02/16/2026 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. The WEF’s “prophet”, Yuval Harari, is propagating the Homo Deus, the human being optimized by transhumanism. Prof. Paul Cullen explains where these aspirations for optimization come from and why this has never worked before and never will. Source. Professor Cullen has excellently illustrated our understanding of biology by comparing living and dead cells. Science cannot explain the difference. Both living and dead cells consist of the same matter and have the same structure, but there is something that science, which relies solely on the study of matter, cannot recognize. How deceptive is the belief in the power of science and the infinite possibilities of technological development! Advances in technological development are often useful and bring about positive changes. Many inventions make our lives easier. Cars, washing machines, and other devices offer us more travel options or save our hands, if we think back to the recent past when the …
Brothers and sisters, Jesus teaches us that true righteousness consists in love and that, within every precept of the Law, we must learn to identify a call to love. Indeed, it is not sufficient to refrain from killing a person physically if one then kills with words and undermines the dignity of the other (cf. Mt 5:21-22). Similarly, it is not enough to be technically faithful to one’s spouse and not commit adultery if the relationship lacks mutual tenderness, listening, respect, care for the other and shared goals The Gospel offers us this valuable teaching: minimal righteousness is not enough; great love is needed. Pope Leo XIV, ANGELUS 15/2/2026
Pope Leo XIV appointed today the Cabo Verde born Bishop Teodoro Mendes Tavares, 62, of Ponta de Pedras, Brazil, as Bishop of Santiago de Cabo Verde.

He was ordained a priest on 11 July 1993 and was sent as a missionary to Brazil in 1994, to the Prelacy of Tefé, in the Amazonas region.

Capuchin Priest Who Fought Racism on Way to Canonization "Born in Canada, Fr. Stephen Eckert joined the Capuchin order, was ordained in 1896 and sent to New York for his first assignment. While there he fell in love with African Americans and felt a desire to minister to their spiritual needs, something that was rarely heard of in America at the time. This calling was further cemented after a visit to the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament in Philadelphia, a religious community founded by St. Katherine Drexel, who served various African American communities. He was convinced that God was calling him to this apostolate and wrote to his superior in 1903. “I humbly ask you for the privilege of devoting my life to missionary work alone, in conformity with God’s holy will. I must point out that since last year I have been thinking of going south to work with the Blacks; so if you think that this might redound to the greater glory of God, I would be glad to do so…” His dream wasn’t fulfilled …More

Despite Epstein’s Toxicity, Steve Bannon Stood by Him, Texts Indicate Mr. Bannon, a MAGA podcaster, developed a seemingly chummy relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, who was accused of sex trafficking. He said it was in the name of getting Mr. Epstein to open up. nytimes.com/…2/16/us/politics/jeffrey-epstein- … Midafternoon in late June 2019, Stephen K. Bannon sent Jeffrey Epstein an excited series of texts. “Dude!!!!!” he wrote. “Is this real Tell me this is real.” Mr. Epstein had just texted him a headline from The Miami Herald. It reported that victims of Mr. Epstein’s sexual abuse had lost a court battle to nullify a decade-old agreement that protected him from prosecution for those crimes.

Mr. Bannon recommended which lawyers to hire — his own — when to lie low and when he …More
Major Release of Epstein Documents Contains Mentions of Trump and Mar-a-Lago Subpoenas Most appearances of President Trump’s name in the set of files just released by the Justice Department came from news reports and other documents. But some deal directly with the relationship between the one-time friends. Published Dec. 23, 2025Updated Jan. 30, 2026 nytimes.com/live/2025/12/23/us/epstein-files-trump Pro-Trump influencers have always had a lot to say about the Jeffrey Epstein files. Several called for their release before President Trump was re-elected, certain that the files would expose a cabal of Democrats who had palled around with Mr. Epstein even though he had been exposed as a convicted sex offender. And several criticized Mr. Trump himself this year after he repeatedly sought to block the files’ release, referring to them as a “Democratic hoax.” But many of them were conspicuously quiet on Tuesday, when the Justice Department released a batch of materials that contained hundreds …More
