Mont-Saint-Michel Mont-Saint-Michel : Saint Michael's Mount) is a tidal island and mainland commune in Normandy, France. The island lies approximately one kilometre (half a nautical mile) off France's north-western coast, at the mouth of the Couesnon River near Avranches and is 7 hectares (17 acres) in area. The mainland part of the commune is 393 hectares (971 acres) in area so that the total surface of the commune is 400 hectares (990 acres).[4][5] As of 2023, the island has a population of 23. The commune's position—on an island just a few hundred metres from land—made it accessible at low tide to the many pilgrims to its abbey, and defensible as the incoming tide stranded, drove off, or drowned threats on foot. The island remained unconquered during the Hundred Years' War. A small garrison fended off a full attack by the English in 1433.[7]Louis XI recognised the benefits of its natural defence and turned it into a prison. The abbey was used regularly as a prison during the …Àteru

Pope of Applause. Leo XIV received three minutes of thunderous applause after his speech in Metz on September 28, accompanied by emotional orchestral music. He stood, visibly pleased, and nodded. Applause has an old political language: the acclamation of rulers. Leo XIV readily accepts the ritual, in Metz as in the Vatican, several times a day. Pius XII did not invent papal applause, but helped normalize what earlier popes had often regarded with suspicion: the Pope as the object of prolonged public ovation.
He uses the fact that he spoke up in defense of life to wrap with it his heresy of fraternity of religions (aka One world religion). The devils poison is always sugarcoated
"If the fruitfulness of religious traditions is seen above all in their service of peace and fraternity, it is also expressed in their ability to protect, accompany and serve life" Pope Leo XIV at the Conclusion of the Interfaith Meeting in Metz.

Pope Leo XIV spent nearly the entire cruise from Lourdes to Metz in the cockpit of Air France’s A321 — about 30 minutes. Copilot Érik Margueritte says the aviation-minded pope asked numerous questions about the aircraft and its systems. When two French Rafales flew alongside, the crew handed Leo the radio. He spoke directly to the fighter pilots, blessing them and military personnel working to protect people and promote peace worldwide.
All for the show: In the - recorded - cockpit of Air France's Airbus A321, the pope exchanges with the crew during the flight between Lourdes and Metz. An exceptional moment up close with the pilots, between aviation, sharing, and emotion.
Birds of a feather flock together for a relaxed round-table meeting in Metz: Leo XIV sat down with a small group of European leaders and dignitaries — several of whom have rather compromised records on life issues. Around the table were Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron, Prince Albert II and Princess Charlène of Monaco, Grand Duke Guillaume of Luxembourg, Luxembourg PM Luc Frieden, Andorra’s Co-Prince Bishop Josep-Lluís Serrano Pentinat, and former European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker.
À l'issue de l'événement organisé à Metz sous le titre « Aux racines de l'Europe », le Pape a rencontré certaines des personnalités présentes lors d'un entretien privé dans une salle du Palais des Congrès. Dix invités étaient présents, dont les Macron, le prince Albert et Charlène, M. Frieden et M. Juncker.
You would be training your children as all responsible parents do when you are facing the CCCP and the CCP Red menace! Check out how Red China does it! it!youtube.com/watch?v=yYZ2qI3qJu8
And to let you know China is not the only country but most including America, I will leave you a link for New Jersey's Military schools. I know there are Military schools because I wanted to send my older son to one. Military Schools in New Jersey (2026) – … It's to learn discipline! The number one reason why they have these schools around the world. @Jeffrey Ade
You do realize, do you not, that this video is complete horse manure propaganda?!? I cannot say that there are not military training camps for children, there probably are, but they would be specifically for children whose parents hope to get them into good military academies. Nothing like this is either mandatory nor ubiquitous.
Leo XIV "did not want to get involved in French politics". Tonight, on the return flight from Metz to Rome, Pope Leo XIV was asked whether his remarks on euthanasia had crossed the boundary between religion and politics. Leo XIV replied: “I have not crossed that boundary.” When the Church speaks “in defense of life,” it is “not doing politics, but applying the Gospel to people’s lives.” And: “If this is doing politics, I did it; but I certainly did not intend to meddle in French politics. I simply wanted to teach what the Church really believes.”
‘I didn’t want to get involved in French politics, I only wanted to proclaim the gospel.’ That’s what Pope Leo XIV said on Monday evening during the plane interview on the return flight to Rome after his four-day visit to France.
29.09.2026 CARDINAL BURKE MUST CHOOSE VATICAN COUNCIL II FEENEYITE : ALIGN WITH THE ST.BENEDICT CENTER, NH ON VC2 The interpretation of Vatican Council II by the diocese of Manchester in New Hampshire, USA, where the traditionalist St. Benedict Center is located, is Cushingite like that of Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernandez and the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, Vatican. Legally, the diocese and the Vatican are not allowed to confuse what is implicit as being explicit and then coerce all the religious communities and the laity in the idiocies to do the same. With the threat of practical sanctions. The Mayor in New Hampshire must in principle is not allowed to confuse what is invisible as being visible, and consider this normal and the reality among the population. The religious communities which interpret Church documents only irrationally are approved by Bishop Peter Libasci the bishop of Manchester in NH. This is unethical by secular standards.

Leo XIV invokes Europe’s Christian roots in defence of human rights and migration. Pope Leo XIV offered a sweeping account of European civilisation and its future in a September 28 landmark speech at the Robert Schuman Congress Centre in Metz, France. Speaking on “The Roots of Europe for Peace and Unity,” Leo XIV’s argument was, at its deepest level, anthropological: Europe’s future depends upon its understanding of the human person. Leo XIV began with Europe’s Greek, Roman and Christian inheritance, but emphasised that “European civilization is also the fruit of centuries-long encounters.” He specifically cited “the presence of Arab culture in the Iberian Peninsula.” He then turned to the contribution of Benedictine monasticism. After recalling its role in caring for the poor, sick and elderly, as well as in universities, hospitals, medicine, science, architecture, law and political organisation, he declared: “Without this monastic tradition, European civilization as we know it would …Àteru
At a moment in history when relations between nations "are becoming increasingly barbaric," dialogue and multilateralism remain "the best antidote to the desire for domination, which lies at the root of every conflict," Pope Leo XIV said.
On September 26, about 200 faithful of the Society of St. Pius X (FSSPX) made their annual pilgrimage to the Canadian Martyrs’ Shrine in Midland, Ontario. Their published programme scheduled veneration of the relics at the Shrine at 3 p.m. The pilgrims were denied entrance to the church. According to LifeSiteNews.com, this was ordered by the Archdiocese of Toronto. The FSSPX has made this pilgrimage for years. In September 2025, more than 500 FSSPX pilgrims attended. In contrast to the denial of entry to the FSSPX pilgrims, in July 2026 the Archdiocese of Toronto advertised the annual Tamil pilgrimage at the same Shrine. Its announcement invited “Tamil Catholics and other Tamil-speaking devotees” to a programme including Rosary, Eucharist and Adoration, concluding: “All Are Welcome!” Picture: LifeSiteNews.com, #newsDemzixxpwy
