Dijon Archbishop Celebrates Funeral for French Freemason — Macron Delivers Speech: François Patriat — an acknowledged Freemason, Senator for Côte-d’Or and president of Macron’s RDPI group in the French Senate — received a Catholic funeral at Notre-Dame de Semur-en-Auxois. Archbishop Antoine Hérouard of Dijon presided over the funeral. President Emmanuel Macron — who has championed France’s euthanasia legislation — delivered a speech inside the church in tribute to one of his earliest and most faithful political allies: “Every time I turned around, François was there.”
Obsèques de François Patriat à Semur-en-Auxois : la prise de parole du Président Emmanuel Macron. Le président qui vient de signer la loi sur l’euthanasie prend la parole dans l’église.
Two decades ago, a weekly cultural program called Panorama Radial aired on an AM radio station in the suburbs of Buenos Aires (Radio Mi País) addressed a variety of topics of interest to Catholics, many of them related to religious and civil anniversaries. It was a rare and educational gem amidst the deluge of modern media, which has submerged a large part of the population. Some of its topics remain surprisingly relevant. Therefore, we have decided to publish them here, without a fixed date, starting with a broadcast from July 18, 2006, shortly before the publication of Summorum Pontificum, which discusses the unjust restrictions the hierarchy applies to the Tridentine Mass! It is lamentable to note that, in this regard, everything is the same or worse than it was then!
Wicked people—obstinate, malicious, and willfully blind—call an apostate who rebels against God "Pope," thereby contributing to this great diabolical deception and helping this impostor continue to murder souls.
Rev. Michael Pfleger, 77, was reinstated effective August 24 after the Archdiocese of Chicago's Independent Review Board completed its investigation. He is known nationally for his progressive activism. Cardinal Blase Cupich, 77, said the board, assisted by the Office of Child Protection and outside investigators, concluded there was “no reason to believe” Pfleger was guilty of the allegation. Cupich accepted the recommendation and returned him to ministry at St. Sabina. According to the Chicago Sun-Times reporting, a woman alleged that Pfleger sexually abused her when she was a girl attending St. Sabina's school sometime between 1993 and 1995. The allegation surfaced this July, and Pfleger was removed from ministry on July 11 while it was investigated. Rev. Pfleger denied it emphatically from the outset, calling it an “absolute lie.” Under archdiocesan policy, the allegation was reported to police, and the accuser was offered assistance through the church's Victim Assistance Ministry. …Ọzọ

Wicked people who are willfully blind have backed the apostate Prevost in defying God and have helped him murder souls.

Cordileone: “Powerful Forces in the West” Are Forcing Their Culture on Africa: Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone warned that Western society has lost its understanding of family. He spoke during the August 22 ordination of 14 priests in Makurdi, Nigeria. “We no longer understand these basic truths in the West, not even what it means to be a family born of a mutual self-giving love of husband and wife,” Cordileone said. He described Western society as increasingly lifeless and self-centered: “Even more serious are the powerful forces in the West that are forcing this on the rest of the world, especially here in Africa,” he said. “Thank you for resisting. I know the pressure is great, especially for national leaders on this continent.”
Archbishop Cordileone in Nigeria: “We no longer understand these basic truths in the West, not even what it means to be a family born of a mutual self-giving love of husband and wife.” “As a consequence, our Western society has become lifeless and colorless with the decreasing capacity for relationship.” “Even friendship, the love of Philios, let alone Agape, has become self-centered.”
Demonic and egocentric: Prevost (powerful forces) mercilessly forces the unsuspecting mortal sinners Fiducia Supplicans (promotion of same-sex partnership) and Amoris Laetitia (promotion of cohabitation and sacrilegious communion) upon them, which lead to hell.
The Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (SSPX) has announced that it will continue its annual pilgrimage to Lourdes. Following the episcopal consecrations on July 1 in Ecône, Bishop Jean-Marc Micas of Tarbes and Lourdes withdrew permission for the SSPX to celebrate public Masses, administer sacraments, or organize public prayers at Lourdes. In an August 22 statement, Fr. Gonzague Peignot, superior of the FSSPX in France, announced that the Fraternity intends to continue coming to Lourdes every year, “Our Lady does not deserve to be abandoned despite the obstacles,” he said. The FSSPX expressed 'sorrow and incomprehension', questioning the bishop's decision and pointing to the interreligious Christian-Muslim pilgrimage that was welcomed at the sanctuary in October 2025. For now, the FSSPX faithful intend to remain present at Lourdes, but their pilgrimage will no longer be able to take the same public form as in previous years. #newsPjxbelhyed
Vatican diplomat calls for end to Ukraine war during Moscow visit: Archbishop Paul Richard Gallagher, the Holy See’s Secretary for Relations with States, met Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on Tuesday. “Let us be clear, this war must end,” Gallagher said after the talks. He warned that every additional day of fighting creates new victims and makes future reconciliation more difficult. Gallagher said the talks also covered possible paths toward peace and humanitarian issues. It is Gallagher’s first visit to Moscow since 2021.

@brhenry The Divine Liturgy is not the question of discipline but lex orandi strictly related to lex credendi. The Council of Trent confirmed the above proclaiming anathemas against sacramental revolutionaries (Canon XIII about the Sacraments in general).
"So, then, if anyone says that the Roman Pontiff has only an office of supervision or guidance, and not the full and supreme power of jurisdiction over the whole Church, and this not only in matters of faith and morals, but also in those which concern the discipline and government of the Church dispersed throughout the whole world; or that he has only the principal part, but not the absolute fullness of this supreme power; or that this power of his is not ordinary and immediate both over all and each of the Churches and over all and each of the pastors and faithful: let him be anathema."

On 23 August, at Holy Family Church in St. Louis Park, Minnesota, a woman knelt at the Communion rail during Communion. Just as the priest was about to give her Communion, she stood and handed him a flower. Despite Communion being distributed by intinction, she grabbed the Host and then took the chalice used for intinction, drank from it, and threw it onto the floor before leaving the church with an escort. The priest immediately purified the area where the Precious Blood had been spilled.
A disturbing incident occurred during Sunday Mass at Holy Family Church in St. Louis Park, Minnesota, where a woman disrupted Communion by grabbing and dropping the vessel used for intinction, spilling some of the Precious Blood.
Since they have a video of the Mass, hand it over to the police and send copies to the news media. If it were just the humans being disrespected, they could choose to "grin and bear it" but since God was profaned, the woman needs to be tracked down and punished.
Bishop Guido Gallese, 64, of Alessandria, Piedmont, is reportedly set to be removed from his diocese. LoSpiffero.com wrote on August 23 that the Apostolic Nuncio to Italy, Archbishop Edgar Peña Parra, has been handling negotiations over Gallese’s exit following an Apostolic Visitation conducted by Cardinal Giuseppe Bertello earlier this year. Bishop Gallese, who is described as reluctant to leave, had sought a transfer to another diocese, but the proposal was rejected. Archbishop Peña Parra, who previously served as the Substitute for General Affairs in the Vatican Secretariat of State, offered the bishop several possible “ways out.” The solution now under discussion would see Bishop Gallese become ecclesiastical assistant to the Collegamento Nazionale Santuari, Italy’s national network of Catholic shrines. Ansa.it reported that the Apostolic Visitation focused on the administration and finances of the diocese amid controversy over the bishop’s lifestyle. Considerable media attention …Ọzọ
Has World War III Already Started? nytimes.com/…/25/opinion/has-world-war-iii-alread… Aug. 25, 2026, 4:00 p.m. ET By Bret Stephens Opinion Columnist Shortly after Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, I wrote a column under the headline “This Is How World War III Begins.” More than four years on, I wonder how much I got right. My argument was based on the origins of World War II, which did not simply start with Germany’s invasion of Poland on Sept. 1, 1939. Instead, the war was an accumulation of regional wars and crises, beginning with Japan’s invasion of Manchuria in 1931, which gradually gathered into a single global conflict. That gathering, abetted by the converging ambitions of the totalitarian states and the divisions and vacillations of the democracies, led to catastrophe. Added to this was a revolution in military technology and tactics that gave the dictatorships an early advantage in offensive combat. Also an advantage: their willingness to inflict — and endure —…Ọzọ
German Bishop: Perceived Absence of God Expands Homosexual Practices: “Conservative” Bishop Stefan Oster of Passau said in his Assumption homily that the lifestyles, sexual preferences and identities displayed at Christopher Street Day are difficult to reconcile with the Christian view of humanity: “The perceived absence of God has massively expanded the scope of what is possible within the entire context surrounding sex and gender.” Oster asked: “Is the writer Dostoevsky ultimately right when he says, ‘If God does not exist, then everything is permitted’?”
Videozitat: Bischof Stefan Oster von Passau sprach in seiner am 17. August 2026 veröffentlichten Predigt zu Mariä Himmelfahrt über Menschenwürde, Säkularisierung und den Wandel des Menschenbildes. Zum Christopher Street Day sagte Oster: „Wenn wir den Christopher Street Day in seinen verschiedenen Formen betrachten, mit den vielen Facetten von offen zur Schau gestellten Lebensweisen, sexuellen Präferenzen und angeeigneten Identitäten, dann wird auch hier unmittelbar anschaubar, wie fundamental sich Gesellschaft verändert hat.“ Zugleich stellte er die Frage: „Entspricht das dann der Würde des Menschen, die uns von Gott gegeben ist? Oder widerspricht es ihr nicht viel mehr?“ Weiter fragte Oster: „Hat der Schriftsteller Dostojewski am Ende recht, wenn er sagt, wenn es Gott nicht gibt, dann ist alles erlaubt.“ Dabei betonte der Bischof ausdrücklich: „Auch alle Menschen, die da teilnehmen, [sind] geliebte Kinder Gottes mit unverlierbarer Würde“ und Christen hätten sie „in ihrer Freiheit zu …Ọzọ
