– Folha de S. Paulo, April 6, 1978 – by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira The press has already said everything about the elections in France. Thus, attention is no longer focused on the polls but on their aftermath, which is slowly taking shape. The topic is interesting and important. It is interesting because solving the country’s problems will require the French president to play a delicate political game. Giscard d’Estaing clearly has his own agenda, and he must seek the party combination that will most reliably enable him to carry it out. This means seeking parties that will demand minimal changes to his program and give him maximum parliamentary strength. Which way will he cast his net in search of allies? To the left? To the center? This question raises others. Not all groups that make up the winning majority are equally secure for Giscard. Perhaps he finds some opposition sectors more comfortable and influential allies than others in the current situation. But influential centrist …More

[Venerable Mary of Agreda – XVII Century AD; born/died: Agreda, Spain; Mystic; Writer; ‘Blue Nun’] They were also sometimes assisted, in a wonderful manner, by the ministry of angels. But before recounting these, it is well to remark that the nobleness of heart, the faith, and the generosity of the saint were so exalted, that his soul was free from every taint of avarice, or sordid care for the future. And although the holy spouses devoted themselves to labor, they never demanded the price of their work, nor would they enter into bargains, for they did not labor from motives of interest, but to exercise charity towards those who had need of it, leaving the acknowledgment of it to their discretion, When some payment was made to them, they received it not as a price or recompense, but as an alms. It often happened that no recompense was Offered for their work, and that they found themselves entirely destitute of food, and then the Lord provided it. One day, when their usual dinner hour …More
"One day, when their usual dinner hour was past, and no morsel of food was to be found in the house, they remained a long time in prayer and thanksgiving to the divine Majesty, for this affliction. During this time the holy angels prepared a repast. They arranged the table and placed thereon fruits, bread of a very delicate kind, fish, and a sort of conserve of wonderful sweetness and excellence; and then some of these blessed spirits went to call their Queen—others, St. Joseph."
"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 …More
[Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich – XVIII-XIX Century AD; born: Flamschen, Holy Roman Empire/died: Dulmen, German Confederation; Mystic; Stigmatist, Writer] 4.2 ~ Mary’s Birth Several days before the Blessed Virgin’s birth Anna had told Joachim that the time was approaching for her to be delivered. She sent messengers to Sephoris, where her younger sister Maraha lived; to the widow Enue (sister of Elizabeth) in the valley of Zabulon; and to her niece Mary Salome at Bethsaida, asking these three women to come to her. I saw them on their journeys. The widow Enue had a serving lad with her; the other two women were accompanied by their husbands who, however, went back on approaching Nazareth. I saw that on the day before Anna was delivered Joachim sent his many menservants out to the herds, and among Anna’s new maidservants he kept in the house only those who were needed. He, too, went out into his nearest pasture. I saw that Anna’s firstborn daughter, Mary Heli, looked after the house. She …More
"She introduced into the hymn all the prophetic symbols of Mary. She said: ‘The seed given by God to Abraham has ripened in me.’ She spoke of the promise to Sarah of Isaac’s birth and said: ‘The blossoming of Aaron’s rod is perfected in me.’ At that moment I saw her as though suffused with light; I saw the room full of radiance, and Jacob’s ladder appearing above it. The women were overcome with astonishment and joy, and I think that they also saw the vision."

We have a duty to seek the truth, and to reject evil. Sadly, the sources we've been told we can trust are politically compromised and have become one big stealth campaign for evil. How we choose to respond make a big difference. Wikipedia and Catholicism: Navigating … reddit.com/…im_really_upset_that_wikipedia_delete… Wikipedia and Catholicism: Navigating Misinformation and Religious Bias — World Religion News Another comment from a Instagram user. Is there any point trying to use Wikipedia for biblical research? I was doing research on Daniel 7 and 8 and predictably Wikipedia only gave the skeptic side of things. Even my 1984 encyclopaedia says "some say it was written in 165 BC, others say it was written earlier". But Wikipedia unequivocally declares the former. I say predictably because it's known to be edited by atheist Reddit types. What websites do you use for biblical research. Now I am not merely looking for only websites that affirm my preexisting beliefs I just wants something …More
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 …More
Unlike false prophet Bergoglio, false prophet Prevost kneels in front of the altar. Slight (but important) changes in the style of seduction (he is much more sophisticated)
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
Be wise: build on the Rock! Liturgy of August 23 - Twenty-first Sunday of Ordinary Time Dear brothers and sisters, the passage from the Gospel of Matthew that we're going to listen to on Sunday, August 23, tells us of the crucial episode that determined a turning point in the Jesus' discipleship of the Apostles, that is the first profession of faith in Jesus Christ, Son of the living God, made by Peter who, for this very reason, would become the first of the Apostles. What an extraordinary gift from God is faith! The Apostles, who initially began to follow Jesus with the secret hope of one day being able to sit at His right or left in a kingdom—that of God—which Jesus proclaimed was near, and which they mistakenly considered purely earthly, they slowly understood more and more clearly that the transformation Jesus wanted to bring about in them would make them far more powerful than the so-called "powerful" people of this world, far more glorious than ephemeral earthly glory can bestow, …More
