“The multiplication of the loaves and fishes occurred during the sharing; that is the miracle,” said Pope Leo XIV in his homily at the Japoma Stadium in Douala, Cameroon, on 17 April, which was attended by around 120,000 people. He continued: ‘There is bread for everyone if it is given to everyone. There is bread for everyone if it is taken not with a snatching hand, but with a giving hand.” Common heresy in the Francis era Here, Leo XIV reflects an idea that Pope Francis has returned to several times: that the multiplication of the loaves is not about a supernatural increase in food, but a transformation of human hearts that leads to sharing. During the Angelus on 26 July 2015, Francis said that 'the miracle does not consist in the multiplication itself, but in the sharing'. At the Angelus on 29 July 2018, and in various weekday homilies at Santa Marta, Francis reiterated that the true sign is not a miracle, but a change in attitude; the crowd learns to share. On 25 July 2021, Francis …Zaidi
The second disastrous papacy! This nonsense has been around for a long time. I've heard it many times before over the years, and of course the Francis also spouted this nonsense. It is the age old heresy of debunking the Divinity of our Lord Jesus Christ and the dumbing-down of the Catholic Faith - I mean we really don't want to offend anyone now do we, especially our muslim "brothers". Popes, bishops and priests and others who preach and teach this nonsense simply do not believe that Jesus Christ is God Incarnate, the Eternal Word made flesh for us and for our salvation. That is why you will never hear them explicitly preach about the Person and Mystery of our Lord Jesus Christ. Like this pope, he speaks about "peace" but never about the source of the reconciling Peace that only the Prince of Peace can and does give when repentance, conversion, forgiveness and reconciliation with God through the Blood of the Cross of the Prince of Peace is preached and given. Personally, I am dead tired …Zaidi
As part of Milan Art Week, an exhibition on homosexuality titled “Ritratto di famiglie” opened on April 14 at a public library in Milan. It purports to present “family stories” through photos and personal messages, but actually features homosexuals. The event includes workshops for children aged 5 to 10. The organization Pro Vita & Famiglia described the initiative as “ideological propaganda.”
L'orrore ideologico di minoranze usate come grimaldello politico e imposte ai bambini nelle scuole.

On April 16, during the visit of Pope Leo XIV to Bamenda, Cameroon, Fon Fru Asaah Angwafor IV, the tribal leader of the Mankon community, spoke about polygamy. He made the remarks during an interreligious peace meeting in the cathedral. He is the hereditary "king" of the Mankon people and rules over culture and spiritual tradition. He presides over pagan rites, such as important funerals and ancestral ceremonies. During these events, he wears ceremonial attire alongside elders. He also identifies as 'Catholic'. In his speech at the cathedral, the tribal leader stated that 'some cultural practices continue to pose challenges' and cited polygamy as an example. He expressed gratitude that, within the framework of the 2023 and 2024 Synod, African bishops had been tasked with conducting a study on polygamy and its place in the life of the Church. The tribal chief went on to say that adulterers in polygamous relationships should be able to fully integrate into the Church without being 'judged …Zaidi
Prevost refused to defend Catholic moral doctrine against the advocate of polygamy, the pagan apostate Fon Fru Asaah Angwafor IV. Prevost said nothing against this frontal assault on faith, but he did use his speech to launch a political weapon: “ Jesus told us: Blessed are the peacemakers! But woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic or political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth.”

Mnamo tarehe 19 mwezi wa Machi mwaka wa 1949, Mtawa Lúcia dos Santos, mmoja wa waliomwona Bikira Maria huko Fatima, aliandika barua kwa mwanahistoria wa Kanisa la Ujerumani, Padre Ludwig Fischer (1890-1975), mtetezi hodari wa Fatima, kulingana na taarifa za Kirchliche Umschau. Mtawa Lúcia alimwandikia kuwa Ujerumani "itarudi kwenye makao ya kondoo ya Bwana" lakini "wakati huu unawadiaa polepole sana, na kuchukua juhudi nyingi, ila hatimaye utafika, nazo roho za Yesu na Maria kisha zitatawala kwa fahari. Siku hiyo hiyo Mtawa Lucia alimjulisha mtububwake, Ladre José Bernardo Gonçalves S.J. (1894-1967), kuwa alikua kamwandiki Fischer kuhusu "ahadi" aliyokuwa ameipokea katika ono ambalo halikuwa na tarehe alipokuwa akisali mbele ya Sakramenti takatifu. Aliskia moyoni mwake, "Ujerumani itarejea kwenye kundi langu, lakini wakati huu unawadia polepole sana. Unawadia - hilo ninkweli - lakini polepole, polepole sana.

"3. And this first night pertains to beginners, occurring at the time when God begins to bring them into the state of contemplation; in this night the spirit likewise has a part, as we shall say in due course. And the second night, or purification, pertains to those who are already proficient, occurring at the time when God desires to bring them to the state of union with God. And this latter night is a more obscure and dark and terrible purgation, as we shall say afterwards."

Just war not ‘a blank check for violence’ and pope is ‘guardian of conscience,’ says bishop (OSV News) — On April 15, Auxiliary Bishop James Massa of Brooklyn, chair of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Committee on Doctrine, issued a statement clarifying the Catholic Church’s teaching on just war. The statement came as President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance and other Trump administration officials have publicly challenged Pope Leo XIV’s calls for peace amid the U.S.-Israel war on Iran and other conflicts. OSV News spoke at length with Bishop Massa regarding just war doctrine.
Obispos estadounidenses explican la teoría de la guerra justa a JD Vance El episcopado estadounidense ha salido al paso del vicepresidente JD Vance después de que este pidiera públicamente al Papa León XIV «tener cuidado» al hablar de teología. El obispo James Massa, presidente del Comité de Doctrina de la Conferencia Episcopal de Estados Unidos, ha emitido un comunicado que aclara el sentido de la enseñanza tradicional de la Iglesia sobre la guerra justa y reafirma la autoridad magisterial del Romano Pontífice cuando se dirige a la Iglesia universal. hmtv
Just war not ‘a blank check for violence’ and … OSV News: Based on recent comments from Pope Leo XIV and various bishops, is it fair to say the Catholic Church’s teaching on just war doctrine is at heart a call for peace? Bishop James Massa: Absolutely. Just war theory is always meant to make war, the legitimate use of force, a last resort defense of people. When an aggressor has caused some grave, lasting, certain harm, and then when all other options have failed — peaceful options, negotiations, diplomacy, etc. — and when there’s a real chance of success, those are the criteria. And that’s called “jus ad velum,” Latin for “just reasons for going to war.” And then the other big condition that’s very important is that the fighting and the actual use of force will not cause worse evils than the harm you’re trying to stop. So clearly, going back to St. Augustine and his teacher St. Ambrose, and St. Thomas Aquinas, who brings it to another level — just war theory is never a blank …Zaidi
Taasisi Ya Upapa ya Ndoa na Familia, ya Roma, iliyoanzishwa na John Paul II kulinda kutoangamizwa kwa ndoa za Kikristo na kupigana na uavyaji, imefutiliwa mbali katika hali yake ya sasa na Papa Francis kupitia kwa barua yake ya hivi maajuzi al maarufu motu propio. Taasisi hiyo sasa itakuwa ikiitwa "John Paul II Pontifical Theological Institute for Marriage and Family Sciences". Taasisi hiyo ilikumbwa na adhabu ya Francis kwa sababu ya ilivyolinda mafundisho ya Kikatoliki wakati wa Sinodi la Familia, ingawaje Francis aliitenga taasisi hiyo na kazi za Sinodi hilo. Sasa, Francis angetaka taasisi hiyo ieneze nakala yake tatanishi ya Amoris Laetitia ambayo hupuuza kutoangamizwa kwa ndoa za Kikristo. Pia jambo hili limechukuliwa kama pigo kuu dhidi ya John Paul II. Kulingana na mpango usioeleweka vyema, motu propio haswa inafutilia mbali mafundisho ya Kikatoliki na kazi ya uchungaji kama "utaratibu na mifumo ya kale", kisingizio cha kawaida cha kutupilia mbali nafasi ya wapinzani bila kutoa …Zaidi
AMBIENCES, CUSTOMS, CIVILIZATIONS -“Catolicismo” Nº 92 – August 1958 (*) by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira For centuries, the placid canal waters of Ghent [**], have mirrored the facades of these typical medieval and Renaissance buildings, whose imposing mass, grave and solid, contrasts harmoniously with their rich, varied, and almost fanciful ornamentation, thus creating a singular impression of architectonic balance. What were these buildings, so reserved and one would almost say pensive, originally used for? Patrician residences? Centers of study? No. They were occupied by corporations. The main offices of the Corporation of Free Boatmen were on the far right; next was the house of the Grain Measurers, adjoining the small customs house, where the medieval merchants declared their goods. Then came the Granary, and, lastly, the Corporation of Stoneworkers. These were, then, houses of work and business, and history tells us that intensive and productive activities took place within them. …Zaidi
"THE venerable Benedict being one day in his cell, the boy Placidus, one of his religious* went out to fetch water from the lake, but when dipping his pitcher into the water, not taking sufficient heed, his body followed the vase and he fell into the lake. The waves immediately bore him out from the land as far as the usual flight of an arrow. The saint, who was in his cell, knew the sad accident at the very instant, and at once calling Maurus, his disciple, said to him: ''Brother Maurus, run with all speed ; the boy who went to fetch water fell into the lake and has been already carried out a long distance."
