Two Israeli soldiers were sentenced to 30 days in military jail for smashing a statue of the crucified Christ in Lebanon. The Israeli Defense Forces said one soldier used a sledgehammer while the other filmed; both were removed from combat duty. Six other soldiers were present and did not intervene or report the incident. According to 'The Guardian', such punishment is rare. In 2025, about 88% of alleged misconduct cases involving Israeli forces were closed or unresolved.

On 22 April, ElWanderer.com wrote that one of the most painful legacies of Francis’s pontificate was the bishops he left the Church. In Argentina, Francis appointed 67 bishops, choosing them from among priests who lacked the most basic and essential qualities. On at least three occasions, Francis appointed bishops in Argentina who accepted the nomination but then renounced their consecration weeks later. The rumoured reason was 'skeletons in the closet'. The same happened with the failed Indonesian bishop, Pascalis Syukur: he was chosen as a cardinal by Bergoglio in 2024, gladly accepted the designation, but resigned a few days later. It later emerged that he had been in a romantic relationship with a woman with whom he had two children. It seems likely that Francis appointed bishops from among priests he found personally agreeable or with whom he had some affinity. ElWanderer gives another example. All of the Jesuits who formed the Bergoglian group in the 1980s are now bishops. During …Zvimwe
After Francis was confined to a wheelchair, he spotted a group of Paraguayan women and asked if they had brought chipa. When they handed it over, Francis sprang from his chair with remarkable agility to grab it himself.
The Vatican is pressing forward with the plan to reshape the Church into a more participatory, consultative body with shared decision-making across multiple levels, according to a report by katholisch.de on April 21. On April 17, the General Secretariat of the Synod convened the XVI Ordinary Council in an online session chaired by Cardinal Mario Grech. The meeting opened with a prayer led by Sister Nathalie Becquart. Council members reviewed progress on implementing the final document of the Synod on Synodality and examined ongoing work by study groups. A key next step will be a preparatory meeting at the Vatican from June 23–25, aimed at translating the Synod’s 2024 conclusions into concrete action at the continental level. This implementation phase is scheduled to run through spring 2028. Participants in June will include leaders of major continental episcopal bodies (CELAM, CCEE, and SECAM) alongside representatives of Eastern Catholic patriarchates and delegations from the bishops …Zvimwe
Since legalising euthanasia in 2016, Canada has recorded about 95,000 deaths under the Medical Assistance in Dying programme (MAiD). Starting in 2027, the programme is set to expand further to include people suffering from mental illness. Cardinal Frank Leo of Toronto has appealed to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Members of Parliament to block the expansion. He warned of the pressure vulnerable individuals could face, adding: "A society is rightly judged by how it cares for its most vulnerable members."
Cardinal Frank Leo, the metropolitan archbishop of Toronto yesterday sent a letter "to Prime Minister Carney and all federal Members of Parliament (MPs) in the Archdiocese of Toronto asking for their support of Bill C-218 and decrying the rapid expansion of euthanasia and assisted suicide in Canada. Bill C-218 is a private members’ bill currently before Parliament that would amend the Criminal Code to prevent Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) from being provided when mental illness is the sole underlying condition. Without this change, MAiD will be available for those suffering from mental illness alone beginning in March 2027." The terrible law itself needs to be stopped. Since euthanasia was legalized in Canada in 2016, over 20,000 Canadians have been killed. Abortion kills 100,000 unborn babies each year, all paid for by Canada Health. Did you know that the yearly number of deaths in Canada will soon surpass the number of births? There is no future of any kind in that coming …

In southern Russia, there’s a small town where natural mineral water isn’t just a wellness trend — it’s part of a real medical system. Doctors recommend it. Treatments are prescribed. And for many people, it’s completely free. I traveled to Yessentuki, a quiet town in the Caucasus Mountains, to see this for myself. What I found wasn’t what I expected. Instead of chaos or decay, I discovered a place built around healing — both physical and something deeper. In this video, we explore: Natural mineral springs used for health treatments How Russia’s sanatorium system still works today Historic mud bath clinics dating back to the Russian Empire And an unexpected spiritual dimension overlooking it all This isn’t just about water. It’s about a different way of thinking about health, lifestyle, and balance. Would you try a treatment like this? Do places like this exist where you live? Let me know in the comments.

Satellitenbilder zeigen 33 iranische Schnellboote – Widerspruch zu Trump Satellitenaufnahmen belegen eine große Flotte von 33 Schnellbooten der IRGC-Marine, die nach Patrouillenfahrten in der Straße von Hormus an die Küste zurückkehren. Das steht im Gegensatz zu Trumps Behauptung, die iranische Marine sei „vollständig und restlos zerstört“ worden. Die Boote waren vermutlich an den heutigen Angriffen auf drei Schiffe beteiligt, bei denen zwei Fahrzeuge aufgebracht wurden.

This apostasy, foretold by Scripture, was also announced by the Virgin at La Salette, who clearly stated that Rome would lose the faith and become the seat of the Antichrist; that many priests would completely lose the faith and cause the loss of countless souls; and that many churches would be closed and desecrated. Furthermore, she warned that these desecrated churches would be used to worship demons.

During his flight to Equatorial Guinea, Pope Leo XIV responded to questions regarding a potential future consistory. “That is a question that many people want to ask,” he said. He then made it clear that no decision had yet been taken on the timing of a new consistory. "We need to consider the matter from a broader global perspective," he added, also suggesting that the African continent is being given attention.
Today, Leo XIV commented on the possibility of the next consistory and the creation of new cardinals: 'No decision has yet been made on when new cardinals will be created. We need to consider the issue from a global perspective. We hope that, in the near future — or perhaps a little further down the line — the appointment of a new cardinal for Angola can be considered, and that this will be the case for Africa, and perhaps even for Angola.”
suggesting that the African continent is being given attention. Attention to what? 1. Acceptance of Homosexuality not as Sin 2. Acceptance of co-celebration of liturgy with the Muslims By what means will this be accomplished? A. Blackmail and treachery B. The promotion of the correct types of Bishops and Cardinals C. The Changing of the Curriculum in the Seminaries D. The changing of existing Government Laws E. Threats: Pope Leo will implement the new curriculum stating that it is mandatory, else they will be in schism like the SSPX. F. Finally, the Catechism will be changed to allow the worship of the rear end not as Sin.
The only thing I can see is, Europe and US is trying to cripple Russia as much as possible. Then they will try to invade. They are already preparing for war with Russia. So it seems that's their plans. Cripple Russia, make her weak and then invade.
This scene took place while Pope Leo XIV was signing the Book of Honor at the end of an audience with political leaders in Equatorial Guinea. Social media users quickly noticed that he was struggling to copy a prepared text he had brought for the occasion. The internet delivered its verdict with a smile: Robert Prevost clearly never cheated on an exam.
Cardinal Reinhard Marx of Munich, Germany, has instructed priests and pastoral staff to perform "blessings" for homosexual couples and adulterers. A spokesperson confirmed to Die-Tagespost.de on 21 April that all pastoral practice should adhere to the German bishops' guideline, Segen gibt der Liebe Kraft ('Blessing Gives Love Strength'). This guideline is set to become a fundamental element of pastoral work across the Archdiocese of Munich. Training sessions for pastoral staff on how to conduct these "blessing ceremonies" are scheduled to begin in June. No couple seeking a blessing should be turned away. Priests who reject such "blessings" are expected to refer couples to either their dean or other pastoral workers willing to perform them. Furthermore, Cardinal Marx has urged that the "theological meaning" of the guideline be explained, particularly to those who may "still" struggle with the concept of such "blessings". Blessings for same-sex couples are already common practice in …Zvimwe
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.

Christ Crucified Has Prevailed: In coordination with the Christians of Debel, the Israeli army has replaced the crucifix that had been beheaded in southern Lebanon. This action was (only) taken after images of the incident spread online, sparking widespread outrage.
The Israeli army has stated that it has replaced the crucifix that one of its soldiers defaced in Lebanon. The IDF has expressed deep regret over the incident and is working to ensure that it does not happen again.
The IDF was caught red-handed and so they went into spin control. If a picture hadn't been taken of the incident, they would have simply denied it. Since the picture is real, they say." So sorry, won't happen again". It's all optics to them.
