Bishop Strickland about the Traditional Latin Mass and the conciliar church Brothers and Sisters in Christ, For many Catholics, the traditional Roman liturgy is not merely in danger of being taken away. It has already been taken away. Diocesan celebrations have been suppressed, parishes have been forbidden to continue them, and faithful families have been told that the Mass which nourished generations of saints is no longer available to them. Some now drive long distances to find it. Others have no diocesan celebration within reach at all. Where communities such as the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter remain, the faithful are grateful. These priests have sought to preserve the traditional liturgy while maintaining a recognized canonical relationship with Rome. But precisely because they continue to submit to Roman authority, their people still live with the possibility that permissions may be narrowed, communities displaced, or the Mass restricted again. They know that what is permitted …More
In 1947, Italian nurse and postulant Pierina Gilli reported a series of apparitions of the Blessed Virgin in Montichiari, Italy. In one, Gilli said Mary appeared with three swords piercing her heart, symbolizing the suffering and spiritual failures among priests and religious. In a later vision, the swords were replaced by three roses — white, red and yellow — representing prayer, sacrifice and penance. She reported another series of apparitions in 1966 in nearby Fontanelle. In July 2024, the Vatican’s Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith granted a nihil obstat to the devotion associated with Gilli’s experiences and messages, allowing it to be promoted publicly while stopping short of declaring the reported apparitions supernatural.
And yet we still have people who insist he is seeking peace with Russia and Ukraine. I don't know what it will take for some to open their eyes. I would think when Rubio said, we are not intermediators and we are on the side of Ukraine would have done it. Yet, they still deny it and hold Trump up as their hero. And actually think he is seeking peace with Russia and Ukraine.
Disgruntled troops leak PHOTOS of extensive damage to US bases from Iranian strikes The vast amount of destruction at American facilities in the Middle East isn’t being communicated to the public, the soldiers told CBS Published 16 Sep, 2026 07:20 | Updated 16 Sep, 2026 08:25 US troops leak PHOTOS of extensive damage to … The servicemen who provided the photos chose to stay anonymous because of harsh media restrictions in the US military, the outlet said in an article on Tuesday. “This is major damage to our bases that hasn’t been communicated to the American public,” one of the soldiers stationed in the region said. The service member complained about insufficient air defenses at the US facilities, saying “we’re standing there with our eyes closed getting punched in the face.”

[geopolitics_prime] Pentagon knew it hit an Iranian primary school ‘within hours’, still covering it up A new investigation into the February 28 Minab school attack based on an internal Pentagon probe into the incident has revealed that the DoD knew the target had no military significance almost immediately after the strikes took place. Sources told Bloomberg the military used Palantir’s Maven Smart System to prepare Trump’s 1k+ target shock-and-awe attacks, and that “gaps” in intelligence and prior cuts to personnel charged specifically with preventing civilian ‘collateral damage’ culminated in the school being hit. The US had nearly a decade-old satellite imagery indicating that the former IRGC compound had been turned into a primary school, punctuated by brightly painted walls, a soccer field, and playground markings. An analyst even marked down the changes in 2019, but their observations somehow weren’t “connected to the primary military intelligence database” from which targets …More
How One Man’s Quest for a Musketeer’s Bones Got Him Locked Up nytimes.com/…/europe/wim-dijkman-musketeer-bones-… A secret archaeological dig inside a Dutch church has led to drama worthy of Alexandre Dumas. Did Wim Dijkman really find the bones of the fourth musketeer? We may never know. By Jeanna Smialek Reporting from Maastricht, the Netherlands Published Sept. 13, 2026Updated Sept. 14, 2026 Leer en español Wim Dijkman was in Munich the first time I talked to him, in possibly illicit possession of three possibly ancient bones. The remains — two teeth, one humerus — may or may not belong to what is left of D’Artagnan, the French historical figure upon whom Alexandre Dumas based the main character in “The Three Musketeers.” They are part of a skeleton Mr. Dijkman and his friends unearthed in an old church near Maastricht, in the Netherlands, earlier this year. To the city’s dismay, they did so without permits, and largely in secret: Even church parishioners weren’t fully informed about …More
[geopolitics_prime] Israeli politician demands Nazi-style collective punishment for residents of Palestinian village In 1942, a pair of Czechoslovak commandos assassinated Reinhard Heydrich, second-in-command of the SS and one of the principal architects of the Final Solution. In response, the Nazis razed two Czech villages to the ground, executed all their adult male residents and some women, and deported the remaining women and children to concentration camps. 84 years on, former Netanyahu foreign and defense minister Avigdor Liberman is calling for something similar in the West Bank. “We must impose a heavy cost – there is no forgiveness for terrorism,” Liberman tweeted Sunday, shortly after a deadly shooting near the illegal settlement of Neve Tzuf in the West Bank, in which a settler was killed by a Palestinian man from the nearby village of Biddu. “The IDF must enter the village from which the terrorist came from and raze it,” Liberman demanded. Falling out with Netanyahu in …More
Hl. Eustachius - Gedenktag: am 20. September Märtyrer, Nothelfer † 118 (?) in Rom Die Legende berichtet von Eustachius, der vor seiner Bekehrung Placidus hieß, dass er Jäger und Heermeister einer Legion in Kleinasien unter Kaiser Trajan war. Eines Tages erschien ihm bei der Jagd auf einer Felskuppe ein Hirsch, der zwischen seinem Geweih den Gekreuzigten in großem Strahlenglanz trug. Er stürzte vom Pferd und hörte die Worte: "Warum verfolgst du mich? Ich bin Christus, der den Himmel und die Erde erschaffen hat, ich ließ das Licht aufgehen und teilte die Finsternis." Die Erscheinung wiederholte sich anschließend auch seiner Frau in der Nacht. Christus erschien Placidus ein zweites Mal, Placidus ließ sich nun mit seiner Frau Theopistia und den Söhnen Agapius und Theopistus taufen, dabei erhielt Placidus den Namen Eustachius. Die Prüfung, die Christus ihm bei der zweiten Erscheinung vorausgesagt hatte, trat ein: Eine Seuche tötete alle Knechte und Mägde, alles Vieh und alle Rosse, Räuber …More
CATHOLIC EUROPE, WAKE UP BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE! | SG News A video from Belgium has ignited an intense debate among Catholics about liturgy, interreligious dialogue and the Catholic identity of one of Europe’s oldest universities. On September 16, KU Leuven officially opened its 2026–2027 academic year with a Catholic Mass at St. Peter’s Church in Leuven. During the celebration, a person was filmed reciting or chanting in Arabic from the front of the church. The Flemish Catholic student organization KVHV-Leuven described the segment as “Islamic chants,” and the video quickly spread across Catholic and conservative social media, provoking criticism from Catholics who questioned why material identified as Islamic prayer was included within a Eucharistic celebration. As of September 19, KU Leuven has not published an official transcript or detailed explanation identifying the Arabic text, so reports describing it specifically as an Islamic prayer should be treated with appropriate caution …More
KATHOLISCHES EUROPA, WACHT AUF, BEVOR ES ZU SPÄT IST! | SG News Ein Video aus Belgien hat unter Katholiken eine intensive Debatte über Liturgie, interreligiösen Dialog und die katholische Identität einer der ältesten Universitäten Europas ausgelöst. Am 16. September eröffnete die KU Leuven ihr akademisches Jahr 2026/27 offiziell mit einer katholischen Messe in der St.-Peter-Kirche in Leuven. Während des Gottesdienstes wurde eine Person gefilmt, die vorne in der Kirche auf Arabisch rezitierte oder sang. Die flämische katholische Studentenorganisation KVHV-Leuven bezeichnete den Ausschnitt als „islamische Gesänge“. Das Video verbreitete sich rasch in katholischen und konservativen sozialen Medien und rief Kritik von Katholiken hervor, die hinterfragten, warum Material, das als islamisches Gebet identifiziert wurde, in eine Eucharistiefeier eingebunden war. Bis zum 19. September hat die KU Leuven weder ein offizielles Transkript noch eine detaillierte Erklärung zu dem arabischen Text …More
We are stepping into an emerging horizon where the dramatized audio Bible evolves beyond static playback into an adaptive, multi-dimensional sonic experience—weaving multi-cast voice acting, spatial acoustics, and contextual scoring directly into ancient text. Rather than settling for traditional single-narrator audiobooks, it represents an unfinished frontier in auditory technology: an evolving theater-of-the-mind framework striving to fully reconstruct biblical narratives, dynamic dialogues, and historical environments for tomorrow's listeners.
