Bishop imposes gender ideology in Catholic schools: families outraged, Vatican remains silent
It’s happening in Hamburg: ultra-progressive Bishop Hesse, a champion of German synodality, is forcing gender-based sex education courses on Catholic schools, despite parents' objections. They have appealed to the Pope and the Congregation for Bishops. But they have been waiting six months for a response that has not arrived. The courses are due to begin on 20 August.
Taybeh, where last remaining Christians are held hostage by security measures
In Taybeh, the last entirely Christian village in the West Bank on the outskirts of Ramallah, security is once again in danger of becoming a pretext for new restrictions. Pizzaballa’s appeal is not enough to halt the exodus.
Funeral exposes dangerous relations between Church and Freemasons
The fact that recognised Freemasons are requesting Catholic funerals is no coincidence. There is a push from the lodges to recognise dual membership, and Monsignor Staglianò is the key figure within the Church for this shift.

Following the Daily Compass' exclusive, everyone is pouncing on the two cancelled Freemason funerals in Italy. However, while the Bishop of Sanremo is being criticised by the media and Freemasonry, whereas Bishop Staglianò’s ‘mess up’ is ignored.

The news has even disappeared from the Freemasons’ website.

How many missiles does the US have left? “As many as we want,” says Trump. 'In reality, stocks are running low,' say the experts. This explains the president’s wavering stance.
In the principality, whose capital is Vaduz, centre-left and feminist groups have collected signatures for a referendum on the legalisation of abortion. However, the Crown Prince and Regent has made it clear that he will veto the measure should the referendum pass. This is an example of a sovereign exercising power for the common good.

The Oasis of Medjugorje and the Desert of Satan
The matter of the desecrations in Medjugorje cannot be considered closed because wherever God manifests himself, the devil also plays his part in thwarting Heaven's plans. It is no coincidence that these events took place in the run-up to the Youth Festival, which Our Lady has addressed on multiple occasions with words of salvation.
Mauro Marabini, a champion of Italian genius
Entrepreneur, publisher, cultural patron and promoter of Italian culture abroad. Mauro Marabini, who passed away on Monday in the Principality of Monaco, was all this and more. But above all, he was a great friend of the Daily Compass.
Maaloula: the nightmare of the jihadists’ return, thirteen years after the martyrdom
Maaloula, an ancient Christian village in the Syrian mountains, was occupied by jihadists between 2013 and 2014. Now that the jihadists are in power across the country, the population is reliving the nightmare of the massacres and abductions of that time. Father Fadi’s account.
