“It’s very clear to me that there was more unity in the Church when we were living under Summorum Pontificum than we are now under Traditionis Custodes.” Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone of San Francisco made the remarks in an interview with TribuneChretienne.com on October 8. He said that the radical liturgical changes following Vatican II had damaged, and in some cases even destroyed, Catholics’ faith. Cordileone also pointed to a generational reversal: Young Catholics increasingly seek to recover tradition, while older generations remain attached to the changes introduced in their youth. What still feels new to the Vatican II generation, he observed, looks like a bygone era to young Catholics, who are searching for something timeless.
Archbishop Cordileone of San Francisco: "There was more unity in the Church when we were living under Summorum Pontificum than we are now under Traditionis Custodes."
1. The Church has unity. Not "more or less" but unity (of Faith and worship) as the basis/basic characteristics. If there is no such unity, well, you should search for the Church in another place. 2. If he said: It’s very clear to me that there was the greater fiction of unity between the Church and the neo-modernist Revolution when we were living under Summorum Pontificum than we are now under Traditionis Custodes, I would say: true indeed but he prefers to present the false description/diagnosis. 3. No Catholic is "under Traditionis Custodes" as that tyrannical document is null and void. Only "dumb dogs" prophesized by Isaias (Is 56) - sleeping and loving dreams - are under it.
Leo XIV appoints religious sister – lobbying for female ordinations – to senior leadership position in the Roman Curia. On October 8, Pope Leo XIV appointed Sister Mary Teresa Barron as Adjunct Secretary of the Vatican’s Dicastery for Evangelization and President of the Pontifical Mission Societies. The Pontifical Mission Societies is a global network supporting missionary activity, particularly in Africa, Asia, Oceania and parts of Latin America. Born in Ireland, Sr. Mary became a member of the Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Apostles. The missionary congregation was founded in Lyon, France, in 1876 for evangelization, particularly in Africa. “Some women sense a call to priesthood” At a Vatican press conference during the Synod on Synodality in 2024, Sister Barron argued for the ordination of women: “Is the Spirit calling women? Because some women do sense a call to priesthood or diaconate.” Sister Barron believes that “we have to look at broader than just can or can we not …ఇంకా

"It is impossible for any created good to constitute man's happiness. For happiness is the perfect good, which lulls the appetite altogether; else it would not be the last end, if something yet remained to be desired. Now the object of the will, i.e. of man's appetite, is the universal good; just as the object of the intellect is the universal true. Hence it is evident that naught can lull man's will, save the universal good. This is to be found, not in any creature, but in God alone; because every creature has goodness by participation. Wherefore God alone can satisfy the will of man, according to the words of Ps. 102:5: "Who satisfieth thy desire with good things." Therefore God alone constitutes man's happiness." — St. Thomas Aquinas

Papal Infallibility Does Not Mean Papal Perfection Papal infallibility does not mean the pope is perfect or immune to error. It only applies to formal proclamations of dogma regarding faith and morals, made with the intention of teaching the entire church. While the pope is a sinner and can make mistakes, the grace of the papacy allows him to speak infallibly when necessary. Fr.

Here’s where we’ve arrived. In the presence of the Holy Father, during an event dedicated to the nefarious document *Amoris Laetitia* — of the now-deceased Argentine pope (though the disastrous effects of his pontificate still persist) — a nun suggests that Jesus’ initial approach toward the Samaritan woman was... a flirt. “A theory elaborated by one of my Dominican confreres.” The blasphemous nun, Sister Helen Alford, O.P., is the president of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences.
At the Vatican’s Amoris Laetitia anniversary event, Sr. Helen Alford, O.P., approvingly presented a fellow Dominican’s “provocative” description of Jesus’ encounter with the Samaritan woman as beginning with a “flirt” — adding that “the ambiguity persists” before Christ confronts her with the truth.
“It felt like a nightmare.” Canadian Cardinal Marc Ouellet has spoken about the four-year ordeal of being accused of sexual assault, after a Quebec court ruled in his favor in a defamation case and found the allegations against him unfounded. Speaking to Rome Reports on October 7, Ouellet said: “It felt like a nightmare, a very difficult and costly experience, because I had to hire lawyers to defend myself, and this had an impact on my reputation, my moral authority, my health, and many other things.” “I think that today, with all the cases that have been publicized, there's actually a presumption of guilt, and so I felt like I was under this cloud of suspicion and doubt.” “I'm afraid the damage can't really be undone.”

Leo XIV sounds decentralizing: “new paths” for local Churches. At yesterday’s meeting on Amoris Laetitia, Pope Leo XIV spoke of “the (alleged) fruits that Amoris Laetitia has borne in our local Churches.” And then: “It will also help the local Churches to recognize new paths and to involve all the baptized more deeply in the Church’s synodal journey.”
Pope Leo XIV calls on the Church to gather the “fruits” of 10 years of Amoris Laetitia — saying they should nourish the whole Church and help local Churches “recognize new paths.”

The Decree of Prohibitions on the St. Benedict Center in New Hampshire, USA confuses what is invisible as being visible, this is illegal in New Hampshire?
