The African case explains the chaos a synodal Church produces
As questions continue to arise over the Church’s understanding of the process and meaning of “Synodality,” the notable case of Africa’s response to Fiducia Supplicans suggests that implementing Synodality will simply create division, by allowing contradictory practices to exist in the Church.
Halloween concert to honour Satan staged in Italian church
In the church of San Dionigi in Vigevano northern Italy, on loan by the diocese to a banking foundation, a concert in honour of the devil will be held on the night of Halloween, complete with devilish dress code. The curia, when questioned by the Daily Compass, pleads its ignorance, but will make enquiries. The prophecy of the Holy Curé d'Ars comes true
If the Church adhered to an anti-pope it would already be over
Peaceful and universal adherence is not a mere ‘papist’ opinion, but a dogmatic fact that guarantees who the legitimate Pontiff is, not whether he is good or bad. And it is so closely linked to Revelation that denied the former, the latter collapses as well.
Vatican-China, extending the agreement damages Catholic Church
Beijing and the Holy See have announced a four-year extension to the secret agreement on bishop appointments and administration of the Chinese Church, first signed in 2018. Despite the poor results, the Vatican insists on a semblance of dialogue that is causing an increase in persecution for Chinese Catholics.
It takes more than priests and laity to declare a Pope illegitimate
The peaceful and universal adherence of the Church would not apply to Francis, for those who support the invalidity of his election, given the presence of discordant voices. Which, however, are not sufficient: if this were the case, no pontificate would be safe.
Universal acceptance of the Pope is always valid
There is a growing number of individuals and religious who are rejecting the legitimacy of Pope Francis. According to them, the Church's acceptance of the elected Pontiff is contradicted by the case of the antipope John XXIII (Baldassarre Cossa) with the support of other historical references. On the contrary, when put to the test, the arguments don’t prove their thesis.
Catholics are increasing worldwide. Except in Europe
On the occasion of World Mission Day, 20 October, Fides published a report on the state of the Church in the world. Nearly 14 million more Catholics, but numbers are falling in Europe.
New cardinals: Africa punished, Fiducia supplicans' takes revenge
Africans almost absent among the 21 cardinals appointed by Pope Francis: failure to endorse gay blessings bars entry to the sacred college. Promoted Radcliffe, the pro-lgbt Dominican preacher at the Synod.
Müller: Synodal mea culpas, a litany of woke indoctrination
Abundance of political correctness and devoid of concern for the crisis of faith in Christ: the former Prefect of the Doctrine of the Faith comments on the pre-Synod penitential vigil and points the finger at the bankruptcy curators in cassocks.
Pope challenged by disciples of his own progressive openings
The Belgian theologian Gabriel Ringlet has not digested Pope Francis' “papal” expressions against abortion and reproaches him in the name of the ethics of exceptions. By dint of ‘triggering trials’ now the Pontiff himself is overwhelmed.
To follow Jesus to the cross, perseverance is the way to salvation
Jesus is the one persecuted par excellence because the world struggles to accept his nature and message. The same sort falls to his disciples in every epoca. Yet, the Passion is the way to persevere in the faith and remain in the Church. The causes of the ecclesial crisis and its remedy: Mary. The necessary union of mercy and doctrine. Here is the meditation of Monsignor Nicola Bux, at the Daily Compass Day held on Saturday 28 September.
