In the traditional Latin Mass, the sacrificial character is “very strongly visible,” Eduard Habsburg said at the Catholic Identity Conference in Pittsburgh on October 3. He spent 54 years in the Novus Ordo before discovering the Latin Mass, which “gives you space to sink into prayer and to contemplate and to meditate.” He also contrasted the two forms of the Mass: In the Latin Mass, “the sacrifice is very strongly visible.” But “in today’s Mass it is present but not as much in the forefront as in the Latin Mass.”
Eduard Habsburg, former Hungary’s ambassador to the Holy See: “If you follow the Traditional Latin Mass every day, you will notice that the reality of sacrifice, dying for the sins of others, giving your blood for the others — just the sacrifice is very strongly visible.”
Dutch Auxiliary Bishop Rob Mutsaerts of ’s-Hertogenbosch: “The Curia is not the Mystical Body of Christ, Vatican diplomacy is not divine revelation, and the dicastery is not protected by the charism of infallibility in every decision.” “Ecclesiastical appointments can be foolish and bishops can be cowardly and pastoral strategies can fail.”

Former Prince Andrew Files Legal Action Against U.K. Police After Arrest nytimes.com/…rince-andrew-police-lawsuit-epstein-… Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested this year as part of an investigation into his links with Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted sex offender. By Megan Specia Reporting from London Oct. 5, 2026, 5:42 a.m. ET Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly known as Prince Andrew, has begun legal action against the British police force that arrested him this year as part of its investigation into his links to Jeffrey Epstein. Mr. Mountbatten-Windsor, the younger brother of King Charles III, was arrested in February on suspicion of misconduct in public office over accusations that he had shared confidential information with Mr. Epstein, the convicted sex offender. Mr. Mountbatten-Windsor was later released without charge. The Thames Valley Police, the force that arrested Mr. Mountbatten-Windsor, said in a statement on Monday that it was “engaged in legal proceedings in relation …更に表示
Paweł Lisicki ostro krytykuje słowa Leona XIV o roli religii. Papież podkreśla, że żywotność tradycji religijnych przejawia się w służbie pokojowi i braterstwu. Lisicki odpowiada bez ogródek: „100% ideologii masońskiej”. Jego zdaniem takie podejście sprowadza katolicyzm do budowania pokoju i braterstwa między ludźmi, zamiast stawiać w centrum Boga i prawdę religijną
Bishop Schneider: FSSPX Consecrations Do Not Necessarily Constitute "Schism" Bishop Athanasius Schneider has issued his first public statement since Leo XIV declared six FSSPX bishops excommunicated on July 2, published on Diane Montagna's Substack. Schneider had previously appealed for liturgical peace, meeting with Pope Leo XIV in December 2025 and Cardinal Parolin a little over a week before the July 1 episcopal consecration. Bishop Schneider's central claim: in an extraordinary Church crisis, fidelity to unambiguous doctrine and traditional liturgy can outweigh obedience to ecclesiastical law. He opens with St. Athanasius, excommunicated by Pope Liberius in 357 for refusing communion with Arian bishops the Pope himself had recognized under imperial pressure. Athanasius was later canonized as a Doctor of the Church; Liberius was never canonized. Schneider treats Écône as a modern parallel — a forced choice between canonical obedience and doctrinal integrity. Bishop Schneider blames …更に表示
New Synodal Report: Laity at All Decision-Making Levels Today, the Vatican released the final report of Synodal Study Group 6, which deals with relations between bishops, religious and consecrated life, and lay ecclesial associations. Under a proposal to “establish more synodal structures,” the report calls for “equitable and participatory representation” of consecrated persons and laity “at all decision-making levels” - and: “as full members and not merely as consultants, in diocesan, national, and international commissions, as well as in Vatican dicasteries.” At the diocesan level “it is necessary to allow for broader participation of consecrated persons in the decision-making processes of the local Church.” Women Religious in the Selection of Bishops The report proposes to: “allow women religious to participate in the process of electing bishops responsible for consecrated life at the national and diocesan levels”. It also proposes their participation in the election of chaplains for …更に表示
Gloria.tv serves the Church by giving a voice to the faithful and to the truth. That independence comes at a price - quite literally. Gloria.tv serves its users - readers like you - with its own social-media technology. While editorial websites watch their readership plummet, Gloria.tv is growing and, according to Cloudflare Radar, ranks among the 10,000 largest websites in the world. No other Catholic media outlet ranks there. But here’s the straight talk: Having lots of users doesn’t pay our bills. There are no ads, and we serve our users for free. That’s how we want it. Gloria.tv depends on the generosity of a small group of ordinary faithful - many of them pensioners and praying widows. And to be blunt: This project runs on a very small budget. But not on no budget. That is why this autumn we are asking for your help again.

The Redemption of Man and the Rejection of “Holy Sex” A Patristic and Scholastic Disputation Against the Modern Exaltation of Carnal Pleasure “The first man Adam was made into a living soul; the last Adam into a quickening spirit.” —1 Corinthians 15:45 Prologue: The Question Before Us There is a fundamental question which must be asked before we speak of the holiness of sexual pleasure: What is man? And immediately after that: What became of man through the Fall? For if we begin with fallen man as though his present condition were the standard of human nature, we shall inevitably mistake the wounds of the Fall for the original design of God. This is precisely the danger in the modern exaltation of sexuality. The question is no longer merely: "Is marital intercourse lawful?" The Catholic tradition already answers that question. The more profound question is: "What ought the Christian to desire within the marital act?" And here a profound difference appears between the ascetical tradition …更に表示
