Italian Secular Press Features Roman Mass: Today's front page of Il Giornale gives prominence to the Mass in the Roman rite. Nico Spuntoni reports on growing concern within the Consistory over the situation of the FSSPX, with the headline: "The Lefebvrist Rift That Alarms the Consistory." Alongside it, editor-in-chief Tommaso Cerno devotes his editorial to the place of Latin in the Church, arguing under the title "Why the Future Speaks Latin" that the long-held assumption that Latin belongs only to the past deserves to be reconsidered.
Il direttore de Il Giornale, Tommaso Cerno, ha dedicato grande risalto in prima pagina alla Messa tradizionale in latino e all'articolo del corrispondente vaticano Nico Spuntoni sulle crescenti preoccupazioni interne nei concistori riguardo alla situazione della Fraternità Sacerdotale San Pio X (SSPX).
"FSSPX Are Schismatic Priests": Cardinal Gerhard Müller told EWTN that Catholics “cannot go” to Masses offered by the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (SSPX): “They shouldn't go and cannot go, participate in the masses of the schismatic priests.” He added that Catholics must accept not only dogmas such as the Trinity and the Incarnation, but also that “the Church is the visible presence of the Body of Jesus Christ.” Regarding the FSSPX's planned episcopal consecrations, he said: “Consecrations without the Pope are absolutely impossible against the will of God, and who is working against God will be excommunicated.” The Vatican has so far never used the word "schism" or "schismatic" in context with the FSSPX.
Cardinal Müller's remarks to EWTN (June 26) were strikingly uncompromising: "Catholics cannot go to these schismatic priests."
Has there ever been a time like this? The FSSPX is not doing something new, as throughout history of the Church there has been consecrations without papal aproval and nothing happened, because the salvation of souls is #1 and above everything else, BUT we are living in such dangerous times that we no longer distinguish good from bad and light with dark, this is why the FSSPX is doing what's best for their sheep and I (even though im not one of them), stands with them.
This is Part One of the interview for the British audience I gave a few days ago, where I answer questions not so much on the contemporary politics but on Russian Soviet History. Why did the Soviet Union collapse? Why did Putin come to power? Why is he so popular in Russia and so much detested in some West European ruling circles? Dr. Brovkin served as an Associate Professor of Soviet History at Harvard University, he is the author of numerous books on Russian History and politics. His latest book: From Vladimir Lenin to Vladimir Putin: Russia in Search of Its identity (Routledge, London 2024) is available from Amazon and Routledge.com. Yu can find: Russia under Yeltsin and Putin, Russia under the Communist Regime, War in Ukraine, European History and other playlists. THESE WERE CONVERTED TO PODCASTS on You Tube music. FOLLOW me ON X TWITTER Vladimir Brovkin (@BrovkinVla97791) on X. I HAVE JUST BEGUN AUDIO PODCASTS WITH RSS.COM Video Putin: Why is He Loved, or Feared?
I am corrected by Dr. Brovkin. It's not 83 -84% favorabilty but 86%! I thought it was higher. But I went by someone I watch. I use to see many interviews with many people and their happiness I knew he was off. But still a very high number for a man in office so long. And they will continue to vote for him as long as he runs. Which came from each interview. But I don't think there will be a next time to vote for anyone. I think Putin's time is over. He has done all he can and hopefully will see it till the end of his term. With GOD stepping in, or I should say, stepping back to let The Great Chastisement begin. As we are only in the very beginnings of it. The way I see it is, as well as others and from Putin himself, while he is going slowly in Ukraine to save lives of men on both sides. GOD is allowing things to go slow so He can call souls to Himself. Does anyone else see it that way? Or am I the only one to see this?
"Church Can Never Accept Homosexual Lifestyle": Following a pro-homosexual Eucharist presided over by Washington Cardinal Robert McElroy at Georgetown University on June 20, New York Father Gerald Murray noted that McElroy was attempting to “let the steamroller keep rolling down the street” in order to promote homosexual sins within the Church. “The propaganda continues,” said Father Murray. Cardinal McElroy holds the view that acceptance of the homosexual lifestyle is “inevitable.” “That will never happen; it can never happen,” Father Murray concluded.
Fr. Murray on Cardinal McElroy's decision to celebrate Mass at a recent LGBT gathering in Washington, DC: "McElroy is trying to roll this steamroller down the road further, saying that it's inevitable that the church is going to accept the homosexual lifestyle. It never will"
Historia herezji Arianizmu niechaj dodaje nam otuchy. Większość Kościoła wtedy zboczyła z kursu, ale jednostki uratowały Kościół. Święty Mikołaju módl się za nami, który publicznie dałeś w zęby Ariuszowi, aż nakrył się nogami, a ojcowie Soboru mieli jednocześnie sen, że się nie mylił.
How wonderful to see GOD at work with the Russian Orthodox. Our Sweet Lady leading her beloved Russian children to a quick conversion. Almost instantly. No one can deny what Padre "Saint" Pio and others have said about this. And he said it more than once with "Great Confidence". And there are many who agree. Especially the best Priests! And even not so great Priests. But they all agree. The Blessed Mother is guiding her beloved Russia into a smooth and quick Conversion. Russia given so many honours and Blessings and Graces. But some refuse to see GOD'S Hand as well as The Blessed Mother's hand in all of this. Begrudging them and Russia for receiving them. To spread propaganda is what they prefer. This is why Russians will convert easily and smoothly. While America will be very slow and "RUSSIA" will have to teach them how. Americans live in sin and enjoy it. It will be very hard to let go of them. At least they will convert in the end. To finally accept GOD'S WILL! So many Blessings …Okuningi
26 neoconservative theology professors from Franciscan University of Steubenville - including Scott Hahn, John Bergsma, Michael Waldstein, Mark Miravalle, and university president Fr. Dave Pivonka - has published an open letter urging the FSSPX not to proceed with episcopal consecrations without a pontifical mandate. They represent a substantial portion of Steubenville's influential Theology Department (about 30 faculty members). Their argument is that no crisis in the Church justifies an act that would further damage the Church's visible unity with the Pope.
Open letter addressed to the SSPX leadership by nearly all the theologians of Franciscan University of Steubenville. «We write not as adversaries, but as fellow Christians who love the Church, which is built on Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition, and who, like you, long for the salvation of souls. Your love for the beauty of the traditional liturgy and your reverence in worship witness your earnest desire to serve the Lord. We share this love and desire.... The treasures of Catholic Tradition do not belong outside communion with Peter; they belong at the heart of the Church.»
Please attend to the nearly 50 "I reject" proclamations of the PoF, address them and stop the duck and hide, escape and evasion sophistry. It didn't work before and ain't gonna work now. M O D E R N I S M: the synthesis of all heresies.
Influencer Damián María Montes, after 20 years of religious life, revealed on Instagram that he has left the priesthood and expressed his hope that through his future endeavors he will be able to to "bring some beauty, thought, and humanity to the world."
Damián Montes Nieto has announced in an Instagram video that he is finally leaving the priesthood: “I have decided to withdraw from the exercise of priestly ministry.” He was a Redemptorist and ordained to the priesthood in 2013 at the Santuario del Perpetuo Socorro in Granada, Spain. He prefers to keep private the “serious reasons” that turned his ministry into a “very sad and very difficult” experience. Looking to the future, he hopes for “the opportunity for a new life, shared with someone, or to start my own family.” He has taken up employment within an educational community and has assumed the role of Academic Vice Director at an international institution. Montes was "born a poet and an artist.” As a missionary priest, Montes had the opportunity to visit countries such as India, Honduras, Thailand, and Colombia, as well as various cities in Spain and Italy. Radical Pro-Homosex Priest Montes was one of the most openly homosex-affirming Catholic priests in Spain. In a 2021 …Okuningi
Cardinal Gerhard Müller spoke at the June 26 consistory about the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX), IlGiornale.it reports. He addressed the FSSPX's allegations that the Vatican has deviated from the Church's magisterium. Cardinal Müller proposed preparing a response to the Fraternity that would affirm that Rome has never abandoned the path of Catholicism, contrary to their claims. He also said that, following Wednesday's episcopal consecrations, many Lefebvrists would seek to enter into full canonical communion with the Church. The Vatican should prepare to welcome them back by proposing a structure modelled on the Pontifical Commission Ecclesia Dei, which was established by Pope John Paul II in 1988. Cardinal Müller's intervention was received without comment during the session. Picture: Vatican Media, #newsVrgqbzlram

The implementation phase of the synod “will mark a new stage in the reception of the Second Vatican Council,” Cardinal Mario Grech warned the consistory on Saturday. He is a Cardinal and the Vatican's Secretary of the Synod. His lengthy speech, which was around 3,000 words long, was published on Zenit.org. Much of it was repetitive, focusing on buzzwords such as listening, discernment, communion, participation, the 'exchange of gifts', implementation, and 'conversation in the Spirit'. In terms of density of ideas, the speech was low. The essential message was • the Synod is not over. • implementation is the real work. • synodality should become part of the Church's ordinary life. • this is the next stage of Vatican II. Two key sentences were: "The discernment of the signs of the times, ecumenical and interreligious dialogue, and the commitment to justice and peace become measures of the Church's diakonia." "In this way, the implementation phase becomes a new stage in the reception …Okuningi
On June 25, skinny Paulist Father Chris Lawton celebrated an annual homosex Eucharist at the Stonewall National Monument in Christopher Park, New York City. Around 150 people attended, reports NcrOnline.org. The Eucharist was organized by the notorious homosexual parish St. Paul the Apostle in Manhattan. It took place at the start of 'New York Pride weekend'. The location was disfigured with dozens of rainbow flags. Fr Lawton apologized to homosexuals for times when the Church had failed to recognize God's presence in them. He believes that „transgender Catholics” continue to face unique injustice within the Church. He added that there is a movement toward inclusion of homosexuals underway in the Church: "The train has left the station. And we are going somewhere." Since February 6, the Archdiocese of New York has been led by Monsignor Ronald Hicks - another of Leo XIV's bad appointments. #newsBcfrbukhdr
"The 28th of June anniversary of the Stonewall riots has evolved into a month-long state-mandated worship of people who engage in certain sexual activities, complete with a special flag, parades and forced curricula in schools. In fact, it has become almost a state religion based solely on people who engage in specific" Immoral acts.
In his May 2026 lecture at the Pontifical Urbaniana University, Cardinal Víctor "Tucho" Fernández said: "Sometimes it takes a madman, desperately in love with his land and his people, capable of separating the Gospel from certain cultural husks that have become attached to it but are not an essential part of its message, and of rereading it in the light of what his people are living today." Tucho added: "Ultimately, it is the Gospel, written within an ancient culture, that now acquires another 'flesh' in popular rites, venerated images, aphorisms and customs, reflections, ways of living the faith, and in music." On 25 June, Carlos Daniel Lasa wrote on ElWanderer.com that Tucho's contextual theology displaces Revelation and makes the lived experience of each people the decisive point for theology. Tucho relativises immutable doctrine and reduces theology to historical interpretation. Lasa's central thesis is even more far-reaching: Pope Francis sought to "refound" the Church, appointed …Okuningi
The Apostolic faith speaks to the eternal essence of God and the unchanging struggle of humans which is resolved by the timeless sacrifice on Calvary. Tucho claims that what he doesn't like in the Apostolic faith are cultural accretions. He is wrong. Lace, the mitre, and even his red zucchetto are cultural accretions. The seven deadly sins and sins which cry out to Heaven for vengeance are as fundamental to salvation as DNA is to life. This may be painful for Tucho. My heart goes out to him. But salvation comes from taking up your cross and requires sacrifice of your own preferences for the sake of Christ.

Pope Leo XIV appoints new bishop of Ponce, … According to a Vatican press release, Ramírez was born in Villalba, Puerto Rico, on Nov. 17, 1967.
