A newly emerged letter from pro-homosexual Cardinal Tucho Fernández, soft-porn author and Prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, has revealed that he warned the German bishops in 2024 against proceeding with their proposed homosexual blessings. Dated 18 November 2024, the letter was addressed to Bishop Stephan Ackermann of Trier, who is responsible for liturgy. It was published today on X.com by Mexican priest Jorge Enrique Mújica, head of Zenit.org. In the letter, Tucho states that the German bishops’ proposed guidelines for blessings “effectively legitimise the status of such couples” and therefore contradict his homosexual pamphlet Fiducia Supplicans. He also criticises the German text for creating what amounts to “a kind of liturgy or para-liturgy” for homosexual blessings. Specifically, Tucho rejected: • the treatment of homosexual unions as a status to be publicly recognised, • the inclusion of ritual elements resembling marriage ceremonies, • prescribed …Engeta

On 2 May, the Apostolic Nuncio to Poland, Antonio Filipazzi, conferred the Sacrament of Confirmation in the Roman rite on 50 young people close to the Institute of the Good Shepherd in Poland. The ceremony took place at the former Camaldolese church in Bielany, Warsaw. Afterwards, a Mass was celebrated, with the nuncio assisting from the throne. The Institute of the Good Shepherd has been working in the Archdiocese of Warsaw for 10 years. Archbishop Filipazzi is a papal loyalist. He praised Pope Francis in 2025 as an "untiring shepherd of the universal Church" who devoted "all his energy to the Church and to all humanity". #newsRokhnoszqy

The agency KNA notes that Leo XIV's thinking was shaped by the ideas and terminology of Latin American liberation theology, referring to an address he delivered on 2 March 2002 in Iquitos, Peru. This text has been published in a book released today, which contains essays, sermons and speeches from the years 2001 to 2013. Key quotes from Fr Robert Prevost: - The reality of unjust poverty and marginalisation is one of the most pressing problems in today's world, not only in the "Third World". - No one can be a Christian today and remain detached from the "cry of the poor" and the struggle for justice. The destitution of millions of people is a true 'sacrament' of sin in the world. - Development is an integral part of evangelisation. Pastoral activity goes beyond what is merely "religious", in accordance with the Church's social teaching and the urgency of the preferential option for the poor.' This must be applied not only to indigenous peoples, who are often the poorest of the poor, but …Engeta

Christians of all denominations now make up less than two per cent of the population of the Holy Land, Benedictine Abbot Nikodemus Schnabel told Aid to the Church in Need on 29 April. “My concern is that the Holy Land could become a kind of Christian Disneyland,” he said. He warned that while the holy sites may remain, the region could lose its indigenous Christian communities, leaving places central to Christianity without ordinary Christian family life. He said that economic hardship was a major driver of emigration and noted that many local Christians depended on tourism, which had struggled since 2019 due to the pandemic and regional conflict. “People are leaving because they see no future,” he said. #newsPgoaemvkjx

Staff Writer May 4, 2026 News Two years after the Archdiocese of Los Angeles reached an $880 million settlement with men and women who survived childhood sexual abuse at the hands of Roman Catholic priests and clergy in their diocese, the Catholic Archdiocese of New York is following suit, agreeing to pay more than $800 million to its own sexual abuse survivors. So far, the Catholic Church has paid out more than $5 billion in settlements, which has bankrupted at least 19 dioceses. The archdiocese has been planning this for a while. Along with selling off buildings and laying off staff, including the sale of their New York headquarters for $100 million, the Archdiocese is suing its insurance company, Chubb. The archdiocese claims that “even though we have paid them over $2 billion in premiums by today’s standards, [Chubb] is now attempting to evade their legal and moral contractual obligation to settle covered claims which would bring peace and healing to victim-survivors.” Chubb …
In his book Popes, Dollars, and War, Italian journalist Massimo Franco claims that Leo XIV was elected, in part, to help bring American donors and dollars back to the Vatican. Franco found an anonymous cardinal who said that "the combination of doctrine and dollars won". And: "The American bishops were tired of being criticised [under Francis] and decided to make themselves heard [...] The new incentive is money, first used against Francis and then in the conclave to elect Prevost." During the pre-conclave meetings, Japanese cardinal Tarcisio Kikuchi said: "Are politics involved in the Conclave? No, I don’t think so. But maybe money." Cardinal Reinhard Marx dedicated a full day of the pre-conclave discussion to the Holy See’s finances. Cardinal Müller responded back then, "Enough! We have to elect the successor of Peter, not Judas!" At a book presentation in Rome on 27 April, Cardinal Gerhard Müller rejected the hypothesis that money played a role in Leo XIV’s election with an outright …Engeta
25 New Million-Dollar Donors: On 2 May, Leo XIV held his first audience with The Papal Foundation, an American Catholic philanthropy group.

Over its 38-year history, the Foundation has donated more than $270 million to papal charitable projects.

William Makis @MakisMedicine BREAKING NEWS: Mayo Clinic is offering me an "Executive Director" position for up to $400k Oh and they're not the only one. My email inbox is suddenly filling up with Executive job offers from several big Pharmaceutical companies. So this is what I get for helping 9000+ Cancer patients with Ivermectin & Mebendazole and leading the largest Ivermectin Cancer Project in the world? After talking about a New Florida Cancer Clinic? If they can't sabotage me, they'll just buy me out? I have to admit, it is mildly amusing. Ten years ago, I may have jumped at something like this. It's almost tailor made for me. But at this stage of my life...can't say I felt even a hint of temptation. They really don't know me very well. Sorry, Mayo Clinic. I'm building a Cancer Center in Florida. It's going to be a bit different from yours.
For the record, just another note about Dr. Makis. I did a post on his use of Ivermectin as a possible cure for cancer. Guess what Google did? They took it down. Apparently I violated community standards. I’ve yet to figure out which ones.
This is one of the unknown miracles of the Tilma of Guadalupe: The stars on her mantle aren't decoration, they are a music. The stars on the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe perfectly align with the constellations over Mexico on December 12, 1531. The stars are arranged in emmission (as if viewed from outside the solar system, looking toward Earth) rather than reflection (as seen from Earth's surface looking up). But there is a hidden code. If you take the position of the stars and the flowers on her dress and place them on a musical staff, they create a perfect, harmonious melody. It is literally a song from Heaven. Listen:
Tue Apr 28, 2026 - 9:46 am EDTWed Apr 29, 2026 - 5:53 am EDT (LifeSiteNews) — A German theologian and vice president of a Catholic lay organization claimed that Cardinal Reinhard Marx implementing same-sex “blessings” in Germany was done “in consultation with Rome.” Thomas Söding, the vice president of the heterodox Central Committee of German Catholics (ZdK), was asked about Pope Leo XIV’s response to Marx implementing “blessings” for “couples of all gender identities” in an interview with Deutschlandfunk. Söding stated that what the Pope said “about blessing ceremonies is, as I see it, a kind of peace offering to the universal Catholic Church, which is, after all, torn in two on this issue.” “In Germany, what should and can happen with same-sex couples has been discussed with Rome, and that is not going to change,” he asserted. He said that the heterodox “blessing” guidelines came out of the German Synodal Way, which “is a response to an unresolved issue.” “At present, the …
