Woman Distributes Communion at Leo XIV’s Eucharist — One Communicant Bare-Chested During the Eucharist celebrated by Leo XIV this evening at the Port of Rimini, a woman was spreading Communion in the hand as if it were cookies. One male attendee even received Communion bare-chested, without a shirt.
– Folha de S. Paulo, April 6, 1978 – by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira The press has already said everything about the elections in France. Thus, attention is no longer focused on the polls but on their aftermath, which is slowly taking shape. The topic is interesting and important. It is interesting because solving the country’s problems will require the French president to play a delicate political game. Giscard d’Estaing clearly has his own agenda, and he must seek the party combination that will most reliably enable him to carry it out. This means seeking parties that will demand minimal changes to his program and give him maximum parliamentary strength. Which way will he cast his net in search of allies? To the left? To the center? This question raises others. Not all groups that make up the winning majority are equally secure for Giscard. Perhaps he finds some opposition sectors more comfortable and influential allies than others in the current situation. But influential centrist …Bivule
Religious Sisters Suppressed After Vatican Intervention for “Being Too Traditional”: Conservative Bishop Earl K. Fernandes of Columbus has suppressed the Children of Mary, a traditional community of religious sisters (canonically, a public association of the faithful) based in Newark, Ohio. In his August 10 letter, Fernandes cites fairly general problems with formation and communal life, as well as concerns about the proper separation of the internal and external forum. He says that Rome’s Dicastery for Institutes of Consecrated Life informed him that the community would never be approved as an institute of diocesan right. But there’s another side: Anthony Stine, citing an anonymous source close to the community, claims that the underlying issue was that the sisters’ formation and catechesis were regarded as too traditional.

"Masons, heretics, apostates, sodomites, pro-abortionists, sexual abusers, prevaricators, atheists, fraudsters, misers, pagans, enemies of the Virgin and of Tradition... these are the members who make up the new church orchestrated by Prevost-Bergoglio, which they want to force us to accept as if it were the Church of Christ."
Like who cares? Lots of machines can do things humans can't - fly, drive, . They seem determined to get us to accept them with the same rights as we have - without any responsibility.
Highlights - Republic of San Marino: Meeting with Clergy, 22 August 2026, Pope Leo XIV During his visit to San Marino on August 22, Pope Leo XIV highlighted the legacy of Saints Marinus and Leo, the founders of the Republic. As laymen and stonemasons—who were only later called to ordained ministry—“they knew how to translate the Gospel message into a new communal and political model strongly characterized by the Christian principles of freedom, mutual respect, and communion.” Pope to youth: Open your hearts to the infinite The Holy Father began his address to the ecclesial community of San Marino with an invitation to young people to open their hearts to the infinite, rather than being satisfied with “partial, immediate answers.” This, he said, can lead them to an encounter with God, who can help them leave their mark on history. Pope Leo went on to invite all those present to enthusiastically embrace the mission given them by God, and to have the courage to make demanding choices, such …Bivule
Pope in San Marino: Respond to conflict by … Responding to conflict by following the Gospel with greater conviction Pope Leo insisted that Jesus is the definitive answer to the questions of the meaning of life, and that the Gospel is the “path of freedom” for all men and women. As such, it is a gift we can give to all those we meet. And it is why Christians practice charity in all its diverse forms, but always aimed at “the ultimate and integral good of the people to whom we offer our support.” In a world marked by conflict, he said, “our response can only be to walk with even greater conviction on the path of the Gospel”. Pope Leo XIV concluded his address by once again recalling the importance of communion in order to overcome individualism and “distrustful and divisive parochialism,” and “to breathe new life into our hopes for fraternity and peace.” This, he said, is a part both of the legacy of Saints Marinus and Leo, and of “our mission to continue with perseverance and dedication …Bivule
On August 7, around 100 Freemasons from different obediences gathered at the Col de Vergio in Corsica, France, nearly 1,500 metres above sea level, for a summer lunch. Among those attending was Cardinal François Bustillo, Bishop of Ajaccio. According to LeCanardEnchaine.fr (August 18), the Cardinal spoke at length about “peace”. The Cardinal is one of the rising stars of the French episcopate. Seated beside him was Jean-Félix Acquaviva, the former autonomist MP currently under investigation for alleged passive corruption (offering positions to young women in exchange for sexual favours). Acquaviva has denied the allegations. #newsAoonddakbb
Be wise: build on the Rock! Liturgy of August 23 - Twenty-first Sunday of Ordinary Time Dear brothers and sisters, the passage from the Gospel of Matthew that we're going to listen to on Sunday, August 23, tells us of the crucial episode that determined a turning point in the Jesus' discipleship of the Apostles, that is the first profession of faith in Jesus Christ, Son of the living God, made by Peter who, for this very reason, would become the first of the Apostles. What an extraordinary gift from God is faith! The Apostles, who initially began to follow Jesus with the secret hope of one day being able to sit at His right or left in a kingdom—that of God—which Jesus proclaimed was near, and which they mistakenly considered purely earthly, they slowly understood more and more clearly that the transformation Jesus wanted to bring about in them would make them far more powerful than the so-called "powerful" people of this world, far more glorious than ephemeral earthly glory can bestow, …Bivule

Monsignor Anthony Spinosa, 75, a Maronite Catholic priest, has been accused of engaging in a public homosexual act with registered sex offender Kenneth Kopp, 54, at Perkins Park in Warren, Ohio, according to Wfmj.com. Spinosa had served since 2002 as rector of the Basilica and National Shrine of Our Lady of Lebanon in North Jackson. He was elevated to the rank of "Chorbishop" (prelate) in 2016. On Thursday, he was relieved of his ministerial assignment. The allegations stem from July 31, when a couple walking their dog told police they saw Kopp on his knees allegedly performing a homosex act on Spinosa, who was smoking a cigar. They further alleged that one of the men invited them to join in and offered to let them watch for payment. According to the police report, the incident occurred "in broad daylight," about 100 meters from a playground where children were present. Police subsequently found Kopp in a Honda Civic near a black rug and pink boots. A search of the vehicle uncovered wigs …Bivule

John333: Why are you insulting me? Why are you using the plural? Your behavior is disrespectful, unfair, and intolerant, not to mention a blatant violation of Christian charity and basic civility. But I highly doubt this bothers you much...
John333: I imagine you're referring to the wonderful comedy starring NASA, with its multidirectional rocket Earth, born from the Big Bang, with life emerging from inert matter, inhabited by the fruit of creative evolution, drifting aimlessly in infinite space, waiting to find life on other worlds and receive the pseudo-messianic visit of extraterrestrials to save humanity from self-destruction. That's the official, mythological story, completely incompatible with the Sacred Scriptures. It's my duty to warn about it. That said, everyone is free to make their own choice...
We have a duty to seek the truth, and to reject evil. Sadly, the sources we've been told we can trust are politically compromised and have become one big stealth campaign for evil.

Is there any point trying to use Wikipedia for biblical research? I was doing research on Daniel 7 and 8 and predictably Wikipedia only gave the skeptic side of things.

"The adulterer through malice against his wife went secretly, and, after cutting the throat of the child, escaped. In the morning when the woman awoke to give suck to the child and saw it was slain, she broke out into such cries as to arouse all the people in the lodging. The father and the mother and all the people in that country being made aware of the calamity, the woman was seized, brought to trial, and sentenced to death, with no one to speak in her behalf. Then she lifted up her eyes to heaven and said : “ Mary, thou knowest my innocence; I commend myself to thee.” No sooner had she spoken those words than a lady came carrying a beautiful boy, and thus addressed them all: “ Stay, ye judges, for this boy shall be judge to-day.” Immediately the boy said to the judge : “ This is my judgment on the murder : Let the murdered child be brought here, and then let the woman’s defence be heard.”
