I’ve been meaning to write about this for some time, and better late than never. I encourage NLM readers to check out the initiative called the “Latin Mass Project,” which has a website as beautiful as its subject deserves. Their flagship publication, the first of many to come, is Ad Altare Dei: Pew Edition. This book contains the full texts of the Mass in Latin and English, explanations of those parts of the Mass which vary throughout the year, and clearly-marked rubrics. There are also boxes containing commentary on the gestures, prayers, and objects found within the Mass. The first edition having sold out, a second edition was prepared with several improvements: gold foil cover detail, gilded edges, sturdier hardcover binding, and a ribbon, among other touches. Each page features full-color photos taken at Old St. Patrick Oratory, the Institute’s apostolate in Kansas City, MO. Acclaimed by children and adults alike, this book is intended to be a beautiful, durable, and practical …

Worth noting this has always been the Catholic view Vatican in 1985: "The existence of the State of Israel and its political options should be envisaged not in a perspective which is in itself religious, but in their reference to the common principles of international law."
The Patriarchs and Heads of the Churches in Jerusalem denounce “Christian Zionism” as a harmful ideology. In a joint statement on January 17 (below), they write: “Recent activities undertaken by local individuals who advance damaging ideologies, such as Christian Zionism, mislead the public, sow confusion, and harm the unity of our flock. These undertakings have found favor among certain political actors in Israel and beyond who seek to push a political agenda which may harm the Christian presence in the Holy Land and the wider Middle East.” The Patriarchs and Heads of Churches further note with concern that these individuals have welcomed at official levels both locally and internationally. #newsKcvomeyroj

Gary D. Barnett | Garydbarnett.com “The urge to save humanity is almost always a false front for the urge to rule.”~H. L. Mencken In May of 2025, the governor of the state of Virginia signed into ‘law’ the bill that imposes major restrictions on social media use by minors, in this case those under 16 years of age. The newest version of this bill took effect on January 1st, 2026, and limits any minor under the age of 16 to one hour of screen time. There can be exceptions granted, but the bill is targeted toward social media operators, and requires commercial methods be used for age verification. The state ‘claims’ that this of course is meant to “protect the children,” (minors) but that is just pure hogwash, as this is strictly a method to advance additional control measures. Currently, there are 8 states that have passed legislation to block screen time for minors, but 25 want to implement these bans currently. I am not endorsing that kids should be on phones and devices non-…
1 Samuel 15:16-23 “Because you have rejected the word of the Lord, the Lord in turn has rejected you as king!” It is necessary to understand that it is Saul who is not in harmony with God. It is Saul who rejects God. God is simply observing this. The only word of God is Love, joy, and peace. Mark 2:18-22 “Can the wedding guests fast while the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.” When is the Bridegroom with us? When is God with us? Right now. Biblical texts: NAB-RE Normand Thomas.

Benedict XVI warned Cardinal Marx in 2021 that Germany's Synodal Way “will do harm and end badly if it is not stopped.” Marx apparently ignored the warning.

"We excommunicate and anathematise every heresy raising itself up against this holy, orthodox and catholic faith which we have expounded above. We condemn all heretics, whatever names they may go under [...] Moreover, we determine to subject to excommunication believers who receive, defend or support heretics."

January 19th - Saint of the Day: Saints Marius, Martha, Audifax, and Abachum, Martyrs oFur names. One decision. Zero compromise. Saints Marius, Martha, Audifax, and Abachum (Abaco) are remembered on January 19 as Roman martyrs who refused to bow to idols when the empire demanded it. This is not soft, aesthetic Christianity. This is faith with a spine. Here is the wild part: Catholic tradition remembers them for showing mercy when mercy could get you killed. They cared for persecuted Christians and honored the bodies of martyrs, even when doing the right thing made them a target. And their story hits even harder because the Church is honest about what is known and what is tradition. The exact persecution era is debated, but the core is crystal clear: they chose Jesus over survival. They did not negotiate with lies. They did not trade truth for comfort. They stayed faithful as a household. If faith feels pressured to stay quiet, their witness is a wake-up call. Holiness is not vibes. …More
"Science only ever depends on the data of reality. Now, no one can prejudge what the actual data of reality are, nor what these data will be in the future. Theories must be based on these data, and can therefore legitimately formulate both positive and negative hypotheses regarding the object under consideration, as well as analogous hypotheses relating to its ultimate nature. Nothing justifies a prohibition or an abstention in this matter. Nothing, except an ideological bias, a dogmatic position which have no place in science or scientific research. It is therefore perfectly legitimate and perfectly possible, depending on the available data, to formulate positive or negative theories relating, for example, to the existence of God, to a manifestation of divine order, to Marian apparitions or to a supposed revelation, while remaining within the scientific field. This is what neither religious totalitarians, nor the proponents of French-style secularism, nor researchers who refrain from …More
