Speaking to journalists in Castel Gandolfo this evening, Pope Leo XIV called on world leaders to “come back to the table” and solve their problems through dialogue (video below). "I'm told that President Trump recently said he wanted to end the war. Hopefully, he is looking for a way out. I hope he's looking for a way to reduce the violence and bombing, which would significantly help to reduce the constant increase in hatred in the Middle East and elsewhere." Leo XIV added, "Come back to the table and engage in dialogue. Let's look for solutions to problems and ways to reduce violence, so that peace — especially at Easter — might reign in our hearts." The Pope was also asked about his decision to personally carry the cross during the traditional Stations of the Cross at the Colosseum on Friday. "I think it will be an important sign because of what the Pope represents: a spiritual leader in today's world and a voice saying that Christ still suffers." When asked what he expects from his …زیاتر
Conservative Bishop Robert Barron of Winona-Rochester, Minnesota, published a “counter-view” to the teaching that Judas has earned his place in hell on FoxNews.com on Palm Sunday. Monsignor Barron's main arguments for having hope for Judas' salvation - Judas shows repentance: "Judas, the betrayer, deeply regretted what he had done: 'I have sinned in betraying innocent blood.'" "This is not callous indifference or self-justification. This is a clear and honest admission of guilt." - The Church has never declared that Judas is in hell: "St. Pope John Paul II insisted that the Church has never made a definitive statement regarding whether any particular person is in hell." "Pope Benedict said that we should suspend judgement regarding Judas and commit him to the mercy and justice of God." - Suicide does not guarantee damnation: "We should not despair of the eternal salvation of persons who have taken their own lives.' 'By ways known to him alone, God can provide the opportunity for salutary …زیاتر
HEY BISHOP BARRON, Don't worry about a thing. Just think - in a few days, after having spent all this time during lent thinking about Judas, you too will have perfection as a Traitor! The 40 days in the dessert - the devil tried to unsuccessfully bring down Christ in Temptations. He was most successful with Judas during this same period. By contemplating and becoming one with Judas, you will certainly miss out on the Resurrection - just like Judas. There will be NO redemption for you - you DUMB ASS. Time to think about Yahweh, his Justice and infinite Mercy to those how repent, to make you a better Saint.
"The goal is to have an endless war, not a successful war." Julian Assange: The goal of war in the Middle East is "to wash money out of the tax bases of the United States, out of the tax bases of European countries... and back into the hands of a transnational security elite."
Isaiah 49:1-6 "Before birth the Lord called me, from my mother’s womb he gave me my name." Because life in the womb is the life of God. John 13:21-33, 36-38 Truly, no one can fully grasp the true mission of Jesus in the world. It is also a challenge today to bring people to discover God's presence within them. Let us reveal the joy in each person, and in doing so, we reveal God to them. Biblical texts: NAB-RE Normand Thomas.
osintdefender The Iranian Ministry of Energy has confirmed ongoing power outages in Tehran and other cities across Northern Iran, following strikes in the past hour by Israel and/or the United States against energy infrastructure in the Tehran Province. instagram.com/reel/DWemnJliRph/
Think about that. Iran hides nothing while Israel and bibi not only hide what's going on there, but people are jailed for posting online. Iran has not hid anything from anyone so far. Which tells me, they are more trustworthy than both trump and bibi.
Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf: "Iran is not negotiating with the U.S.; false reports are manipulating the markets, the speaker said." Iran has not held negotiations with the United States, and false reports are being used to manipulate markets, Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said on Monday. “No negotiations have taken place with the US, and false reports are being used to manipulate financial and oil markets and to escape the quagmire in which the US and Israel are trapped,” the speaker said on the X program. Earlier that same day, Trump stated that the United States and Iran had held very positive and productive talks over the past two days and announced the postponement of U.S. attacks on Iran’s energy infrastructure. The president also expressed hope that progress would be achieved within five days, a CNBC reporter reported following an interview with the president. Iran itself, however, denies that such talks are taking place and has made …زیاتر
On March 30, Pope Leo XIV appointed a new group of members to the Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development, including bishops, clergy, religious figures, and lay academics. All of them are closely aligned with the priorities of the Francis era, such as mass immigration, "synodality", social justice, inculturation, and ecology. Archbishop Rogelio Cabrera López of Monterrey, Mexico Monsignor Cabrera publicly aligned himself with the pro-homosexual document Fiducia Supplicans. According to AciDigital.com (23 January 2024), he urged Catholics to read the document in a spirit of mercy and called for “affective and effective communion” with Pope Francis and his pastoral proposals . In his capacity as president of the Mexican bishops’ conference, he was also involved in submitting the "Mayan rite" to the Vatican for approval.

One of the main reason for the emergence of Islam is the west's allowing the Holocaust crowd perpetually denying of God's mercy from generation to generation even to the point of neutering the dignity of nations. A grave sin. Some people and nations see teachings of mercy and dignity in Islam, so the common sense finds a home in Islam (in my opinion temporarily).
The prot's are totally lost and love it that way. Every single person as well as every single fake religion they have all believe in a different Christ. And most hate The Blessed Mother. With some who say, she is a good woman.
Book of Isaiah 49,1-6. Hear me, O islands, listen, O distant peoples. The Lord called me from birth, from my mother's womb he gave me my name. He made of me a sharp-edged sword and concealed me in the shadow of his arm. He made me a polished arrow, in his quiver he hid me. You are my servant, he said to me, Israel, through whom I show my glory. Though I thought I had toiled in vain, and for nothing, uselessly, spent my strength, Yet my reward is with the LORD, my recompense is with my God. For now the LORD has spoken who formed me as his servant from the womb, That Jacob may be brought back to him and Israel gathered to him; And I am made glorious in the sight of the LORD, and my God is now my strength! It is too little, he says, for you to be my servant, to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and restore the survivors of Israel; I will make you a light to the nations, that my salvation may reach to the ends of the earth.

Mohamad safa After much reflection, and after it became clear to me that some UN seniors are serving a powerful lobby and not the UN, I have decided to suspend all my duties as PVA Main Representative at the UN and from all UN committees/groups of which I am a member. I cannot in good conscience be part of or witness to what is happening at a time when the UN is preparing for possible nuclear weapon use. It has been an honor cooperating with the UN for nearly 12 years under different Secretaries-General and Human Rights Council Presidents, leading PVA delegation.

Canada is currently ruled by a cartel of ideological zealots and financial parasites who view the nation as a liquidation sale. The Liberal establishment has deliberately engineered the destruction of Canadian prosperity to secure praise from international tribunals and globalist forums. They have abandoned the fundamental duties of the state to serve foreign interests. They completely ignore the hardworking citizens who physically build our cities and harvest our resources from coast to coast. They favor a corrupt ruling class that produces absolutely nothing of tangible value while dictating how the rest of us must live. Mark Carney stands as the ultimate avatar of this managed decline. He is a rootless technocrat who floats between central banks and billionaire summits while preaching crippling austerity to the working class. Carney leverages the language of climate crisis and economic reform strictly as mechanisms of control and subjugation. His policies are designed to centralize …زیاتر
What the Serpent Could Not Tolerate The serpent did not come to corrupt Adam and Eve. He came to open their eyes. “Your eyes will be opened,” he promised, “and you will be like gods.” What followed was not enlightenment. It was the birth of the self as a competing center — the sudden awareness of one’s own interiority as something to be consulted, protected, and served. Their eyes opened. And the first thing they saw was that they were naked. The first fruit of the “open eyes” of “self” was shame. This is the Fall in its precise structure. Before it, Adam and Eve obeyed with what can only be called a blind obedience — not the blindness of ignorance, but the blindness of a will that had not yet learned to regard itself. They moved entirely toward God without the reflexive inward curl that makes fallen men pause, calculate, negotiate, and ultimately substitute their own judgment for His. They were blind to self-will because self-will had not yet entered the world. The serpent could …زیاتر
Absolute obedience is rejected by the Church. There are occasions that do call for absolute obedience, even to our superiors, however we live in an age and time when it is not possible. St. Paul was the first to reject the position of the pope, and this is recorded in Scripture, and is infallible. St. Thomas Aquinas rejects the position of absolute obedience. From the Council of Trent: "Should, however, the injunctions of parents be at any time opposed to the commandments of God, children, are, of course, to prefer the will of God to the desires of their parents, always keeping in view the divine maxim: ' We ought to obey God rather than men.'"And specifically with regard to obedience to bishops and priests:"Nay, more, Christ himself commands obedience even to wicked pastors: 'Upon the chair of Moses have sitten the Scribes and Pharisees: all things, therefore, whatsoever they shall say to you, observe ye and do ye;but according to their works do ye not, for they say and do not.…زیاتر
"Fun Church" in Holy Week: Fr. Simon Teller, O.P., published a video on March 29 about the different ways people use palms on Palm Sunday. The examples include the deconstructionist, the artist, the hoarder, the tickler, the sword fighter, and the panda mode. Fr. Teller is a chaplain at Providence College in the United States.
I agree that this video is in very bad taste because they are mocking/ridiculing a sacramental whether they realize it or not. I wouldn't consider making a cross out of the palms "artistic" but it was probably the only correct or pious way to use the palm.
Madonna della Rocca - March 30th, 2026 | No Greater Delight No Greater Delight is a daily Marian podcast meant to start the day with a Marian touch. After examining the Marian feasts celebrated throughout the world on a given day, Fr. Nate offers a brief reflection to help make our love for Our Lady concrete in daily living. The title "No Greater Delight" is inspired by a homily of Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, wherein he expresses his joy in preaching about the Virgin Mother, even though he acknowledges the challenge of adequately praising her.

La Madonna del Giorno (30 Marzo) – MADONNA DELLA ROCCA, Alessandria della Rocca, Agrigento, Sicilia, Italia La storia racconta che nel 1620, la Madonna apparve ad una giovane donna cieca di Alessandria ridonandole la vista in cambio di una chiesa nel luogo del ritrovamento di una sua statua nascosta nella roccia di una collina. I cittadini di Alessandria della Rocca dopo aver visto il miracolo di guarigione della donna cieca credettero alle sue parole e scavarono nel punto indicato dalla Madonna trovando una bella statua alta cm. 60, in marmo pario che sembra risalga all’epoca bizantina e raffigura la vergine Maria avvolta da un manto fregiato e panneggiato con in braccio Gesù bambino, che ha lo sguardo rivolto verso la madre.
