On April 27, Bishop Emeritus Joseph Strickland of Tyler, Texas, commented on PillarsOfFaith.net regarding the scandalous reception of Mrs. Sarah Mullally at the Vatican. The woman bears the title and attire of the Anglican “Archbishop” of Canterbury. Monsignor Strickland managed not to mention Pope Leo XIV, even though he had received the lady as an equal “bishop.” Rather, Bishop Strickland merely reaffirmed the Catholic teaching that the priesthood is divinely instituted and that the Church has no authority to ordain women. He argued that public gestures that give the appearance of honoring someone without valid ordination in an office could confuse the faithful about the nature of the Catholic priesthood and ordination. In conclusion, he called on Catholics to respond with prayer, Eucharistic adoration, penance, and reparation for the Church. #newsTwjnhxknic
Just as Joe Biden was the face of the US presidency while the decision-makers were behind the curtain, we can now say with certainty that the Papacy of Leo is a façade for a continuation of Francis' rule. Francis was nobody's puppet, taking the conciliar church beyond conciliar in a brash and frequently rude way. He introduced the Listening Church which doesn't listen. Endless Synodal conversations followed by pronouncement of the pre-determined conclusion. An insight of the timid and rather simple Leo the image from the pachamama ceremony. Everyone else is bowing before the idol. Fr. Prevost then decides to follow - last to join, but too weak to resist the crowd. One can credibly imagine Leo asking sheepishly, "Would be OK to wash the feet in the Lateran this year on Holy Thursday?" Ignorant and heretical as they may be, the curia which Francis gathered are bold, merciless egoists, bent on tearing down the remnants of fealty to the Apostles. Leo is no match for them. He is the echo of …More
Medforth AI A French journalist and columnist, Charlotte d’Ornellas, says there is a shocking pattern of foreigners raping elderly women in France. Over the years, Remix News has documented some of the most terrifying of these cases. D’Ornellas’ comment came after an especially brutal rape earlier this month involving a Moroccan migrant who was arrested for raping and torturing a 74-year-old woman in Romainville with a telescopic baton. “It’s beyond belief, in fact. Obviously, the age of a rape victim doesn’t change the horror much, but there’s something here. You know, the ultimate taboo. She’s raped, a 74-year-old woman, it’s unimaginable. And it happens again and again,” said d’Ornellas during an appearance on French television network CNews. “Our job is to bear witness to reality. And that’s why some people are at war with us. They don’t want us to show this reality. If we don’t talk about it, no one will.” However, many other cases have also arisen over the years, which …
The Vatican’s Dicastery for Divine Worship has acknowledged receipt of a “hierarchical recourse” filed against the apparent refusal of Bishop Michael Martin of Charlotte, North Carolina, to respond to requests concerning liturgical matters. The Vatican letter, dated February 16 and signed by Fr. Pierre Paul, confirms that the case has been assigned protocol number 369/25 and will be examined according to the applicable procedures. However, in the Vatican, such procedural formalities often lead nowhere; even the acceptance of an appeal does not guarantee any intervention or substantive action. Bishop Martin has aggressively curtailed Catholic liturgical practices in the Diocese of Charlotte. #newsAhximseszf
Three individuals shared portions of their consecrated Hosts with their dogs during a Eucharist on October 4, 2025, at Good Shepherd Parish in Zürich, Switzerland. The sacrilege occurred during an animal blessing that had been combined with a Eucharist. The Diocese of Chur investigated the incided and concluded on April 17 that the individuals did not act with sacrilegious intent. Despite imposing no canonical penalties, the diocese described the incident as “highly regrettable.” #newsXhlejkrule
I knew a protestant woman who went to Mass, took a host, and after eating part of it, gave the rest to her grandchild. It grieves me to know to what extent the Holy Catholic Church is being betrayed by her priests and prelates.
I have witnessed people taking the HOST and breaking IT into smaller pieces. What happened after that I do not know. Several times I had to interrupt distributing Holy Communion, and tell the person to consume the Host immediately, and not parade around the Church with IT. Yes, things are becoming worse each day.
28.04.2026 CONSERVATIVE POLITICAL PARTIES IN ITALY MUST ASK THE ARCHBISHOP OF MILAN TO CLARIFY THE CATHOLIC FAITH FOR MIGRANTS The conservative political parties in Italy need to issue a statement calling upon the Archbishop of Milan to clarify the Catholic Faith for all and so permit conservative cardinals, bishops and priests to participate in their political meetings. The statement could briefly mention some of the following points. 1. We respect all people and appreciate the good things in other religions, but we have our Catholic Faith, outside of which no one goes to Heaven (AG 7, Vatican Council II etc). 2. Not a single cardinal, bishop or priest participated at the Milan Meeting last week. For a Catholic, Jesus cannot be separated from the Church and the Church cannot be separated from politics and legislation. The Vatican must provide a system whereby conservative priests can participate in politics. A priest or bishop must not be excommunicated for participating in politics …More
**The Aleteia article is spot-on and a helpful guide.** Your quoted text about the **green cover** accurately describes it: it's the 1997 Latin *editio typica* (typical edition), which became the official reference text with the definitive English translation and minor refinements from the earlier 1992/1994 French-based version (often tan cover). ### Key Context on Editions by Cover Color - **Tan**: Early 1990s provisional English translation (French original). Good historically, but superseded. - **Green**: 1997 official Latin-based Second Edition. This was long considered *the* standard authoritative version. Many people (including traditional-leaning Catholics) still prefer it for its "classic" status and pre-2018 wording on certain topics. - **Blue** (and some newer hardcovers/white editions): Incorporates the 2018 change to paragraph 2267 on the death penalty (now called "inadmissible" rather than allowing for rare cases). This is the most current official text. ### Thoughts on Your …More
One might as well announce that the Vatican is in the toilet tissue business for all of the utilitarian benefits the publications of the recent occupiers of the papal seat have rendered.
