Catholic Italian author Vittorio Messori, 84, died on Good Friday in Desenzano, Italy. One of his most influential works was The Ratzinger Report, which was based on an interview with Joseph Ratzinger conducted in 1984. The book evaluated the Church's condition following the Second Vatican Council. Messori also collaborated with Pope John Paul II on the book Crossing the Threshold of Hope. In it, the Pope wrote that Jesus Christ is the unique Saviour of humanity and that Christianity contains the fullness of revealed truth. Throughout his career, Messori was renowned for his loyalty to the Church, coupled with his intellectual independence. #newsKlrgxiolhj
Grant him, O Lord, eternal rest, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. "Vittorio Messori—the most influential commentator on Vatican affairs—published an article in which he explained: 'That is to say, it has been revealed that Pope Benedict XVI had no intention of renouncing the *Petrinus munus*—neither the office nor the duties—which Christ Himself entrusted to the Head of the Apostles and which has been handed down to his successors.'" This means that, by *not* renouncing, there was no apostolic succession; consequently, both Bergoglio and Prevost are false popes. That is why Bergoglio did not wear the Ring of the Fisherman—nor, much less, does the successor to that apostate of unhappy memory, Jorge Bergoglio. (Pope Benedict XVI) “He left the papal throne but did not abandon his ministry,” explained Gänswein—something “almost impossible following his irrevocable acceptance of the …Mwy
So what happens when we refuse to see the truth….what is truth asks Pilate…there is truth..in this case it is Russia who is trying to make peace, not agitate for war….Are we so blind that we cannot see….
By their fruits you shall know them. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? McGovern thinks that Putin is trying to talk sense into trump. With Putin giving him the real cold Turkey saying, we can't let this go on so that Israel is destroyed and has no other option than to use nukes. It's always President Putin who tries to restore and make peace. This is why Russia is so Blessed. And why some hate the fact Putin was not involved in the epstein files as they had hoped. I lost count this year alone on how many times President Putin and Russia was rewarded for helping out others. No matter how much some try to make us hate Russia or Putin, the facts always speak louder than words. And they just can't handle that. By their fruits you shall know them. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

According to LifeSiteNews, Pope Leo XIV has “restored the tradition of washing the feet of 12 priests on Holy Thursday following a 14-year hiatus of the practice.” The report notes that the Pope is returning both to the traditional location of the Lateran Basilica and to the longstanding custom of washing the feet of clergy …Mwy
Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity.news, Europe is literally paying Indians hundreds of euros a month to “study” while its own students can’t afford rent and are drowning in debt. In a now-viral video, an Indian student in Europe boasts about the arrangement. He explains how the EU provides him with 1400 euros every single month that covers rent, travel, and meals, with zero student debt, while he still saves 600 euros every single month. He walks through what he calls “elite scholarship secrets,” noting that a simple bachelor’s degree, a valid passport, and basic English proficiency suffice — adding that “IELTS is not always mandatory” and a certificate from some random school abroad will do. The poster highlighted the post with clear frustration: “literally bragging about scamming the system with a degree that’s worth less than a high school diploma in the west… total subversion of our education system and you are the one footing the bill. Peak comedy.” In follow-ups, …
Haben Sie das gelesen, Herr Merz? ... Und es sind wohl nicht alleine die Inder .... Inder prahlen online damit, das europäische Bildungssystem auszunutzen „Europa zahlt Indern buchstäblich Hunderte von Euro im Monat fürs „Studium“, während sich die eigenen Studenten keine Miete leisten können und in Schulden ertrinken. In einem mittlerweile viralen Video prahlt ein indischer Student in Europa mit seiner Stipendienregelung. Er erklärt, wie ihm die EU monatlich 1400 Euro für Miete, Reisekosten und Verpflegung zur Verfügung stellt, ohne dass er Studienschulden anhäuft, und dass er trotzdem jeden Monat 600 Euro spart. Er erläutert die sogenannten „Geheimnisse des Elite-Stipendiums“ und merkt an, dass ein einfacher Bachelor-Abschluss, ein gültiger Reisepass und grundlegende Englischkenntnisse ausreichen – und fügt hinzu, dass „IELTS nicht immer erforderlich ist“ und ein Zertifikat einer beliebigen ausländischen Schule genüge.

Book of Isaiah 52,13-15.53,1-12. See, my servant shall prosper, he shall be raised high and greatly exalted. Even as many were amazed at him-- so marred was his look beyond that of man, and his appearance beyond that of mortals-- So shall he startle many nations, because of him kings shall stand speechless; For those who have not been told shall see, those who have not heard shall ponder it. Who would believe what we have heard? To whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed? He grew up like a sapling before him, like a shoot from the parched earth; There was in him no stately bearing to make us look at him, nor appearance that would attract us to him. He was spurned and avoided by men, a man of suffering, accustomed to infirmity, One of those from whom men hide their faces, spurned, and we held him in no esteem. Yet it was our infirmities that he bore, our sufferings that he endured, While we thought of him as stricken, as one smitten by God and afflicted. But he was pierced for our …Mwy
Buch Jesaja 52,13-15.53,1-12. Siehe, mein Knecht wird Erfolg haben, er wird sich erheben und erhaben und sehr hoch sein. Wie sich viele über dich entsetzt haben – so entstellt sah er aus, nicht mehr wie ein Mensch, seine Gestalt war nicht mehr die eines Menschen –, so wird er viele Nationen entsühnen, Könige schließen vor ihm ihren Mund. Denn was man ihnen noch nie erzählt hat, das sehen sie nun; was sie niemals hörten, das erfahren sie jetzt. Wer hat geglaubt, was wir gehört haben? Der Arm des HERRN – wem wurde er offenbar? Vor seinen Augen wuchs er auf wie ein junger Spross, wie ein Wurzeltrieb aus trockenem Boden. Er hatte keine schöne und edle Gestalt, sodass wir ihn anschauen mochten. Er sah nicht so aus, dass wir Gefallen fanden an ihm. Er wurde verachtet und von den Menschen gemieden, ein Mann voller Schmerzen, mit Krankheit vertraut. Wie einer, vor dem man das Gesicht verhüllt, war er verachtet; wir schätzten ihn nicht. Aber er hat unsere Krankheit getragen und unsere Schmerzen …Mwy
Imagine this. You’re a Palestinian running a small shop in the West Bank. Then they arrive: Israeli settlers, masked, storm in and destroy everything. If you dare to resist,you’re taken by the IDF and your life is finished.
Synodality in Action: During the Holy Thursday liturgy, Bishop Michael Martin of Charlotte, North Carolina, delegated the foot-washing ritual to lay men and women. The Eucharist was at the Jesuits' church. Bishop Martin participated in the ritual himself, but he also allowed members of the laity to perform much of the optional Mandatum.
Brian Williams on Twitter: Meanwhile in Charlotte, Bishop Martin delegated the washing of feet on Holy Thursday to lay men and women. +Martin did participate to some degree, but at this Jesuit parish where he chose to celebrate Holy Thursday, the laity assumed the role of the clergy for much of the (optional) mandatum.

This morning Isaac Herzog, the President of Israel, called Pope Leo XIV, and they spoke on the telephone. They exchanged greetings for Passover and Easter. They discussed the current situation in the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.
Catholics do not celebrate Passover. Jesus Christ fulfilled the Old Law regarding Passover. To exchange greetings about Passover is to deny Christ's establishment of the Holy Eucharist and His death on the cross! Shame on those people!
Franciscan Father Francesco Patton wrote the meditations for tonight's Stations of the Cross at the Colosseum in Rome with Pope Leo XIV. Fr Patton served as Custos of the Holy Land from 2016 to 2025. On April 1, he told VaticanNews.va that the inspiration comes from "current reality" and that the meditations are meant to inspire political "change". The Vatican press office published the text today. Traditionally a penitential and contemplative devotion, the Via Crucis is repurposed here as a vehicle for contemporary socio-political reflection. The text shifts from the Passion of Christ to war, refugees, human trafficking, surveillance, deportation, the media, the economy, prisons, hostages, and crackdowns on protests. Notably absent, however, are abortion, euthanasia, and gender ideology. One acclamation reads: "For migrants, the displaced, and refugees: Comfort us, O Mother." In the first station, the meditation talks about political and economic power "to start or end a war… the power …Mwy
