On April 27, Bishop Emeritus Joseph Strickland of Tyler, Texas, commented on PillarsOfFaith.net regarding the scandalous reception of Mrs. Sarah Mullally at the Vatican. The woman bears the title and attire of the Anglican “Archbishop” of Canterbury. Monsignor Strickland managed not to mention Pope Leo XIV, even though he had received the lady as an equal “bishop.” Rather, Bishop Strickland merely reaffirmed the Catholic teaching that the priesthood is divinely instituted and that the Church has no authority to ordain women. He argued that public gestures that give the appearance of honoring someone without valid ordination in an office could confuse the faithful about the nature of the Catholic priesthood and ordination. In conclusion, he called on Catholics to respond with prayer, Eucharistic adoration, penance, and reparation for the Church. #newsTwjnhxknic
The Vatican’s Dicastery for Divine Worship has acknowledged receipt of a “hierarchical recourse” filed against the apparent refusal of Bishop Michael Martin of Charlotte, North Carolina, to respond to requests concerning liturgical matters. The Vatican letter, dated February 16 and signed by Fr. Pierre Paul, confirms that the case has been assigned protocol number 369/25 and will be examined according to the applicable procedures. However, in the Vatican, such procedural formalities often lead nowhere; even the acceptance of an appeal does not guarantee any intervention or substantive action. Bishop Martin has aggressively curtailed Catholic liturgical practices in the Diocese of Charlotte. #newsAhximseszf
Die Exkommunikation wird nicht gültig sein! Prevost ist selber exkommuniziert. Er wurde installiert durch Bergoglio und Parolin, nicht gültig, nicht rechtmäßig gewählt. Er gibt sich als "Papst" aus, um das Amt für den Synkretismus, die linke UN-Politik, die Synodalität und die Agenda 2030 zu missbrauchen. Prevost, der Mutter Erde-Islamist, zeigt ständig welches Geistes er ist!
Exzellenz Bischof Fellay: "Es besteht eine hohe Wahrscheinlichkeit der Exkommunikation (...), weil sie das öffentlich sagten. Aber wie auch immer: Gott kann Wunder tun. Das (die Exkommunikation) ist nicht das Ende. Unsere Historie zeigt: Gott will von uns, dass wir ein Zeichen des Widerspruchs sind (...) 'Zeichen des Widerspruchs' meint: das Kreuz".
Bishop Bernard Fellay has warned members of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX) that they could face excommunication after the episcopal consecrations planned for July 1. He made these remarks during a sermon at a confirmation on April 19 in St. Marys, Kansas, USA, as reported by AdVaticanum.com. Monsignor Fellay called it “enormously probable” that the FSSPX would be declared excommunicated and schismatic. He repeated: “There is a very high probability.” And: “They are so to say forcing themselves to do it. But whatever, God can do miracles. It’s not the end.” Picture: FSSPX, #newsZshndnlefa
It’s not the German bishops to be excommunicated for blessings same-sex couples or James Martin for pushing homosexual bridges but possibly the FSSPX. Something is terribly wrong here.
Australia hands over $20m a year to WHO and Penny Wong will sign the new agreement in May, 2026 By Niamh HarrisApril 27, 2026 A former lead scientist at the World Health Organization has warned that a new WHO agreement on how countries respond to pandemics will lead to repeated lock down-style restrictions. His warning comes as the WHO prepares for talks in Geneva on Monday to finalize a sweeping pandemic treaty that aims to cover surveillance systems, pathogen sharing and rapid vaccine rollout targets. Dr David Bell Dr David Bell, a former WHO scientific officer and lead author of a new report, said the system could steer the UK and other countries back toward Covid-era measures. These include school and business closures, mask mandates, quarantines and large-scale vaccination campaigns—steps that were not part of standard pandemic planning before 2020. MSN reports: He said: “It is inevitable that we will end up in repeated lockdowns because of how the system is set up.” Dr Bell …
He warns that such people compensate for their "inner weakness" by becoming overly bossy. This also happens in the Industrial workforce. With an inexperienced person placed into a position of power and authority, power quickly goes to his head and leadership skills are lost. A "How to Become a Good Supervisor" seminar focuses on transitioning from individual contributor to leader by mastering communication, conflict resolution, and performance management. Key topics include active listening, setting clear expectations, delivering constructive feedback, and building team trust. These seminars, often available via SkillPath, AMA, or online modules, emphasize practical tools to boost team morale and productivity. The guy who really wants the job is the guy who should never be promoted, it'll go to his head.
The appeal of the Old Liturgy for young people lies in its focus and orientation on God, not on the community. We have so many rites in the Catholic Church. We should accept them for what they are: mere rites. We must infuse every rite with love and devotion; otherwise, it misses its mark. The Old and New Rites, as such, have nothing to do with whether we recognize the Council or not, or how we deal with its texts or reforms.

Raymonda Hassan "I'm Jewish. And the truth is, Israel does not represent me." Katie Halper, an American Jewish political commentator, breaks down how Israel was never truly about protecting Jewish people. She explains how it exploited the Holocaust to justify the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, while showing deep contempt for Holocaust survivors and Mizrahi Jews. Halper argues that Zionism internalized antisemitism, tried to erase Jewish communities that spoke Yiddish and Arabic, and built a militarized identity that shamed religious and intellectual Jews. She connects this with how Israel uses claims of antisemitism to silence critics while aligning with Christian Zionists, who believe Jews must die for the apocalypse, and other types of anti-Semites. 253K views · 12K reactions | "I'm Jewish.

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 10,11-18. Jesus said: "I am the good shepherd. A good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. A hired man, who is not a shepherd and whose sheep are not his own, sees a wolf coming and leaves the sheep and runs away, and the wolf catches and scatters them. This is because he works for pay and has no concern for the sheep. I am the good shepherd, and I know mine and mine know me, just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I will lay down my life for the sheep. I have other sheep that do not belong to this fold. These also I must lead, and they will hear my voice, and there will be one flock, one shepherd. This is why the Father loves me, because I lay down my life in order to take it up again. No one takes it from me, but I lay it down on my own. I have power to lay it down, and power to take it up again. This command I have received from my Father."
Aus dem Heiligen Evangelium nach Johannes - Joh 10,11-18. In jener Zeit sprach Jesus: Ich bin der gute Hirt. Der gute Hirt gibt sein Leben hin für die Schafe. Der bezahlte Knecht aber, der nicht Hirt ist und dem die Schafe nicht gehören, sieht den Wolf kommen, lässt die Schafe im Stich und flieht; und der Wolf reißt sie und zerstreut sie. Er flieht, weil er nur ein bezahlter Knecht ist und ihm an den Schafen nichts liegt. Ich bin der gute Hirt; ich kenne die Meinen und die Meinen kennen mich, wie mich der Vater kennt und ich den Vater kenne; und ich gebe mein Leben hin für die Schafe. Ich habe noch andere Schafe, die nicht aus diesem Stall sind; auch sie muss ich führen und sie werden auf meine Stimme hören; dann wird es nur eine Herde geben und einen Hirten. Deshalb liebt mich der Vater, weil ich mein Leben hingebe, um es wieder zu nehmen. Niemand entreißt es mir, sondern ich gebe es von mir aus hin. Ich habe Macht, es hinzugeben, und ich habe Macht, es wieder zu nehmen. Diesen …Ve
Amid growing controversy over the future of the Valley of the Fallen, Spain’s Minister of the Presidency, Félix Bolaños, has defended Cardinal José Cobo of Madrid. Bolaños told LaSexta.com that the plan to secularise the religious site was not the cardinal's initiative, but the result of an agreement reached directly with the Vatican. He emphasised that no personal deal had been made with Cobo, who has faced significant pressure from Catholics over the issue. The minister also said that the Vatican is fully committed to transforming the Valley from a monastery into a site of "democratic memory". Addressing divisions within the Catholic Church, Bolaños described it as a 'plural organisation', while criticising more traditional sectors that oppose the transformation and suggesting that they are out of step with 'contemporary society'. He also placed the “re-signification” of the Valley within a broader set of negotiations between the Spanish government and the Church, covering issues …Ve
The Valley of the Fallen is the equivalent of Arlington National Cemetery in Virgina. The main difference is that priests live in the monastery that is there and the edifice is large and quite awesome to behold.
Day of the Most Holy Miracle of Santarém In the year 1247, a poor woman lived in Santarém whose husband greatly offended her, going astray with another woman. Tired of suffering, she went to ask a Jewish witch to end her misfortune with her spells. The witch promised her an effective remedy, but for that she needed a Consecrated Host. After much hesitation, the poor woman consented to the sacrilege. She went to the Church of Santo Estêvão, confessed, and asked for Communion. Once she had received the Sacred Particle, she carefully removed it from her mouth and wrapped it in her veil. She quickly left the church and headed for the witch’s house. However, without her noticing, blood began to drip from the veil. Several people saw it and asked the unfortunate woman what wounds she had that were bleeding so much. Extremely confused, she ran home and locked the Miraculous Host inside one of her chests. Later that day, in the afternoon, her husband returned. Deep in the night, both woke up …Ve
