Cardinal Marx Frustrated by Online Success of Critics of Synodal Path

Cardinal Reinhard Marx of Munich has criticized what he describes as a coordinated campaign on social media against the German Synod, he told Herder Korrespondenz.
He was frustrated about “the narrative” portraying the German Synodal as schismatic and that it gained such strong influence.
“This is also a phenomenon of social media, especially among the more reactionary camp,” Cardinal Marx said. “They are very well coordinated in their efforts, particularly in the United States. This applies to politics, and it also applies to the Church. The other side isn’t as active there. I have repeatedly pointed out to both Francis and Leo XIV that propaganda is taking place.”
And: “In terms of communication, it certainly would have been better to talk to one another more. But perhaps we - myself included - should have sought dialogue earlier. I admit, however, that I was worried we wouldn’t have made any progress then. Now the task is to effectively integrate our Synodal Path with the universal …Ibindi

@chris griffin The One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church has blessed and approved the apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima. I disagree it is "fair and just," "all Catholics should ignore Fatima." Our Lady of Fatima said "only I can help you." If we had done what Our Lady of Fatima asked there would be no abortion today plain and simple. I think your position in opposition to Our Lady of Fatima only continues the "Errors of Russia," and abortion is one of those "Errors." God bless you!

The Vatican altered the official Italian transcript of Pope Leo XIV’s 23 April flight remarks, removing the word "infamous". He had used it while discussing homosexual "blessings" in the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising and describing Pope Francis’ phrase tutti, tutti, tutti as infamous, famous, well known.

Bishop Schneider praised this archbishop's speech against concelebration at Vatican II - LifeSite

(
LifeSiteNews) — A Dominican archbishop’s opposition to non-traditional ideas of how priests should concelebrate Mass, a topic debated at the Second Vatican Council, is making the rounds online.
Bishop Athanasius Schneider, in his 2022 book The Catholic Mass, referred to a speech by Archbishop Paul-Pierre Philippe, OP as “one of the most doctrinally and liturgically sound contributions during the conciliar debate on concelebration.”
“The ritual form of Eucharistic concelebration introduced after the Second Vatican Council, and its practice in the life of the Church today, is certainly contrary to the entire tradition of both the Eastern and Western Church,” Schneider wrote.
“The vision of the Council Fathers corresponded to the constant practice of the Church, where the concelebration of the Eucharist was done according to hierarchical order, that is, the cardinals and bishops with the pope and the priests with the bishop …

Pagliarani Criticizes Cardinals Müller, Sarah over FSSPX Consecrations - Thanks Bishops Schneider, Strickland

The Superior of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX), Father Davide Pagliarani, commented on the July 1 episcopal consecrations in an in-house interview with LaPorteLatine.org. Key lines.
- The episcopal consecrations… are not a rebellion, but the response to a cruel necessity.
- Cardinals Gerhard Müller, Robert Sarah, and other bishops suffer from a typically modern malaise: an inability to reconcile the demands of faith with those of canon law, leading to a kind of paralyzing dichotomy.
- The FSSPX holds that these principles must not simply be juxtaposed, but hierarchized - one subordinated to the other.
- The ‘rigorous’ canonists still consider the FSSPX schismatic — this is how one must understand the statements of Cardinal Raymond Leo Burke.
- Bishop Athanasius Schneider has shown great courage and freedom of speech… his support will go down in history.
- I thank Bishop Joseph Strickland for his message full of strength, clarity, and courage.
- Bishop Vitus Huonder,…Ibindi

Actual Grace in Conversion | The Fatima Center

Editor’s Note: An excellent way to summarize the Message of Fatima is that Our Lady is calling all of us to conversion, reparation, and consecration. Our most recent Issue of The Fatima Crusader (#136, Fall 2025) focused on how to Live the Message of Fatima by emphasizing important Catholic practices along the lines of these three themes. The Fatima Center also recently posted a video by Fr. Karl Stehlin detailing the connection between these themes, the Message of Fatima, and the lives of the three little shepherds to whom Our Lady appeared. Watch this video, Living the Message of Fatima Today: Why and How, or listen to the audio only podcast. We also invite you to read a short excerpt from Frere Michel’s The Whole Truth About Fatima which shows how Fatima Is a Call to Conversion.

Detroit Parish That Drew Crowds With Latin Mass Closed

A Detroit parish that had previously been revitalised by the Mass in the Roman rite has now closed, reports CatholicCulture.org on April 21.
St Josaphat in Detroit, Michigan, began offering the Roman Rite in 2004 when the parish was in full decline.
This liturgy led to a rapid increase in attendance, particularly among younger Catholics.
However, in 2012, tensions developed within the parish of St. Josaphat between Novus Ordo and Roman Rite parishioners. This followed the appointment of a new parish priest.
Some older members expressed concerns about the level of involvement and financial contribution of the younger group. However, according to accounts from those involved, the Latin Mass community contributed approximately two-thirds of parish revenue. The dispute continued for several years.
Finally, the parish was merged. Today, it is effectively closed, with no regular Eucharists.
This is the story of a group of Catholics in a dying parish who, when presented with an unexpected …Ibindi

A dying Novus Ordo parish is given a Latin Mass, which naturally explodes in popularity. A few influential Novus parishioners get jealous, make up bogus accusations, and run the trads out of town. Now the parish is basically closed, and they call it a success. Sound familiar? 🤡

la verdad prevalece

This homosexual, Marxist, and Masonic sect—which worships false gods—hates the Traditional Holy Mass, because said Mass was declared the Official Mass of the Church until the end of time. Conversely, the *Novus Ordo* Mass permits the changes that modernist heretics—infiltrated within the Second Vatican Council—introduced under the pretext of ecumenism; an ecumenism that promotes neither the conversion of Jews who reject their Messiah, nor that of idolatrous Muslims and followers of other false religions, but rather a Masonic fraternity in which polytheism is promoted. And a false peace with those who reject the Prince of Peace. A false UNITY wherein false gods are equated with the Most Holy Trinity (such as the false god Allah), and wherein Christ is not considered necessary as Redeemer. For this reason, no effort is made to ensure that idolaters convert, believe in the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and are baptized. The synodal sect promotes the notion that Christ is no longer necessary …Ibindi

Leo XIV’s Evasive Response to Marx’s Homosexual Blessings – No Sanctions

On the return flight to Rome today, Pope Leo XIV was asked about the decision of Cardinal Reinhard Marx of Munich, Germany, to enforce "blessings" for homosexual couples in his archdiocese. Leo XIV replied:
"First of all, I think it’s very important to understand that the unity or division of the Church should not revolve around sexual matters. We tend to think that when the Church is talking about morality, that the only issue of morality is sexual. And in reality, I believe there are much greater, more important issues, such as justice, equality, freedom of men and women, freedom of religion, that would all take priority before that particular issue. The Holy See has already spoken to the German bishops.
The Holy See has made it clear that we do not agree with the formalized blessing of couples, in this case, homosexual couples, as you asked, or couples in irregular situations, beyond what was specifically, if you will, allowed for by Pope Francis in saying all people receive blessings. …Ibindi

The EU Admits the World Runs on Fossil Fuels — While Deliberately Destroying Its Own – Allah's Willing Executioners

The European Union’s energy policy has reached a level of ideological self-harm that even its harshest critics could scarcely have imagined.
The global economy continues to run
overwhelmingly on fossil fuels. Transportation, electricity generation, heavy industry, heating, and plastics production all depend on them.
The European Commission, in a moment of geopolitical stress, finally acknowledged this truth. When tensions rise in critical chokepoints such as the Strait of Hormuz, Brussels joins international calls to keep energy flows open, implicitly conceding that modern civilization cannot function without reliable hydrocarbon supplies.
On March 19, 2026, the European Council, which consists of the heads of the 27 European Union nations, issued a statement, saying:
“The European Council calls for de-escalation and maximum restraint… [and] for a moratorium on strikes against energy and water facilities…. The European Council also welcomes the increased efforts announced by Member …

The worst thing for the Vatican is that nobody reads the Vatican media anymore. Quotations are useless anyway.

In the first instalment of this exclusive investigation, Silere non possum brings to light a system of connections, pressures and intimidation which, over the years, has sought to strike at our newspaper in order to delegitimise and silence it. At the heart of the inquiry are journalists and those who falsely flaunt credentials, apparatuses of power, murky circles and a network of mutual protection which, as is amply documented, always operates in the same manner: going after those who practise free journalism and drag their dirty secrets into the open. You will find no gossip, innuendo or hearsay here, unlike in certain psycho-blogs and in newspapers propped up by power elites. You will find audio recordings, documents, images, chat logs and facts. This first instalment pieces together some of the names and methods of a system which, rather than pursuing the truth, seeks to defend itself and crush anyone who refuses to bow.

Seventeen US bishops Attended Secret Pro-Homosex Indoctrination Gatherings

Since 2023, the pro-homosex group New Ways Ministry has held three two-day meetings with US bishops to promote homosexualism, reports NCR Online (22 April).
The gatherings took place at Georgetown University, St. Louis University, and the Siena Retreat Centre in Racine, Wisconsin. Seventeen bishops attended these programmes, with many being present at more than one conference.
The meetings were held under the 'Chatham House Rule', which permits the sharing of information and topics discussed at the meeting. However, the names of attendees remain confidential unless a participant explicitly permits their participation or comments to be shared.
Creating a pro-homosexual Church
The meetings were intended for bishops who were willing "to create a more welcoming church".
Bishops listened to emotional stories from gay priests, lesbian nuns, and transvestites.
After one meeting, Archbishop Jeffrey Grob of Milwaukee said, "Dialogue and listening are essential to learning and understanding. Once …Ibindi

SHOCKING: Mother Miriam Drops Truth Bombs on the Pope & Vatican! “False prophets” now have an official prayer room inside the Vatican Library — so Muslims can pray to their false god on sacred ground. Mother Miriam is speaking out with righteous fire: This is a grave scandal and betrayal of the Catholic Faith. How on earth do you allow this inside the heart of the Church?! Christ is King. The First Commandment still matters. You don’t honor the true Faith by giving equal space to falsehood. Wake up, Catholics. This interfaith “openness” is going too far.

Old Age: Decrepitude or Glory? Saint Mary Euphrasia Pelletier

Ambiences, Customs and Civilizations
Catolicismo, Campos (Rio de Janeiro), no. 23 – November 1952
by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira
How the modern world, caught up in sensuality, deceives itself when it sees only decadence in aging. When one knows how to esteem the spirit more highly than the body, growing old is to grow into what is most noble, the soul.
Although aging does entail bodily decadence, this is only the material element in the human person. The body may indeed lose its beauty and its vigor, but it may enrich itself with the translucence of a soul that knew how to develop and grow along the course of life. This translucence constitutes the highest beauty the human face may acquire.

How Iran Committed Suicide › American Greatness

How does the supposedly most fearsome regime in the violent Middle East now find itself on the verge of an utter economic and military collapse?
Iran’s half-century-long deadly terrorist reputation peaked with the October 7, 2023, massacre in Israel that it helped fund and coordinate.
Iran’s terrorist ambitions of running the Middle East had accelerated after witnessing Joe Biden’s cognitive decline and his administration’s distancing itself from Israel. Biden’s humiliation by a series of Chinese slights and the Russian invasion of Ukraine further eroded American deterrence. European appeasement was another force multiplier of Iranian hubris.
The theocracy apparently assumed that its supposed “ring of fire” terrorist proxies—in Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Gaza, and Yemen—could lethally squeeze Israel, now reeling from the greatest single-day loss of Jewish life since the Holocaust.
The theocrats further conjectured that, like most incumbent presidents, Biden would be reelected and continue …
