On 25 March, Pakistan’s Federal Constitutional Court ruled that the 13-year-old Christian girl Maria Shabaz should be returned to the man accused of abducting and forcibly marrying her. Maria was reportedly abducted in July 2025 when she was 12 years old, forcibly converted to Islam, and married to a 30-year-old man. The legal marriage age in Punjab is 18. In recent weeks, three Catholic bishops and human rights organisations have issued statements urging the authorities to review the ruling.
Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Attaullah Tarar announced on Easter Sunday, April 5, that the government had constituted a committee to examine the March 25 judgment of the Federal Constitutional Court validating the marriage of 13-year-old Maria Shahbaz to 30-year-old Shaheryar Ahmad.

The sadomasochism group “Ecumenical Working Group on BDSM and Christianity” will be taking part in the 104th German Catholic Congress (Katholikentag) in Würzburg from 13 to 17 May. The Katholikentag is one of the largest gatherings of "Catholics" in Germany. It includes liturgical scandals, political discussions, cultural events, and stands from hundreds of different organisations. The sadomasochism group will host a stand from 14 to 16 May. Its members are “Christians” from various denominations who discuss sexuality and eroticism "particularly in the field of sadomasochistic sexual preferences". They aim to remove the taboo surrounding the topic and provide information about sadomasochistic practices within a 'faith' context. Also present at the Katholikentag will be the 'Network of Catholic Lesbians', which describes itself as an independent, feminist, Catholic-oriented spiritual network. #newsGobikwjarm
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said he told Pope Leo XIV on May 7 that Iran poses “a danger to the world, which is largely recognized.” He also described the Vatican meeting as “very cordial and important,” downplaying suggestions of animosity between the US and the Holy See.
Sec Marco Rubio: "I expressed to them on the situation with Iran, expressed our point of view about why this was an important and the danger that Iran posed us to the world, which is largely recognized." "The Holy Father is a spiritual leader, he's the first and foremost, that's his role to play, and obviously the church has always interacted on behalf of a mission for peace and a respect for all of humanity." "But at the end, it was very cordial and important meeting, and it's important to share our points of view and an explanation and an understanding of where we're coming from, and I thought it was very positive."
Mr. Rubio is mistaken; the real global danger (not for bodies but for souls) is that Satan is now sitting on the Throne of Peter and no one realizes it, treating him as if he were the Vicar of Christ.
By Alison Bevege https://lettersfromaustralia.substack.com/p/australia-sues-covid-vax-class-action Thousands of covid vaccine-injured Australians have been given new strength today after the Federal Court of Australia discussed dates for their class action to proceed. It has been a long road for the bereaved. They were pushed aside by the government at every turn, and they struggled with repeated submissions in their attempts to get justice through the courts since April 2023. In April last year, Justice Anna Katzmann gave their crowd-funded class action one last chance to overhaul its pleadings with a new legal team. Dominic Villa SC Queensland GP Dr Melissa McCann re-invigorated the case with Dominic Villa SC who represented the injured at their case management hearing in Federal Court April 24 before Justice Nicholas Owens.

Cardinal Robert Sarah spoke with La Nef on May 4 about his new interview book. Main quotes. On Francis: “It would be unjust to attribute to one man alone a crisis that largely preceded him. I had the opportunity to speak privately with Pope Francis to humbly share my concerns that practical ambiguity might blur doctrinal clarity.” Return of paganism within the Church: “This paganism can be recognized by several signs: the fading sense of sin, embarrassment at affirming revealed truth, the trivialization of liturgy, fascination with worldly categories, the forgetting of the Church’s supernatural purpose. When God is no longer first—even within the Church—everything else deteriorates.” Susceptibility to the spirit of the age: “One ends up believing that the Church will be better heard if she speaks like everyone else. But the world does not expect the Church to repeat its own words; it expects her to open Heaven to it.” Signs of renewal? “I believe the Church’s interior reform has …зиёдтар

VATICAN CITY, 29 April 2026 — Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernández has prepared a declaration of schism should the Society of St. Pius X proceed with episcopal consecrations in Écône on July 1. The Vatican is also making pastoral arrangements to welcome those who may leave the SSPX after it ordains new bishops without papal permission...
@V.R.S. , I’m not sure. But I believe the more pressing question is: What will the cardinals and bishops do? Will they choose to remain in communion with Protestants and other sects, effectively continuing the de facto ‘new church’ that has already taken shape? Or will they finally take action to dismantle this decades-long spectacle—this Circus du Soleil—that has blinded our eyes and poisoned the souls of believers?
The Polish priest Beniamin Sęktas (ordained in 2020) from the Diocese of Drohiczyn in eastern Poland publicly called for the resignation of Cardinal Grzegorz Ryś, 62, of Krakow. Pope Leo XIV had promoted the pro-homosexual Cardinal Ryś from Łódź to Krakow in November 2025. In an open letter published in mid-December 2025, Rev. Sęktas asked the Cardinal to resign. He called Cardinal Ryś a “public collaborator of rainbow Catholics.” Furthermore, Rev. Sęktas noted that Cardinal Ryś promotes extraordinary lay ministers to distribute Communion. The letter included statements such as: “You continue to shock and scandalize many Catholics” “the cynical face of an activist seeking the applause of opinion-forming elites” Bishop Henryk Sawczuk of Drohiczyn summoned Rev. Sęktas and reprimanded him. On May 4, the Diocese of Drohiczyn published a statement saying that the priest had violated the media guidelines adopted by the Polish Bishops’ Conference in 2023. The bishop also forbade him from …зиёдтар

But if I want to compare what both sides are saying on the same topic, I have to sit through it. Shortly after midnight today, the U.S. president wrote the following: Three World Class American Destroyers just transited, very successfully, out of the Strait of Hormuz, under fire. There was no damage done to the three Destroyers, but great damage done to the Iranian attackers. They were completely destroyed along with numerous small boats, which are being used to take the place of their fully decapitated Navy. These boats went to the bottom of the Sea, quickly and efficiently. Missiles were shot at our Destroyers, and were easily knocked down. Likewise, drones came, and were incinerated while in the air. They dropped ever so beautifully down to the Ocean, very much like a butterfly dropping …
