Today, Leo XIV accepted the resignation of Italian born Bishop Antonio Santarsiero Rosa, 75, of Huacho, Peru. No successor was appointed. The resignation follows allegations of homosexual misconduct. In April 2026, InfoVaticana.com had reported that complaints had been submitted to the Apostolic Nunciature in Lima and to the Vatican, accusing Santarsiero of homosexually abusing a former minor seminarian and a priest who had served as his secretary. As usual, Santarsiero has categorically denied all allegations. The seminarian claimed Santarsiero subjected him to unwanted sexual contact and used promises of scholarships, employment, and opportunities within the diocese to exercise influence over him. The former secretary to Santarsiero alleges that the bishop subjected him to unwanted physical contact and psychological manipulation. According to the dossier, the priest also claims Santarsiero attempted to discredit him by spreading claims about his sexual orientation after he rejected …Zêde
"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 …Zêde
During the Mass on July 5, at the Church of the Madeleine in Châteaudun, Father François Yambressinga condemned the proposed law on assistance in dying in his homily, while Deputy-Mayor Philippe Vigier, co-general rapporteur of the bill, was seated in the front row. The elected official, who said he felt "personally attacked," then spoke with the priest after the celebration. The latter is supported by the Bishop of Chartres.
‘Spotlight’ was a heavily biased film about The Boston Globe coverage of sex abuse in the Catholic Church. The problem with a spotlight is its narrowly focused beam.
Anik Singal Someone built a Chrome extension that fact-checks politicians while they're still talking. It's called InTruth, made by a Reddit user as a research project on AI and deception. Point it at a live debate, interview, or press conference. It transcribes the speech in real time, pulls sources from the open web, then sends everything to Claude for a verdict. True, misleading, or false tagged before the next sentence even starts. No waiting for tomorrow's fact-check articles. No "we'll get back to you on that." The lie gets caught in the same breath it's told. That's insane lol. facebook.com/…-politicians-while-theyre-still/101…
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 …Zêde
Euthanasia in Canada is out of control. Since 2016 when it was legalized, the state has now killed over 100,000 Canadians. And those are just the reported cases. This evil must not be legislated anywhere.
The controversial organisation Amnesty International UK published a report on 8 July listing the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales among 117 organizations it described as part of an “anti-rights movement” in the United Kingdom. The report, A Growing Threat: the Anti-Rights Movement in the UK, said the listed organizations formed an ecosystem seeking to undermine the rights of women and homosexuals. It also named the Catholic Medical Association, Premier Christian News, J.K. Rowling’s women-only support service Beira’s Place, and a number of Christian, pro-life, and gender-critical organizations. The report defined “anti-rights actors” as groups, individuals, and public or private bodies seeking to weaken human rights protections in law and practice. The publication drew criticism from a number of the organizations named. Two days after publication, Amnesty International UK withdrew the report. It said the document had been published without passing the organization's …Zêde
Fantastic article. Shame about the Vatican isn't it? I wonder why they did this, "Because the specific 1949 excommunication of communist Catholics was not incorporated into the 1983 Code, that automatic canonical penalty is no longer in effect." Ah make the Catholic Church safe for communists again!
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 …Zêde
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”

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 …Zêde
"IF THOU wilt anything profit to the health of thy soul keep thee always in the dread of God, (and never desire to be full), at liberty, but keep thee always under some whole some discipline. Never give thyself to indiscreet mirth, for any manner of thing, as nigh as thou mayest. Have perfect compunction and sorrow for thy sins, and thou shalt find thereby great inward devotion."
[Thomas a Kempis – XIV-XV Century AD; born: Kempen, Holy Roman Empire/died: Zwolle, Holy Roman Empire; aged 90-91; Canon, Regular] 21. OF COMPUNCTION OF THE HEART. IF THOU wilt anything profit to the health of thy soul keep thee always in the dread of God, (and never desire to be full), at liberty, but keep thee always under some whole some discipline. Never give thyself to indiscreet mirth, for any manner of thing, as nigh as thou mayest. Have perfect compunction and sorrow for thy sins, and thou shalt find thereby great inward devotion. Compunction openeth to the sight of the soul many good things, which lightness of heart and vain mirth soon driveth away. It is marvel that any man can be merry in this life, if he consider well how far he is exiled out of his country, and how great peril his soul daily standeth in: but through lightness of heart and negligence of our defaults we feel not the sorrow of our own soul : but oftentimes we laugh when we ought rather to weep and mourn, for …Zêde
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."

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.

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."
Two facts about the blasphemous, apostate, activist Timothy Peter Joseph Radcliffe that prove the complicity between Bergoglio, Prevost, and Radcliffe: The activist Jorge Bergoglio elevated him to the rank of 'cardinal' without him being a bishop, even though he was already an apostate priest known publicly as a formal and obstinate heretic and activist. Radcliffe participated in the invalid 'conclave' that invalidly elected the apostate and activist Prevost. The apostate Robert Prevost retains him in his invalid position despite his public apostasy, for he shares the same rebellion against God and the Church.

Infovaticana: " We are not talking about just any cleric. Timothy Radcliffe not only took part in the conclave: he was the cardinal chosen by Leo XIV to open with his meditation the first consistory of cardinals of his pontificate, in January 2026. We are therefore speaking of one of the figures of greatest doctrinal influence in the Catholic Church today."
Electroverse @Electroversenet Antarctica is colder and more icebound today than at any point in the past 5,000 years. Research by Hall (2023) found that West Antarctica cooled by more than 1.8C between 1999 and 2018. Satellite data confirm continent-wide cooling, as do multiple glacier studies. Piccini (2024) found the Collins Glacier was 1km farther back 6,000 years ago and began re-advancing about 1,000 years ago, which is clear evidence of cooling since the Medieval Warm Period. Even the biology of the continent documents this shift. A millennium ago, the Ross Sea hosted around 200,000 elephant seals as far south as 78 degrees. Today, those colonies are gone. They disappeared as the region froze over: too cold and ice-choked for breeding or foraging. The Hall paper concludes: "The last few centuries, including the present, represent the coldest, iciest conditions in the post-glacial period." Modern Antarctica is not warming, it's freezing.
