Dozens of Charlotte Priests Appeal to Vatican Over Liturgical Restrictions
Yep, he was hand-picked by Prevost when he was in charge of recommending prospective bishops to Francis.
Is there a homo agenda behind the attack on Venezuela?
Well, my MAIN point was Maduro was a horrible leader and not anyone to defend. If Tucker and company think that his capture was unlawful or not in the country's best interest then make that argument, BUT don't spin it that he was some "hero of traditional values"! It's no different than Nick Fuentes of Kanye West saying: "There's a lot to admire in Adolf Hitler." No wonder people think Catholics have a love for authoritarian dictators.
Is there a homo agenda behind the attack on Venezuela?
NOW we have really "jumped the shark" when so-called "conservatives" are decrying the arrest of a socialist dictator who trafficked in narcotics because he "was against homosexuality and Israel"! No, the "enemy of my enemy is not my friend" No sympathy for him and good riddance!
SEEK 2026 in Texas opens with rock concert by a priest, Mass
It seems that this conference and it's sponsoring organization is mimicking the evangelical Protestant model of Campus Crusade for Christ started by Billy Graham which was very popular & successful in the 1980s. It emphasizes "youth culture" to draw young adults to make a commitment to Jesus, but often the "high" wears off when the youth realize that their local parish church is nothing like the "worship services" of a high-energy, celebrity centered event.

"Church Focused on Social Work – Stopped Proclaiming Christ"
Yes there are... but hard to find. Plus, most are tortured whether to keep a low profile & "fly under the radar" so as to be able to minister to the faithful OR boldly decry the wickedness of the 'leadership' of the Vatican II synodal church and be canceled and taken out pastoral responsibility for the care of souls.
Priest in Hiding? Joliet Priest Accused of Sexual Assault Can’t be Found
Sorry but it's got to be said: could he have returned to a Latin American country (based on his name)? And yes, I know there are Hispanic Americans, but in my experience most Latino priests were born outside the U.S. In fact in my seminary days vocation directors lamented that local Hispanic youth weren't that interested in priesthood necessitating importing foreign students who often sadly left during formation.
Mamdani: We Will Replace The Rigidity Of Rugged Individualism With The Warmth Of Collectivism
Well, he is on record as being a Muslim - he was sworn in on the Koran (funny that since Allah is named a great deceiver in that text...) So, if one takes the definition that the Apostle John gives in his first epistle for "antichrist": one who denies the Incarnation, then YEAH, MAMDANI IS ABSOLUTELY AN ANTICHRIST!!
Papal Audience - An 88 Percent Increase After a Decade of Decline under Francis
More "Leo effect" spin from the Vatican - but popularity doesn't mean anything. The issue is whether Leo is continuing Francis' "reforms" & policies or if he's defending the authentic Catholic faith.
Mamdani: We Will Replace The Rigidity Of Rugged Individualism With The Warmth Of Collectivism
Sounds like Lenin or Castro
Could reducing Sunday Mass locations be a key to increasing Catholic church attendance?
Cut the crap... the real problem is not enough priests - even with church attendance in single digits. Reduce Mass locations? That just means you "hope" people will care enough to travel to get to a N.O. Mass far from their locale so it will "look" full. But the decline is still happening! There is NO increase!!
The Leo XIV effect: pilgrim numbers rise in the Vatican
Yep, it's official - Leo's good for tourism. But is he good for the spreading of the faith? Any "Leo effect" needs to include his disastrous episcopal appointments.
Also: Octave Day of Christmas & Feast of the Circumcision [TLM calendar] My little 'pet peeve' about this day as observed by Catholics - Christmas is celebrated solemnly for a week straight, as the older pre-Vatican II calendar made clear with many feasts having Octaves [8 day observance]. Now on the revised calendar only Easter & Christmas have them. Most Catholics who attend Mass regularly on Sundays & holy days of obligation don't see the connection anymore. So having to go to church on "New Year's Day" is seen as some arbitrary requirement by many. One person even told me that he thinks it's to prevent Catholics from over-indulging the eve prior and avoid drunkenness! That "World Day of Peace" was added in the 60s, I believe, and many liberal parishes play it up as central. For example in our church last night they had read Leo's message for 2026 at adoration of the Blessed Sacrament! It was purely political "give peace a chance" text, but at least had a few mentions of Jesus Christ & God.
