Today, Archbishop Carlo Viganò published the personal letter that he had sent to Pope Leo XIV in January. It appears that - despite Viganò having denied that Francis was a legitimate pope - he recognizes Leo XIV. Monsignor Viganò addresses Leo XIV as "Holiness," asks him to exercise his authority, and seeks an audience with him. Archbishop Viganò recounts his long career in Vatican service, argues that he was punished for exposing corruption and doctrinal problems in the Church, explains how retirement led him to reject Vatican II and the post-conciliar direction of the Church, defends himself against the charge of schism, and urges Leo XIV to break with the errors of the Francis era and the synodal project. The letter contains a noticeably heavy use of first-person pronouns and is full of self-reference, emphasis on personal integrity, descriptions of persecution and mistreatment, frequent presentation of himself as a key witness to major events, and relatively little self-criticism …More
"Behold Jesus Christ crucified, Who is the only foundation of our hope; He is our Mediator and Advocate; the victim and sacrifice for our sins. He is goodness and patience itself; His mercy is moved by the tears of sinners, and He never refuses pardon and grace to those who ask it with a truly contrite and humbled heart. -----St. Charles Borromeo."
HOPE Wait upon the Lord; be faithful to His commandments; He will elevate your hope, and put you in possession of His Kingdom. Wait upon Him patiently; wait upon Him by avoiding all sin. He will come, doubt it not; and in the approaching day of His visitation, which will be that of your death and His judgment, He will Himself crown your holy hope. Place all your hope in the Heart of Jesus; it is a safe asylum; for he who trusts in God is sheltered and protected by His mercy. To this firm hope, join the practice of virtue, and even in this life you will begin to taste the ineffable joys of Paradise. -----St. Bernard. Not only think of the road through which thou art travelling, but take care never to lose sight of that blessed country in which thou art shortly to arrive. Thou meetest here with passing sufferings, but wilt soon enjoy everlasting rest. When thou lookest up to the recompense everything thou dost or sufferest will appear light, and no more than a shadow; it bears no proportion …More

God Brings Good From Every Injustice The story of Nabot and Jezebel highlights the injustice of taking someone’s ancestral land, a violation of Mosaic law. While God’s justice may not be immediately apparent, it will be served in the afterlife. In the meantime, God uses these injustices to help us grow in holiness, teaching us to forgive and respond with charity, even in the face of suffering. Fr.

Hearing Voices, Demonic and Divine The Open Access version of this book, available at Hearing Voices, Demonic and Divine | Scientific …, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivative 4.0 license. Experiences of hearing the voice of God (or angels, demons, or other spiritual beings) have generally been understood either as religious experiences or else as a feature of mental illness. Some critics of traditional religious faith have dismissed the visions and voices attributed to biblical characters and saints as evidence of mental disorder. However, it is now known that many ordinary people, with no other evidence of mental disorder, also hear voices and that these voices not infrequently include spiritual or religious content. Psychological and interdisciplinary research has shed a revealing light on these experiences in recent years, so that we now know much more about the phenomenon of "hearing voices" than ever before. The present work …More
Why Does Leo XIV Appoint This Kind of Leadership to the Church? During Sunday Mass at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Archbishop Ronald Hicks of New York celebrated the New York Knicks’ NBA championship victory with an embarrassing display of fandom, which included nervous giggling and requests for applause. Holding up a No. 11 Knicks jersey, he told worshippers that he had 'caught Knicks fever' and had watched the entire championship-winning match. He then showcased a FIFA shirt and a Puerto Rican hat to highlight New York’s major events that day. The performance quickly attracted attention online. Catholics on social media ridiculed the Archbishop, questioning Pope Leo XIV’s decision to appoint him as Archbishop of New York.
Putin says he doesn't fear the UK because, "they can't even stop rubber boats invading their country or foreign men raping their women and kids." He also said the British people hate their leader.
Putin works for the Kremlin! This is funny! The only thing he fears is the Consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Then he won't be able to go through with the Kremlin's satanic plans to destroy Christianity.
Trump is asking where all the money in Ukraine has gone, and he estimates that they've poured in about 350 billion dollars. Trump knows that this money is being diverted and that this entire conflict is just a massive money laundering operation.
[Comment: Those are the suggestions for the sermons - in the future I'll try to find St. Anthony's full sermons] [Saint Anthony of Padua, XII-XIII Century, born: Lisbon, Kingdom of Portugal/died: Padua, Lombard League, Holy Roman Empire (aged 35), Portuguese Catholic priest and member of the Order of Friars Minor, Doctor of the Church, Canonized less than one year after his death, Doctor Evangelicus] SEPTUAGESIMA (First, the Gospel for Septuagesima: The kingdom of heaven is like to a householder, which is divided into two clauses.

(In the first clause of this Gospel you will find at least these themes for sermons or principles for preaching:) [PROLOGUE] (First, a sermon for forming the heart of a sinner and on the property of a tile: Take thee a tile.) 1.

"2. Note that the spiritual Jerusalem is threefold: first the Church Militant, second the faithful soul, third the heavenly homeland. In the Lord’s name, then, I will take a tile- the heart of anyone who will listen- and I will inscribe upon it the threefold City, namely, the articles of the Church’s faith, the virtues of the soul, and the reward of our heavenly homeland. I will comment on texts from each Testament, and expound them under seven headings."
06/15/2026 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. The article published yesterday on presstv.ir titled: Israeli firm linked to digital interference campaigns across several countries which draws on reports from Reuters on Thursday, addresses the issue of illegal interference in election processes in many countries by the Israeli company BlackCore. Any associations of the name with the globalist financial conglomerate BlackRock are misplaced here, as no evidence of any connections has been found. France’s digital interference watchdog Viginum has linked an Israeli company, BlackCore, to online influence and propaganda campaigns conducted across Europe, Africa, and the United States. The body announced the findings in a report on Sunday [06/07/2026], with its Chief Marc-Antoine Brillant and French Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu identifying operations that targeted France, Scotland, Angola, Togo, and New York City. One could, however, express outrage that the article contains anti-Semitic …
Barack Obama was using USAID to pretend to send money to a country for “aid” and instead laundering it to the Cayman Islands He would then use that money to fund and train “Rent-a-Riots” for protests to overthrow governments Sound familiar? Mike Benz on Joe Rogan: “A scandal during the Obama USAID era. We were running a number of rogue USAID operations in Cuba at the time. — I'm simply showing the American people where your tax dollars are going and how these things are structured in order to systematically fool you and to fool Congress and to fool the White House: — USAID pumped $1.2 billion in, and we sponsored these activist groups and these civil society organizations to learn how to use Facebook, learn how to use Twitter, lose, learn how to use hashtags, learn how to coordinate street protests so that everyone knows where to go, what street to show up on, what kind of slogans to know, to use in order to create the pro-democracy predicate for it.” He talks about how Obama funded …More
New York City überwacht Straßen mit KI-Sensoren New York City baut den Einsatz intelligenter Straßensensoren stark aus. Die Geräte sollen künftig an etwa 100 Standorten in allen fünf Bezirken installiert werden. Das Programm startete 2023 als Pilot mit 20 Sensoren und wird nun auf rund 80 weitere Standorte erweitert. Die KI-gestützten Sensoren zählen Fußgänger, Radfahrer, Busse und Fahrzeuge, messen Geschwindigkeiten und erkennen Verkehrsmuster sowie Beinahe-Unfälle. Die Aufnahmen werden in Echtzeit ausgewertet und angeblich sofort gelöscht, nur anonymisierte Daten bleiben demnach gespeichert. Ziel sei eine bessere Grundlage für sichere Straßenplanung – basierend auf tatsächlichem Verhalten statt kurzer manueller Zählungen. Die Verkehrsbehörde betont den Datenschutz, ein Teil der Daten solle öffentlich zugänglich gemacht werden. Smart street sensors could be watching your city … JETZT abonnieren und nichts mehr verpassen: Eva Herman Offiziell
[Saint John Vianney, XVIII-XIX Century, (aged 73), born: Dardilly, Lyonnais, Kingdom of France/died: Ars-sur-Formans, Ain, French Empire, Cure d’Ars, French Priest, patron saint of parish priests] LOST WORKS How is it, my dear brethren, that so few Christians behave with one end only in view -- to please God? Here is the reason, pure and simple. It is just that the vast majority of Christians are enveloped in the most shocking ignorance, so that, humanly speaking, they really do the very best they can. The result is that if you were to compare their intentions with those of pagans, you would not find any difference. Ah, dear Lord, how many good works are lost for Heaven! Others who are a little better informed are interested only in the esteem of their fellow men, and they try to dissemble as much as they can: their exterior seems good, while interiorly they are filled with duplicity and evil. Yes, my dear brethren, we shall see at the Judgment that the largest section of Christians …More
"Yes, my dear brethren, we shall see at the Judgment that the largest section of Christians practiced a religion of whim or caprice only -- that is to say, the greatest number of them practiced their religion merely from motives of routine, and very few sought God alone in what they did."
