The story of Nathan Trevallion and Catherine Birmingham, in Italy, is paradoxical because they embody the lifestyle that the so-called 'green' tyranny wants for everyone: they are the only people who comply with the ecological footprint. However, they clash with another ideology, that of the omnipotent state.
The diaconate divides Vatican commission on women deacons
The ten members called upon to express their opinion on the ordination of women deacons are divided into two theological currents. The issue that emerged in Cardinal Petrocchi's summary concerns the understanding of the third degree of holy orders. The ball is now in the Pope's court; he is not bound by their opinions.
Younan the disheartened patriarch makes futile attempt to gain Pope’s support
The majority of Syriac Catholic bishops had asked for his resignation, a decision later supported by the Holy See. However, during a private meeting in Beirut between the Pope and the Catholic patriarchs, Younan sought his brothers' support in an attempt to convince Prevost to change his mind. It is highly unlikely that he will.
The new gold rush is an eviction notice for the dollar system
Gold prices have more than doubled since the start of 2024 and recently reached a new all-time high of $4,400 per ounce. This explosive rise in gold is a direct result of the sharp erosion in the purchasing power of fiat money — money 'printed' by central banks.
Journalists expose the anti-clerical professor who embraces the faith; the priest who leaves his lover and converts; the sudden and inexplicable healings; and the holiness of Pierina. The Daily Compass interviews Don Bruno Libralesso, a close friend of the Montichiari visionary
The paradox of Trump: the 'peacemaker' attacking Venezuela
While intensifying efforts to resolve the conflict in Ukraine, US President Trump is moving closer to a military attack on Venezuela. How can this be explained? Because the real goal is not peace, but US interests.
In response to journalist Diane Montagna, the Prefect of the CDF explained that the title of 'Co-Redemptrix' should no longer be used in liturgical texts or Vatican documents. However, it could still be used among friends after reading and understanding the 'Mater Populi Fidelis'. This is an incredible blunder which creates a rift within the Church. The case of the 'mutinous' Mariologists.
Abuse: the ghosts of Chiclayo haunt Pope Leo
A harsh statement from an alleged victim of sexual abuse in Peru challenges the dispensation from the priesthood granted by Pope Leo to Father Lute, the accused priest. This decision prevents the truth from being ascertained and justice from being done — a very poor decision.

Pope Leo dreams of a synodal and interventionist CEI in Assisi
What will the Church in Italy be like in the Prevost era? Some clues can be found in the city of St Francis, where the Pope concluded the general assembly of Italian bishops by calling for intervention in the public arena. There were two indications of governance, and no U-turn on the Synod
A fake pro-Israel humanitarian NGO "helps" Palestinians leave Gaza
Hundreds of Palestinians are leaving the Strip after paying between $1,500 and $2,000 to the organisation Al-Majd Europe, having been enticed by vague promises. Their destinations include South Africa, Indonesia, and Malaysia. This development contrasts with Trump's peace plan, phase two of which has just been approved by the UN.
For Cardinal Zuppi the end of Christianity is not a fact, but a dogma
It's not just over; the old Christian society is also a useless burden, according to the president of the Italian Bishops’ Conference (CEI). He announces the new 'good news' at the general assembly: secularisation will set you free. Thus a principle is elevated to a dogma, according to which the Church should allow the world to enlighten it on matters of faith.
