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 …Lebih

Tuduhan tersebut bermula pada 31 Juli, ketika sepasang suami istri yang sedang mengajak anjingnya jalan-jalan melaporkan kepada polisi bahwa mereka melihat Kopp berlutut dan diduga melakukan tindakan homoseksual terhadap Spinosa, yang saat itu sedang merokok cerutu. Mereka juga menuduh bahwa salah satu pria tersebut mengajak mereka untuk ikut serta dan menawarkan agar mereka menonton dengan imbalan uang.

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

"For me, the Church is synodal," said Bishop Heiner Wilmer, 65, in an interview with Kirche-Und-Leben.de on 21 August. He is the chairman of the German Bishops’ Conference. In March 2026, Pope Leo XIV promoted the pro-homosexual bishop to Münster, the largest diocese in Germany. Monsignor Wilmer said that synodality is "deeply rooted" in Münster diocese. He added that he was looking forward to "the common journey with many baptised people, but also internationally, ecumenically, and with our Jewish and Muslim brothers and sisters". Grateful for Lay Preaching When asked about lay preaching during Eucharists, Bishop Wilmer admitted that he there are "many" baptised women and men who had been engaging with this issue for years, and that a culture had developed around it. Wilmer has "great respect for this established tradition" and is "deeply grateful" for it. He is "convinced that the wonderful pastoral workers will find a good way to deal with the circumstances” - taking about the Vatican's …Lebih

The University of Notre Dame's McGrath Institute for Church Life has published on July 17 a report containing twelve proposals for assessing candidates for the priesthood. Entitled, "Do You Know Them to Be Worthy?", the file was written by Father Thomas V. Berg and psychologist Timothy G. Lock. The report draws on research commissioned from the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate (CARA) and a consultation held at Notre Dame in September 2025. The proposals concern psychological assessment, candidates with particular psychological or developmental conditions, and formation for chastity and celibacy. It addresses candidates with conditions including ADHD, obsessive-compulsive disorder and autism spectrum disorder. On homosexual attraction, the Notre Dame authors note that a pause in formation may "more often than not" lead to a decision not to advance a candidate toward ordination. The authors think the pause is needed to assess four things: - how the man understands his identity; …Lebih
St. Bridget was told by the Lord that bad priests are not truly His priests, but true betrayesr, worse than Judas in some ways, because they sell Christ after He has already redeemed the world. They handle the sacred Host while living in lust, greed, and double lives, then return to sin with firm intention. The priesthood is the greatest dignity on earth, but also carries the strictest judgment (James 3:1).
Sean Johnson Jul 23, 2025 A. Introduction In Part I of this article, we explained how men arrive at religious conviction in matters which do not avail themselves of mathematical certitude, according to Cardinal Newman’s theory of converging probabilities (i.e., amassing such a cumulation of indications pointing toward a particular conclusion, that to refuse assent to the conclusion would be unreasonable). We reviewed the role disposition plays in this intellective process, as an explanation of why two men viewing the exact same indications can come to opposite views. And we explained that although the method is not without all risk of error, nevertheless, one can arrive at such a high probability of certitude, approximating what moralists refer to as “moral certitude,” that it becomes eminently prudent and reasonable to act upon the conclusion. In this final installment, I will attempt to explain an array of factors which have tended to modify my position regarding the legitimacy of the …Lebih
Slovak pro-LGBT Catholic priest Adam Štefanec, 29, of the Diocese of Žilina said in an August 12 video that he does not like the word “God.” Rev. Štefanec believes that the term had accumulated so many associations that it no longer speaks to people today. “I try to find words that are universal,” he said, naming “humanity” as a universal value. Asked what Christ wants from people, Rev. Štefanec said the answer is “different for everyone,” different in every age, and “constantly changing.” Previously, Rev. Štefanec has supported homosex civil partnerships and said that homosexuality is not a sin.

"Bagi saya, Gereja itu sinodal," kata Uskup Heiner Wilmer, 65 tahun, dalam sebuah wawancara dengan Kirche-Und-Leben.de pada 21 Agustus. Ia adalah ketua Konferensi Waligereja Jerman. Pada Maret 2026, Paus Leo XIV mengangkat uskup yang pro-homoseksual tersebut ke Keuskupan Münster, keuskupan terbesar di Jerman. Monsinyur Wilmer mengatakan bahwa sinodalitas “berakar kuat” di Keuskupan Münster. Ia menambahkan bahwa ia menantikan “perjalanan bersama dengan banyak orang yang telah dibaptis, tetapi juga secara internasional, ekumenis, serta bersama saudara-saudari kita yang beragama Yahudi dan Muslim”. Bersyukur atas Khotbah Awam Ketika ditanya mengenai khotbah awam selama Perayaan Ekaristi, Uskup Wilmer mengakui bahwa ada “banyak” perempuan dan laki-laki yang telah dibaptis yang telah terlibat dalam isu ini selama bertahun-tahun, dan bahwa sebuah budaya telah berkembang di sekitarnya. Wilmer memiliki “penghormatan yang besar terhadap tradisi yang telah mapan ini” dan “sangat bersyukur” karenanya. …Lebih
Sean Johnson Aug 01, 2026 Bishop Richard Williamson (1940 - 2025) In November, 2022 I travelled to St. Mary’s, KS to interview +Williamson (who had gained entry into the United States from Mexico using a fake COVID Passport). It would be the last time His Lordship would step foot on American soil, and the last time I would ever see him. The occasion for the interview, coming as it did in late 2022, was a review of the Resistance movement at its 10-year anniversary. However, the subject matter of the interview was the history of the SSPX ralliement to modernist Rome, going back to the death of Archbishop Lefebvre, and progressing to the (then) present. The interview is therefore nearly four years-old, and in fact it is old news. So why post it here? Why now? About a year or so after the interview was published on YouTube in 5 parts, Part 3 was banned. Fortunately, others had quickly uploaded it onto other video websites, where it survived. A year after that, Part 4 disappeared, likewise …Lebih
Dear Son, A good woman can multiply what you bring into a relationship; the wrong partner can slowly drain it away. Son, there’s something I want you to understand before you choose the person you’ll build your life with: relationships magnify what already exists between two people. Love can grow. Peace can deepen. Dreams can become shared goals. But resentment, selfishness, and disrespect can grow just as quickly. That’s why character matters far more than appearance, charm, or first impressions. 1. A good woman multiplies your effort You give her a house, and together you make it feel like home. You bring groceries through the door, and somehow an ordinary dinner becomes a place where people laugh, talk, and reconnect. You share a dream with her, and instead of dismissing it, she helps you turn it into something real. The right woman doesn’t simply take from what you build. She contributes her own strength, ideas, work, and love. But with the wrong person, the same opportunities can …Lebih
HustleBitch @HustleBitch_ THE GREATEST LAND GRAB IN AMERICAN HISTORY IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW — AND PEOPLE ARE PANICKING RFK Jr. argues America is in the middle of the biggest transfer of residential real estate in modern history. In Texas, there are reportedly more than 200,000 homes currently listed for sale, with some estimates putting the number closer to 300,000. At the same time, foreclosures are accelerating and tens of thousands of households are reportedly more than six months behind on their mortgage payments. Then there's property taxes. Across the country, homeowners, especially seniors, are struggling to keep up with soaring tax bills. Some families have reportedly lost homes over unpaid property taxes after investors stepped in to purchase tax liens. Meanwhile, younger Americans are finding it harder than ever to buy their first home. According to RFK Jr., while families are being priced out, Wall Street firms such as BlackRock and other institutional investors are gaining …Lebih
Video makes no sense: first they say they flipped the switch, tons of homes for sale (price drops), then they say big funds are buying out all homes (price increases). Why would Blackrock buyout everything just to dump the value of the own portfolio?
