– Folha de S. Paulo, January 12, 1983 – by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira I revisit the points I discussed in my last article about the position five prominent Brazilian bishops have taken on the legalization of the Brazilian Communist Party. 1. As I see it, four of the five prelates who addressed the issue in Folha de S. Paulo (December 26, 1982) went beyond their authority and essentially supported the creation of a hidden yet harsh centrist dictatorship in Brazil — one disguised as a strange democracy where disagreement would no longer be a right. In such a system, freedom in the secular sphere would be limited to the right — actually, the obligation — to endorse whatever the bishops decide. As emphasized in a previous article, I agree that the PCB should not be given the right to operate. I am convinced that no democracy, nor any of the three legitimate forms of government, can recognize such a right. This is not because communist preaching itself is a serious threat. It is permitted in …Ọzọ
“Do-It-Yourself” Bishop Factory: Fr. Michael Mary, founder and superior of the Transalpine Redemptorists at Papa Stronsay, Scotland, declared himself a sedevacantist on May 7. Today, he was consecrated as a sedevacantist bishop in the dubious Thục line. The "consecration" was performed by Bishop Pierre Roy, with Bishops Rodrigo Ribeiro da Silva and Fernando Altamira serving as "co-consecrators".

According to Our Lady of Lasalette, they are two worm ridden Popes. I don't recall her saying anything about fake or pretend or imposters etc. I also remember Marie-Julie Jahenny calling them two bad Popes. They are what they are. rotten to the core. We don't see things as GOD sees them. We don't know all GOD knows. Maybe he doesn't see the sede's as fake. Just really very bad Catholics. I don't know for sure. But I want nothing to do with the sede's or anyone else like them. As in the prots and so on.

Petites Sœurs disciples de l'Agneau Les Petites Sœurs disciples de l'Agneau forment une communauté religieuse, dont la particularité est d'accueillir des religieuses trisomiques. Fondée en 1985 par Sœur Line et installée au Blanc, dans l'Indre, en France, ses statuts furent définitivement approuvés en 2011. Petites Sœurs disciples de l'Agneau — Wikipédia La communauté des Petites Sœurs disciples de l'Agneau fut fondée en 1985 par sœur Line Rondelot après que celle-ci fut touchée par la foi et la vocation de Véronique, une jeune femme porteuse de trisomie 21 souhaitant devenir religieuse bien que toutes les communautés dans lesquelles elle s'était présentée eussent été réticentes à la prendre[1],[2].

Munich Liturgical Controversy Goes Around the Globe: Many Catholic media outlets across the globe - in English, French, Polish, Spanish, Italian, etc. - are reporting on the latest liturgical abuse from the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising. The case centers on a Mass for the feast of St. Mary Magdalene, where Auxiliary Bishop Wolfgang Bischof delivered a "dialogue homily" together with laywoman Theresia Reischl, despite the Holy See's recent reaffirmation that the homily during Mass is reserved to an ordained minister. The celebration also featured liturgical dancing and balloons, further fueling criticism.
After two years of diocesan vacancy, on 22 July, Bishop José Guadalupe Torres Campos, 66, was installed as the third Bishop of Ecatepec, Mexico. The diocese has 1.5 million Catholics and around 100 parishes. A native of León, Guanajuato, Torres Campos was until then the Bishop of Ciudad Juárez and has ministered along Mexico’s northern border for the last eleven years. Many pictures on the internet show him in civilian clothes. Leo XIV has appointed a vocal advocate of immigration and a pastoral ideologue of "closeness2 and "acocompaniment". Bishop Torres became known for his focus on migrants, including celebrating liturgical abuses in the middle of the Rio Grande border river. He was also committed to social outreach. During the installation, Bishop Torres described the “synodal” style of ministry he will represent: "I come with the sincere desire to listen before speaking, to understand before deciding, and to love before asking. I want to be a bishop who is close to the people, a …Ọzọ
Miracle in Venezuela: Four Survivors Pulled Alive After a Month | Shalom World News Against all odds, hope has emerged from the ruins of Venezuela. Thirty days after the devastating twin earthquakes reduced entire neighborhoods to rubble, rescue teams accomplished what many believed was impossible. In an extraordinary operation described by witnesses, rescuers, and grieving families as nothing short of a miracle from God, four survivors were pulled alive from the collapsed OPP Caribe buildings in Caraballeda, La Guaira—a woman, her two children, and a young man who had endured nearly a month trapped beneath the debris. Working in relentless heat and under dangerous conditions, local emergency crews, supported by international rescue teams, refused to abandon the search. Their perseverance was rewarded when signs of life were detected beneath the wreckage. As the survivors were carefully brought to safety, paramedics rushed to stabilize them, treating severe dehydration and exhaustion …Ọzọ
Bishop Hugh Gilbert of Aberdeen, Scotland, declared Fr. Michael Mary Sim, 72, Superior of the Transalpine Redemptorists, excommunicated on July 25. After publicly embracing sedevacantism in May, he was found guilty of schism. Although the consecration as Sedevacantist bishop took place on the same day the diocesan judgment was published, Bishop Gilbert clarified that the canonical trial had been completed before the ceremony and therefore did not include the new offense in its verdict. Bishop Gilbert stated that Fr. Michael Mary was found guilty on multiple ecclesiastical charges, the most serious being schism: "As a result, he is declared to be excommunicated, dismissed from ecclesiastical office, and prohibited from the celebration of Mass or the other sacraments." The diocese said the Vatican's competent dicasteries had been informed throughout the process. Bishop Gilbert also noted that the penalties could be lifted should Fr. Michael Mary sincerely repent and seek reconciliation …Ọzọ

Young Catholics in Brazil are expressing a desire for deeper faith formation, greater emphasis on holiness, and well-celebrated liturgy, while also voicing frustration with what they see as an excessive focus on sociopolitical issues in the Church, according to a national survey presented to the Brazilian Bishops' Conference (CNBB). The 2025 survey, conducted by the CNBB's Episcopal Commission for Youth with academic partners, gathered responses from more than 11,000 Catholics aged 12 to 29 across Brazil.

He is particularly critical of the community's leader at the time, Father Ramón Angles, whom he portrays as an authoritarian priest with extremist ideological views. Massett accuses him of fostering a culture of intimidation, public humiliation, and fear. Later in the article, he discusses abuse allegations against Angles, citing investigations by the Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI), testimonies from former students, and the case of an alleged victim who later died by suicide. At the same time, the article notes that Angles, through his attorney, has categorically denied all allegations.
