Points VIII-IX - ‘The Spiritual Combat' by Fr. Dom Lorenzo Scupoli (1530-1610); First published in 1589 A.D.; pages 6-7

[Father Dom Lorenzo Scupoli – XVI-XVII Century AD; Otranto, Kingdom of Naples/Naples, Kingdom of Naples; (aged 79-80); Priest; Spiritual Writer]
“Point VIII ~ Of the hindrances to a Right Discernment of Things, and of the method to be adopted in order to understand them properly
The cause of our not rightly discerning all these things and many others is, that we conceive a love or hatred of them at first sight.
Our understanding is thus darkened, so that it cannot judge of them correctly.
Lest you fall into this delusion, take all possible care to keep your will pure and free from inordinate affection for any thing whatsoever.
When any object, then, is presented to you, view it with your understanding; and consider it maturely before you are moved by hatred to reject it, if it be a thing contrary to your inclinations, or by love to desire it, if it be pleasing to them.
For thus the understanding, being unclouded by passion, will be free and clear, and able to perceive the truth, and to …More

Leo XIV Must Get the Bishops' Appointments Right – Cardinal Burke

Leo XIV’s consistory in January did not involve a general debate, Cardinal Raymond Burke told Edward Pentin for his Substack.com-account on 16 January.
The consistory adopted a format closer to Francis’s synods, with discussion confined almost entirely to small groups:"All the discussion took place in the small group, and then in the general session there was simply a report from the secretaries."
Divide and Conquer
Burke added that the way the consistory was structured did not allow for so-called free interventions.
The two plenary sessions permitted only brief interventions: "Each intervention was limited to three minutes, so just 15 cardinals could speak in one session."
With more than 160 cardinals present, many were left unheard.
In the small groups, "the topics were assigned, and then there was a whole structure that had to be followed at the tables".
Every Pope Appoints the Bishops He Wants
Beyond the consistory itself, Cardinal Burke expressed concerns about the Pope’s many …More

Prayer to Our Lady of Sorrows

Our mother of sorrows, with strength from above you stood by the cross, sharing in the sufferings of Jesus, and with tender care you bore him in your arms, mourning and weeping.
We praise you for your faith, which accepted the life God planned for you. We praise you for your hope, which trusted that God would do great things in you. We praise you for your love in bearing with Jesus the sorrows of his passion.
Holy Mary, may we follow your example, and stand by all your children who need comfort and love.
Mother of God, stand by us in our trials and care for us in our many needs. Pray for us now and at the hour of our death.
Amen!

Polish Cardinal Attacks Good Friday Prayer as "Dramatically Untrue"

Cardinal Grzegorz Ryś said that the Polish wording of the Good Friday prayer for Jews had been changed 2022 because the previous text was 'so dramatically untrue'. He spoke about the Novus Ordo and not the prayer in the old liturgy.
The Cardinal made these remarks during a January press conference held to present the 29th annual Day of Judaism in the Catholic Church in Poland on 15 January. Cardinal Ryś was speaking in his capacity as Chairman of the Committee of the Polish Bishops’ Conference for Dialogue with Judaism.
Cardinal Ryś is one of the most liberal bishops in Poland and Leo XIV promoted him to Archbishop of Kraków on 26 November.
He added that the version pre-2022 contained teachings that were "if not heretical, then at least scandalous".
The change had been introduced despite the fact that the final Polish edition of another new missal had not yet been published. This was possible, Cardinal Ryś said, because the Dicastery for Divine Worship, led by Cardinal Arthur Roche, …More

Germany imports equivalent of an entire city from the third world in just one year – Allah's Willing Executioners

AI generator
by Olivia Murray
At the end of last month, Remix News
reported that the German government had admitted around 300,000 new foreigners over the course of 2025, only rejecting asylum petitions from a few hundred applicants—however, the outlet was woefully off in its numbers, and with new government data out now, that number needed to be increase-adjusted by roughly 33%, making the real total closer to 400,000, which teeters toward half-a-million.
As a member of the German Parliament told a local outlet:
‘At least 300,000 social migrants and so-called refugees, more like 400,000, in one year: that’s equivalent to a major German city. Anyone who fantasizes about a turnaround in view of this magnitude wants to deceive the citizens.’
The equivalent of an entire city…of third worlders…unskilled and unable to function in a first world economy…immediately jumping onto the taxpayers’ backs…bringing their disgusting culture of pedophilia, incest, and rape with them.

Blessed Elena Aiello - MESSAGES for our TIMES

Blessed Elena Aiello (1895-1961) -Mystic, Stigmatic, Victim Soul, Prophet & Foundress of the Minim Tertiaries of the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ
Blessed Sister Elena Aiello would experience terrible sufferings through her life especially on GOOD FRIDAY. On one such Good Friday, APRIL 16, 1954, Sister Aiello stated she received the following concerning message for the world: Then the Madonna appeared to me. She was dressed in black, with seven swords piercing Her Immaculate Heart. Coming closer, with an expression of profound sorrow, and with tears on her cheeks, she spoke to me, saying: ‘Listen attentively, and reveal to all:
‘My Heart is sad for so many sufferings in an impending world in ruin. The justice of Our Father is most offended. Men live in their obstinacy of sin. The wrath of God is near. Soon the world will be afflicted with great calamities, bloody revolutions, frightful hurricanes, and the overflowing of streams and the seas’.

Excuse me I forgot one more important thing. Our Church's are being torn down, desecrated and sold off to muslims. Remember Putin rebuilt and built ten's of thousands! They aren't going anywhere. But you can say good bye to ours. Are you starting to see now? Put your bias's away for a minute and see those things with NEW EYES!
Another proof Heaven is pleased with Russia and Putin. And Heaven is preparing her for her conversion And it will be quick! Unlike the rest of the world.
If you have eyes, you better start seeing. If you have ears, you better starting hearing.
How odd, two people who claim they are Catholic's can't see GOD in many things. Especially in Russia. Better get your act together now or regret it later.
It seems as if we are being punished for our sins. As GOD said we will be. While Russia is being Blessed. As it is obvious to see. For those who have eyes and actually see that is.

“Weed Them Out”: Catholic Archbishop Sounds Alarm over Homosexuality in West African Seminaries

“Weed Them Out”: Catholic Archbishop Sounds Alarm over Homosexuality in West African Seminaries

Archbishop John Bonaventure Kwofie of the Catholic Archdiocese of Accra in Ghana has voiced concern over what he described as a growing influence of homosexuality and gay culture within Catholic Seminaries in West Africa, urging Rectors and other Formators to take decisive action and remain faithful to the Church’s teachings on priestly formation.
In his Wednesday, January 14 speech at the opening of the 12th Regional Episcopal Conference of West Africa (RECOWA) Rectors’ Conference at St. Paul’s Catholic Seminary, Sowutuom in Accra, Archbishop Kwofie urged those entrusted with the formation of future Priests to carefully discern and nurture Priestly vocations from the outset, warning that inadequate formation at the entry level could contribute to the emergence of homosexual practices within Seminaries.
“I am going to talk about one thing that is growing up like a monster in the Seminaries. Please do your best to weed out people of such orientation from our Seminaries because it …

Pope Francis has advised that men with deep-seated homosexual tendencies should not be admitted to seminaries, a position he reinforced in closed-door meetings in 2024, according to multiple reports
. While he has emphasized welcoming all people into the Church, he has expressed concerns about a "gay culture" in seminaries and the potential for candidates to live "double lives"
Closed-Door Remarks: In May 2024, during a meeting with Italian bishops, the Pope reportedly said that gay men should not be admitted to priestly formation. He argued that there is "already too much 'frociaggine'" (a derogatory Italian term for faggotry or gayness) in seminaries.
Reiteration in June: Reports indicate the Pope repeated this sentiment in June 2024 to priests in Rome, stating that while homosexual individuals should be welcomed and accompanied, they should not be admitted to the seminary.

Official Stance: Despite the controversy, the Vatican affirmed that the Pope …More

Migrants Make Up 80% of Train Theft Arrests in the UK – Allah's Willing Executioners

Migrants are vastly overrepresented in UK crime statistics, with new data revealing they are the suspects in 80% of all train theft arrests despite making up just 10% of the population.
Analysis from the Centre for Migration Control (CMC) shows that foreign nationals accounted for 79.3% of arrests for theft of passenger property across Britain’s transport network during 2024–2025.
A total of 9,771 arrests were recorded by British Transport Police over the period. Of these, 3,688 involved foreign nationals, representing 37.7% of all arrests. Migrants also accounted for 36.6% of arrests for sexual offences, 35.7% for violent crimes, and 39.6% for drug-related offences. In raw numbers, this equates to 225 migrant arrests for sexual offences, 900 for violence, 187 for drugs, and 304 for theft of passenger property.
Robert Bates, Research Director of the CMC, told GB News: “Immigration has caused a crime wave on British trains and public transport. Immigrants are vastly overrepresented …

Trump to Tell WEF Globalists Their ‘New World Order’ Is Failing

President Donald Trump is set to march straight into the lion’s den of globalist power at the World Economic Forum’s annual summit in Davos, Switzerland, armed with his unapologetic America First message and ready to declare that their long-promised “New World Order” is collapsing before their eyes.
For decades, the WEF has served as the glittering headquarters of the elite’s vision: open borders, unchecked free trade, and unelected supranational control over national economies and sovereignty. Trump’s decision to appear at this year’s gathering is nothing less than a bold, in-person repudiation of that entire ideology.
This year’s official theme—“A Spirit of Dialogue”—feels like a desperate PR slogan to many observers, as the Davos crowd scrambles to project an image of inclusivity and openness while facing the reality of a returning U.S. president who has repeatedly rejected their multilateral schemes, climate lockdowns, and centralized global economic planning.

An Ordinariate for Old Mass Catholics Not a Good Solution – Bishop Schneider

On 13 January, Bishop Athanasius Schneider spoke with the Confraternity of Our Lady of Fatima about the current state of the Church. Below are ten key takeaways, followed by the full video.
- Synodality is becoming a code word to further dilute the clarity of the Catholic faith.
- We are turning the Church into a permanent debating club and a kind of parliament, which goes against the divinely established structure of the Church. Synodal meetings are a waste of time and money, and they take bishops and lay people away from the vital work of evangelisation.
- The liturgy is the primary duty of the Church: to adore and worship God worthily.
- I am not convinced that an ordinariate for the traditional liturgy is a good solution. It would isolate those attached to the traditional liturgy, but the Mass should be for everyone. The traditional Latin Mass must be at the heart of the Church again, and become commonplace.
- A bishop should not have the right to impede or limit the traditional …More

Gut Cure: How to restore your microbiome so your body can do what it was designed to do
Your gut microbiome acts as a command centre for digestion, immunity, metabolism and brain health; when microbial diversity drops, symptoms often go beyond digestion.
Short-chain fatty acids (“SCFAs”), especially butyrate, are essential compounds made by healthy gut bacteria that help repair your gut lining, calm inflammation, stabilise blood sugar and support mental clarity.
Modern diets heavy in seed oils (including linoleic acid), emulsifiers and ultra-processed foods disrupt beneficial bacteria and reduce butyrate production, leaving your gut undernourished even if you eat “healthy” foods.
Simple changes, such as replacing seed oils with stable fats like butter, ghee or coconut oil, can lower inflammation, rebalance your microbiome and help your body begin healing from the inside out.

NEW CHARLOTTE-FILM MUST SHOW HOW THE BISHOP INTERPRETS VATICAN COUNCIL II IRRATIONALLY AND SCHISMATICALLY

NEW CHARLOTTE-FILM MUST SHOW HOW THE BISHOP INTERPRETS VATICAN COUNCIL II IRRATIONALLY AND SCHISMATICALLY

Peter Kwasniewski is not formally telling the bishops in Charlotte, San Antonio, Detroit etc that 1) the blue passages in Vatican Council II dominate 2) the red is not an exception for the blue 3) the Rational Premise and Inference must be chosen 4) Vatican Council II, the Creeds, Councils and Catechisms must be interpreted with an invisible and not visible baptism of desire (LG14) and the conclusion is traditional.
So from where does the liberalism of the bishops still come from? Not Vatican Council II, anymore!
Kwasniewski is not saying this in his conversations with Larry Chapp and disciples of Balthazar, Rahner and Ratzinger, who used the False Premise to interpret Vatican Council II, as Kwasniewski does today.

At the Consistory Pope Leo did not tell the cardinals to interpret Vatican Council II, the Creeds, Councils and Catechisms with only the Rational Premise and …More

Saint Paul, Premier Ermite
Saint Paul, le premier des Ermites, eut pour historien saint Jérôme. Orphelin à l’âge de quinze ans, il abandonna ses biens et se retira dans le désert où un palmier verdoyant, symbole de ses vertus, lui fournit la nourriture et le vêtement. Il méditait dans la solitude la science des sciences qui est de connaître Jésus-Christ, et le Père que le Christ révèle aux humbles. Il vécut de la sorte jusqu’à l’âge de 113 ans, goûtant dans l’exercice héroïque de l’oraison et de la pénitence la suavité du joug du Seigneur.
Un jour, saint Antoine, un vieillard de quatre-vingt-dix ans, vint le visiter sur l’ordre de Dieu. Bien qu’ils ne se connussent pas, ils se saluèrent cependant par leurs noms et s’entretinrent de conversations spirituelles ; alors le corbeau qui avait coutume d’apporter à Paul un demi-pain, apporta un pain entier. Quand le corbeau se fut éloigné, Paul dit : « Vois, le Seigneur qui est …
