Cardinal Grech: We Need Women Calling for "Female Priesthood"

Cardinal Mario Grech, Secretary General of the Synod of Bishops, claimed at the German Catholic Congress (Katholikentag) in Würzburg that both Germany’s Synodal Path and the global Synod on Synodality are inspired “through the same protagonist: the Holy Spirit.”
Katholisch.de reported on May 17 that Grech described the Church as a “symphony,” saying that synodality is about harmony rather than the sum of individual opinions.
Theology student Finja Miriam Weber, a member of the German Synodal Assembly, responded by asking who decides which “instruments” people in the Church are allowed to play. She added that, as a woman, she is excluded from certain roles simply because she is female.
After applause from the audience, Grech replied that the Holy Spirit is the conductor of the symphony. Before the discussion could continue, the moderator ended the exchange.
However, Cardinal Grech later approached Weber and told her: “We need people like you.”

Trump Fed chair pick Kevin Warsh confirmed by Senate

Trump's Fed chair pick Kevin Warsh confirmed by US Senate
Donald Trump's Federal Reserve chair has been confirmed by the US Senate in a vote that fell largely along party lines.
Kevin Warsh won confirmation on Wednesday with 54 votes in favour and 45 against. He will succeed Jerome Powell, whose tenure featured multiple clashes with the US president over interest rates. His term ends on Friday.
Warsh's confirmation was the narrowest margin for the Senate approval of a Fed chair since the process was implemented in 1977.
Only one Democrat, Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman, voted in favour to confirm Warsh.
Warsh is facing a difficult balancing act when he steps into the role, with President Trump having made clear he expects his pick to lower the Fed's interest rate at a time when the US-Israel war in Iran is driving up the cost of living.
Usually, the central bank would seek to hold or raise interest rates when inflation is on the rise, to keep a lid on price increases. Indeed, …

Worse Than Germany: The Spanish Episcopal Conference will award the music prize '2025 ¡Bravo!' to Rosalía for her 'Lux Tour'. The tour heavily incorporates Catholic imagery and symbols, including confessionals, crosses, Marian references, processions, and a stage version of the huge incense burner from Santiago de Compostela. These elements are combined with nightclub aesthetics, sexual provocation, and reinterpretations of religious themes.

Bishop Barron Hosts ‘Married’ Homosexual, Father via Surrogacy Dave Rubin on Podcast

Bishop Barron REFUSED to challenge or address Dave Rubin’s so-called ‘marriage’ or purchase of children from surrogate mothers.
Bishop Robert Barron hosted “married” homosexual and father via surrogacy Dave Rubin on his podcast released Thursday.
Barron, an influential intellectual, did not challenge or address at all Rubin’s homosexuality, so-called “marriage,” or fatherhood with his partner during their hourlong discussion. Rather than debate their fundamental differences of religion and worldview, the pair discussed public figures and applauded others’ ability to amicably discuss differences of opinion.
The bishop’s failure to substantively address Rubin’s beliefs and lifestyle during a public discussion is significant because they are stumbling blocks to his salvation, as the Catholic Church teaches. The two said they are planning to have a follow-up conversation with “a lot more to cover,” but have not specified a date.
In his post on the discussion to X, Barron said they …

Milan Archdiocese Builds Interreligious, Relativistic "Mega-Monastery"

Milan Archdiocese has announced plans for a new interreligious “Ambrosian Monastery.”
The futuristic religious complex will be built in the MIND district on the former Expo grounds. Designed by architect Stefano Boeri, the project includes a triangular church and a triangular cloister. The large covered structure has been compared to a shopping mall or even a ski-jump platform.
According to the Archdiocese, a permanent resident community is expected to live at the site, although no religious institute or monastic order has yet been identified.
The complex will cover around 2,700 square meters, with more than 1,100 square meters dedicated to public and open-access areas.
Representing Different Monotheistic Faith
Unlike a monastery centered on God, prayer, and liturgy, the new structure is conceived as an interreligious and cultural hub.
Diocesan presentations describe it as “a space for spirituality, dialogue, and reflection” intended to bring together religions, cultures, science, and …Mwy

Masses Prohibited During Argentinian Roman Rite Pilgrimage

Worse than Germany: The Apostolic Administrator of the Diocese of San Rafael, Argentina, Bishop Marcelo Mazzitelli, did not authorize the celebration of the Mass in the Roman rite during the pilgrimage Nuestra Señora de la Cristiandad, except on the final day, reports ElWanderer.com on May 14.
The pilgrimage to Luján scheduled for August 15-17 follows the model of the Chartres pilgrimage. Last year, there were about 3,000 participants.
Such restrictions are uncommon even in Germany or Italy.
The celebrant for the German pilgrimage in the Roman rite, held at Corpus Christi on June 4–7 in Altötting, Bavaria, is Bishop Marian Eleganti.

Christ Blasphemer at Olympic 'Last Supper' Works for Paris Archdiocese

Worse than the German Church: Barbara Butch, the French activist who parodied Christ in a Last Supper-style during the opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympics, is now directing artistic installations in Parisian churches.
Butch described herself as a "fat, Jewish, queer lesbian" and labelled the 2024 mockery, which featured transvestites, as the "new gay testament".
According to TribuneChrétienne.com, Butch will direct installations inside several historic Parisian churches during Paris' Nuit Blanche festival, scheduled for 6–7 June.
The initiative aims to transform the churches into spaces for sensory and participatory experiences.
One project will take place inside Saint-Laurent Church in Paris. Titled Sous la peau du ciel (“Beneath the Skin of the Sky”), this installation invites visitors to leave recorded “wishes” via telephone. These messages will then be mixed with atmospheric sounds and digitally processed to create what the organisers describe as 'living and evolving sound …Mwy

Vatican Synod Secretariat Cosmetically Distances Itself from Homosexual Report

The General Secretariat of the Synod has distanced itself from the pro-homosexual report prepared by Working Group No. 9 of the Synod on Synodality. This gesture, which amounts to little more than a fig leaf, followed a strong online backlash.
However, Leo XIV has taken no personnel action. And, even worse, he continues to appoint more pro-homosexual bishops.
The synod's report contained criticism of the Catholic apostolate 'Courage' that helps homosexuals to resist their temptations. It also presents flowery testimonies from people in homosexual "marriages". 'Courage' condemned the text for containing 'slander' and 'defamation'.
In a statement to Religión Confidencial, the Secretariat's communications team said that the published final report "cannot be attributed to the General Secretariat" and emphasised that they are merely "working documents".
The team added that its role was limited "exclusively to translating summaries, editing reports, and publishing and distributing them", …Mwy

"Excommunication of FSSPX Will Go Down in History as Huge Error of Leo XIV": Talking to EWTN on May 14, Bishop Athanasius Schneider notes that the Vatican shows leniency toward anti-Catholic movements, the German Synodal Way, and even state-controlled forces like Communist China, while cracking down harshly on the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X: “Now it seems that the Vatican and the Pope are showing their power: ‘We have the power. We will excommunicate them.’ This is not synodal. This is not pastoral. If the Pope excommunicates them, it will go down in history as a huge error of rigidity, pastoral rigidity, and one-sided severity toward tradition in the Church.”

Bishop Schneider told EWTN that if Pope Leo excommunicates the SSPX “this will go down in history as a huge error in pastoral rigidity and one-sided pastoral severity towards tradition in the Church”

Bishop Schneider is 100% correct! The Vatican 2 documents are the issue - they have ushered in the apostasy we are living thru - the wording of these documents is filled with errors, ambiguities, and trap doors that deny and lead away from the dogmatic boundaries of the Catholic Faith. The progressive wing of the Church has used these errors to concoct an entirely new religion - and destroy the Faith of many. Our Lady warned about an "evil Council" in the 3rd Secret of Fatima - along with warning about changes in the Mass. This is why the Vatican has never revealed the entire 3rd Secret. We are now living thru the hell that Vatican 2 unleashed. May the SSPX remain strong - and stand for the Catholic Faith - just as St.Athanasius stood against the Arian heresy. Let us all pray for the SSPX and for Bishop Athanasius Schneider, who is so aptly named! Ave Maria!

Justice Department Secures Landmark Resolution to End Pediatric “Gender-Affirming Care” and Create Detransition Clinic

WASHINGTON – Today, the Department of Justice announced the first resolution secured under the Department’s ongoing national investigation into violations of federal law in connection with the provision of sex-rejecting procedures on minors (often euphemistically called “gender-affirming care”). Texas Children’s Hospital (TCH) has entered into agreements with the Department and the Texas Attorney General that include commitments to not perform such procedures on children, which include the administration of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones. TCH has also agreed to collectively pay over $10 million in damages and civil penalties and to dedicate millions to the provision of medical care to children harmed by the provision of such procedures (i.e., “detransitioners”).
“The Justice Department will use every weapon at its disposal to end the destructive and discredited practice of so-called ‘gender-affirming care’ for children,” said Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. “Today’s …

Archbishop Prohibits Installation of Kneeling Benches to Receive Communion - Costa Rica

Archbishop José Rafael Quirós Quirós, 71, of San José, Costa Rica, has ordered that kneelers are not to be placed in churches for the distribution of Holy Communion, reports InfoVaticana.com.
This measure is ordered in a circular dated 13 May. It is signed by the Episcopal Delegate for Liturgy, Rev. Francisco Morales González.
"From now on, kneelers are not to be installed in churches for the distribution of Communion," the document states.
The circular responds to questions raised in recent weeks regarding the installation of kneelers for the faithful who wish to receive Communion while kneeling.
It "argues" that the presence of kneelers could lead some of the faithful to believe that receiving Communion while kneeling is "the only form established by the Church".
The decree also claims that kneelers could hinder access for elderly people or those with mobility difficulties who are accustomed to receiving Communion while standing.
