The agency KNA notes that Leo XIV's thinking was shaped by the ideas and terminology of Latin American liberation theology, referring to an address he delivered on 2 March 2002 in Iquitos, Peru. This text has been published in a book released today, which contains essays, sermons and speeches from the years 2001 to 2013. Key quotes from Fr Robert Prevost: - The reality of unjust poverty and marginalisation is one of the most pressing problems in today's world, not only in the "Third World". - No one can be a Christian today and remain detached from the "cry of the poor" and the struggle for justice. The destitution of millions of people is a true 'sacrament' of sin in the world. - Development is an integral part of evangelisation. Pastoral activity goes beyond what is merely "religious", in accordance with the Church's social teaching and the urgency of the preferential option for the poor.' This must be applied not only to indigenous peoples, who are often the poorest of the poor, but …ច្រើន

His thought—beginning with his book *A Theology of Liberation*—came under scrutiny, even in the United States; yet, when I was teaching in Chicago, I offered courses on this theological perspective, and …ច្រើន
- Legionário, No. 329, January 1, 1939 - by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira The year 1938 has drawn to a close and now belongs to the realm of history. It is too early to pass definitively detailed judgments on the dramatic events that marked it. However, its general outlines can already be assessed, and this retrospective is of evident use to us, as we prepare, filled with apprehensions and hopes, to laboriously live through 1939. _____________________* * *__________________________ On the threshold of 1938, humanity was divided into four major ideological camps: Catholicism, liberalism, communism, and Nazism. Of course, there were intermediate tendencies between these four cardinal points of contemporary thought. However, in addition to being intermediate, these tendencies were provisional by their very nature. They represented merely a stage in the intellectual evolution toward one of those four clear and definitive positions. And for this very reason, they played a secondary role in the …ច្រើន
Christians of all denominations now make up less than two per cent of the population of the Holy Land, Benedictine Abbot Nikodemus Schnabel told Aid to the Church in Need on 29 April. “My concern is that the Holy Land could become a kind of Christian Disneyland,” he said. He warned that while the holy sites may remain, the region could lose its indigenous Christian communities, leaving places central to Christianity without ordinary Christian family life. He said that economic hardship was a major driver of emigration and noted that many local Christians depended on tourism, which had struggled since 2019 due to the pandemic and regional conflict. “People are leaving because they see no future,” he said. #newsPgoaemvkjx

The diocesan representatives who will be speaking at the meeting include Monsignor Marco Valenti, auxiliary bishop of the Northern Sector; Monsignor Marco Gnavi, head of the Office for Ecumenism …

His feast day is May 4. St. Florian is also the patron of Upper Austria, jointly with Saint Leopold.

Staff Writer May 4, 2026 News Two years after the Archdiocese of Los Angeles reached an $880 million settlement with men and women who survived childhood sexual abuse at the hands of Roman Catholic priests and clergy in their diocese, the Catholic Archdiocese of New York is following suit, agreeing to pay more than $800 million to its own sexual abuse survivors. So far, the Catholic Church has paid out more than $5 billion in settlements, which has bankrupted at least 19 dioceses. The archdiocese has been planning this for a while. Along with selling off buildings and laying off staff, including the sale of their New York headquarters for $100 million, the Archdiocese is suing its insurance company, Chubb. The archdiocese claims that “even though we have paid them over $2 billion in premiums by today’s standards, [Chubb] is now attempting to evade their legal and moral contractual obligation to settle covered claims which would bring peace and healing to victim-survivors.” Chubb …
"The surety of good men and blessed men hath always been in meekness and dread of God. And though such blessed men shined in all virtue, yet they were not therefore lifted up into pride, but were therefore the more diligent in the service of God, and the more meek in all their doings."
[Thomas a Kempis – XIV-XV Century AD; Kempen, Holy Roman Empire/Zwolle, Holy Roman Empire; aged 90-91; Canon, Regular] 20. OF THE LOVE OF LONELINESS AND SILENCE. SEEK for a convenient time to search thine own conscience, and think oft on the benefits of God. Leave off all curious things, and read such matters as shall stir thee to compunction of heart for thy sins, rather than read only for occupying of the time. If thou wilt withdraw thyself from superfluous words, and from unprofitable runnings about, and from the hearing of rumours and vain tales, thou shalt find time convenient to be occupied in holy meditations. The most holy men and women that ever were fled the company of worldly-living men with all their power, and chose to serve God in secret of their heart. One holy man said : As oft as I have been among worldly company, I have departed with less fervour of spirit than I came. And this we know well when we talk long : for it is not so hard to keep always silence, as it is not …ច្រើន
The 7:30 a.m. Roman Rite Mass at St Mary's Cathedral in Austin, Texas, will be cancelled as of 19 March, according to the Facebook user Domus Dei. The Mass will continue for the time being at three other locations in the diocese: Dripping Springs, Brenham and Waco. It is 23.1 miles (37 km) from Austin to Dripping Springs, 89.9 miles (145km) to Brenham and 103.8 miles (167km) to Waco. The number of faithful at the Mass was large. Prolife activist Abby Johnson had recently begun attending Mass there. Bishop Joe Steve Vásquez of Austin, 66, was appointed by Benedict XVI in 2010. He took over as apostolic administrator of Tyler in November after Francis unjustly removed the Confessor Bishop Joseph Strickland. #newsWvrxpkxpwb
Maybe I'm taking a different perspective being a Texan, but this Ratzinger bishop may have out Jesuited the Ole tradition hating Jesuit in Rome by closing the TLM in Austin and opening up 3 new locations. He may have done a survey on where most of the Latin mass attendees resided and placed them in these locations, making it easier and more accessible. So, now we have 3 new TLM's, Dripping Springs, Brenham, and Waco!
Awarding of doctoral degrees by Sorbonne Universities on May 14, 2011. CamilleStromboni, CC BY 2.0, via Wikimedia Commons It is no longer a secret that universities have become one of the arenas where some of today’s fiercest ideological battles are being fought: research and knowledge are being subjected to the dictates of wokeism, in defiance of academic freedom—a glorious European legacy dating back centuries. In France, the phenomenon has reached such proportions that lecturers are forced to organise themselves to fight against what sometimes takes the form of relentless harassment. In many French universities, a climate of intellectual terror prevails that is not—minus the physical elimination—unlike the “terrorism without the gulag,” to use the phrase of the Quebec intellectual Mathieu Bock-Côté during the heyday of the Soviet Union. Some professors and researchers, hounded for non-conformist views and for the content of their courses deemed controversial, find themselves …
Legal immigration is facilitated with a sponsor who guarantees the immigrant and his/her family can and will support themselves. If the immigrant and/or family take ANY public assistance, they are deported and the sponsor must pay it ALL back. The illegals come in as trespassers, go on public assistance with free food, free medical care, free housing, instant loans to start businesses and buy houses, etc., etc., etc. Our own poor and homeless do NOT get such benefits. When illegals are deported, they will just take what they can with them. Instead, they should be made to pay back everything they received and bought with public assistance. Then, we could give that to our own citizens -- NOT anchor babies or illegals given free citizenship -- who are poor or homeless. "But if any man have not care of his own, and especially of those of his house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel." [1 Timothy 5:8]
