Marriage and family: “We can no longer continue as before. It is a change, an evolution.” At today’s closing press conference of the Vatican meeting marking ten years of Amoris Laetitia, Msgr. Philippe Bordeyne, president of the Pontifical John Paul II Theological Institute for Marriage and Family Sciences, declared: “We can no longer continue as before” in family ministry. Asked about marital failures, he described an “evolution” in the meeting’s approach to family “fragility”: rather than focusing on irregular marital situations, it now treats fragility as a universal human condition. “I don’t know whether it is a step forward, but it is a change, an evolution.”
Bordeyne : « Nous ne pouvons plus continuer comme avant » dans la pastorale familiale. Et : « Je ne sais pas si c’est un pas en avant, mais c’est un changement, une évolution. »

Introduction of monogamy in Africa was an “injustice.” German bishops’ website highlights defense of polygamy. Katholisch.de, the German bishops’ news portal, yesterday promoted the favorable views on polygamy of Father Égide Muziazia from Münster. Originally from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Muziazia has lived in Germany since 2006 and was ordained in 2011. “Polygamy in Africa is neither merely a moral failing nor a sign of moral backwardness. Rather, it is a social institution embedded in a comprehensive network of kinship, alliance-building, and the transmission of life,” he said. The encounter with Christian missionaries led to a “head-on cultural clash,” according to Muziazia. “Monogamy was demanded as a prerequisite for baptism. The monogamous marriage thus became the hallmark of the exemplary Christian—with the result that the ‘surplus’ wives were often cast aside - an injustice committed in the name of the Gospel.” The priest praises the Vatican Synod Secretariat’s …Aswan
If one member of a monogamously-married heathen couple wants to be baptized, must they renounce their marriage as false prior to baptism? . Given that God allowed Moses to allow polygamy, on what basis, exactly, does the Church refuse baptism to polygamously-married heathen? . Don't forget that even the unrepentant can be validly baptized (and thereby remitting original sin), although such a baptism does not bestow sanctifying grace. How is a polygamous marriage different from that?

In recent years, Poland has emerged as one of the most rapidly militarizing EU nations, with its military spending reaching around 4.7% of its GDP. The country has also been one of Kiev’s staunchest backers in its conflict with Moscow, providing Ukraine with weapons, including artillery systems, tanks, armored vehicles, warplanes, and ammunition. Some estimates place Poland in first place among all other Western countries in terms of the volume of assistance provided relative to its own GDP. Poland has also served as a key logistical hub for Ukraine-bound arms shipments from other countries. There is no Jan lll Sobieski anymore in Poland. There won't be anyone saying the Rosary, carrying banners of The Blessed Mother, praying before the battle. It's said, all evil will be destroyed. And Poland is one of the worst I have heard or seen so far. But they will get theirs in the end. Poland will not be totally destroyed. But it will be pretty bad by the end of it all. They will get what they …Aswan

The promoted prelate acknowledged that, in such circumstances, baptism “does not confer sanctifying grace”.

However, he added that he doesn’t believe celibacy is the principal cause of the shortage of priests. Asked about the possibility of female deacons, Monsignor Vieira said: “The Synod has no decision-making …Aswan
Celibacy: The brighter the priestly chastity shines, the more the priest becomes, together with Christ, 'a pure, holy, and spotless offering' [Roman Missal, Canon]. - As the Catechism notes in paragraph 1579, priests of the Latin Church are not allowed to marry. The Catechism cites Christ's words from Matthew 19:12, 'for the sake of the kingdom of heaven,' as the reason for this celibacy.
The South American church has always been a mile wide and an inch deep (e.g., it routinely turned a blind eye to priests with girlfriends or common law wives and children). Then came Liberation Theology, which pretty much displaced Christ's actual teachings, which then infected its seminarians, who became priests then bishops then archbishops . . . then popes.

When asked about blessings for homosexuals, the bishop emphasised compassion and the importance of pro-homosexual psychology: “Psychology helps us greatly, not only in our concrete approach to a person, but also in understanding the truth.” After admitting that there “are universal norms” he added a “but” to say that “we need to see the concrete person standing before us.” “Sometimes that person's story may …Aswan

In the 2017 horror film El Habitante, a fictional news report announces the death of Pope Leo XIV from septicemia and irreversible cardiopulmonary collapse after a week in hospital. Eight years later, Robert Prevost adopted the same papal name. Director Guillermo Amoedo explained that he wrote the script in 2015, drawing on the prophecies of St. Malachy and Hildegard of Bingen, apocryphal theories, and the history of antipopes. He described the coincidence as the result of historical and religious research, not a supernatural prediction. The film does not establish any real-world prophecy.
