Cardinal Timothy Radcliffe spoke to AdVaticanum.com on July 4 about his participation in a London Eucharist at Holy Apostles Church including a liturgical blessing for a homosexual couple. The interview is obvious gaslighting, not to say blatant lying, given that the livestream had been published on YouTube. The event was held on June 13 to mark the 50-year homosexual partnership of Julian Filochowski and Martin Pendergast, two longstanding figures in "pastoral outreach" to homosexual Catholics. The principal celebrant was Fr. Jim O'Keefe, with concelebrants including Bishop John Crowley, emeritus of Middlesbrough, and Bishop John Rawsthorne, emeritus of Hallam. "I gave no blessing to anyone" Cardinal Radcliffe claimed: "I gave no blessing to anyone and had not been aware that any blessings would be given." However, the picture above shows him making the sign of the cross during the blessing of the two homosexuals standing side by side like a married couple. The text was based on a …More
And now, a crucial question arises: Could the cardinals of the 1958 conclave have known whether the new Pope was resigning under duress? The answer is yes! What's more, they knew it because they were all canonists, of course. But how could this be recognised? It's quite simple! We don't see a new Pope accepting his office only to renounce it half an hour later, and what's more, only in front of the cardinals, the people having been notified of his election only by the white smoke. The cardinals should therefore have informed the new Pope that his resignation was invalid under canon 185, and that the conclave was already over because of his acceptance.

Had Pope Pius XII lived two years longer, much of the mess would not have occurred. Roncalli never would have been elected and Montini would not have been named a cardinal.

A Papal Handshake, a Cathedral Fire, and a Murder: On July 4 in Lampedusa, Leo XIV shook the hands of 20 illegal immigrants who had just arrived in Europe. He reminded everyone that all human life carries immeasurable worth. One of his predecessor’s handshakes later took on a dark meaning. In 2016, Pope Francis shook hands with Rwandan national Emmanuel Abayisenga. In 2020, Abayisenga set fire to the 15th-century Nantes cathedral in France. In 2021, he murdered the priest who had taken him in and sheltered him after the fire.

Archbishop Bernard Hebda of Saint Paul and Minneapolis wrote on July 2 about the episcopal consecrations by the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX): "In the ten years that I have led this local Church, I have met many sincere people who worship regularly or occasionally at the chapels of the SSPX within the territory of our Archdiocese. I have been impressed by the strength of their families and their commitment to traditional Catholic values." He acknowledges that the FSSPX bishops’ excommunication will affect them in a particular way and hopes they will not follow them “in separating themselves from Pope Leo XIV.” Monsignor Hebda also noted that the Traditional Latin Mass is celebrated at six locations in the Archdiocese, adding: “I am confident that those who prefer the Traditional Latin Mass could find a home here.” #newsEtakruhtwp
Just as predicted, when the Holy See announced the excommunication of the bishops consecrated by the Society of Saint Pius X, the headlines were horrible. Attention immediately centred upon the gravity of the penalty and the implications for the Society’s future. Supporters and critics alike hurried to debate Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre’s legacy, the necessity claimed by the Society and the consequences for traditional Catholics throughout the world. Almost unnoticed, however, another conversation began among canon lawyers.
Thanks for posting this here. Think of this as each of these 10 million mourners appearing for each lukewarm Catholic. And you can understand why the Al-Aqsa mosque was built on top of the old temple.
When a search party found Jimmy Shaver wandering near San Antonio, Texas, he appeared to be in a trance, unable to explain where he was or how he had gotten there. After his arrest, he reportedly failed to recognize his own wife when she visited him in jail. Until the moment he was executed four years later, Shaver insisted he had no memory of committing the crime for which he had been sentenced to death.
July 2026: The "Fiery" Red Sky & Day-time Fireball If you noticed an eerie, intense glow or strange flashes over the July 4th weekend, it was a mix of intense weather and celestial events: The "Apocalyptic" Sunset: A powerful summer thunderstorm broke right at sunset, combining atmospheric light scattering with lingering smoke from Fourth of July fireworks. This turned the entire city sky a dramatic, fiery red and neon orange. [1, 2] Constant "Strobe" Lightning: The storm produced relentless intra-cloud lightning. This made the clouds flash rapidly like a giant strobe light without making immediate loud thunder rumbles. Daytime Fireball: Separately, on July 5, 2026, the American Meteor Society tracked a rare, incredibly bright daytime fireball meteor streaking across New York, New Jersey, and neighboring states.
