Christ was “flirting”: strange language at Leo XIV’s meeting on Amoris laetitia. At the Vatican event marking 10 years of Amoris Laetitia, Sr. Helen Alford, O.P., presented a fellow Dominican’s reading of Jesus’ encounter with the Samaritan woman: “In a somewhat provocative way, but I think it is a useful provocation, he calls the first stage ‘flirt.’” “A conversation between a woman and a man who are both alone.” As Jesus gradually transforms the conversation, Alford says “the ambiguity persists.” Later, after Christ confronts the woman about her five husbands and the man she is currently with, Sr. Alford says she realizes: “This man is not just flirting.”
At the Vatican’s Amoris Laetitia anniversary event, Sr. Helen Alford, O.P., approvingly presented a fellow Dominican’s “provocative” description of Jesus’ encounter with the Samaritan woman as beginning with a “flirt” — adding that “the ambiguity persists” before Christ confronts her with the truth.
St. Thomas Aquinas would certainly not support the US position to end the war by using nuclear weapons dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki incinerating and melt the flesh from the innocent population. All we have to do is look at the president at the time: Truman – an avowed Free Mason. I’m with Tucker on this debate.
James 1:14–15 "Each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death."
“Recognizing the work of grace in situations of failure.” Pope Leo XIV opened a Vatican meeting on marriage and family in the Paul VI Audience Hall on October 7, marking the 10th anniversary of Amoris Laetitia. Presidents of bishops’ conferences, bishops and experts participate. “In many contexts, a growing distance has emerged between the way sex and intimacy are experienced and the Christian vision of marriage,” Leo XIV admitted. Speaking about "fragility" and "wounded" situations, he asked whether the Church can “recognize the work of grace even in situations marked by limitations, wounds, and apparent failure.”

Ap@statePrevost challenges Christ himself. 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 Are you not aware that wrongdoers will never inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived! Fornicators, idolaters, adulterers, male prostitutes, sodomites, thieves, extortioners, drunkards, slanderers, swindlers—none of these will inherit the kingdom of God. Galatians 1:9 As we said before, so now I say again: If any one preach to you a gospel, besides that which you have received, let him be anathema.
The Redemption of Man and the Rejection of “Holy Sex” A Patristic and Scholastic Disputation Against the Modern Exaltation of Carnal Pleasure “The first man Adam was made into a living soul; the last Adam into a quickening spirit.” —1 Corinthians 15:45 Prologue: The Question Before Us There is a fundamental question which must be asked before we speak of the holiness of sexual pleasure: What is man? And immediately after that: What became of man through the Fall? For if we begin with fallen man as though his present condition were the standard of human nature, we shall inevitably mistake the wounds of the Fall for the original design of God. This is precisely the danger in the modern exaltation of sexuality. The question is no longer merely: "Is marital intercourse lawful?" The Catholic tradition already answers that question. The more profound question is: "What ought the Christian to desire within the marital act?" And here a profound difference appears between the ascetical tradition …Ve
Suicide of a priest: Bernard Card, 73, parish priest of Sainte-Chantal Church in Dijon, France, has committed suicide (pictured left). The Diocese of Dijon announced his “tragic death,” which occurred during the night of October 4–5 at the Sainte-Chantal presbytery. Archbishop Antoine Hérouard (pictured right) described the suicide as “completely unexpected and difficult to understand.” According to reports citing his message to diocesan clergy, Rev. Card had recently been tired and had previously been deeply affected by the suicide of his brother. Ordained in 1981, Rev. Card served the Diocese of Dijon for more than four decades and had been parish priest of Sainte-Chantal since 2019. Despite the suicide, he will be buried at Sainte-Chantal on October 13. His death comes less than two years after another priest of the Diocese of Dijon, Rev. Claude-Marie Millet, also committed suicide. #newsAywayqmkjl

Abortion pills are every abuser’s dream. A few clicks. A package in the mail. A baby’s life is ended. A woman left to suffer alone. (Video from “Students for Life”—whose leaders earn enormous salaries)
"A woman left to suffer alone." . While this is the most common situation, please never overlook the fact that men's reproductive rights are completely and fully abrogated and usurped by women and by law. A woman may kill a man's son or daughter with complete impunity, no recourse for the father, and typically no sympathy or support for the father.
Unconscionable and unthinkable that this used to be the land of the free and home of the brave. America is now the home of baby murder. I think the Students for Life leaders earn every penny they get and more.
Woman Distributes Communion at Leo XIV’s Eucharist — One Communicant Bare-Chested During the Eucharist celebrated by Leo XIV this evening at the Port of Rimini, a woman was spreading Communion in the hand as if it were cookies. One male attendee even received Communion bare-chested, without a shirt.

Jane Allen was suffering from anorexia. She traveled to Colorado seeking treatment. Instead, her doctor offered assisted suicide — a prescription for death. Her father intervened just in time. Jane began to heal — eating again, tapering off morphine. The anorexia clinic dropped her, calling her a “liability.” When Jane chose life, her doctors walked away. Assisted suicide isn’t healthcare. It’s preying on the sick and vulnerable.
Yes, communism which NON Russians brought to the people and killed tens of millions of CATHOLICS AND ORTHODOX. Some people ought to take out all the hate from their hearts and their lying and get rid of the ignorance they speak. What was Sister Lucia concerned about? communism. What does the Church teach? communism is a sin and evil. Who did the Saintly Popes reach out to? The Russian Orthodox. Who did the Russian Orthodox reach out to? Saintly Popes. Who did most of those Saintly Popes and more condemned fiercely? protestantism. The slaughterer of souls. And also the mind. YES! The errors of Russia! But NOT of the Russian People! As the Church has said, taught and shown for centuries.
Only 45% of US Bishops Say Homosexuality Disqualifies from Priesthood The University of Notre Dame's McGrath Institute for Church Life has published on July 17 a report containing twelve proposals for assessing candidates for the priesthood. Entitled, "Do You Know Them to Be Worthy?", the file was written by Father Thomas V. Berg and psychologist Timothy G. Lock. The report draws on research commissioned from the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate (CARA) and a consultation held at Notre Dame in September 2025. The proposals concern psychological assessment, candidates with particular psychological or developmental conditions, and formation for chastity and celibacy. It addresses candidates with conditions including ADHD, obsessive-compulsive disorder and autism spectrum disorder. On homosexual attraction, the Notre Dame authors note that a pause in formation may "more often than not" lead to a decision not to advance a candidate toward ordination. The authors think the pause …Ve

That's what you call a follower. Always wants to be part of the crowd and fit in. With a weak mind who can't think, for themselves and to avoid problems with them. That's a real pity. The only time you would ever see me following anyone was when I couldn't talk my friends out of something. So I would go to watch over them to try and stop any problems or protecting them. A friend of over 60 years just mentioned that to me last night in an email.
Monsignor Rossetti Continues Deliverance Ministry Despite Removal as Exorcist Monsignor Stephen Rossetti, removed in June as an exorcist by Washington Cardinal Robert McElroy, is continuing his deliverance ministry. In an August 3 email to subscribers, Monsignor Rossetti said he remains a priest in good standing in his home Diocese of Syracuse, New York, and will continue his work through the St. Michael Center, which operates within the territory of the Washington archdiocese. On June 3, Cardinal McElroy removed Rossetti as an archdiocesan exorcist and ended all affiliation between the Archdiocese of Washington and Rossetti's St. Michael Center. Monsignor Rossetti argues that he retains priestly faculties in several dioceses and exorcist faculties in two others. He also says his own bishop has encouraged him to continue the ministry. The June controversy followed Rossetti's eccentric claim that UFOs "are, in fact, demons." Cardinal McElroy - who had removed him for this claim - later …Ve
Read this garbage: Msgr Rossetti says " sexual abuse of minors by mothers could more easily be disguised as ordinary acts of cleaning, grooming or dressing children." If it is true that he said this, such a thought could only come from a rotten, corrupt mind. Our mothers -our blessed, beloved mothers- could never do such a thing! Thank you, Mom, for taking care of me since I was a baby!

Mexico: A Network, Two Cathedrals, and Three Bishops The IV National Meeting of the homosexual network ‘Red Católica Arcoíris de México’ was held from July 30 to August 2 in the Comarca Lagunera region, northern Mexico.

What We Learned About American Teenagers Supplying Guns to Cartels nytimes.com/…rld/americas/american-teenage-gun-tr… Our reporting revealed how Mexican criminal groups are relying on teenagers and young adults in border states like Arizona to help supply their weapons. By Paulina Villegas Reporting from Phoenix Oct. 3, 2026 Leer en español Earlier this year, I was in Phoenix watching three teenagers shoot high-caliber rifles into the desert. Each shot cracked through the air and echoed across the open expanse. These teenagers are part of a network of American high school students and young adults who serve as key conduits in transnational gun trafficking, buying military-style rifles and selling them directly to Mexican cartel operatives. According to law enforcement officials, trafficking experts and the American high schoolers I interviewed, the emerging network relies on American youths who are motivated not by cartel loyalty, but by profits and social status. The gun trade is often …Ve
