Pro- LGBT Cardinal Cobo divides Spanish Church

The Cardinal of Madrid bows to the LGBT lobby. The Bishop of Orihuela-Alicante reiterates Catholic doctrine. Confusion is fuelled by Fiducia Supplicans, leading down the failed path of embracing the secularised world.

Our Lady of the Assumption is the new and definitive Ark of the Covenant

In the Old Testament, we learn that the Ark of the Covenant was removed from the Temple and hidden by Jeremiah on Mount Zion on God's orders. According to a precise divine plan, it was never found again because it was the precursor to the true dwelling place of God with us: Mary, the new Ark, who was assumed into heaven.

Letter from Benedict XVI: the will not to understand

The aim of publishing the Pope Emeritus's letter about his resignation in book form is not to reopen dormant controversies; rather, it is part of correspondence intended as a tool for reflection on a significant period in the history of the Church that requires further exploration.

Benedict XVI's letter: why now?

Many of our readers have asked us about La Bussola’s publication of a book containing Benedict XVI's letter reiterating the fullness of his renunciation of the papacy. The question is, why has it been published after 11 years? The answer lies in the new historical phase that has begun within the Church.

The unpublished letter from Benedict XVI: 'My resignation is complete and valid'

The letter, written by the Pope Emeritus in August 2014 in response to objections regarding the validity and appropriateness of his resignation, is published for the first time in a book by Monsignor Nicola Bux (Realtà e utopia nella Chiesa [Reality and Utopia in the Church]), to whom it was addressed. This exceptional historical document should put an end to much sterile speculation.

A 'Priestess' in the Holy House of Loreto: Ecumenism of Confusion

After Brazil, the Basilica of Loreto where the Holy House of Mary is enshrined is cause for scandal: among the concelebrants, a woman vested in a cassock and collar (Protestant?). In the name of forced 'communion', the same misunderstanding is repeated and trumpeted, regardless of whether it pleases God.

Naples: Saint Charbel reveals the true answer to human suffering

Faith or realpolitik? This is the question implicit in the Neapolitan miracle of the Lebanese saint at a pivotal moment in Italy's history. It is a healthy shake-up to stir the faith as Italian politicians wrestle with the culture of death.

“Turin Shroud formed by a bas-relief”: same old hoax

The recurring claim that the image on the Shroud is fake has, this time, been based on a study lacking scientific merit. This proves only one thing: the Holy Shroud is a thorn in the side of those who are allergic to Christ.

Newman Doctor of the Church: “His condemnation of religious liberalism speaks to us today.”

St John Henry Newman is to be proclaimed a Doctor of the Church. The Daily Compass interviewed Bishop Edoardo Cerrato, an Oratorian like the English saint. 'He believed that a doctrine shows its true vitality when it becomes an active principle that translates into action. The 'note speech' in which he condemns religious liberalism is the aspect I have chosen for our times.

When Sainte-Anne-d'Auray converted the ‘devil of Brittany’

The Breton sanctuary is celebrating the 400th anniversary of the apparitions of Saint Anne to Yves Nicolazic. The story of the Breton sanctuary, since its origin, has been one of reconstruction and rebirth, against all odds, which includes the remarkable conversion of the 'devil of Brittany'.

What saves the world is the man who worships Christ

In the West, religion is often viewed as an activity that serves human well-being. However, God is not at our service. We must put Him first and live to worship and serve Him. This is what the world needs. (Cardinal Sarah's homily at Saint Anne d'Auray, France.)

Father Spadaro's fake interview with Leo XIV

An “interview” with the pope which is neither the author penned nor is an original text, is nonetheless ostentatiously reproduced in the latest book by the prolific Jesuit, published by an Italian editor. The book claims to show continuity between Francis and Leo. And the Italian daily La Stampa falls for the ploy. The only continuity that exists is with the publication mess reminiscent of Monsignor Dario Viganò's attempt to misuse a letter by Pope Benedict.
