The open letter from Dutch bishop Mutsaerts is the latest initiative to call on Pope Francis to halt the numerous reckless moves by bishops who, under the pretext of synodality, are distorting Catholic doctrine. The fundamental question that must be answered is: what is the Church?
The Assumption of Mary, a sign of the triumph of the new Eve
In the papal bull containing the solemn dogmatic definition of the Assumption of Mary into Heaven, body and soul, Pius XII explains that this truth is linked to the unique decree of predestination by which the Blessed Virgin is the 'Partner of the Divine Redeemer', the new Eve. Together, they triumphed over sin and death; together they reign in glory.
‘An invasion is taking place in Ceuta, and Catholics will bear the brunt of it.’
‘Spain is facing an invasion, and it is the Catholics who are bearing the brunt of it because religious persecution is intensifying.’ The Daily Compass interviews Polonia Castellanos, president of Christian Lawyers. ‘Sánchez is responsible. He needs millions of North African voters to prop up his corrupt government. And we Christians are already paying the price.'
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.
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. He himself explained this in Milan in 2024 during a discussion with the Grand Masters of the three Italian lodges.
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. Without any checks or explanations, he authorised the funeral in Rome, forcing the Secretariat of State and the Pope’s Vicar to rectify his oversight. The news has even disappeared from the Freemasons’ website.
Trump’s foreign aid: to Christian organisations, not to ‘woke’ NGOs
Lefebvre and the refusal to submit to the reigning Pope
For the founder of the Society of St Pius X, St John Paul II was not a Catholic. Lefebvre theorised about communion with past popes whilst effectively disobeying the current one. This is by no means a Catholic theory because only the reigning pope holds the power of the keys.
UK: Judge gives go-ahead for transgender child trials
The High Court has dismissed the appeal lodged by the parents of gender-confused children and detransitioner Keira Bell. They were seeking to halt research into the use of puberty-blocking drugs. The trial, which is due to start on 1 August, involves recruiting 226 participants aged between 11 and 16. A human trial with foreseeable harms.
Here's why the Lefebvrian case merits attention
Many wonder why we devote so much space to the Lefebvrian issue when there are various other problems within the Church. Two aspects are worth highlighting: the nature of the Church and the danger posed by a schism, and the gravity of the Fraternity’s positions and Lefebvre’s judgement of Saint John Paul II.
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.
