“Plateau de Fromages”

– Folha de S. Paulo, August 27, 1969 -
by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira
A few years ago, international communism stood as a unified doctrinal, cultural, and political force.
Later, this monolith began to break apart. In Europe, the Yugoslav and Albanian divisions appeared. In Asia, a large rift formed with China. This caused communist circles worldwide to split into two opposing factions: pro-Russian and pro-Chinese. The 1968 Marcusian revolution in Paris and the Czechoslovak unrest highlighted the difference between liberal and anarchic neo-communism and the fiercely authoritarian Soviet communism.
While all this was happening outside Russia, the monolithic nature of communism also underwent significant changes within the country. Khrushchev-era “thawed” communists appeared alongside traditional Stalinists. Then emerged post-Khrushchev communists, a seemingly mixed blend of Khrushchevism and Stalinism. Post-Khrushchev factions further split into doves and hawks. Ultimately, according to …More

The Russian Navy Deterred Estonia From Boarding Its “Shadow Fleet”

Escort missions to India and China might also deter the US and the UK from doing the same outside the Baltic, but even so, they might encourage Ukraine to ramp up drone attacks in that event.
Commander of the Estonian Navy Ivo Vark told
Reuters that Estonia won’t board vessels that are part of Russia’s “shadow fleet” anymore since “The risk of military escalation is just too ⁠high.” He elaborated that “The Russian military presence here in the Gulf of Finland has become much, much more ‌evident” due to new permanent Russian naval patrols but “in the Atlantic Ocean and also the North Sea there’s very little Russian presence.” Its vessels are thus more likely to be boarded there than in the Baltic.
The aforementioned patrols are the result of Chairman of the Naval Board Nikolai Patrushev’s efforts, which he spoke about in an interview in mid-February that was analyzed here at the time. Reuters also reported that “Reuters reporters aboard an Estonian navy vessel in the Gulf of …

Saint Pierre Gonzalez, dit saint Elme, Dominicain (1190-1246)
Pierre Gonzalez naquit, l’an 1190, dans la ville d’Astorga, en Espagne, d’une famille distinguée. Son oncle, évêque de Palencia, charmé de ses talents, le pourvut d’un canonicat et le fit ensuite nommer doyen du Chapitre de sa cathédrale. Le jour de sa prise de possession, Gonzalez, naturellement vaniteux, voulut traverser la ville sur un cheval superbement paré. C’est là que la Providence l’attendait: sa vanité se repaissait des applaudissements de la foule, quand le cheval se cabra, renversant dans la boue l’orgueilleux cavalier, au milieu des huées de la populace. Cette humiliation fut un coup de la grâce. Pierre se releva tout confus, et dit à haute voix: « Puisque le monde se moque de moi, je me moquerai de lui à mon tour. » Il tint parole. Dans la solitude …

Saint Hunna | The Holy Washerwoman | A Life of Radical Humility | Feast Day April 15th
Saint Hunna lived in the Alsace region of modern-day France. Though she was a noblewoman, she chose to serve the poor in a very simple and practical way: 👉 she washed their clothes. Because of this, she became known as the “Holy Washerwoman.” She is remembered for: Her radical humility despite her high status Her love expressed through simple acts of service Her care for the poor and forgotten Saint Hunna reminds us that holiness is not about status or recognition… 👉 it’s about love lived out in everyday actions. 🙏 Saint Hunna, pray for us. 🌿 7th-century noblewoman 🧺 Patron of laundresses and humble service 💛 Witness of hidden charity

Sainte Hune - le 15 avril
Religieuse (+ v. 600)

Née au VIème siècle de notre ère, décédée presque centenaire vers l'an 600. Nous avons à notre disposition peu d'éléments vérifiés de la vie de sainte Hune. Nous savons qu'apparentée à un roi de Bourgogne de l'époque mérovingienne, elle fut sans doute l'épouse contrainte et malheureuse d'un seigneur franc.
Enfant mal aimée d'une famille désunie, Hune fut reléguée aux cuisines avec les domestiques du château de la Hunière, tandis que son père guerroyait au loin aux côtés de son roi et que sa mère se livrait aux caresses de ses nombreux amants. L'amour sincère et l'affection que lui portaient les servantes, l'amitié des lavandières qu'elle accompagnait dans leur travail, permirent à la fillette de vivre une enfance simple mais heureuse.
Cette vie au contact de gens pauvres, sans culture, illettrés aux manières frustes restés païens, n'empêcha pas la jeune Hune d'acquérir un caractère fort, une vive foi chrétienne que ses …More

Tucho: "Dishonest to Claim that Leo XIV Erases Francis"

Leo XIV has repeatedly stressed continuing Francis’s teaching, Cardinal Tucho Fernández told IlGiornale.it on 13 April.
He gives examples: At the January consistory, Leo XIV asked the cardinals to reread Evangelii Gaudium, and to reflect on its application again. Furthermore, Leo XIV has convened the presidents of the episcopal conferences to resume the reception of Amoris Laetitia.
"These are signs that help us understand that Francis is not gone."
Tucho’s view is that “it is dishonest to claim that Pope Leo intends to undo the work of Francis’s pontificate.”
"There are many points of common ground between Leo XIV and Francis; more than opposition, one should see complementarity."
Additionally, Tucho recalled that when Francis first called him as Pope, he said, “I am Bergoglio.”

The continued retention of Kissy himself as the Prefect of the Holy Office is the actual and best empirical proof of the veracity of this statement by him. Leo walks in Francis’ shoes.

Cardinal Müller: “Israel’s Right to Exist Must Never Be Called into Question”

As a political, economic, technological, and military superpower, the United States bears a distinctive responsibility to contain dangerous regimes and dictatorships that pose a grave threat to the world. This position was articulated by Cardinal Gerhard Müller on Kath.net on 14 April.
He continues: “In light of present circumstances, the brutal crimes committed against one’s own people and against other nations must be confronted - not only through economic sanctions, but, where necessary, by military means.”
Cardinal Müller even draws a parallel with the Nazis: “The policy of appeasement toward Adolf Hitler proved catastrophic and exacted a devastating toll in World War II.”
Turning to Iran, Müller states: “The Iranian regime must be unequivocally denounced worldwide as a perversion of religion - religion which is ordered toward the worship of God and must never, in any form, be exploited to justify killing of innocent people.”
He envisions a just peace as one in which “the …More

A baby at 32 weeks in the womb was caught smiling the moment she heard her dad’s voice during a routine ultrasound. The scan showed the unborn girl breaking into a clear smile as soon as her father started speaking. By this stage of pregnancy, babies can hear sounds from outside the womb and often recognize their parents’ voices.

On April 12, the Armenian Diocese of Artsakh reported the destruction of Saint James Church in Stepanakert following Azerbaijan’s takeover of the region in 2023. The diocese called it part of a “cultural genocide,” citing ongoing attacks on Armenian Christian heritage.

Azerbaijani authorities have destroyed Saint Hakob Church in Stepanakert, Nagorno Karabakh, marking another escalation in what observers describe as a systematic campaign against Armenian cultural and spiritual heritage in Artsakh.
Saint Hakob Church was a relatively modern but deeply symbolic religious site. Its foundation was laid in September 2005, and construction was completed in early 2007. The church was built with the support of Armenian-American benefactor Nerses Yepremyan in memory of his late son, Hakob Yepremyan.

BAIER: Do you think that when the president says it's 'hurting [Pope Leo] very badly, catering to the radical left? It's hurting the Catholic Church.' You agree with the president there?
JD VANCE: "I certainly think that in some cases, it would be best for the Vatican to stick to matters of morality, to stick to matters of what's going on in the Catholic Church and let the president United States stick to dictating American public policy."

"But from that very hour in which, with God's help, he can overcome his selfhood—that is to say when he is so detached from himself that he is able to leave in the keeping of God everything of which he has need—behold, through doing this he is so well pleasing to God that God bestows upon him His grace. And, through grace, he feels true love: and love casts out doubt and fear, and fills the man with hope and trust, and thus he becomes a faithful servant, and means and loves God in all that he does. Behold, this is the difference between the faithful servant and the hireling.”

BLESSED JOHN OF RUYSBROECK – ‘THE SPARKLING STONE‘ – Chapter VI – ‘OF THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE HIRELINGS AND THE FAITHFUL…’; pages 104-105

[BLESSED JAN VAN RUYSBROEK – XIII-XIV Century AD; Ruisbroek, Holy Roman Empire/ Groenendael, Holy Roman Empire; Mystic, Spiritual Writer, Doctor Divinus Ecstaticus]
“Chapter VI ~ OF THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE HIRELINGS AND THE FAITHFUL SERVANTS OF GOD
NOW you may mark this: that some men receive the gifts of God as hirelings, but others as faithful servants of God
; and these differ one from another in all inward works, that is, in love and intention, in feeling and in every exercise of the inward life.
Now understand this well: all those who love themselves so inordinately that they will not serve God, save for their own profit and because of their own reward, these separate themselves from God, and dwell in bondage and in their own selfhood; for they seek, and aim at, their own, in all that they do. And therefore, with all their prayers and with all their good works, they seek after temporal things, or may be strive after eternal things for their own benefit and for their own profit.…More
