Anecdotes about Pope Leo XIV's student years at the International College of St. Monica in Rome, belonging to the Augustinian Fathers, are published in the new Vatican News documentary Leone a Roma. An Augustinian friar recalls that fellow students played "so many jokes" on him—"so many." One night he woke convinced an airplane was circling outside his window. The brothers had hidden a ringing radio on top of his wardrobe, leaving him searching for the mysterious noise in the middle of the night. On another occasion, someone offered this friar what he thought was a candy. "They said to me, 'Here, I would like to offer you a candy.' So I thought it was a candy, but instead it was a laxative tablet. As a result, while I was in the chapel I had to run to the bathroom." The documentary accompanies the story with the photo of a smiling young Robert Prevost, without suggesting who was responsible. Another friar recalls that the future pope would squeeze into his room every single evening to …More
On 'Star Wars Day' here's Klaus Wunderlich playing a version of the Star Wars theme like you've never heard. I'll give Klaus this: he knows how to handle his organ.

Leo XIV Promoted This Hopping, Dancing Bishop in Mexico: In January 2026, Pope Leo XIV appointed Monsignor Trinidad Antonio Márquez Guerrero, 60, as auxiliary bishop of San Juan de los Lagos, Mexico. He was consecrated a bishop on May 8. On Sunday, July 19, he celebrated a Eucharist during the diocesan Youth Day in the bullring in Yahualica, attended by some 1,300 young people. Still wearing his mitre and liturgical vestments, he started hopping and dancing around like an overexcited young person.
Y luego nos preguntamos por qué algunos católicos se van con los lefebvristas...
Hebrews 13:4 Let marriage be held in honor by all, and let the marriage bed be kept undefiled; for God will judge fornicators and adulterers. 1 Corinthians 5:11 But now I am writing to you not to associate with anyone who bears the name of brother or sister[a] who is sexually immoral or greedy, or is an idolater, reviler, drunkard, or robber. Do not even eat with such a one. Dear Women in Marriage, I wish to share my story as a testimony to all of you walking through this sacred journey called marriage. My name is Sofia, I am 39 years old, a divorcee after 13 years of marriage, and a mother of three beautiful children, two boys and one girl. I got married when I was 23 years old. At that time, I was young, inexperienced, and too naïve to fully understand what marriage truly meant. My husband was a good man of caring, home-loving, and responsible. Yet, in my youthful ignorance, I mistook my desire for freedom as strength, not realizing that marriage itself requires maturity, patience, …More

[Saint Alphonsus Maria de Liguori – XVII-XVIII Century AD; born: Marianella, Kingdom of Naples/died: Pagani, Kingdom of Naples; (aged 90); Bishop; spiritual writer, composer, musician, artist, poet, lawyer, scholastic philosopher, and theologian; Founder; Doctor of the Church] What has been said of dryness holds true of temptations also. Certainly we should strive to avoid temptations; but if God wishes that we be tempted against faith, purity, or any other virtue, we should not give in to discouraging lamentations, but submit ourselves with resignation to God’s holy will. St. Paul asked to be freed from temptations to impurity and our Lord answered him, saying: “My grace is sufficient for you.” So should we act when we find ourselves victims of unrelenting temptations and God seemingly deaf to our prayers. Let us then say: “Lord, do with me, let happen to me what thou will; your grace is sufficient for me. Only never let me lose this grace.” Consent to temptation, not temptation of …More

The Catholic Faith and naturism/nudism On Google AI assistant: Q: What are the reasons why my father and the German associate nudism and naturism with shame and fearfulness? how can their conditioning about this be logically deconstructed and why is it a leap for them to embrace the pure and theological reasons for it both in theory as well as in practise? and why have i who practise dogmatic traditional catholic theology come over to it and embraced it, without apparently losing my connection to Jesus? Why the majority of Catholics today probably do not have the capacity to grasp this, or what seems like a contradiction from conditionings received throughout a lifetime and from society in general? A: The divergence between your perspective and that of your father, the German man, and mainstream Catholics is rooted in a profound historical, psychological, and theological divide. You are evaluating the human body through the lens of dogmatic traditional Catholic theology and Pre-Fall …More

SSPX vs Vatican II, Vatican II is a malignant tumor sustained by modernism Assisi , new supper (mass) , new ecumenicism, subsist vs is body of Christ ...etc etc etc . The great apostasy fulfilled by todays false council . Smoke of Satan is a raging fire pied piper Pope leading many souls to hell Pope has free will just like fallen angels he can if he wants to use his office to play God . 1960s nothing came out of it unscathed . Homo mafia who seeds were planted ages ago in rebellion has stage a coup d'état All the men in the church know it, the women they like homos that's another story SSPX also has a homo problem if not dealt with soon will blow up

In an attempted public relations stunt, Ukrainian soldiers were captured in an attempt to raise the flag over some abandoned buildings in the strategic city of Konstantinovka. The Ukrainian soldiers were captured by the Russian military and forced to drop their flags and raise the flag of the Russian Federation. The failed PR stunt comes at a time when Ukraine is trying to save face after a recent shakeup in its military leadership. Ukraine's Attempted PR Stunt Ends in Embarrassment --- I watch this sort of thing nearly every day. But this was too funny to pass up without posting it.
When "pope" Francis gather some priests to worship pachamama inside the Vatican, he knew THAT alone would trigger the very few who are faithful... BUT, did you really think it wasn’t premeditated? Both Jorge Mario Bergoglio (Francis) and Robert Prevost (Leo) KNEW who pachamama is, they did their ministries in South America for most of their lives, pachamama, a false deity (demon), is known as "mother earth" and God detests those who cult anything, BUT when a priest bend their knees or allow worship while present, that anger goes beyond detest, I mean, souls under their care are in extreme danger to fall in confusion and perhaps in damnation. The enemy is out there trying to devour souls, tricking with anything they can bait us with and then... PRIESTS bend their knees in adoration? With this they’re helping demons not souls. Look what happened in Venezuela, not only they allow a witch worshipper seized their country (Chavez), but it is ironic that after YEARS and YEARS praying for CHANGE …More
