On 28 April, in the parish of Our Lady of the Rosary, known as the Sanctuary of Santa Terezinha, in Taubaté, São Paulo, Brazil, a priest disrespected a faithful and refused him Communion (video below).
The communicant was kneeling. Rev. Silvio José Dias tried to force the faithful to receive the Communion with his hands, but the layman refused to touch the Body of Christ [Noli me tangere" / "Do not touch me" Jn 20:17].
As a result, the disrespectful priest denied him Communion and turned around.
The Archdiocese of São Paulo told Metropoles.com (16 May) that a member of the faithful who is in a state of grace has a "right" to receive Communion.
"In situations where there is a risk of the Eucharist falling or being desecrated, such as in large crowds, it is recommended that Communion not be distributed in the hand".
The archdiocese added that in "exceptional circumstances", such as a "health emergency", a bishop may allow grabbing Communion with the hand [as if this were "more hygienic"]. …अधिक

In a meeting with 800 priests and religious in the Basilica of San Zeno during his visit to Verona on 18 May, Francis once again promoted formalism by calling for cheap absolution after an empty confession.
He overlooked the fact that confession has virtually died out after Vatican II precisely because of such formalism.
"Confession should not be a torture," he said, as if anyone had ever claimed it was. Then Francis, who is known to be vindictive and unforgiving, added: "Please forgive everything" and "forgive without making them suffer" - something Francis himself has never done since he has been running the Vatican.
If the priest doesn't understand what the penitent is saying, he should go on, because "the Lord understands", Francis said, revealing a magical understanding of confession.
Francis recalled a cardinal, a confessor [Cardinal Luis Pasqual Dri OFMcap, 96], who, when someone "had difficulty saying things", would tell the penitent: "Go on. I didn't understand, but God understood …अधिक

In a second short clip (below) released by '60 Minutes' (in addition to the one on 'conservative' bishops), Francis commented on his homosexual propaganda text 'Fiducia Supplicans'.
"What I have allowed is not to bless [a homosexual] union. I cannot do that because it is not a sacrament. I cannot do it. The Lord has made it so. But to bless every person, yes. The blessing is for everyone. For everyone. To bless homosexuals is against the law, against the law of the Church, but to bless every person, why not? The blessing is for everyone. Some people were scandalised by this. But why? For everyone, for everyone".
Francis' dishonesty is even more dislikable than his being unbelieving, rude, ambiguous, divisive, tyrannical, and hypocritical, etc. He knows full well that the text of 'Fiducia Supplicans' is not about blessing a single person, but about 'blessing irregular couples [= unrepentant mortal sinners]'. Couples are defined by their union.

Franziskus wird die argentinische Diözese San Luis mit seiner “Barmherzigkeit" schlagen.
Am 5. Dezember gab Bischof Pedro Daniel Martínez, 63, von San Luis, bekannt, dass Franziskus vom 10. bis 13. Dezember eine Apostolische Visitation in dessen Diözese angesetzt hat (Ankündigung unten). Sie wird von Bischof Milton Luis Tróccolli Cebedio, 55, von Maldonado-Punta del Este, Uruguay, durchgeführt.
Im Juli 2014 war Tróccolli als Weihbischof von Montevideo maßgeblich an der Apostolischen Visitation in der Diözese Ciudad del Este, Paraguay, beteiligt. Sie endete mit der Absetzung des ausgezeichneten Bischofs Rogelio Livieres im September 2014.
Martínez ist einer der wenigen guten argentinischen Bischöfe. Erst vor einem Monat veröffentlichte er ein Dekret, das Ministrantinnen verbietet.
Es wurde kein Grund für die Visitation angegeben. Bischof Martínez wurde nur wenige Tage vor dessen Beginn darüber informiert.

Married Spanish Ex-Bishop Xavier Novell "is not so orthodox or conservative" as he seemed, his wife Silvia Caballol told Antena3.com.
She is an author of pornographic literature. “It's one thing to preach and quite another to live it”, she explained.
According to her, Novell is not against homosexual sins and both have "many" homosexual and transvestite friends. Caballol believes that the Church has made "a lot of progress" [= regress] on these issues, "because now they give their [pseudo] blessing," Caballol says.
She does not deny that Novell himself attended sessions of a homosexual healing therapy. Infovaticana.com (May 18) adds that this rumor is widespread.
Interesting: Caballol claims and Infovaticana.com confirms, that only the "direct and express intervention" of Francis led to the wedding and that the required procedures (laization) were skipped.
Caballol adds that Novell is still “in limbo” because “he is still a bishop although he is no longer a bishop.” The “Church hierarchy …अधिक

Luxembourg Cardinal Jean-Claude Hollerich believes that Francis will not introduce [invalidly] ordained priestesses.
Simultaneously, he referred to one of the Dubia of five cardinals which asked about John Paul II’s teaching in Ordinatio Sacerdotalis that women cannot be priests. According to Jean-Claude Hollerich, “Francis responded very wisely: It is binding, but not forever” (Kath.ch, 17 May).
In other words: Ordinatio Sacerdotalis means nothing and can be changed at any time. Hollerich confirms this interpretation: “It is not an infallible doctrinal decision. It can be changed. It needs arguments and time.”
John Paul II defines in Ordinatio Sacerdotalis that “the Church has no authority whatsoever to confer priestly ordination on women.” What was true then, must also be true now. In October 1995, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger confirmed that Ordinatio Sacerdotalis is “infallible” and “is to be held always, everywhere, and by all, as belonging to the deposit of the faith”.
Since both …अधिक

On 17 May, Tucho Fernández published guidelines on alleged supernatural phenomena entitled "Norms for proceeding in the discernment of alleged supernatural phenomena."
The main change: Neither the local bishop nor the Vatican will declare that phenomena are of supernatural origin, but the Vatican can authorise the local bishop to declare that a phenomenon is "not supernatural".
There is no provision in these norms for ecclesiastical superiors to give positive recognition to the divine origin of alleged supernatural phenomena, the regulations state.
The second major change is the centralisation of the process, since Francis is the pope of Roman centralism. The local bishop's decisions must be given approval by the Vatican.
The document refers to cases in the 20th century where the local bishop declared a phenomenon to be supernatural, and the Vatican later issued a decision to the contrary. In other cases, a bishop said one thing and his successor said the opposite about the same phenomenon. …अधिक

Norah O'Donell of CBS News asked Francis during an interview that will be published in full next Sunday: "There are conservative bishops in the United States who oppose your new efforts to revisit teachings and traditions. How do you respond to their criticism?"
Francis: "They use this adjective 'conservative' [belittling smile]. A conservative is someone who clings to something and does not want to see beyond it. It is a suicidal attitude. Because it is one thing to consider tradition, to consider situations from the past. It is quite another to be locked up in a dogmatic box."
No Pope has lived so much in a "dogmatic box" as Francis, who runs after every ideology of the bygone 1960s, and indeed: this conservatism is suicidal for the Church and its disastrous results are visible to everybody.

A total of 49 Vatican employees are threatening to file a complaint over poor working conditions that "do not respect the basic principles of dignity".
The group includes 47 museum guards, a restorer and a bookshop worker. According to Italian media, they intend to take the Governatorato, the Vatican administration headed by Cardinal Fernando Vérgez Alzaga, a Spanish Legionary of Christ, to court if they do not receive a satisfactory response to their demands.
In a letter to Vérgez Alzaga, they say that the working conditions in the Vatican Museums are detrimental to the dignity and health of the workers.
They complain that they have been unfairly paid for overtime, that they have not received promotions and that they have to pay back part of the salary they received without working because of the closures during the Covid hysteria. Other Vatican workers may be ready to join the complaints.
The workers write that "legislation regulating the world of work in the Vatican is insufficient …अधिक

A 15 May synod report of the bishops of Austria strongly supports "sacramental deaconesses", which cannot exist.
The Austrian bishops claim to have had "good experiences" with women in leadership positions, although everyone knows that envy, pressure, paternalism, careerism, etc. are rampant.
For the bishops these "leadership positions" are still only "a partial answer". They speak of a "women's problem" ("enormous loss of credibility", "massive threat to the mission of the Church") and claim that it would be satisfactorily solved by the [invalid] "sacramental deaconess".
"While the priesthood of women is sporadically mentioned, there is a strong voice, supported by majorities in the dioceses (including the diocesan leadership, Linz deacons), in favour of admitting women to the diaconate". The prelates even claim that the mission of the Church is "made impossible" because women cannot be deacons.
This "ministry, sacramentally conferred by the laying on of hands, must be opened to women …अधिक

While I am doing mosaics for Glory of God, I seem to be visited by every Tom Dick and Harry
ever imaginable from both sides of the fence.
So here is my food for thought.
The extreme radical Novus Ordo disdain the Traditional Roman Church, just as much as the other way around. …….. and that’s ok, it was certainly like that during the time of Christ.
The Novus Ordo call the Traditionalist a bunch of hypocrites.
Well, I began to think about this, since I have plenty of time to think while placing each piece one at a time.
As a calm balanced discussion,
Why is it that the righteous group ……. rather all of the righteous groups including children do not fast every Wednesday and Friday? Why do not all these groups including children fast everyday for forty days during Lent and forty before Christmas? The Oriental Orthodox do. They ensure the entire family is near to Christ. Why also is it permitted to eat pork and shell fish, as it is law in the Old Testament? These are strict prohibitions in …अधिक

Harrison Butker, 28, a talented kicker for the Kansas City Chiefs, who attends the Roman Mass, proclaimed some truisms in a speech on 11 May at Benedictine College in Kansas (full video below).
The Kansas City Chiefs are a professional American football team. Butker's common sense provoked a backlash in obscurantist circles in the US, including the oligarchs' propaganda media. Butker said things like:
"I'm able to be the man I am because I've got a wife who leans into her calling. I'm more than blessed with the many talents God has given me. But it cannot be overstated that all of my success is made possible because a girl I met in band in junior high school converted to the faith, became my wife and took on one of the most important titles of all: homemaker.
She's the primary educator of our children. She's the one who makes sure I never let football or my business distract me from being a husband and father.
She is the person who knows me best at my core. And it is through our marriage …अधिक
