Francisco votó al cardenal Ratzinger en el cónclave de 2005 como "Papa de transición", según afirma en el libro-entrevista "El Sucesor", que se publicará el 3 de abril. El diario español ABC publicó extractos el 31 de marzo. Francisco dijo que fue "utilizado" por otros cardenales que intentaron bloquear la elección de Ratzinger. Aunque los cardenales juran mantener un estricto secreto sobre todo lo relacionado con la elección, tanto durante como después del cónclave, se informó con credibilidad de que Bergoglio quedó segundo en la votación final. Ahora Francisco es uno de los que rompen su juramento. Charló de que un grupo de cardenales había llevado a cabo una "maniobra en toda regla" al proponer su nombre "para bloquear la elección de Ratzinger y negociar después por otro tercer candidato". Dijo que había obtenido 40 de los 115 votos de los cardenales electores en la Capilla Sixtina, "suficientes para detener la candidatura del cardenal Joseph Ratzinger, porque si hubieran …Zvimwe
je to originální maďarský virtuoz, chápu, je svůj, ale vytrvale tvoří a skládá a mně se to moc líbí, jemu musíte přijít na chuť, jeho hloubka vás zasáhne, pokud posloucháte srdcem !
Mind you this is only one of many posted by various people on twitter several years ago and yt. In one post they were asking who would they like to see as President. There were 4 or 5 people listed. Putin came out to 89% or more. I didn't save that one unfortunately. For some reason just this one. That 2% is the dangerous ones who spread propaganda about the man I'm thinking. Such a small %. But they can do much harm if people don't know anything about President Putin. GTV took down another post I tried to put up. I don't know why.
The German bishops have accepted on February 24 the statutes for the future ‘Synodal Conference’ at its plenary meeting in Würzburg. The statutes go now to the Vatican for approval before the body will be established. Bishop Georg Bätzing of Limburg has repeatedly emphasized that Archbishop Filippo Iannone, Prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops, has received the text informally months ago. Shared Decision-Making Between Bishops and Laity The Synodal Conference is a permanent national body responsible for deciding on nationwide Church issues and thus gaining power over individual bishops. According to the adopted statutes, the Synodal Conference "deliberates and adopts resolutions in accordance with 'synodal decision-making processes' on significant ecclesiastical matters of supra-diocesan importance". Current plans for the "Synodal Conference" want to include 27 diocesan bishops, 27 lay members, and 27 further elected representatives. If approved by Leo XIV, the Synodal Conference will …Zvimwe
“My daughter, how much light, how much glory did my Humanity have in my Resurrection, because during the course of my Life on this earth I did nothing but enclose the Supreme Will in each one of my acts, breaths, gazes - in everything. And as I kept enclosing It, the Divine Volition prepared for Me glory and light in my Resurrection. And since I contain the immense sea of the light of my Will within Me, it is no wonder if, as I look, as I speak, as I move, so much light comes out of Me as to be able to give light to all. Therefore, I want to chain you and overwhelm you in this light in order to sow in you as many seeds of resurrection for as many acts as you keep doing in my Will. My Will alone makes soul and body rise again to glory. My Will is seed of resurrection to grace, seed of resurrection to the highest and perfect sanctity, seed of resurrection to glory. So, as the soul emits her acts in my Will, she keeps binding new divine light, because my Will is light by nature, and one …Zvimwe
A rare medieval survivor in the City of London A rare medieval survivor in the City of London: St Olave’s Hart Street. It survived the Great Fire of London, was for many years the parish church of 17th diarist Samuel Pepys, was dubbed ‘St Ghastly Grim’ by Charles Dickens because of the entranceway to its churchyard and it is still going strong today. It is incredible how much history you can find tucked away amongst the skyscrapers in the City #London#londonhistory#church#churchhistory
Cardinal Walter Brandmüller, 97, appeals on Diakonos.be (February 24) to find a rite of the Mass that finally corresponds to Vatican II. His main points, shortened for readability. - It was not Sacrosanctum Concilium of Vatican II, but the post-conciliar implementation that opened a rift in much of the Catholic world. - One must ask why Paul VI’s reforms was perceived as a break with tradition. - The consequences were grave: arbitrariness and unbridled individualism replaced the Mass with personal compositions, even in ring binders. - The result was liturgical chaos and an unprecedented exodus from the Church that continues today. - Paul VI’s reform of the missal, though not without flaws, faced criticism that, while often understandable, was not justified. - The “Novus Ordo,” promulgated by the pope, had to be accepted in obedience despite legitimate criticism. - If Christ’s obedience unto death is made present in the Eucharist, it cannot be celebrated in disobedience. - For some, …Zvimwe
No Pope has the authority to change the Traditions of the Church. The TLM is clearly part of the Tradition of the Church, and was codified by the dogmatic Council of Trent. Furthermore, the Novus Ordo isn’t from Vatican II, but was concocted after VII by a masonic archbishop and six protestant ministers. The Novus Ordo was rejected in 1967 by the college of Cardinals. Additionally, the Novus Ordo contains practices that are forbidden by the Church but were allowed to continue under “indults” that were granted once the abuses became widespread. Finally, any priest who has faculties to offer Mass in the diocese can offer the TLM for a group of Catholics. No special or additional permission is needed. No Pope, bishop, Monsignor or any other prelate of the Church can forbid the Mass. The Mass is the most important expression of Christ’s presence on Earth. The faithful have a right to the Mass and the priest has a duty to provide it.
The Epstein files indicate hundreds of crimes were committed, mostly sexual in nature. The perpetrators need to be arrested and held accountable. So far only two have been arrested and none are American. I can think of 15 off the top of my head. God Bless Thomas Massie for his efforts in transparency.
The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops has ended its lawsuit against the Trump administration over the suspension of a long-running refugee resettlement contract, with monies owed to the USCCB now recovered. Court records show that Judge Trevor N. McFadden of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia signed a Jan. 23 order dismissing the case “without prejudice” — allowing the USCCB the option to bring a subsequent suit on the same grounds. The USCCB had filed a Jan. 22 notice of voluntary dismissal, stating that “no defendant has filed either an answer or a motion for summary judgment in this action.” Chieko Noguchi, spokesperson for the USCCB, confirmed to OSV News Feb. 24 that the conference had recovered what it was owed for its refugee resettlement work with the federal government.
