requests for patients with dementia. Critics accuse the government of using the ban to push through this expansion.
Why Modern Marriage Crumbles Beneath the Rebellion of Decades of Lawlessness You sit in your houses, weeping over the wreckage of your broken vows, pointing your soft, therapeutic fingers at "poor communication" and "unmet emotional needs." You treat marriage like a marketplace for mutual self-admiration, a perpetual indulgence of the passions, and a playground for unrestrained desire. Repent. You are looking at the smoke while ignoring the fire. What you call a "modern marriage" is no marriage at all. It is nothing more than a glorified shack-up between two so-called equals—the terrible, rotten fruit of the 1960s sexual revolution, which tore down the moral fences of Christendom and baptized lawlessness as liberty. If you stripped away the cowardice of this age and listened to the unyielding voice of the ancient Fathers—confirmed and systematically sealed by the angelic doctor Thomas Aquinas—you would see why your dwellings are falling into the dust. You have committed a double rebellion …Siwaju sii
Yes, but the establishment intel people have missed the key issues about the Maidan revolution in Ukraine, which DID NOT overthrow a "legitimately elected Communist president." I have pieced together what really happened: Viktor Yanukovich or his Communist president of the Rada (parliament), gave the stand down order to the Riot Police (the Berkut) that until then had the protestors in the Maidan square surrounded and hemmed in. The communist president conspired to make it look like a Western coup, and the Western globalists like Victor Nuland kept silent about anything to the contrary. It was, like the phony fall of communism, a master stroke of deception meant to pave the way for oligarch Petro Poroshenko to get elected—a phony Ukrainian "nationalist" who would go on to provoke Putin into his stealth invasion of 2014. It wouldn't have made sense for a communist president to provoke Putin, so the communists engendered this fake coup so a false nationalist could replace him and provoke …Siwaju sii
During the Vatican meeting marking the tenth anniversary of Amoris Laetitia, Pope Leo XIV and Cardinal Mario Grech both used language suggesting that different local Churches may develop different "pastoral" approaches. As so often with synodal language, the implications remain ambiguous: neither explicitly says that different countries may adopt contradictory teachings or sacramental rules. Leo XIV called for episcopal conferences and local Churches to discern “new paths.” In his October 7 address, he said: “Moreover, the diversity of the situations from which we come can become a gift for the discernment of the whole Church.” He later spoke of experiences brought from different cultural contexts, adding: “This will nourish the pastoral discernment of the Episcopal Conferences and the hierarchical structures of the Eastern Churches. It will likewise help the local Churches recognize new paths, and draw all the baptized more deeply into the Church’s synodal journey.” Grech: Reception of …Siwaju sii

Ukraine Isn’t a Charity Case, It’s the World’s Top Military School All of the military tacticians in the world are studying this modern war and Ukraine’s ability to innovate and produce (under the most austere, wartime conditions) new drone technology on the cheap. Ukraine’s success in blunting the entire conventional army of Russia with the use of drones has every military strategist reassessing tactics and equipment. While drones cannot win wars by themselves, they can deter even armored forces from invading a country with impunity.
Leo XIV warns against those who “radicalize” Catholic teaching. Pope Leo XIV spoke during a Eucharist in St. Peter’s Basilica marking the opening of the 2026–2027 academic year for Rome’s Pontifical Universities. He said: “In every age, there is no shortage of false teachers who exploit the religious sentiments of many believers for their own interests, often pushing them to radicalize certain aspects of the teaching they have received at the expense of the whole — the whole, which is Christ and his Gospel.” Leo XIV then invented a Church’s responsibility for both “to safeguard” the revelation but also “to develop, within diverse contexts, a prayerful understanding of it”. #newsCulbilpxew
Apparently "died by suicide" is now the politically correct term for "killed himself"
Suicide of a priest: Bernard Card, 73, parish priest of Sainte-Chantal Church in Dijon, France, has committed suicide (pictured left). The Diocese of Dijon announced his “tragic death,” which occurred during the night of October 4–5 at the Sainte-Chantal presbytery. Archbishop Antoine Hérouard (pictured right) described the suicide as “completely unexpected and difficult to understand.” According to reports citing his message to diocesan clergy, Rev. Card had recently been tired and had previously been deeply affected by the suicide of his brother. Ordained in 1981, Rev. Card served the Diocese of Dijon for more than four decades and had been parish priest of Sainte-Chantal since 2019. Despite the suicide, he will be buried at Sainte-Chantal on October 13. His death comes less than two years after another priest of the Diocese of Dijon, Rev. Claude-Marie Millet, also committed suicide. #newsAywayqmkjl
Cardinal notes “changing understandings of gender,” says Church must discern how to change. At Leo XIV's meeting marking ten years of Amoris Laetitia on October 8, Cardinal Filipe Neri Ferrão delivered a speech on the challenges facing families in Asia. He is the President of the Conference of Bishops of India. Discussing changes in the “identity, nature and composition of the family,” the cardinal observed that “new forms of partnership and cohabitation are emerging, amid changing understandings of gender and relationships in urban settings.” Reflecting on what the Church has learned from its pastoral work, Ferrão declared: “Pastoral work is itself a place of discernment. We don't arrive with ready-made answers. We discern together with families and, in doing so, we learn how the Church herself is being asked to change.” In his conclusion, the cardinal stated that “there is no single stereotype of an ideal family” and asked, “What is the Holy Spirit asking the Church to change – not …Siwaju sii
Leo XIV appoints Cardinal Luis Tagle as new dean of the College of Cardinals. Today, Pope Leo XIV has accepted the resignation of Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re, 92, as Dean of the College of Cardinals. He approved the election of Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle as the new Dean of the College of Cardinals. Cardinal Tagle is Pro-Prefect of the Dicastery for Evangelization. Nicknamed “Chito,” the sentimal prelate is known for singing and crying in public. He has wept during liturgies, promotions and talks. In 2015, Tagle condemned the Church's use of “harsh language” toward homosexual, claiming it had contributed to their alleged isolation. In 2017, he participated in an Easter campaign promoting greater acceptance of marginalized people, including homosexuals. #newsThwhrzspyd
“Archbishop Viganò and the Seat of St. Peter: A respectful reply” - By S. D. Wright -Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò recently made a number of criticisms of 'sedevacantism', but do they stand up to scrutiny?
“The Creator is the source of human dignity, not the State.” Cardinal Willem Jacobus Eijk of Utrecht, Netherlands, argued in an October 8 interview with LaNuovaBq.it that democratic majorities cannot determine fundamental human rights. Without recognition of God as Creator, the State assumes the power to decide who deserves legal protection and who does not, including unborn children. Eijk insisted that legislation must be grounded in natural moral law. He also pointed to growing numbers of young Catholics in France, the Netherlands and England who embrace Church doctrine as a sign of hope.
BTW, the above usually leads to perhaps the greatest blasphemy of our times i.e. that a temporal life is sacred. Here the cult of Holy Martyrs of God ends and starts the one of idols and demons.
Strange words. We can talk about our Creator in many different praises: as the Source of life, truth, love, beauty, our reasonable soul and its salvation. But human dignity or "human rights"? God is no suffragist or cheap politician. And He is no humanist either. In his relationship, as the creature, towards God man does not need any human dignity/human rights and cannot claim one (as he is unworthy) unless he wants to claim "non serviam" - just as the ancient serpent. And the State, just as the man, should also serve God which the post-conciliar revolution forgot about. It is the source of things forbidden to the State, killing children included. The God's direct commandment, God's direct order, yes also the natural law. Not any inalienable dignity or "human rights". Hell is full of people who claimed them.
Jane Allen was suffering from anorexia. She traveled to Colorado seeking treatment. Instead, her doctor offered assisted suicide — a prescription for death. Her father intervened just in time. Jane began to heal — eating again, tapering off morphine. The anorexia clinic dropped her, calling her a “liability.” When Jane chose life, her doctors walked away. Assisted suicide isn’t healthcare. It’s preying on the sick and vulnerable.
Yes, communism which NON Russians brought to the people and killed tens of millions of CATHOLICS AND ORTHODOX. Some people ought to take out all the hate from their hearts and their lying and get rid of the ignorance they speak. What was Sister Lucia concerned about? communism. What does the Church teach? communism is a sin and evil. Who did the Saintly Popes reach out to? The Russian Orthodox. Who did the Russian Orthodox reach out to? Saintly Popes. Who did most of those Saintly Popes and more condemned fiercely? protestantism. The slaughterer of souls. And also the mind. YES! The errors of Russia! But NOT of the Russian People! As the Church has said, taught and shown for centuries.
