French Prime Minister, Sébastien Lecornu, has announced that the government's assisted dying bill will be referred to the Constitutional Council following its expected final approval in the National Assembly on 15 July. This will not prevent the law from being adopted, but it will delay its implementation until the highest constitutional authority in France has ruled on its compliance with the Constitution. Three issues may receive particular scrutiny: - The waiting period until death: Whether a minimum waiting period of two days between approval and confirmation is adequate for such an irreversible decision. - Protected adults: Whether people under guardianship or curatorship are sufficiently protected and capable of giving genuine informed consent. - Conscience clause: Doctors, nurses and healthcare institutions should have sufficient rights to refuse participation. As prime minister, Lecornu should have stopped this project, as he has done with many others. President Emmanuel Macron …অধিক
Although the SSPX does not possess ordinary territorial jurisdiction recognized by the Holy See, its bishops typically carry the crosier with the crook facing forward, a posture historically linked to jurisdictional authority. According to the traditional ceremonial, bishops lacking ordinary jurisdiction in the place where they officiate should carry the crosier with the crook turned toward themselves, not facing forward.
Traditionis Custodes (2021) deepened wounds and, contrary to what Pope Francis intended, contributed to growing interest in the Roman rite, Archbishop Emeritus Héctor Aguer, 83, of La Plata, Argentina, wrote in a July 13 statement. He notes that the Roman rite is especially popular among the young and contributes to “a good portion of conversions.” “The transmission of the faith,” he adds, “is no longer passed, to a significant degree, from parents to children but from young people to young people.” Monsignor Aguer says that “persecution or the extreme measures of progressivism” will not stop this growing movement. It goes “far beyond mere fashion” - whereas the fashion over the past sixty years has been to turn the Novus Ordo into an anything-goes vehicle of liturgical devastation. He writes that the four Eucharistic Prayers of the Novus Ordo have effectively been displaced by “Eucharistic Prayer Zero” - whatever happens to occur to the celebrant at the moment. In Argentina, the proportion …অধিক
Archbishop Aguer, Argentina, on the Traditional Mass: “Traditionis Custodes, issued five years ago, far from healing the wounds, only deepened them. And contrary to what its promoter sought, it contributed to a growing interest in Tradition and Orthodoxy, especially among young people. Today, a good portion of conversions occur among those who prefer the ancient rite (of the Mass). And the transmission of the faith, to a great extent, is no longer passed from parents to children, but from young people to young people”
Catholic Confronts Argentine Priest - Receiving Communion while Kneeling: A man identifying himself as Mariano de Jesús recently confronted Rev. Andrés P. Rousseu-Salet of the parish Nuestra Señora del Carmen in Villa Allende, Córdoba, Argentina, over reports that he prohibits the faithful from receiving Holy Communion while kneeling. Rev. Rousseu-Salet objects to being filmed and blocks the camera with his hand, saying, "You're being disrespectful by filming without authorization." Mariano replies, "We have the right to kneel. The Church instructs us to do so. We are not doing anything wrong."
Según denuncian, el padre Andrés Russeu-Salet estaría negando la comunión a los que se arrodillan para recibirla. Es en Córdoba, República Argentina.
X Freeze @XFreeze America’s birth rate is in serious decline The graph should terrify you: • U.S. fertility has fallen about 23% since 2007 • The total fertility rate is now around 1.6 births per woman • No U.S. state is above the replacement level of 2.1 anymore This is the population crisis Elon Musk has been warning about for years Fewer births today means a rapidly shrinking population. Humanity will eventually die in adult diapers… a slow, painful, depressing death There will be no young workforce left to sustain the economy or society. We need more births to sustain our population
Bishop Hieronymus Emusugut Joya of Maralal, Kenya, has suspended six diocesan priests as part of a sweeping package of measures. They are aimed at strengthening discipline and financial accountability. The suspensions follow allegations of abuse of ecclesiastical authority, administrative negligence, and the mismanagement of Church property. Announcing the decision during Mass on 12 July, Bishop Joya said he had acted only after receiving credible evidence. The suspensions affect a significant proportion of the diocese's clergy. Established by St. John Paul II in 2001, the diocese has 15 parishes served by 30 diocesan priests. Alongside the suspensions, Bishop Joya introduced a series of disciplinary and administrative directives for clergy, including: - Priests must return to their residences by 7:00 p.m. for evening prayer. - Priests require the bishop's permission to spend the night away from their residence. - No lay person may stay overnight in a priest's residence without prior …অধিক
1) If Church authorities proclaim doctrines that are sinful and CLEARLY contrary to the will of the Holy Spirit as expressed in the Holy Scriptures, they do not speak in the name of God. There is no iniquity in God, and God is not the author of iniquity. All iniquity will be uprooted. a) Ecclesiasticus (Sirach) 15:20: “He never commanded anyone to be ungodly, nor did He give anyone permission to sin.” b) Matthew 15:13; Jesus answered, “Every plant which My heavenly Father didn’t plant will be uprooted". c) It is public knowledge that, on many occasions, church authorities by demanding obedience and loyalty from those under their care made them victims of the sin of the flesh. 2) Divine law takes precedence over human law whenever the two come into direct conflict. a) Exodus 1:15-17; The Pharaoh of Egypt gave orders to the Hebrew midwives one of whom was named Shiphrah and the other Puah saying to them, “When you assist the Hebrew women in childbirth, look closely at the two stones: if …অধিক
Prawo Boże ma pierwszeństwo przed prawem ludzkim, gdy te dwa wchodzą w bezpośredni konflikt. a) Księga Wyjścia 1:15-17; Faraon w Egipcie dał polecenie hebrajskim położnym, z których jedna miała na imię Szifra, a druga Pua, mówiąc do nich: „Kiedy będziecie pomagać hebrajskim kobietom w porodzie, przyjrzyjcie się uważnie dwóm kamieniom: jeśli to będzie chłopiec, zabijcie go, a jeśli dziewczynka, pozwólcie jej żyć”. Lecz położne bały się Boga i nie czyniły tak, jak im rozkazał król egipski, lecz pozostawiały chłopców przy życiu.
Swiss Pop Singer Films Lesbian Video in Historic Church: A 22-year-old Swiss pop singer filmed a music video with her girlfriend inside St. Emmeram Church in Regensburg, Germany. The video was intended to promote her song 'You Believe in Jesus, I Believe in Pussy', which celebrates her lesbian relationship. According to the parish, no filming permit had been granted. The matter has been referred to lawyers, and the video has since been removed from the internet.
„Ich bin aus allen Wolken gefallen, als ich das Video am Freitag gesehen habe“, sagte Roman Gerl, Pfarrer von Sankt Emmeram in Regensburg, am Montag. Es habe keine Dreherlaubnis gegeben, und für ein solches Projekt hätte er auch nie eine erteilt."
"One does not care for life by giving death," Father François Yambressinga, parish priest of La Madeleine in Châteaudun, said during his July 5 homily, before the French National Assembly's final vote on legalizing euthanasia tomorrow. He urged the faithful to "pray for life" and to "pray for parliamentarians so that they do not do just anything." Among the congregation was Philippe Vigier, the bill's general rapporteur. He is also the mayor of Châteaudun and a member of the National Assembly for Les Démocrates. Vigier attended the Mass because it was part of the town's annual Foire aux Laines medieval festival. Civic officials appear in costume. He sat in the front row dressed as the fifteenth-century military commander Jean de Dunois. Afterward, Vigier told L'Écho Républicain that he felt personally targeted and "deeply hurt" by the homily. "The priest appealed to the congregation while I had no opportunity to respond. That is unacceptable," he said. According to witnesses cited by …অধিক
Madrid's homosexual activist group Crismhom published recently photos on social media from its attendance at Leo XIV's meeting with "civil society" during his visit to Spain. On June 7, the group became the first homosexual organization officially invited to a papal event in Spain. The invitation came from pro-homosexual Cardinal José Cobo of Madrid. Speaking to Artículo14.es, Crismhom president Ramón Legaspi Yrimia said the invitation showed "that the diverse Church exists and has a voice" and that "we, as LGBTI people, are part of the Church, not something foreign to it." Later that day, Crismhom members attended the Pope's public Eucharist in Madrid, where they called for recognition of Catholic homosexual activists "as first-class Christians" and demanded access to the sacrament of marriage (!) "without distinction." #newsGpodwlxkei
Here we see another example of the inverted schism of those who side with Prevost while persisting in their rebellion against the law of God and Catholic morality.
The Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X is formally challenging the Vatican decree issued on 2 July by the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith that excommunicated its six bishops. On 11 July, it filed the required preliminary appeal under canon law. According to the Society, this filing temporarily suspends the enforcement of the decree while the appeal process is underway. Communiqué of 13 July The Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X announces that, in response to the decree issued on 2 July 2026 by the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, it submitted on 11 July a preliminary recourse to the same Dicastery, in accordance with canons 1734 and following of the Code of Canon Law. This request, which constitutes the mandatory preliminary step before the possible introduction of a hierarchical recourse, has the effect of suspending the execution of the decree, in accordance with canon 1353 of the Code of Canon Law. By this recourse, the Society intends to exercise the right which …অধিক
Jesus Mosaic from Plastic Bottle Caps: Students from Instituto Nuestra Señora de Lourdes in Buenos Aires, Argentina, have created a mosaic of the face of Jesus using thousands of plastic bottle caps. The face is inspired by Leonardo da Vinci's The Last Supper. The project was shared by their art teacher, Sebastián Ramírez. He included the phrase "Soli Deo Gloria" ("Glory to God alone") in the post. The students have previously created mosaics honoring Pope Francis, Salvador Dalí, and Lionel Messi.

Bishop Charles Morerod of the Diocese of Lausanne, Geneva and Fribourg, Switzerland, said he no longer sees how a request to use a diocesan church for an FSSPX event could be granted today. He was asked about October 5, 2019, when the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X celebrated its 50th anniversary at St. Maurice Church in Fribourg. Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre opened its first house of formation for seminarians in Fribourg in October 1969 before moving the seminary to Ecône in 1970. Speaking to Cath.ch on July 12, Bishop Morerod explained that his 2019 decision reflected a different moment in the relationship between the Priestly Fraternity and Rome: "When I approved the use of a diocesan church back then, it was done in a spirit of goodwill, at a time when a rapprochement between the FSSPX and Rome was still possible." He added that the FSSPX has "no intention whatsoever of entering into any process of reconciliation." Bishop Morerod said future dialogue would be on different terms:…অধিক
" Bishop Charles Morerod of the Diocese of Lausanne, Geneva and Fribourg, Switzerland, said he no longer sees how a request to use a diocesan church for an FSSPX event could be granted today." " It will certainly be necessary to begin an ecumenically oriented dialogue with the FSSPX, similar to the one we maintain with other communities that are not in communion with Rome."" --- Bishop Morerod is completely illogical: today - if SSPX is deemed by Post-Conciliar Church in the same position as "ecumenical" "separated brothers" in "imperfect communion" then even basilicas in Rome or even the Lateran cathedral should be granted to them today (cf. Mrs. Sarah last visit in Rome and Anglican "Mass" at Lateran in 2023 as examples).
