"I know many bishops, and almost all of them — mostly from Western Europe — tell me that they also want to ordain married men," said Bishop Johan Bonny of Antwerp in an interview with Katholisch.de on 2 April. In March, he announced his intention to ordain married men as priests by 2028. "I have not yet heard a Catholic bishop tell me, 'Even if the Pope gives me the possibility, I will not ordain married men.' They know this in Rome as well." Bishop Bonny worked in the Vatican for eleven years and is familiar with the different interests at play: "In Rome, they understand the situation here, and I know bishops and cardinals who support this solution, at least in Western Europe." He believes that the ordination of married men as priests is "a great necessity". "The consensus is there." Until the 1960s, a diocese such as Antwerp's had almost 1,500 active priests, as well as several hundred more who were retired. Now, the diocese has fewer than 100 priests, half of whom come from abroad. …نور
“XVIII ~ The Striking Devil Prov. xix. Striking hammers are prepared for the bodies of sinners. If you want to know what sort of stroke the devil can give, hear how he struck Job, chapter ii, "Satan went forth from the presence of the Lord, and struck Job with a grevious ulcer from the sole of his foot to the top of his head. Then Job took a tile and scraped off the corrupt matter, sitting on a dung-hill. Now when Job's friends heard all the evil that had come upon him, they came to him. For they had made an appointment to come together and visit and comfort him. And when they had lifted up their eyes afar off, they did not know him. And crying, they wept and sprinkled dust on their heads. And they sat down with him on the ground for seven days and seven nights. And no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his grief was very great. The devil gave Job one stroke, only one stroke. That one stroke was so terrible that it covered all his body with sores and ulcers. That one stroke made …نور
"St. Basil says, that in hell there are will be worms without number eating the flesh, and their bites will be unbearable." St. Teresa says that she found the entrance into hell filled with these venomous insects. If you cannot bear the sight of ugly vermin and creeping things on the earth, will you be content with the sight of the venomous things in hell, which are a million times worse? The bite or the pricking of one insect on the earth sometimes keeps you awake, and torments you for hours. How will you feel in hell, when millions of them make their dwelling-place in your mouth, and ears, and eyes, and creep all over you, and sting you with their deadly stings through all eternity."

John Kiriakou: "In all the years I was in the CIA, every time an Israeli Prime Minister came to the United States... they would say 'please bomb Iran.' And every President would say no... until this President."
Well, it's true. He's not the only one who has said any of those things. Just look at all the times that bibi has begged and pleaded, lied and threatened about Iran having a nuclear bomb. Yet it was confirmed by many, they didn't have any such thing. Not in the process. Not two weeks away. Not ready to use them. None of those lies were true. Yet he kept at it for decades. Even the democrats didn't fall for that trick. But it took trump and his administration to bomb them and obey their masters in Israel.
Dr. Maalouf @realMaalouf Islamic scholar in California, Uthman Farooq, has a message to Americans: “No one can stop Islam in America. This is NOT your country, this is OUR country. This is the land of Allah. If you want to live in a place with no Muslims, I suggest you go to hell.”
Franciscan Father Francesco Patton wrote the meditations for tonight's Stations of the Cross at the Colosseum in Rome with Pope Leo XIV. Fr Patton served as Custos of the Holy Land from 2016 to 2025. On April 1, he told VaticanNews.va that the inspiration comes from "current reality" and that the meditations are meant to inspire political "change". The Vatican press office published the text today. Traditionally a penitential and contemplative devotion, the Via Crucis is repurposed here as a vehicle for contemporary socio-political reflection. The text shifts from the Passion of Christ to war, refugees, human trafficking, surveillance, deportation, the media, the economy, prisons, hostages, and crackdowns on protests. Notably absent, however, are abortion, euthanasia, and gender ideology. One acclamation reads: "For migrants, the displaced, and refugees: Comfort us, O Mother." In the first station, the meditation talks about political and economic power "to start or end a war… the power …نور

For the first time in 58 years, San Sebastián held a Good Friday procession. I estimated about 400 penitents took part and about 20,000 people turned out to watch (10 percent of the population). Yes, I know it’s not like in Seville or Malaga, but it’s still a miracle.
The Apostles Creed is the oldest statement of Catholic belief and apostolic witness. Its Fifth Article, that Jesus descended into hell, is a mystery to be unveiled.

Remain with a lie is inhuman but he is risen Now Trump is lie and in bed with antichrist (Jared buying of 666 fifth ave starting to to see in a new light)
First remember, it was trump who called Putin 3 weeks ago for help out of the mess he made. Yet didn't listen to him. Now they are turning to Putin to help end this madness that trump and bibi made. Unfortunately, not even Putin can stop this. That is not what GOD wants. That is not His Will for peace. Not our time. ------------- As the U.S.-Israel military campaign against Iran intensifies into a full regional crisis, Gulf and Arab capitals have abandoned Washington as their diplomatic anchor and are converging on Moscow — with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty, and leaders from the UAE, Oman, and Turkey all reaching directly to Vladimir Putin in an unprecedented geopolitical realignment. Putin, positioning Russia as the region's sole credible stabilizer, has formally opened what the Kremlin is calling a coordinated mediation track — with spokesperson Dmitry Peskov confirming Russia stands ready to make its "strongest contribution" to …نور

Synodality in Action: During the Holy Thursday liturgy, Bishop Michael Martin of Charlotte, North Carolina, delegated the foot-washing ritual to lay men and women. The Eucharist was at the Jesuits' church. Bishop Martin participated in the ritual himself, but he also allowed members of the laity to perform much of the optional Mandatum.
Brian Williams on Twitter: Meanwhile in Charlotte, Bishop Martin delegated the washing of feet on Holy Thursday to lay men and women. +Martin did participate to some degree, but at this Jesuit parish where he chose to celebrate Holy Thursday, the laity assumed the role of the clergy for much of the (optional) mandatum.
Disgraceful. Yet, his mockery of this holy practice will only drive alert and thoughtful Catholics away from the Conciliarist religion back to the authentic Catholic religion offered exclusively by the SSPX.
On Good Friday in Clonmel, hundreds joined the Way of the Cross to Holy Cross Hill. Led barefoot by Bishop Alphonsus Cullinan, the pilgrimage,organised by Indian Catholics, reflected unity, devotion and shared faith.
