On the Feast of the Martyrs of Compiegne
The French Revolution did not finally destroy the Carmel of Compiègne but the post-Conciliar years did
Closure of the Compiègne Carmel: The end of four centuries of presence The six Carmelite nuns residing in Jonquières, near Compiègne, have decided to close their community, bringing an end to nearly four centuries of Carmelite presence in the diocese, the diocese announced in late April. It is sad news for the faithful, yet a legacy and a hope remain. This is a sad consequence of the lack of religious vocations. On April 21, Bishop Jacques Benoit-Gonnin of Beauvais, Noyon, and Senlis announced the closure of the Compiègne Carmelite community, which has been based in Jonquières since 1992. "With advancing age, dwindling numbers, a lack of new vocations, and the impossibility of finding reinforcements from outside, our Carmelite Sisters of Compiègne have decided to close their community," the bishop stated. Six nuns remain there today; their departure will take place gradually over the coming months. The Carmel of the Annunciation—founded in Compiègne in 1641 and living according to the …

Vatican media publishes article dismissing the realities of original sin and the devil
It is not found in Genesis—at the root of a misunderstanding The serpent, the woman and the fruit. And Satan? When reading the opening pages of the Bible, a question inevitably arises: how does the Garden of Eden—where God placed the human being "to cultivate and care for it" (Genesis 2:15)—transform from a place of delight into an abyss of despair (Genesis 3:24)? Article by Marinella Perroni, a theologian The story’s protagonists are well known to all: a serpent—the animal desert nomads considered the most insidious; a woman—whom God created because it was not good for man to be alone; and a fruit—not an apple, but the fruit of a garden where every tree was "pleasing to the eye and good for food" (Genesis 2:9). The message is clear: treachery inhabits the garden of life just as much as wonder and abundance; for this very reason, Eden serves as a primal metaphor for life—for its beauty, yet also for its tragic contradictions. Thus, in just a few strokes, one of antiquity’s most poignant …
Just read this feminist crap piece which states that Eve was 'courageous' in debating God's limitations. Oh, and Genesis is a "myth" that has been used to sexually oppress women through the centuries.

Bishop of Liège sends blessing to new SSPX priest from Liège
Man from Liège ordained priest by the Society of Saint Pius X: Bishop Delville responds Father Vincent Richter, originally from Steffeshausen (Diocese of Liège), during his priestly ordination ceremony at the Society of Saint Pius X's international seminary in Écône (Valais, Switzerland) on June 29, 2026—the Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul. A young man from Steffeshausen, in the Diocese of Liège, was ordained a priest for the Society of Saint Pius X (SSPX) in Écône, Switzerland, on June 29. His bishop, Monsignor Jean-Pierre Delville, is responding with prayer and dialogue, at a time when the episcopal consecrations scheduled for July 1 are deepening the rift with Rome. Behind Saint Lambert, patron of the city The Bishop responded furiously when modernists were stupid enough to reveal their agenda to destroy the priesthood SSPX ≠ FSSP – The Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter (FSSP) also celebrates the old rite (in Herstal and Verviers) but accepts the Council. Vincent Richter, a native …
"Bishop Jean-Pierre Delville stated that he had been informed of Fr Richter’s ordination in Écône and assured him of his prayers...His hope, he said, was that the newly ordained priest would carry out that mission “as an authentic disciple of the Gospel”."
Biskup z Liège popraje novému kňazovi FSSPX všetko najlepšie: Biskup Jean-Pierre Delville z Liège v Belgicku zaželal otcovi Vincentovi Richterovi, vysvätenému 29. júna v Écône za Kňazské bratstvo svätého Pia X., všetko dobré v jeho budúcej misii v Brazílii a vyzval ho, aby slúžil Kristovi „ako autentický učeník evanjelia“. Po štyroch biskupských vysväteniach FSSPX, ktoré sa uskutočnili 1. júla bez pápežského poverenia, bol jeho tón ráznejší; opísal ich ako prehlbovanie oddelenia Spoločenstva od Ríma, pričom však naďalej vyzýval k pokračovaniu dialógu.

Despite SSPX excommunication: Fraternity of St. Peter does not expect influx
Despite SSPX excommunication: Fraternity of St. Peter does not expect influx Unlike the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X, the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter is part of the Church. Here is how it views the schism. Following the break between the traditionalist Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X (FSSPX) and the Pope, the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter (FSSP) does not anticipate a significant influx of new members. "One would naturally hope that some will not follow the path into schism," Father Sven Leo Conrad, President of the FSSP’s Academic Council, told katholisch.de. "But I fear the social 'bubble' is already too entrenched." The members of the Pius Fraternity reject key church reforms from the Second Vatican Council (1962–1965). They oppose the recognition of religious freedom and ecumenical dialogue with other churches. Furthermore, they insist on the 1962 liturgy. Last week, the SSPX carried out episcopal ordinations—actions expressly forbidden by the Vatican. This resulted in …
The priests of the Fraternity of St. Peter are in full communion with the apostate, homosexual, synodal sect that, in defiance of God, promotes sodomy and adultery (against morality) and false religions (against the Faith).
Apostate Robert Prevost aka Pope Leo appoints German bishop who endorsed homosexual ‘blessings,’ claimed sodomy ‘not sinful’ - LifeSite
What is deeply tragic is the case of priests unfaithful to Christ who prefer to remain in a cage—in full communion with the apostate Prevost and the homosexual Tucho, who defies God and the Church—while deluding themselves into believing they will be saved simply because they are united with an apostate masquerading as Pope.

"Religious Sisters for Human Dignity" protest Vatican ban on lay and female preaching
"Religious Sisters for Human Dignity" protest Vatican ban on lay and female preaching The ban on lay preaching continues to be a subject of debate within the Church in Germany. Now, a group of religious sisters has spoken out, asserting that the Risen Christ can be proclaimed by women just as effectively as by men. A group of religious sisters has criticized the Vatican's ban on lay preaching. "We are religious sisters; we celebrate the Liturgy of the Hours, liturgical feasts, the Eucharist, and Eucharistic adoration; we live by the Holy Scriptures and orient our entire lives according to the Gospel," states a declaration by the group "Religious Sisters for Human Dignity" (issued Monday). Many religious sisters are theologians and hospital chaplains, lead retreats and days of reflection, or provide spiritual accompaniment to others. "Yet when it comes to the very source and summit of our spiritual lives, we are required to remain silent and listen." The sisters criticized the fact that …

Cardinal still hoping for Reconciliation with the Society of St. Pius X Excommunication is not a definitive break
Cardinal Koch: Still hoping for reconciliation with the Society of St. Pius X Excommunication is not a definitive break: Following the controversial episcopal ordinations by the Society of St. Pius X, Cardinal Kurt Koch calls for self-criticism and dialogue. He explains why he believes the conflict can be resolved in the long term. Cardinal Kurt Koch views the recent episcopal ordinations by the Society of St. Pius X with composure. Furthermore, he believes the final word has not yet been spoken regarding their rift with the Catholic Church. In the latest episode of the *Communio* magazine podcast, Koch stated that excommunication serves as an invitation to repentance, enabling a return to the fold. He expressed hope that it would be possible to resume talks in the future "so that they might find their way back into the Catholic Church." In the Catholic Church, excommunication signifies exclusion from the ecclesial community. Koch explained that, historically, schisms often followed …
Even "excommunicated" the SSPX news site will still be the one of best Catholic perspectives out there.
French bishops very consciously accepted the principles of the Revolution in the 19th century. Vatican II can be seen as the revenge of the successors of the French minority bishops over Papal Infallibility at Vatican II
Modernist accuses SSPX of having the wrong idea of tradition
All attempts at dialogue have failed: The Society of St. Pius X is heading toward schism. In an interview with katholisch.de, Viennese dogmatic theologian Jan-Heiner Tück explains the roots of the dispute surrounding the Second Vatican Council. Click on the link on the left to see other statements from Professor Tück. They form a modernist pattern The announced illicit episcopal ordinations by the Society of St. Pius X mark a new stage of escalation in the conflict between the community and Rome. To understand the conflict, one must know its background. It involves far more than just the question of the correct form of liturgy; theologically, fundamental issues are at stake, explains Viennese dogmatic theologian Jan-Heiner Tück in an interview with katholisch.de: specifically, the acceptance of the Second Vatican Council and its openness to the world, to other Christian communities, and to non-Christian religions. Question: Professor Tück, what immediately stands out about the Society …

Modernist accuses SSPX of playing at piety, having a limited understanding of tradition and the sin against the Holy Spirit
Modernist accuses SSPX of playing at piety, having a limited understanding of tradition and the sin against the Holy Spirit What follows is pure vitriol, full of odium theologicum The priest who speaks with such malignity is responsible for the mission of the Church in Central and Eastern Europe. He would not say this about any other religious group, least of all the Eastern Rite Catholics and the Orthodox. What is he trying to achieve? The Society of St. Pius X is once again ordaining bishops against the will of the Pope. For Thomas Schwartz, this is not merely a violation of canon law, but the expression of an internal perversion of the faith. The bitterest tragedies in church history rarely cloak themselves in the garb of open rebellion. They appear in the vestments of supposedly purest orthodoxy, with hands clasped and eyes downcast. So it is here: The four illicit episcopal ordinations by the Society of St. Pius X are not merely a violation of canon law, nor a regrettable act of …
Also protect traditionalist orders from the ministrations of synodalists during a visitation, especially synodalist nuns with axes to grind and give stability to parochial Masses, so they cannot be destroyed on the whim of a new bishop.
Cardinal Müller proposes a new Ecclesia Dei in response to SSPX consecrations
Schism stirs the Consistory: "We must respond to the Lefebvrians" IlGiornale can reveal the content of a cardinal's address calling for a rebuttal to the Society of Saint Pius X following their accusations of deviation from tradition. The issue of welcoming back those returning to Rome after the illicit consecrations will also be addressed. Leo XIV had asked the Cardinals for frankness. And some took him at his word. Indeed, as we can reveal, while the agenda made no mention of the looming Lefebvrian schism, a cardinal—on the very first day of proceedings—pointed out the "elephant in the room": the Society of Saint Pius X’s open challenge to Rome. The address On the eve of the Consistory, the Fraternity founded by Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre threw down another gauntlet to the Pope and the cardinals by sending them a profession of faith that effectively accuses Rome of deviating from tradition and the perennial Magisterium. Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Müller—former Prefect of the Congregation …
The Church does not need more commissions or bureaucratic offices.
Kardinaal Müller hoopt dat er veel gelovigen van de Pius X broederschap, na de excommunicatie van de Pius X broederschap naar aanleiding van het wijden van vier nieuwe bisschoppen, zullen terugkeren naar de reguliere Rooms Katholieke kerk. Maar daarmee wordt het schisma wat door de excommunicatie ontstaat, wel definitief en onomkeerbaar. Terwijl de Pius X broederschap met of zonder excommunicatie snel zal blijven groeien.
De vraag van de niet gelovigen naar het Universele Tridentijnse Rooms Katholieke geloof van voor het Tweede Vaticaanse Concilie is groot, terwijl dit geloof in de reguliere Rooms Katholieke kerk verboden is. Deze nieuwe gelovigen wijzen het Tweede Vaticaanse Concilie dus uitdrukkelijk af.
Wat hier werkelijk het probleem is dat de Reguliere Rooms Katholieke kerk het Universele Tridentijnse Rooms Katholieke geloof van voor het Tweede Vaticaanse Concilie afgeschaft en verboden heeft en de vooral jongere generaties hier juist sterk aan hechten. Het gevolg is dat de reguliere …More
Scapegoating and stereotyping again
EWTN linked to right-wing extremism in the German mind
EWTN and the AfD – Cherry-picking from a misanthropic ideology Some Catholic media outlets view warnings about the AfD with skepticism. Andreas Püttmann argues against cherry-picking ostensibly Christian elements from a *völkisch*-nationalist ideology. Yesterday, Steffen Zimmermann acknowledged the efforts of Catholics in the Diocese of Magdeburg to uphold human dignity, charity, and democracy in the run-up to the state election. Bishop Gerhard Feige laments that they are being "ridiculed," verbally abused, and "pressured" by the AfD for their resistance against the coarsening of public discourse; the "intensity" of these attacks reminds him of the era of dictatorship. All believers in Germany are called upon to stand against such attempts at intimidation and to support the "little flock" (Luke 12:32) of Catholics in Saxony-Anhalt—to "amplify their voice" (Zimmermann)—in accordance with the image of the Body, in which "all the members should have the same care for one another. And if …

One of the most influential Catholic clerics in Germany of the post-Conciliar era found to be a wolf in shepherd's clothing
One of the most influential Catholic clerics in Germany of the post-Conciliar era found to be a wolf in shepherd's clothing A study lists further allegations of abuse against the former Bishop of Essen, Franz Hengsbach. Researchers consider the accounts plausible in at least four cases. A study on sexual abuse by the late Bishop of Essen, Franz Hengsbach, has brought further suspected cases to light. Researchers from the commissioned institutes stated during an interim report presentation in Munich that 66 people had come forward following a call for interviews in late 2024, and that a total of four reported cases of abuse could be classified as "well-substantiated and plausible." "There were clear indications that Franz Hengsbach was a perpetrator," said researcher Helga Dill. Previously, two possible instances of abuse dating back to the 1950s and 1960s had been known. Hengsbach in 1988: Allegedly committed repeated acts of sexual violence against minors The Bishop of the Ruhr—highly …
THE REAL BACKSTORY: The Protestant daughter of German Federal President Heinemann converted to Catholicism and taught heresies as a professor. She had previously mocked Pope Paul VI and his encyclical *Humanae vitae*; in 1987, Bishop Hengsbach revoked her license to teach at the university level. This sparked the religious, intra-church fanaticism directed against him—going so far as demands for his exhumation. This same fanaticism also targeted the former Bishop of Limburg. After he dismissed a clergyman who was promoting homosexuality, many within the diocese banded together to accuse him of profligacy—even though the necessary construction projects had actually been approved by lay committees under his more progressive predecessor. Hatred within the Church directed at anything authentically Catholic!
Many years ago, as a seminarian, and later as a priest I met Bishop Hengsbach, when I visited Essen, the birthplace of my grandmother.
