Pope Leo XIV accepted two resignations from the Chaldean Catholic Church today. Cardinal Louis Raphaël Sako, 77, resigned as Patriarch of Baghdad. He has been one of the most prominent Christian voices in Iraq during a period marked by war, political instability and the dramatic decline of the country's Christian population. Cardinal Sako has faced opposition from several Chaldean bishops. In recent years, some bishops have reportedly boycotted synods and criticised his leadership style, leading to an unusually public dispute within the church's hierarchy. The second resignation announced today is that of Bishop Emanuel Hana Shaleta from the Chaldean Eparchy of San Diego, California. His resignation comes amid a criminal investigation in the United States. US authorities have accused the bishop of financial misconduct involving church funds. He has appeared in court and reportedly pleaded not guilty to the charges. Further reports allege that he had visited a brothel in Tijuana, Mexico …بیشتر
Erdogan warnte, dass trotz der Warnungen Ankaras weiterhin „äußerst fehlerhafte und provokative Schritte“ unternommen würden, die die Freundschaft zwischen der Türkei und dem Iran gefährdeten. Seinen Worten zufolge könnten solche Handlungen eine tiefe Wunde im Bewusstsein des türkischen Volkes hinterlassen und einen Schatten auf die Jahrtausende alte gute Nachbarschaft werfen. Erdogan drohte dem Iran „nicht auf diesem Fehler zu beharren und keine Sturheit an den Tag zu legen”. #Iran#Türkei Verpasse nichts! Abonniere hier: @MilitaerNews
Blood thirsty fear and warmongers don't realize that what goes around will come around. Just as we see it going on in Israel. The sad part is they always aim at the children. NOT just a little girls school and gym, but also they were aiming at a boy's school as well. They will get theirs and unfortunately so will we.

SAINT FRANCES OF ROME - March 9 Religious (1384-1440) St. Frances' parents were high-ranking Roman officials. They overruled her decision to become a nun and married her when she was 12 years old to Rorenzo Ponziano, a nobleman. In 40 years of married life, they never argued. St. Frances attended promptly to every household duty saying, "A married woman must leave God at the altar to find Him in her domestic cares." Her ordinary food was bread and water, but she often brought sumptuous food to the poor and needy. During the invasion of Rome in 1413, Ponziano was banished, his house was destroyed, his estates were confiscated, and his eldest son was taken hostage. St. Frances saw in these losses only the finger of God and blessed His holy name. When peace was restored, Ponziano recovered his estate and St. Frances founded the Oblates. After her husband's death, St. Frances lived with the Oblates and was elected superioress. She was constanly aware of the presence of God. Among many visions …بیشتر

The Synod Secretariat today released the report of Study Group 5, which examined the role of women in the Church. The report calls for the expansion of existing instituted ministries for women including lector, acolyte, catechist as well as leadership roles in communities, dioceses and Vatican institutions. Most troubling quotes, slightly paraphrased: - It is necessary to reflect particularly on reformulating the areas of competence of ordained ministry […] Redefining these areas of competence could open recognition of new spaces of responsibility for women in the Church. (page 12) - There are no reasons that prevent women from assuming leadership roles in the Church. It is important to reiterate that there is nothing, in the mere fact of being a woman, that prevents assuming roles of leadership in the Church. (page 13) - Every Curial institution carries out its mission by virtue of authority received from the Roman Pontiff. The primatial authority of the Roman Pontiff can be delegated …بیشتر

The apostate Robert Prevost defies God's Law and attacks faith (Abu Dhabi Pact, synod of synodality etc.) and morals (Amoris Laetitia, Fiducia Supplicans, etc.), which shows us that he is not a legitimate Catholic pope because he is not assisted by the Holy Spirit but by the spirit of the antichrist. Prevost supports sinful same-sex civil unions and gay adoption Leo XIV Taps Sodomite & Gay Activist Chef for Castel Gandolfo
A new version of the controversial suicide pod is being designed for couples in Switzerland. These 3D-printed pods kill two people together when they press a button at the same time. They then die within minutes as the chamber fills with nitrogen. The device was originally introduced in 2024 for one human being. The 'double' version has been developed in response to concerns expressed by some suiciders about dying alone.
January 6 commemorative plaque appears in Capitol after years of delay A plaque honoring the heroism of police officers during the January 6, 2021, attack by a mob supportive of President Donald Trump has quietly been installed at the US Capitol after years of delay. The installation of the plaque early Saturday morning, which was first reported by The Washington Post, did not feature a formal ceremony or remarks. It came years after it was required by federal law to be installed by 2023. “On behalf of a grateful Congress, this plaque honors the extraordinary individuals who bravely protected and defended this symbol of democracy on January 6, 2021,” the plaque reads. “Their heroism will never be forgotten.” It lists the several local police departments and federal agencies that responded that day. Next to it is a QR code that leads to a file with the names of officers who were present. The plaque has been placed at the end of a hallway, just inside an entrance on the West Front of …بیشتر
Caitlin Kalinowski @kalinowski007 I resigned from OpenAI. I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together. This wasn’t an easy call. AI has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I’m proud of what we built together.
Bishop Schneider: "Therefore, I think that, if the excommunication would be applied, it would be in some way not valid because there is no intention to do a schismatic act on the side of the Society of Pius X, and you cannot be punished when you have not the intention to do it, according to the canon law."
Bishop Athanasius Schneider, the Holy See’s former Apostolic Visitor to the Society of Saint Pius X, has opined that any excommunication which the Society may be handed following the upcoming episcopal consecrations would be invalid.
Some Catholics left the Church when Vatican II started using altar girls. It was a shock even to Catholics that remained in the pews. Leo wants to insult more conservative Catholics without appearing to insult.
Douay-Rheims Bible Psalm 27:7-9 7Hear, O Lord, my voice, with which I have cried to thee: have mercy on me and hear me. 8My heart hath said to thee: My face hath sought thee: thy face, O Lord, will I still seek. 9Turn not away thy face from me; decline not in thy wrath from thy servant. Be thou my helper, forsake me not; do not thou despise me, O God my Saviour.
There is a problem in Bologna with Catechesis. The cardinal and the Bishops Conference in Italy interpret Vatican Council II irrationally and so are politically correct with the Left. They do not have the traditional Catholic Faith. 10.03.2025 POPE LEO AND THE CARDINALS AND BISHOPS AGREE WITH ME : VATICAN COUNCIL II IS ALIGNED WITH THE ROMAN MISSAL OF THE LATIN MASS The pope is now a traditionalist. This is forced upon him by Vatican Council II interpreted only rationally. He has no other choice. This is the only moral option he has. Pope Leo and the cardinals and bishops agree with me. Lumen Gentium 16 is invisible. Vatican Council II ( Ad Gentes 7- all need faith and baptism for salvation, CCC 846) is aligned with Ignatius, Xavier and Bellarmine on extra ecclesiam nulla salus (EENS).The Council is ecclesiocentric like the Roman Missal of the 16th century at the Latin Mass. Vatican Council II (AG 7) says outside the Church there is no salvation. Invisible and hypothetical cases of …بیشتر
"Hereafter they know that all labour in this life is small, on account of the shortness of time. Time is as the point of a needle and no more; and, when time has passed labour is ended, therefore thou seest that the labour is small. They endure with patience, and the thorns they pass through do not touch their heart, because their heart is drawn out of them and united to Me by the affection of love. It is a good truth then that these do taste eternal life, receiving the earnest money of it in this life, and that, though they walk on thorns, they are not pricked, because as I told thee, they have known My Supreme Goodness, and sought for it where it was to be found, that is in the Word, My only-begotten Son."
[Saint Catherine of Siena /Caterina di Benincasa/; XIV-XV Century AD; Siena, Republic of Siena/Rome, Papal States; aged 33; Spiritual Writer; Mystic; Virgin; Doctor of the Church] “How, the world having germinated thorns, who those are whom they do not harm ; although no one passes this life without pain. " Now I want to show thee to whom the thorns and tribulations, that the world germinated through sin, do harm, and to whom they do not. And as, so far, I have shown thee the damnation of sinners, together with My goodness, and have told thee how they are deceived by their own sensuality, now I wish to tell thee how it is only they themselves who are injured by the thorns. No one born passes this life without pain, bodily or mental. Bodily pain My servants bear, but their minds are free, that is, they do not feel the weariness of the pain ; for their will is accorded with Mine, and it is the will that gives trouble to man. Pain of mind and of body have those, of whom I have narrated to …بیشتر
