The Synod on Synodality was an “ironclad manipulation,” Cardinal Joseph Zen, 93, said in his three-minute intervention at the consistory held January 7–8. The text of his speech was published on the Substack account of Edward Pentin CardinalNews.Substack.com. Prior to the consistory, Cardinal Zen was received in private audience by Pope Leo XIV. Synod’s Invocation of the Holy Spirit Verges on Blasphemy In his intervention, Cardinal Zen criticized the late Pope Francis and the synodal process he initiated: “The ironclad manipulation of the process is an insult to the dignity of the Bishops, and the continual reference to the Holy Spirit is ridiculous and almost blasphemous.” Francis, he said, expected “surprises” from the Holy Spirit. Cardinal Zen responded: “What surprises? That He should repudiate what He inspired in the Church’s two-thousand-year Tradition?” Cardinal Zen noted that Francis bypassed the Episcopal College, listened directly to selected members of the laity, and …Күберәк
09.01.2026 POPE LEO AND THE CONSISTORY VIOLATE ARISTOLE’S PRINCIPLE OF NON CONTRADICTION AND NEWTON’S LAWS OF PHYSICS : TO APPEASE THE POLITICAL - LEFT Pope Leo violates the Principle of Non Contradiction of Aristotle, in the interpretation of Vatican Council II. The Consistory follows him. If someone is saved outside the Catholic Church, without ‘faith and baptism’ (AG 7), he is in Heaven and known only to God. But for Pope Leo and the Consistory, he is an explicit exception for the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus (EENS) of the Council of Florence 1442. In other words, he is visible on earth, to be an exception for the past exclusivist ecclesiology of the Catholic Church. But an invisible person cannot be an exception for EENS. Someone has to be there, to exist in our reality, to be an exception. BOX OF ORANGES If there is a box oranges and there is an apple in the middle of that box, then that apple is an exception, since it is different but also because it is there in that box.…Күберәк
Minnesota Diocese Gives ‘Ad Orientem’ Worship a Shot: Unlike the Traditional Latin Mass, which refers to the form of the Roman Rite prior to the reforms of Vatican II, ad orientem is a posture that can be used in the celebration of the post-conciliar Mass.
A group of Catholics in Lebanon have launched a legal bid to prevent an upcoming performance by Portuguese priest Guilherme Peixoto. His "music" blends electronic dance beats with religious imagery. He is scheduled to perform at the AHM nightclub in Beirut on 10 January. The petitioners have submitted a request to a Beirut summary affairs judge, seeking to halt the concert. They argue that the performance 'undermines church values' and 'misrepresents Christian rituals', citing concerns over a priest performing as a DJ in a nightclub. However, resorting to the state in such matters is futile. Padre Peixoto is due to preside over a Eucharist in Kaslik on the same day. Supporters rightly argue that his ministry and artistic work are officially recognised by church authorities in many countries. He also performed at World Youth Day in Lisbon in 2023, just before Pope Francis's Eucharist. #newsFaulcgdlqq
Wide Awake Media @wideawake_media In 1991, globalist think tank the Club of Rome released a document titled 'The First Global Revolution', in which they announced "global warming" as the new pretext to wage war on humanity. "In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill. All these dangers are caused by human intervention and it is only through changed attitudes and behaviour that they can be overcome." "The real enemy, then, is humanity itself."
This is the only photograph ever taken of the Brothers Grimm. You know their fairy tales—but you don't know what they really did. A daguerreotype studio in Germany. Two elderly men sit stiffly for the camera—new technology that requires them to remain motionless for several seconds. Jacob is 62, his younger brother Wilhelm is 61. They've spent their entire adult lives working side by side. This single photograph would become the only authenticated image of both brothers together. Most people know them for one thing: Grimm's Fairy Tales. Cinderella. Snow White. Rapunzel. Hansel and Gretel. Rumpelstiltskin. Stories that have been told to children for two centuries, adapted into countless films, embedded so deeply in our culture that we forget they came from somewhere—from someone. But here's what most people don't know: the Brothers Grimm didn't write fairy tales. They rescued them. THE MISSION THAT STARTED EVERYTHING Jacob Ludwig Carl Grimm and Wilhelm Carl Grimm were born just one year …Күберәк
01/09/2026 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. In her article yesterday, Sascha Latypova described the business model of pediatrics in detail. The article on sashalatypova.substack.com is titled: See Baby, Shoot Baby, Bill! or The Business Model of Pediatrics. This post examines the perverse financial incentives and “pay-to-vax” mechanisms that underlie the greatest human tragedy in known history – mass poisoning of several generations of children with unregulated, liability-free poisons, aka “vaccines”. Payment mechanisms enforcing full CDC vaccination schedule and annual boosters (such as flu shots and covid shots) include federal (Medicaid), state (Medicaid and CHIP), local (Section 317) and private insurers schemes. An average pediatric practice obtains approximately 25% of the total annal revenue from direct vaccine reimbursement or administration fees. However, the impact on the profit from vaccine revenues is much greater than 25%. This is because numerous “incentive” schemes …
[Saint HILDEGARD OF BINGEN ~ XI-XII Century AD; Bermersheim, Holy Roman Empire/Bingen am Rhein, Holy Roman Empire, aged 81; Abbess, Polymath, Writer, Composer, Mystic, Visionary, Philosopher, Medical Writer and Practitioner, Composer of Sacred Monophony, Virgin, Founder, Doctor of the Church] “3. Before and after the Incarnation the Word remains indivisibly and eternally with the Father You see in your vision ‘the fire having a flame the colour of the air, brightly burning in the gentle breeze, and as inseparable from the shining fire as a human being is inseparable from his inner organs’. This is the infinite Word, which is in the Father before time, before the working of creation. In the glow of love, this Word was to become incarnate, in the course of time, miraculously and without stain or weight of sin, through the pure green vigour of the Holy Spirit in the dawn of blessed maidenhood. And before his assumption of flesh the Word was indivisible in the Father and remained inseparable …Күберәк
"‘And breathing life into it so that it rose up as a living man.’ This means that the flame awakens him with heavenly power and marvellously brings forth a rational human being made up of body and soul.”
"‘And it heated the clump of earth, turning it to flesh and blood.’ This means that the flame through green vigour pours heat into the clump of earth, because earth is the material out of which human flesh is made, nourishing it with its moisture like a mother suckling a child.

Communing with sin is like a discussion with Satan, who is a fallen, but nevertheless an angel. He surpasses us in cleverness and intelligence . Without an established faith in the Most High God, we are only puppets in his hands. He often uses the lowest human instincts, such as lusts, sins of impurity – which God greatly abhors. Satan uses them because they affect all of man’s senses and it is easier to entrap him. Talking about sins of impurity or carnal sins should be short, firm without unnecessary explanations. Any unraveling and details open our minds to evil desires. You can see the shadow of the fallen one by listening to priests, especially the elderly, talking about some perversion that they advocate. You look at them and think: what are you old men talking about? How do you know such things? Why do you delve into abominations when you were supposed to live a celibate life? Why do you justify them?
Cardinal Leopoldo Brenes, 76, of Managua, Nicaragua, did not attend the consistory held in Rome on 7–8 January. He stated that he was not invited, claiming that he had checked his emails, WhatsApp messages and communications from the College of Cardinals. However, on 8 January, senior Church sources told LaPrensaNi.com that Cardinal Brenes had received an invitation to participate in the consistory but had refused to go for undisclosed reasons. The sources also indicated that there may be ongoing or attempted negotiations with the Nicaraguan government. The Church has faced sustained confrontation with the Ortega regime, resulting in persecution, restrictions on religious activity and the forced exile of several bishops.

So..., not a 'computer guy'.... One does have to wonder, however, if he was as oblivious as this about checking his "social media" (in itself not necessarily a bad thing; some prelates - Prevost anyone? - are on it way too much!) before opening his mouth, is this really the kind of 'leadership' the Church requires at the moment ?!
2 Peter 2:1-2 "There were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies and, denying the Master who bought them, will bring swift destruction upon themselves. Many will follow their debauchery, and because of them, the Way of truth will be blasphemed. Romans 6:23 : "The wages of sin is death".
It's like the time I visited an airport chapel that actually had a scheduled daily Mass for travelers AND the Blessed Sacrament present in a tabernacle - BUT they also had a "prayer rug corner" for Muslims. Some came in while I was saying the breviary and I resolved NOT to leave until they did to ensure no profanation. Luckily I had a long layover so I silently prayed the Jesus Prayer as they did their "rituals" in the back.
