The ecclesiastical circumscription, an idea for the Ancient Rite
The founder of the St Vincent Ferrer Fraternity, Father de Blignières, proposes an ecclesiastical circumscription for the Ancient Rite. A concrete proposal, after Traditionis custodes, to respond to the need of many faithful who want to remain in communion with the Pope.
Sunset of the Ursula Majority, the bluff is called
Under the current conditions, the possibility is high that a possible reapplication of von der Leyen, with unchanged line-ups, will be scuttled by franchi tiratori. Either 'Ursula' leans towards a different majority or a new leader figure is found who embodies the sense of the new balances that have matured at continental level.
Viganò and Lefebvrians, the illusion of a Tradition without Church
Canonical trial for the former nuncio, while the Fraternity founded by Mgr Lefebvre announces the illicit consecration of new bishops. But going beyond legitimate criticism of ecclesiastical authorities leads to schism. And it is not the solution.
Medjugorje, the necessary novena for peace
In view of the 43rd anniversary of the beginning of the Medjugorje apparitions, which are still unrecognised, Our Lady asked through the visionary Marija for a special novena for peace, to be experienced by ascending Podbrdo.

Xi Jinping like Mao: Chinese forced to spy on each other
In Xi Jinping's China, Mao's Cultural Revolution methods are seeping back. In order to prevent dissent, the 'Fengqiao experience' system is reintroduced: volunteer vigilantes who incite citizens to denounce one another.
All the pitfalls of Putin's proposed peace plan
Putin proposes peace to Ukraine. The problem is on what terms? The terms are so harsh they amount to surrender. An analysis is required that goes beyond the usual simplification of the facts.
The Pope at the G7, an opportunity missed
The speech on Artificial Intelligence was full of useless technicalities and poor in terms of foundations for the desired ethical choices. No reference to God and Jesus, nor to natural law. But the person, morality and politics do not hold up without God.
“PERSEVERE IN THE FAITH” The Daily Compass fund-raising campaign
In this time of darkness, it is necessary to attain clarity and 'persevere in the faith', which also means holding tight to the right criteria with which to examine the real world.

Hamas wants Palestinians dead, it is time to face the truth
Palestinian victims are 'a necessary sacrifice': this statement by the Hamas leader is not only a demonstration of political cynicism, but expresses that deadly nihilism typical of jihadism. Something it’s time we reckon with, even in our homeland.
Moltmann, the father of errors of contemporary theology
The Protestant theologian also had great influence in Catholic circles. A negative influence, which relies on hope but places it within history, secularising faith. The results are still evident today.
