Today, 170 Cardinals gathered for the first consistory. Pope Leo XIV was flanked in the Synod Hall by his Curia Cardinals, most of whom are pro-homosexual: Tucho (Faith), Mendonça (Education), Grech (Synod), Roche (Liturgy), Baggio (Human Development), and Artime (Religious). After entering the Synod Hall, English pro-homosexual Cardinal Timothy Radcliffe, 80, delivered a meditation to the Cardinals. The decision to keep him in the same role he held during the Synod on Synodality carries symbolic weight. His speech today was fairly mild. However, just the day before, Cardinal Radcliffe called for the urgent ordination of women as deacons. The cardinals were divided into two groups. The first group consisted of cardinals under the age of 80. This group was further divided into nine round tables. The second group, consisting of elderly cardinals and the Roman Curia, was divided into eleven round tables. In the groups, the Cardinals discussed Synodality and Evangelisation.

"Washington did not destroy the Venezuelan state because it needed more oil; it did so because it is preparing for a possible war with China. ... The theory of “oil imperialism” does not stand up to a simple review of the facts. The United States is no longer the energy-hungry giant it was in the late 20th century. Texas alone now accounts for around 43 percent of total US crude oil production. ... Over the past two decades, while Washington was bogged down in the Middle East, the People's Republic of China has quietly and systematically built up political influence in the Western Hemisphere. ... In 2024, trade between China and the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) reached a volume of US$551 billion (£400 billion).

“I am in favour of moving ahead quickly with the ordination of women to the diaconate,” English Cardinal Timothy Radcliffe OP, 80, told Telegraph.co.uk on January 6. On female priests, he added that it is “complicated”: “It’s not the most important question. Ordination to the priesthood isn’t the big priority. It has to be done with the consent of the whole Church.” Beautiful Touching Between Elderly Men Cardinal Radcliffe is a friend of the late Pope Francis. In 2016, while recovering from an operation on his jaw following a cancer diagnosis, he attended a conference in Rome with the then pope: “He came over and rested his forehead on my forehead for about 30 seconds. Nothing was said. It was beautiful.” Leo XIV in Continuity with Francis, but Better Manners Pope Leo XIV was elected partly “to bring back people who had been alienated by Francis”, and partly to continue his predecessor’s work. "We chose Leo because he could do both – he could move it on but also gather people in …Zwiṅwe
Matthew 15:13 “Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be uprooted.” : Matthew 23:8 “You have only one Teacher.” Galatians 1:8-9 : "But even if we or an Angel from Heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be eternally condemned. As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone preaches to you a gospel other than what you have received, let him be accursed."
My Great Uncle George was an American bootlegger who smuggled booze into the USA from Canada. When the FBI got a little too hot on his heels, he took a seven-year "vacation" in Canada until the statute of limitations (or maybe Prohibition) ended. While in Canada, he met Brother St. Andre Bessette, and a Dominican niece of his took the name of Sister Margaret Andre. So his good deed of providing needed drink for thirsty Americans had a double reward.

France’s Council of State, the country’s highest administrative court, has upheld the use of inclusive writing (écriture inclusive) on commemorative plaques at Paris City Hall in a controversial ruling. It marks the first time the court has explicitly recognised inclusive writing as a valid form of the French language. The case dates back to 2017, when Paris City Council unanimously voted to update marble plaques honouring former presidents of the council and councillors who had served more than 25 years. The new inscriptions, engraved in gold lettering, included forms such as “conseiller.e.s” and “président.e.s“, employing the mid-point (point médian) to denote both masculine and feminine forms. The association Francophonie Avenir, which campaigns to defend the French language, challenged the changes. The mid-point rendered the text non-compliant with standard French and constituted an ideological statement, it said. After Paris City Hall failed to respond to their demand to …

This is Julia DeFoor, also known to those who have known her longer as William DeFoor, because that is how she was born. The young “trans woman” who was just arrested for trying to break into the home of US Vice President J.D. Vance, is not only the child of wealthy and well-known Democratic donors in the US, but also the classic left-wing, queer-radicalized rich brat who rediscovered his gender at elite schools and is now rioting against Republican Vance.

On 6 January, the Bishops’ Conference of Scotland published a statement addressing Scotland’s abortion buffer zone legislation. It follows the first person charged under the new law. The legislation establishes exclusion zones of up to 200 metres around approximately 30 abortion facilities nationwide. Within these zones, conduct deemed to 'influence' decisions relating to abortion may constitute a criminal offence. The bishops described the law as vague and draconian, adding that it restricts critical voices from democratic debate in the public sphere. The statement followed the arrest of Rose Docherty, 75, who was detained in autumn 2025 for holding up a sign in silence. It read: "Coercion is a crime. Here to talk. Only if you want." Ms Docherty was standing within the buffer zone surrounding the abortion facility at Queen Elizabeth University Hospital. Ms Docherty was released after several hours in custody and later appeared in court. The bishops noted that, when consulted on the …Zwiṅwe
