The Pope’s Prayer intention for the month of September is to pray for care of water: “Lord of Life, you have given us the gift of water, source of fruitfulness, freshness, and hope. It quenches thirst, nourishes the earth, and heals wounds. We thank you because it is also a symbol of your grace and love that renews us through baptism. Today, we ask you to teach us to safeguard it with gratitude, justice, and responsibility. Forgive us for turning it into a commodity, forgetting that it is a universal gift, a right without borders, meant for all your children. We see with pain, so many brothers and sisters, who lack clean water, who walk for miles to find it, who become ill due to its scarcity. May your Spirit make us pilgrims of the essential, able to live with simplicity, denouncing waste and pollution, defending the right of every brother and sister to drink without fear and without inequality. May our care for water, be a sign of love for the Creator, and a commitment to the lives of …更に表示
and the Third Temple Project: At the end of August Trump said again that without him there would have been no Zionist State: "These are very violent, evil people. And if they had a nuclear weapon, Israel would be gone. If I weren't president, Israel would be gone. There would be no Israel. And there would probably be no Middle East... As soon as the shooting started, they started aiming at Saudi Arabia, at Qatar, at UAE, at Bahrain, at Kuwait. Everybody was shocked... That means that if they had had a nuclear weapon, they would have fired it. So, I think the Middle East would have essentially been gone. But Israel definitely would have been gone" source: "Israel would be gone": Trump speculates on the … In the meantime at the end of July The Nascent Sanhedrin, under the noble patronage of late Lubatvicher Rebbe (Mr. Trump took a pilgrimage to his grave some time ago) issued the following resolutions: "The Sanhedrin’s secretariat released the written ruling, translated here and divided …更に表示
Carlo Maria Viganò (Author), Léon-Pierre Durin (Preface) “The Capital Schism” is an incisive and profound essay by Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò, which addresses the unprecedented crisis currently experienced by the Catholic Church, raising crucial questions concerning the relationship between the divine institution of the Papacy and whoever sits upon the Chair of Peter. In this fundamental work for contemporary debate, the Author analyzes the paradox of an ecclesiastical hierarchy that, starting from the Second Vatican Council, has dramatically distanced itself from Tradition to embrace modernist, synodal, and globalist drifts. Key points of the volume: The distinction between the Papacy and the Pope: The essay clarifies the fundamental difference between the Papacy as a divine institution and an unshakable rock, and the person of the Pope, who may act as a faithful custodian or, by divine permission, as an obstacle and adversary to that institution. The capital schism: It examines the …更に表示

Former Curia Cardinal Marc Ouellet has won his defamation lawsuit against Paméla Groleau. She had accused him of sexual assault. Quebec Superior Court Judge Martin Castonguay found her allegations unfounded and ordered her to pay Ouellet C$100,000 (€62,000) in damages. Judge Rejects Accuser’s Account Paméla Groleau, a former pastoral worker, accused the former archbishop of Quebec of inappropriate touching during several encounters between 2008 and 2010. Her main allegation concerned a priestly ordination in 2010, where she claimed Ouellet ran a hand down her back and touched the upper part of her buttocks. Ouellet denied the allegation. At trial, Groleau acknowledged that this was the only incident she considered sexual assault. The judge found her account “neither credible nor reliable,” pointing to changes and inconsistencies in her testimony. Castonguay also noted that Ouellet was holding his episcopal crozier when the alleged contact was said to have occurred. Recklessness Amounting …更に表示
