Worse than Germany:Bishop John Stowe of Kentucky, USA, compared the founders of the homosexual group ‘New Ways Ministry’ - which promotes homosexual “marriage” and “gender transitions” - to St. Paul, St. Francis of Assisi, Mother Teresa, and other Catholic figures. In a May 21 podcast the prelate said that the "Holy Spirit" might do something new: “Isn't this what Francis of Assisi experienced when his exuberance of spirit moved him to renounce the materialism and status that had defined his life and to embrace the outcast and the lepers? The Holy Spirit empowered him to discern how to rebuild the church by fidelity to the gospel and inclusion of the poor. Isn't this what Paul of Tarsus experienced when he saw no reason to exclude the Gentiles from this universal community? […] Isn't this opening of windows and doors what the founding leaders and supporters of 'New Way's Ministry' were doing as they embrace those wounded by rejection because of their sexual orientation? Since …بیشتر
Worse than Germany: During a recent wedding at Saint Martin Church in Aubière, Diocese of Clermont-Ferrand, France, a deacon sang Claude François’s song “Cette année-là” (“That Year”) in front of the altar. The guests are jumping up and down, applauding and singing along. The Diocese of Clermont has been ruined by Archbishop François Kalist since 2016.

Skip to content Austria used to be a free country. Then came Islamification via mass immigration. Now, Austrians are not free even to barbeque pork. From Exxpress via Allah’s Willing Executioners: It is not only the barbecue areas on the Danube Island that are popular, but also the Steinbruchwiese barbecue area in Ottakringer Wald. Four student friends from Vienna had gone there to have a barbecue together, but the large Muslim families who were also barbecuing there took offence at their food. “You’re not barbecuing pig, go somewhere else,” the Austrians were told. “Go somewhere else,” the foreign invaders tell the native population. That sums up open borders. “When we arrived, there were already loads of people having a barbecue, and the place was packed. There seemed to be a lot of people or families from migrant backgrounds, but that didn’t bother us at all. We did get a few sceptical looks when we settled in among the crowd, but nobody had a problem with us. Until we took the …
Two priests and a subdeacon of the Transalpine Redemptorists have fled from the monastery island of Papa Stronsay, Scotland, according to PressAndJournal.co.uk on May 20. The three reportedly coordinated their departure with Bishop Hugh Gilbert of Aberdeen, who is expected to establish a new community with them in his diocese. They are said to have secretly contacted the bishop using a monastery laptop and left the island by boat without informing their superiors. The plan was discovered on the laptop on the day of their departure. Father Anthony Mary criticized the men for leaving in secret. “They left on the evening boat, and we have heard nothing since — no word, no explanation, nothing,” he said. He also accused Bishop Hugh Gilbert of having “worked against us.” Father Michael Mary, founder of the Transalpine Redemptorists, said the three left because of “theological differences.” The departure came shortly after the community published a manifesto rejecting the legitimacy of …بیشتر
FACTUAL CORRECTIONS: The two priests and seminarian who left the Transalpine Redemptorists: 1) The text above makes it sound as though they "escaped" in a boat. This is inaccurate. They did not live in Papa Stronsay but in Stronsay. They simply walked from the house in which they were living and took the evening ferry. That they "fled" is media nonsense. 2) Clearly because they left to go to the Bishop of Aberdeen they had to have been in contact with him. It was not a secret. Their complaints to the Bishop of Aberdeen had been ongoing since October 2025, but indeed without any reference to the monastery superior. All attempts by the superiors to talk matters through were in vain. 3) The date that they left the house in Stronsay and took the ferry was: 27 March. This was not after the death of Brother Ignatius Maria. Brother died 12 April. The text above wrongly states that Brother's body had not yet been found as of yesterday (23 May). Brother's body was found and positively identified …بیشتر

On 21 May, Fsspx.news published a message from Father Davide Pagliarani, Superior of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X, addressed to its members regarding the Episcopal Consecrations. The text was signed March 7. Main points, slightly shortened. - While the state of necessity could already be invoked in 1988, this state of necessity is, unfortunately, even more evident in 2026. - There is a positive aspect to this situation. The announcement on 2 February left no one in the Catholic Church indifferent. Almost everyone feels concern and the need to express their approval or disapproval. - The reason behind the decision to proceed with episcopal consecrations is the salvation of souls. This should not be seen as mere rhetoric or a simple canonical justification. - We must love the Church, even if its official representatives were to declare us excommunicated and schismatic once again. - We must never succumb to bitterness. - We must remember that if Divine Providence grants us the …بیشتر
The Superior General of the SSPX has defended the Society’s decision to consecrate bishops this summer, arguing that the “state of necessity” first invoked by Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre in 1988 is now “even more evident in 2026”. Fr Davide Pagliarani also warned that any declaration of excommunication or schism against the Society “would be objectively unjust”.
The Diocese of Capua is investigating claims that a fiberglass statue of Padre Pio in Casalba near Naples shed a tear first noticed on April 18. Parish priest Don Girolamo Capuano says he reviewed April security footage and found no evidence of tampering. The diocese is examining the substance seen on the statue. The case has drawn pilgrims and national media attention, while Church authorities remain cautious after a previous “weeping statue” in the same town was later explained by rainwater leakage.

The man featured for nearly 25 years on the cover of the Roman priest calendar “Calendario Romano” is not a priest. Giovanni Galizia, now 39, told La Repubblica he posed for the photo at age 17 in Palermo as a joke after meeting photographer Piero Pazzi. Galizia said he was never paid, never felt called to the priesthood, and now works in flight attendant training for a Spanish airline. He described the image as an aesthetic portrait of an embarrassed teenager whose friends were laughing during the shoot.
A calendar featuring close-ups of young, handsome priests has been a popular Rome souvenir for two decades. However, many of those photographed aren't actually priests.
by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira – Folha de S. Paulo, May 8, 1980 – Many believe the current political “opening” is just superficial — meaning only releasing prisoners and allowing exiles back into the country. And that’s all. The “opening” will be seen as finished once they are free to move around and are celebrated and praised by the media. Based on this idea, the “opening” is not a benefit to the country but only for those who attacked it at a certain point or behaved in a way that raised suspicion of doing so. Someone with a broader perspective might rightly argue that the promoters of the political “opening up” aimed for much more than that. Viewing democracy as the participation of the entire population in the country’s governance, its full realization involves, for each citizen, the effective expansion of their share of decision-making power in line with democratic principles. To democratize is to open up. The corollary of this is that every citizen has the right to say, write …بیشتر
Archbishop Marcelo Colombo of Mendoza, president of the Argentine Episcopal Conference, has denied receiving any formal reprimand from the Vatican regarding the reception of Holy Communion, according to a report by InfoVaticana.com. The controversy began after ElWanderer.com claimed last week that both Archbishop Colombo and Bishop Gabriel Barba of San Luis had been reprimanded by the Vatican because they had prohibited kneeling to receive Communion. Archbishop Colombo described the reports as “a lie” and “fake news”. Speaking to Radio María, Archbishop Colombo insisted that 'there is nothing' to the story, adding that he had never received any official communication from the Vatican on the matter.

The Vatican has NOT reprimanded the leftist and anti-Catholic Argentine militants—Marcelo Colombo and Gabriel Barba—invalidly appointed as "bishops" by the false pope Bergoglio.
Retired Swiss Bishop Marian Eleganti wrote a blog post on May 21 about the synodal “occupational therapy” ordered by the Vatican. Main points slightly shortened. - What comes from Rome — the workshop behind the universally proclaimed synodal process — is human wisdom. Apparently, its protagonists have nothing better to do than keep issuing instructions to local churches on how to manage and sustain this synodal process, a stillbirth from the start. - It is the full-time actors of this dysfunctional, committee-run Church who busy themselves - at great expense - with commissioned management tools and synodal papers. - Nothing comes of it except ever more documents to read, heterodox study results, and newly invented committees — on top of the many already existing ones. - By now, it has become clear what this process aims at: restructuring the Church’s longstanding doctrinal positions on divorce and remarriage, homosexuality and the broader queer agenda, the synodal democratization of …بیشتر
