Putin can't possible fall for this. No less after Rubio said, We are NOT intermediators. We are ON the side of Ukraine. He has too much hope in him for peace and in human beings who don't act nor talk like human beings.
Speaking to journalists earlier on Wednesday, Rubio expressed his hope that the Russian president would arrive for the summit. “We hope that’s an invitation he’ll accept. There’s an opportunity in December if that happens.” That must be one of his sick jokes again. Except it's not funny at all.
Cardinal Mario Grech has said the Church is “synodal by nature” — “there is room for everyone” but immediately added that it remains hierarchical by nature. Asked about Germany’s still-pending Synodal Conference, His Eminence declined to comment and referred the matter to the Dicastery for Bishops. The 2028 ecclesial assembly, he added, is not a continuation of the 2021–24 Synod.
“I want to bring everybody to Christ — especially… Jews.” 'Conservative' Bishop Robert Barron of Winona-Rochester discussed the salvation of non-Christians in an interview with EWTN’s Raymond Arroyo following the release of a new Vatican document on interreligious dialogue. Barron said the covenant with Israel “is fulfilled in Christ,” rejecting the idea of two parallel paths of salvation. “I want to bring everybody to Christ,” Barron said, adding, “especially… Jews.” The Church’s purpose is “always and everywhere to everybody” to proclaim Jesus Christ as Savior, he said. Asked how much doctrinal weight Catholics should give the Vatican II document Nostra Aetate, Barron replied that “there are elements in it that really belong to the doctrine of the Church,” including human dignity and Christianity’s grounding in the revelation given to Israel.

How can two leaders be so different? (short video 49 seconds. English) "If we are friends, we are friends for a long time," Vladimir Putin declared in his address to the participants of the International Youth Festival. He stated that Russia advocates for "people to remain people," and for their destiny not to be determined by citizenship, status, origin, or "a wallet stuffed with money." The president also emphasized the right of every nation to independently choose its own path of development and called on young people to work together to change the world. «Чтобы человек оставался человеком»: Путин — о дружбе, справедливости и мире без власти кошелька Now listen to Trump talking to children.

Italian cardinal criticises Meloni over envisioned limits on Muslim pupils: “No one should feel excluded”. Italy’s debate over immigration, Islam and integration has reached the classroom. Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni wants a binding 30% ceiling on [mainly Muslim] pupils who do not adequately speak Italian. Against that move, Cardinal Matteo Zuppi of Bologna, president of the Italian Bishops’ Conference, has stressed that schools “must be inclusive” and should be places where “no one feels excluded.”

They try to control us with their language tricks - inclusion. They invade our countries with people who are taught up to hate us, who, in fact have often been taught to kill us, who don't in any way wish to join our societies as respectful citizens, then tell us we are bad for not falling for their wicked plan.
Oh please! Just stop with that stupid "exlusion" language! Guess what cardinal: satan is also excluded from a beatific vision! Do you feel bad about that?

Theological Evaluation of the SSPX Profession of Faith [onepeterfive] By Dr. John Joy, STD On June 24, 2026, the Society of St. Pius X (SSPX) published a profession of faith for the stated purpose of enlightening souls in the face of modern errors but also (as seems evident) to provide a rationale for their intended acts of episcopal consecration, which took place without papal mandate on July 1, 2026. As a consequence of these consecrations, the bishops involved were declared excommunicated by Decree of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith (Prot. N. 99/2009), which also warned clerics and lay faithful not to adhere to the schism of the SSPX lest they too incur excommunication. The same Dicastery, in its Guidelines for the Reconciliation of Adherents of the SSPX (2 July 2026), suggests that lay faithful “who habitually participate in celebrations of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X and formally share its doctrinal positions” may be subject to excommunication, whereas “lay …More

2,200 people joined Switzerland’s March for Life in Zurich on Saturday under the banner “Together for Life”. Around 200 masked counter-demonstrators, some on bicycles, tried repeatedly to block the route, overturning containers and setting off firecrackers. Police issued orders to disperse before deploying water cannons and rubber shots (!). Bottles were thrown at officers and two people were provisionally arrested. The march has been kept outside central Zurich for years, a restriction organisers say amounts to unequal treatment.

A 2026 study found an interesting link between siblings and teen mental health. Researchers looked at data from 16,725 teenagers in rural China from 2010 to 2022. Teens with more siblings were less likely to show signs of depression, with an even stronger effect among younger teens. Each additional sibling was linked to a 1.7–1.8 percentage-point lower probability of depression.
Use God’s Gifts For His Glory The gospel reading emphasizes the importance of using the talents God has given us for His glory and the building of His kingdom. We should focus on our motives, ensuring we are serving God and others, rather than seeking personal gain. Regardless of past mistakes, we should strive to use our talents to the best of our ability, seeking God’s guidance on how to serve Him most effectively. Fr.
