Now, we have a cardinal in Chieti (while Los Angeles hasn't had a cardinal for many years now).
Confirmed: Pope Leo XIV has appointed Cardinal Mauro Gambetti, 60, as Metropolitan Archbishop of Chieti-Vasto. The move brings Gambetti’s tenure as Archpriest of St Peter’s Basilica, Vicar General for Vatican City and President of the Fabric of St Peter to an end. His successor at the Vatican has not yet been announced. Cardinal Gambetti's years in the Vatican were marked by repeated controversies, many of which were brought to public attention primarily by SilereNonPossum.com. The investigation was based on documents, photographs, videos and testimony. Among other issues, SilereNonPossum reported favouritism in personnel appointments - including the hiring of people personally connected to Gambetti. Other scandals included controversial expenditure, costly events and projects, and concerns over the maintenance and management of the Basilica. Cardinal Gambetti succeeds Archbishop Bruno Forte, whose resignation Pope Leo XIV has accepted. The transfer comes after months of rumours that …Gehiago

Did you know that "real" Muslims believe JESUS will return to fight along side the righteous against tyranny and oppression? JESUS is not just a prophet from the past. He is a partner in the ultimate victory of good over evil. Do Shia Muslims hate Jesus? The answer is definitely NO! and In this video, I explain what Shia Islam really teaches about Jesus Christ — his miraculous birth, his miracles, his status as a beloved prophet, and the belief that he will return alongside the Mahdi to establish justice on earth. I also share a scene you've never heard: for over thirty years, Ayatollah Khamenei personally visited the homes of Christian martyrs' families during the Iran-Iraq War. I also show you the 380 churches in Iran, the Christian representatives in parliament, and the Tehran metro station named after the Holy Mary. Yes, there are theological differences. But Jesus is not a dividing line between us. He is a bridge. I posted Ayatollah Khamenei in a Christian home where he spoke …Gehiago

Non-stop applause for Leo XIV. Vatican Media published this picture from Leo XIV’s audience with representatives of Gruppo Hera on October 1. It shows members of the delegation standing and applauding the Pope. Every day, Leo XIV receives such standing ovations in the Vatican. His speech called for stronger environmental responsibility, warning against the “uncontrolled consumption of resources” and the growing problem of managing and disposing of “enormous quantities of waste.” #newsJqizykucsc
Please, is there any real video recording of those 4 minutes long applause to him? Try to find it, because that would be revealing — what exactly uberhyperpapolatry means! Which, btw., does not have to mean that it necessarily has to do with the real papacy. Which actually if it had, it wouldn't be called - UBERHYPERPAPOLATRY!
Homily Sunday, October 4, 2026 Isaiah 5:1-7 He waited for judgment, but see, bloodshed! for justice, but hark, the outcry!” Let us share the peace of God that is in our hearts. Philippians 4:6-9 “The God of peace will be with you.” Thank you, Lord, for being with us. Matthew 21:33-43 “This is the heir. Come, let us kill him!” When one person, just one person, decides to exclude someone, it becomes impossible to stop the slander. Biblical texts: NAB-RE Normand Thomas.
The Dissenter @disntr UCC "pastor" Rev. Nathan Dannison gives long-winded explanation of why he can call his god a "queer god." He then explains why there is ackshuuually "no biblical definition of marriage" and the language of "one man and one woman" was added in 2003 to benefit "people in power."
Advocate General Laila Medina at the European Court of Justice has issued an opinion in a Belgian case that could have wider implications across the EU for how churches handle requests to erase baptismal records under the GDPR. She concluded that everyone has “in principle, the right to have his or her personal data erased from the baptismal register where the controller fails to demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subject.”
The USA’s Only Approved Marian Apparition: Fr. Tony Stephens on Adele Brice & Our Lady of Champion "You have received Holy Communion, and that is good, but you must do more." Father Tony Stephens, Rector of the National Shrine of Our Lady of Champion, joins CatholicTV to discuss the USA’s only approved Marian apparition. What did the Mother of God ask of an illiterate, blind-in-one-eye Belgian immigrant woman in the wilderness of 19th-century Wisconsin? Father Tony Stephens joins Bishop Robert Reed on This Is the Day to explore the urgent, prophetic message of Our Lady of Champion and celebrate the formal opening of the canonization cause for Servant of God Adele Brice. In October 1859, the Queen of Heaven appeared three times to young Adele Brice, giving her a vital mission: pray for the conversion of sinners, teach the children what they need to know for salvation, and rebuild the faith in a rugged frontier territory. Fr. Stephens breaks down why this simple Third Order Franciscan …Gehiago
Annibale Bugnini A more serious age sang the Dies Irae at Requiem Masses. Apparently, Annibale Bugnini—I believe his first name is an Italian version of the ancient Punic (Carthaginian / Phoenician) name Hanniba'al, which means „Baal is Gracious” or „Favoured by Baal”— said he had eliminated the sequence from funerals and other Masses for the Dead, because it: “smacked of a negative spirituality inherited from the Middle Ages.” Dies irae - Wikipedia Annibale or Hannibal wich means: “Baal is gracious” or “Favoured by Baal” / “The grace of Baal” — is a theophoric name (a name that contains the name of a god), which was very common in the ancient Phoenician and Carthaginian world. The most „famous“ bearer of this name, I would say, untill Bugnini, was the great Carthaginian general Hannibal Barca (3rd century BC), who crossed the Alps with elephants to fight against Rome. According to the well-known (and controversial) Pecorelli list and related traditionalist sources, the alleged …Gehiago
Monsignor Gilles Wach, founder and prior general of the traditionalist Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest (ICRSP), has been an honorary member of the Rotary Club Firenze Valdisieve for years. Medias-Presse.info highlights Rotary publications from both 2014 and 2024 describing Monsignor Wach as an honorary member, including on occasions when the club was received at the ICRSP seminary in Gricigliano. In 1950, the Holy Office issued a decision, approved by Pope Pius XII, forbidding Catholic clergy from joining Rotary Clubs or attending their meetings. Catholic authorities at the time cited concerns including religious indifferentism and Masonic or anticlerical influences. Medias-Presse.info asks: how does Monsignor Wach reconcile his Rotary affiliation with the tradition his Institute professes to uphold?
