On August 7, around 100 Freemasons from different obediences gathered at the Col de Vergio in Corsica, France, nearly 1,500 metres above sea level, for a summer lunch. Among those attending was Cardinal François Bustillo, Bishop of Ajaccio. According to LeCanardEnchaine.fr (August 18), the Cardinal spoke at length about “peace”. The Cardinal is one of the rising stars of the French episcopate. Seated beside him was Jean-Félix Acquaviva, the former autonomist MP currently under investigation for alleged passive corruption (offering positions to young women in exchange for sexual favours). Acquaviva has denied the allegations. #newsAoonddakbb
Once again! The scandals are filling up. The Catholic good posts are ignored by many. Don't you people ever get enough of this trash? Well, you are what you love.

"War will come from the south, peace from the north North is said to be Russia! The South, Islam. "But behold, a great warrior from the north appears, a banner in his right hand, his arm bearing this inscription: 'Irresistible is the hand of the Lord.' At that moment the Venerable Old Man of Rome went forward to meet him, wielding a flaming torch. The banner then grew larger and its blackness became white as snow; in its center stood out the name of the Almighty in golden letters.

"The foolishness of man. For nothing is more foolish than to live in idleness in the present life, where a man ought to work for himself so that he may live in eternity. He found them idle in the market place. (Matt. 20:3) This market place is the present life. The market placee, or forum, is called the place in which lawsuits are conducted and in which buying and selling take place; and it signifies the present life, which is full of disputes, of buying and selling, and in which even the benefits of grace, progress, and heavenly glory are sold in exchange for good works. And those men were idle because they had already lost part of their life. And they are called idle not only those who do evil, but also those who do not do good. And just as the idle do not attain their end, neither do these. The end of man is eternal life. Therefore, he who works in the way he ought will obtain it, provided he is not idle." — St. Thomas Aquinas, Serm. in Dom. Septuages. St. Thomas Aquinas (@aquinaswisdom)
Sons of Thunder: Those who burned in blazing Zeal for Yahweh, the God of Sinai, Yahweh, the God of Israel. 1) Luke 9:52-54; He sent messengers ahead of him, and they went and entered a Samaritan village to make preparations for Him; but they did not welcome Him because He was on His way to Jerusalem. When His disciples James and John (Boanerges: sons of thunder, Mark 3:17) saw this, they said, “Lord, do you want us to call down fire from heaven to consume them?” 2) Prophet Elijah answered Yhaweh: "I am filled with burning zeal for Yahweh Sabaoth, because the sons of Israel have deserted you and broken down your altars” (1 King 19:10) a) 1 Kings 18:38-40; The fire of Yahweh fell and consumed the burnt offering and the wood, and licked up the water from the trenches. All the people saw this, and they fell on their faces and said, “The LORD is God; the LORD is God!” Elijah said to them, “Seize the prophets of Baal; let not a single one of them escape.” So they seized them, and Elijah led …More
1) Łukasz 9:52-54; Wysłał przed sobą posłańców, a oni udali się do pewnej wioski samarytańskiej, aby przygotować dla Niego miejsce; nie przyjęli Go jednak, ponieważ zmierzał do Jerozolimy. Gdy Jego uczniowie Jakub i Jan (Boanerges: synowie gromu, Mk 3:17) to zobaczyli, rzekli: „Panie, czy chcesz, abyśmy sprowadzili ogień z nieba, by ich strawił?”. 2) Prorok Eliasz odpowiedział Jahwe: „Jestem przepełniony płonącą gorliwością ku Jahwe Sabaoth, ponieważ synowie Izraela opuścili Ciebie i zburzyli Twoje ołtarze” (1 Krl 19:10) a) 1 Krl 18:38-40; Ogień Jahwe spadł i strawił ofiarę całopalną oraz drewno, a także wchłonął wodę z rowów. Cały lud to widział, upadł na twarze i rzekł: „Pan jest Bogiem; Pan jest Bogiem!” Eliasz rzekł do nich: „Chwyćcie proroków Baala; niech żaden z nich nie ucieknie”. Chwycili ich więc, a Eliasz zaprowadził ich nad potok Kiszon i tam ich zabił. b) Księga Syracha 48:1-3, 9-10; Prorok Eliasz powstał jak ogień; jego słowo płonęło jak pochodnia.

The University of Notre Dame's McGrath Institute for Church Life has published on July 17 a report containing twelve proposals for assessing candidates for the priesthood. Entitled, "Do You Know Them to Be Worthy?", the file was written by Father Thomas V. Berg and psychologist Timothy G. Lock. The report draws on research commissioned from the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate (CARA) and a consultation held at Notre Dame in September 2025. The proposals concern psychological assessment, candidates with particular psychological or developmental conditions, and formation for chastity and celibacy. It addresses candidates with conditions including ADHD, obsessive-compulsive disorder and autism spectrum disorder. On homosexual attraction, the Notre Dame authors note that a pause in formation may "more often than not" lead to a decision not to advance a candidate toward ordination. The authors think the pause is needed to assess four things: - how the man understands his identity; …More
St. Bridget was told by the Lord that bad priests are not truly His priests, but true betrayesr, worse than Judas in some ways, because they sell Christ after He has already redeemed the world. They handle the sacred Host while living in lust, greed, and double lives, then return to sin with firm intention. The priesthood is the greatest dignity on earth, but also carries the strictest judgment (James 3:1).
"Mary sits at the right hand of Jesus like a Queen. [The answer to the sons of Zebedee and their mother's question to Jesus]. She is the most safe refuge and the most fruitful helper of all who are in danger, so there is no reason to fear." St. Pius X
"Filled with indignation against the usurer, they declared his body should not be buried in consecrated ground, and taking it off the catafalque, dragged it out of the city and threw it on a place where dead beasts were buried. This wonderful occurrence did not fail to produce a good and lasting impression on the people. From that time usury was almost stamped out of Florence; but the respect and veneration in which St. Anthony was held were such that he and his companion fled from the city to seek the solitude of Mt. Alvernia."
[St. Anthony of Padua XII-XIII Century AD; born: Lisbon, Kingdom of Portugal/died: Padua, Holy Roman Empire; (aged 35); powerful preaching, expert knowledge of scripture, and undying love and devotion to the poor and the sick; canonized less than a year after his death; Doctor of the Church] 16 ~ Where the treasure is, there also is Thy Heart Among the many vices infesting Florence, usury was the one against which the saint waged the greatest war. St. Bonaventure himself relates an occurrence which took place in that city, and of which St. Anthony availed himself in one of his sermons to illustrate how severely God punishes that vice. A rich usurer died, and whilst the saint was in prayer God revealed to him that this man s soul was in hell on account of his unjust dealings with others. An immense crowd of people had gone to hear the saint preach the funeral sermon. He at once, on ascending the pulpit, began by pointing out the heinousness of the sin of usury, declaring that usurers in …More
The main point of the third secret can be summed up in the words of Melanie Calvat: "Rome will lose the faith and become the seat of the Antichrist." A heretic antipope will completely take over the Vatican apparatus and consummate Luther's Gnostic revolution and will erect a counterfeit church -- a "church" that will replace the primacy of the pope with sinodality, thereby creating a federation of regional hierarchies. It will be a Masonic inspired "dogma free Christianity" with no moral absolutes, and it will replace the holy sacrifice of the Mass with an invalid rite. The true sacrifice of the altar will be abolished. The false ecumenical religion will gain state recognition. Adherents of the Catholic religion will be severely persecuted by the civil powers. The true pope will be hunted down and killed. Then there will be world war, frightful epidemics that will exterminate entire nations, and starvation almost everywhere. There will be catastrophic natural disasters that will annihilate …More
I don't care for XI. I don't trust him at all. But there is nothing that can be done. As Putin told Tucker. We can't choose our neighbors. But GOD will protect Russia from all her enemies.
Poland is in discussion with the United States to add nuclear warheads. Russia claims it’s not bluffing for nuclear war. Is the establishment in Washington DC allowing this to become World War 3? It's said that Poland is the biggest instigator and hater of Russia and Putin. And there it is. With trump the forked tongue beast now boasting how he will wipe Iran and Russia out with nukes. Why do people deny this truth? Both said it. why deny it it?
Poland is full of hate and ignorance. Though I have seen some who are honest and good. One was on gtv. One minute he was posting and the next he was gone. He said, I have to be very careful because my country suppresses the truth and censors us. It's against the law to speak good about Russia and Putin. Which he did strongly. Now I worry about him. With the trolls and propagandist even on gtv, I worry about him up till today. Did someone from gtv report him? I hope not. But I have a few people in mind who would stoop so low.
Pope Pius XII in the Papal Encyclical Ad Caeli Reginam proposed the traditional doctrine on the Queenship of Mary and established this feast for the Universal Church. Blessed Pope Pius IX said of Mary’s Queenship: “Turning her maternal Heart toward us and dealing with the affair of our salvation, she is concerned with the whole human race. Constituted by the Lord Queen of Heaven and Earth, and exalted above all choirs of Angels and the ranks of Saints in Heaven, standing at the right hand of Her only begotten Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, she petitions most powerfully with Her maternal prayers, and she obtains what she seeks.” Pope Pius XII added the following: “We command that on the festival there be renewed the consecration of the human race to the Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Upon this there is founded a great hope that there will rejoice in the triumph of religion and in Christian peace… “Therefore, let all approach with greater confidence now than before, to the …More

Further evidences as to the irregular CONCLAVE 2025 [illegal / rule break] as to the status of Robert Prevost as Pope Leo XIV Canon 332 §1 declares Pope Leo XIV an anti-pope We are living in a very peculiar age in the history of the Catholic Church. As readers of FromRome.Info, from February 11, 2013 until December 31, 2022, the Catholic Church was caught up in a program of mass confusion which broke out over the terms of Canon 332 §2, which reads as follows: Canon 332 § 2. — Si contingat ut Romanus Pontifex muneri suo renuntiet, ad validitatem requiritur ut renuntiatio libere fiat et rite manifestatur, non vero ut a quopiam acceptatur. Which in English is: Canon 332 § 2. — If it happen that the Roman Pontiff renounce his munus, for validity there is required that the renunciation be made freely and be manifested duly (rite), but not that it be accepted by anyone at all. Here “rite” means in accord with due procedure: “rite” being the Latin word for “according to the ritual”. This …More
After a Scholar’s Awful Death, Mistaken Calls for Censorship - A Rush to Pin a Sad Death on the Media Aug. 17, 2026 nytimes.com/…pinion/jason-arday-cambridge-plagiar… By Michelle Goldberg Opinion Columnist Last year, Jack Grove, a reporter for Times Higher Education, a British magazine, was preparing an article about plagiarism allegations against the star academic Jason Arday. It would have been a big story because Arday, who in 2023 became Cambridge’s youngest-ever Black professor, was a minor celebrity, thanks in part to his seemingly extraordinary biography. Among other things, Arday said that he’d gotten his Ph.D. despite severe autism that left him nonverbal until he was 11 and unable to read until he was 18. He’d claimed to have run 600 miles in six days, which would have made him one of the world’s most accomplished ultramarathoners. Grove sent Arday three emails with questions about both his work and his history. Arday responded by hiring one of Britain’s leading defamation …More
