" The document of Benedict XVI, Summorum Pontificum, does not create a new liturgical rite..." --- No, it was Montini with Bugnini who created it. Ratzinger just tried to save it by imposing a legal fiction of two forms of the same rite for ontologically and historically different rites.
Even the Minority Witness at Ron Johnson's Cancer Senate Hearings Had to Agree: COVID Vaccines Appear to Be Causing Cancer in Some People. Breast. Female reproductive. Colon cancer in women. Prostate. Lung. Colorectal in men. Cancer has been rising for two decades — but the curves have now taken a hockey stick upward inflection. The Senate hearing brought UK and US cancer experts together, and the conclusion was not disputed across party lines. Screen now. Re-screen. Total body MRI technology exists. We need to be ahead of this — because too many people are already at risk.
On July 6, Cardinal Müller spoke with K-TV about the Traditional Latin Mass and the FSSPX episcopal consecrations. Key statements: - "The implementation of the liturgical reform was marked by many abuses because many failed to grasp the spirit of the renewed liturgy and neglected its essential elements: the worship of God, the communication of salvation, and reverence before God." - "The so-called old rite is not forbidden. Rather, it is permitted to a certain extent and under certain conditions, and it is, of course, valid." - "Pope Benedict XVI made the wise decision that the same Latin liturgy could be celebrated in both its ordinary and extraordinary forms." - "The faithful always have the opportunity to attend the Holy Mass celebrated according to the older form." - "Many people may have sympathies for the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X because they believe that the Catholic faith and the liturgy are being preserved there against many of the abuses found in modernist circles.…Lokwengentiwe

U.S. Ambassador to the Holy See Brian Burch has described an informal Independence Day dinner he hosted for Pope Leo XIV at his residence in Rome. Speaking with Italian media, Burch said the pope arrived at 7:30 p.m. on July 4, prayed with the ambassador's family, and shared a meal featuring American charcuterie, watermelon salad, Chicago-style hot dogs, apple pie, and gelato. Burch said Leo XIV approved of the menu. The pope arrived without aides or secretaries, accompanied only by two Vatican gendarmes. Burch said he invited Leo XIV to mark the 250th anniversary of the United States by hosting the first U.S.-born pope. The invitation was sent about two months before the dinner, and confirmation came about a month later. The ambassador also said Leo XIV still carries a Peruvian credit card, uses a cellphone, follows the Chicago White Sox, and sometimes wakes during the night to check soccer scores. The dinner took place the same day Leo XIV visited Lampedusa. Burch said the pope rejected …Lokwengentiwe
But no time to meet with SSPX Bishops who have 700,000 Catholics, 700 Priests and 300 Seminaries in their care, who have been repeatedly been asking for an audience to discuss their very valid concerns about the spiritual needs of their flock.
In a lengthy interview with Die Weltwoche's Roger Koeppel on Wednesday,Simonyan said, “it is not Ukraine that is bringing the war to Moscow” but rather Europe, as Kiev is incapable of conducting attacks without foreign aid and intelligence.
In a July 6 InfoVaticana.com opinion piece ("Tribune"), Pedro Gómez Carrizo argues that decades of doctrinal and disciplinary drift have hollowed out the Church's authority. He writes that Leo XIV demands obedience from the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X. after years of treating other disputes as negotiable, contextual, or exempt. Leo XIV' Priorities Exposed Rome has tolerated what Carrizo considers far more serious ruptures than the episcopal consecration of the FSSPX: - Germany's Synodal Way, which has drifted toward schism without consequence. - Episcopal appointments negotiated with China's Communist Party. - Blessings of homosexual couples. - Liturgical experimentation. - Synodality, which has repackaged old heresies as "innovation". The willingness to make exceptions in many controversial areas while drawing an absolute line at Écône, Carrizo contends, exposes the pope’s priorities rather than his strength. "The Signature Is Tucho's; the Failure Is Leo XIV's" Carrizo portrays …Lokwengentiwe

The document argued that homosexual orientation is "not self-chosen and ... cannot be changed," and that homosexual Catholics should be accepted without reservation.

Catholics may not knowingly take part in the liturgical celebrations, apostolates, or other activities of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X, Archbishop Shawn McKnight of Kansas City, Kansas, wrote in a July 2 statement following the episcopal consecrations. McKnight noted that the SSPX's ministry "is not legitimate in the life of the Church" and that "the sacraments of Penance and Matrimony administered by them are now invalid." Participation in the worship of the "schismatic" community fosters separation from the Church's communion, he added: "Such participation is not merely discouraged but is gravely contrary to the unity of the Church and, when undertaken with full knowledge and deliberate consent, is sinful." #newsAetnoekkoi
If you want to receive Holy Communion while happily living in sin with your partner, that’s not a problem for the Vatican, as long as it’s not at an SSPX Mass…."
By mocking the sacrament of the priesthood and the canonization of saints, the apostate Prevost—in defiance of God—commits the unforgivable sin of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit; yet, there are still Catholics who delude themselves into thinking they are not schismatics while remaining united with the apostate Robert Prevost. This is precisely how the apostate angels became schismatics: by joining Lucifer’s rebellion against God. It is unimaginable that an angel of lower rank would have defied the apostate Lucifer to defend God's supremacy.
Cardinal López Romero Steps Back Amid Investigation: Spanish-born Cardinal Cristóbal López Romero, Archbishop of Rabat, has stepped back from public ministry after five adult women filed complaints against him.

The Episcopal church is selling its NYC headquarters. "Mainline Protestantism had always been dominant in America and robustly assumed it always would remain so, with or without any effort. It choked on its own over confidence. But in recent years the Mainline denominations have been joined by declining evangelical denominations." Soon Protestantism will wither away.
Jesus Christ founded only one Church. That Church, the Catholic Church will never cease to exist here on earth. The false churches are collapsing from within.
Matthew McCusker July 8, 2026 Errors are found throughout Leo XIV's encyclical Magnifica Humanitas in which he says civil society possesses 'autonomy' from religion and that the state has 'full autonomy' from the Catholic Church. Now, this authority, perfect in itself, and plainly meant to be unfettered, so long assailed by a philosophy that truckles to the State, the Church, has never ceased to claim for herself and openly to exercise. The Apostles themselves were the first to uphold it, when, being forbidden by the rulers of the synagogue to preach the Gospel, they courageously answered: “We must obey God rather than men.” — Pope Leo XIII, Immortale Dei, “On the Christian Constitution of States” In his recent “encyclical letter” Magnifica Humanitas, Leo XIV publicly rejected the reign of Christ the King over states and nations. In this document, he affirms that civil society possesses “autonomy” from religion, including in its “values” and “laws,” and that the state has “full autonomy …Lokwengentiwe
