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 …เพิ่มเติม
: Isabel Vaughan-Spruce has pleaded "not guilty" to fresh charges for standing and silently praying inside a "buffer zone". The new charges were presented at an ongoing hearing, in which Isabel's legal team is arguing that her prosecution amounts to an "abuse of process" and breaches her human rights to freedom of thought and religion. The judge has also commented that “standing is not a crime" and "Courts are not here to pass judgment on people’s views.”
JUST IN: Israeli car rams into Ultra-Orthodox Jews blocking roads in Jerusalem during a demonstration against the IDF draft @MegaGeopolitics megatron_ron
just so we're clear, those guys in the black suits and hats are against the draft AS IT PERTAINS TO THEM. Otherwise, they're fine. They are despised in Israel. Kinda like ISIL is despised by Mohammedens and Trads are despised by Catholics.

Leo XIV appoints religious sister – lobbying for female ordinations – to senior leadership position in the Roman Curia. On October 8, Pope Leo XIV appointed Sister Mary Teresa Barron as Adjunct Secretary of the Vatican’s Dicastery for Evangelization and President of the Pontifical Mission Societies. The Pontifical Mission Societies is a global network supporting missionary activity, particularly in Africa, Asia, Oceania and parts of Latin America. Born in Ireland, Sr. Mary became a member of the Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Apostles. The missionary congregation was founded in Lyon, France, in 1876 for evangelization, particularly in Africa. “Some women sense a call to priesthood” At a Vatican press conference during the Synod on Synodality in 2024, Sister Barron argued for the ordination of women: “Is the Spirit calling women? Because some women do sense a call to priesthood or diaconate.” Sister Barron believes that “we have to look at broader than just can or can we not …เพิ่มเติม
Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Müller declared that the Marian title Co-Redemptrix expresses “a truth objectively contained in revelation”. He said at the De Maria numquam satis conference in Rome on October 8 that the title is neither “a misleading attribution nor an enthusiastic exaggeration.” “This title must not be silenced because of rejection by Protestants,” Cardinal Müller said, criticizing the Protestant understanding of justification for excluding man's free cooperation in redemption. Cardinal Müller also rejected the objection that the title Co-Redemptrix appeared only in the late Middle Ages. “The fact that a truth of faith is contained in Revelation must not be confused with its conceptual formulation,” he said, comparing its development to the later theological formulation of Christological doctrines. “Anyone who knows the rules of Catholic theology can find no reason for scandal in the analogical use of Christological and soteriological titles,” he added. Cardinal Müller did not …เพิ่มเติม
A house (church) divided against itself, will not last. The traditionalists MUST hold fast and never accept the modernist ideas that are attacking dogma and morality.
Pope Leo XIV calls on the Church to gather the “fruits” of 10 years of Amoris Laetitia — saying they should nourish the whole Church and help local Churches “recognize new paths.”
Friday, 15th August 1913 Frank Prepares to Take Stand, The Atlanta Georgian Atlanta Georgian August 15th, 1913 Defense's Attorneys Expect to Rest Case To-day CLIMAX NEAR IN GREAT COURT FIGHT; CROWDS AGAIN FLOCK TO TRIAL Interest in the trial of Leo M. Frank surged upward magically Friday when it was reported about the courtroom that the defense was nearing the close of its case, and that the defendant himself would be placed on the stand within a short time to make his only statement before his fate was placed in the hands of the twelve jurors. The rumor spread outside the court house mysteriously and an unusual number sought admittance early in the day, although it was regarded as most unlikely that Frank would go to the stand until afternoon. Luther Rosser said he thought he would call the defendant about the middle of the afternoon. Attorney Arnold announced the defense probably would rest by night. As the last witnesses were being called by the defense, Frank, his wife and his mother …เพิ่มเติม
