China–Écône: who is forcing regularisation and who is rejecting it?
Why not recognise the bishops of the Fraternity in the same way as those imposed by Beijing? The latter, in effect, invite themselves into communion with Rome, whilst the former exclude themselves from it in order to operate independently. The Chinese government’s appointments remain questionable, but they do not justify the Lefebvrian schism.
Gender and new rights: Sarah denounces the EU’s blackmail of Africa
Invited by the ECR Group in the European Parliament, the cardinal does not mince his words; on the contrary, he exposes the distorted use of such language to convey and impose – even outside Europe – an anthropological vision that runs counter to faith and reason, one that has been artificially created in the ‘corridors of Brussels’.

US, 250 years of independence, it was not a revolution
On 4 July 1776, a new nation was born, free from British taxes and European turmoil. This event was radically different from the project to reshape man and society in France. This American advantage was gradually eroded from 1968 onwards.
The Vendean genocide debunks the myth of the French Revolution
An interview with the French historian who brought to light the horrors unleashed in revolutionary France against the people of the Vendée, who were guilty of having risen up against the new rulers. It was renamed ‘Avenged’ following the repression. And then forgotten.
Müller: ‘A de facto heresy on the part of the FSSPX’
The schism within the Society of St. Pius X is taking place. Interview with Cardinal Müller: “I ask for a theological response to the errors that constitute heresy in practice”; “Welcome those who leave”; “Abolishing Ecclesia Dei was a mistake”; “There is ideology in Traditionis custodes; tradition needs pastoral care.”
The Lefebvrians reject the Pope’s appeal and opt for schism
Father Pagliarani’s reply to Leo XIV confirms the stonewalling of any proposal from the Holy See. There is no backing down; on the contrary, the Pope is invited to take time to reflect, with only one possible outcome: Rome should approve whatever is decided in Menzingen.
