Today, Pope Leo XIV received Gareth Gore in audience. Gore is a British financial journalist who has attacked Opus Dei in recent years. Since his election, Leo XIV has met with the leadership of Opus Dei twice to discuss the revision of their statutes. Opus Dei as "Abusive Cult" Gore's most notable book is Opus: The Cult of Dark Money, Human Trafficking and Right-Wing Conspiracy Inside the Catholic Church (2024). He presents a caricature of Opus Dei, claiming that the organisation has built its influence through networks of members in business and finance, including figures linked to Banco Popular Español. He speaks of an "abusive cult". Gore describes a strict internal discipline and secrecy, and alleges that Opus Dei engages in coercive recruitment and exploitation. He invents that some assistants (women who perform domestic work in Opus Dei centres) are victims of human trafficking. The Collapse of Banco Popular However, the collapse of Banco Popular in 2017 is generally explained …ተጨማሪ
Book of Ezekiel 47,1-9.12. The angel brought me, Ezekiel, back to the entrance of the temple of the LORD, and I saw water flowing out from beneath the threshold of the temple toward the east, for the façade of the temple was toward the east; the water flowed down from the right side of the temple, south of the altar. He led me outside by the north gate, and around to the outer gate facing the east, where I saw water trickling from the southern side. Then when he had walked off to the east with a measuring cord in his hand, he measured off a thousand cubits and had me wade through the water, which was ankle-deep. He measured off another thousand and once more had me wade through the water, which was now knee-deep. Again he measured off a thousand and had me wade; the water was up to my waist. Once more he measured off a thousand, but there was now a river through which I could not wade; for the water had risen so high it had become a river that could not be crossed except by swimming. He …ተጨማሪ
The trouble with a great deal of the commentary on this war is that most critics and leftist narrative designers haven't a clue as to the data and the intelligence whereupon the decisions and strategy are formulated. The President has a superb cabinet and inner circle of advisers, and a top notch military command.
Mon Mar 16, 2026 - 12:01 am EDTWed Mar 11, 2026 - 12:23 pm EDT (LifeSiteNews) — The station is in the venerable church of the Four Crowned (Brothers); their names are Severus, Severianus, Carpophorus, and Victorinus; they suffered martyrdom under the persecution of Diocletian. Their bodies, as also the head of the great martyr St. Sebastian, are among the relics of this church. COLLECT Grant, we beseech thee, O Almighty God, that we, who annually celebrate this holy fast, may be well pleasing to thee, both in body and mind, through Christ our Lord. Amen. EPISTLE Lesson from the Book of Kings 3:16-28 In those days: Two women that were harlots, came to King Solomon, and stood before him; and one of them said: I beseech thee, my lord, I and this woman dwelt in one house, and I was delivered of a child with her in the chamber. And the third day after that I was delivered, she also delivered; and we were together, and no other person with us in the house, only we two. And this woman’s …
Tech billionaire Peter Thiel, 58, is holding a closed-door lecture series at Palazzo Orsini Taverna in Rome’s historic center on the theme of the Antichrist (March 15–18). Organized by the cultural association Vincenzo Gioberti, about 100 invited participants attended. Among them are many Americans, including priests and seminarians from the Angelicum. This pontifical university had originally been supposed to host the event before Vatican intervention. According to LaStampa.it (March 16), Thiel said: “I am a Christian, I want to preserve freedom, and I fear the Antichrist.” Thiel grew up in an Evangelical Christian family and has said that his worldview is shaped by “Christianity”. Shaped by Homosexuality Already in 2007, the Silicon Valley blog Valleywag, run by the media company Gawker Media, published an article stating that Thiel “is totally gay.” Thiel later secretly funded Hulk Hogan’s lawsuit against Gawker over a leaked sex tape. The case resulted in a $140 million verdict …ተጨማሪ
Voices of MAGA: From support to open rebellion The protest of key figures within MAGA has been particularly striking. Tucker Carlson, a well-known supporter of isolationism, expressed outrage during an ABC News interview on March 1, declaring the attacks on Iran “Absolutely disgusting and evil.” In a podcast, he added,“This is not America’s war. This is Netanyahu’s war that’s being forced upon us… We promised America First, and instead got endless wars fought for the interests of others.”
The night of February 28-March 1, 2026, will be remembered by all those who followed the news in real time. At 1:15 AM EST, seated in the White House Situation Room, US President Donald Trump said,“Operation Epic Fury is approved. No aborts. Good luck.” Those nine words signaled the launch of the largest US-Israeli military operation in decades. F-35 fighters, B-2 bombers, cruise missiles launched from ships in the Persian Gulf, and drones struck over 3,000 targets in Tehran, Natanz, Fordow, and other locations in Iran. The mission was to eradicate what remained of Iran’s nuclear program, dismantle the command structure of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), and as Trump later confirmed in a video address from Mar-a-Lago, “eliminate imminent threats” to the US from the Iranian leadership. However, within hours, the situation changed. Iranian state television announced that “Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has fallen a martyr due to the aggression of the Zionist and American …
Nuns in Italy Shaping the Faith of the Next Generation | Shalom World News In the ancient stone city of Matera in southern Italy stands a place where faith and learning walk hand in hand. At Scuola Sacro Cuore School, young hearts are gently guided not only toward knowledge but also toward a deeper relationship with Jesus. Within these quiet halls, Catholic nuns dedicate their lives to nurturing both mind and soul. With patience, prayer, and compassion, they lead students along a path where education becomes more than lessons–it becomes a journey of faith. Amid the historic beauty of Matera, a city carved into stone and rich with centuries of Christian heritage, these sisters sow seeds of hope, kindness, and devotion in the lives of the young. Here, faith is not merely taught–it is lived, shared, and lovingly passed from one generation to the next.
First uncertainty: Some have claimed that Pius XII's successor was Cardinal Siri, who took the name Gregory XVII. Nothing is less certain, since the secrecy of the conclave obliges and apparently no one has spoken. fumee- …
Up until fifteen years or so, I never really heard about this. Marshall Thompson wrote about it in his book. Slowly but surely, it is all coming out in the wash.
French born Rev Jakob Rolland, chancellor of the Diocese of Reykjavik, Iceland, told the state television Ruv.is the Church's teaching on homosexual acts. On March 5, police announced it examines the remarks and assess whether there is reason to begin an investigation. Like most priests in nominally Lutheran Iceland, Rev Rolland is a missionary. He has lived in Iceland for decades and has even changed his first name to make it more Icelandic — "no one here could say 'Jacques'". The collapsed Protestantism has arguably been replaced by the state religion of "LGBT+ advocacy". In the interview, Rev. Rolland responded affirmatively when asked if the Church hopes homosexuals will change over time, adding that it provides them with support: “That is what is very much lacking in modern society. Someone who wants to leave such a lifestyle receives no assistance.” Homosexuals who seek help from a priest of the Catholic Church “cannot find” psychologists or social workers to help them. Rev. …ተጨማሪ
One is reminded of lawsuits brought on behalf of children who were given sex reassignment therapies and surgeries against the doctors who recommended or performed those procedures. Now years later they bitterly regret the physical and mental anguish they endure. Their wish is that they had recieved better counsel. Those professionals acted against their better judgement--surely they knew better--but were themselves pressured to go along with the current of the day. To prohibit this Priest from advising against acts and a way of living that can bring great unhappiness into someone's life is an act of craven elitism.
In Canada we have an attempt to criminalize the quoting of the bible which may be regarded as hate speech, in case someone's feelings get hurt by the suggestion that there is something very wrong in sexual acts between homosexuals.
