Pope Francis publishes norms for clergy to ‘bless’ homosexual couples

December 18, 2023 breaking, Uncategorized Comments Off on Pope Francis publishes norms for clergy to ‘bless’ homosexual couples

VATICAN CITY (LifeSiteNews) — Pope Francis and Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernández have issued a text allowing “blessings for couples in irregular situations and for couples of the same sex” in contradiction to the unchangeable Catholic teaching that the Church cannot bless sinful relationships. The declaration Fiducia Supplicans, issued without warning on December 18 by the Congregation (now Dicastery) for the Doctrine of the Faith’s new prefect, Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernández, presented the results of a project which he has been working on with Pope Franci

By DEACON MIKE MANNO Last year the Democrats controlling the City of New York passed a law that had been proposed by former Mayor Bill de Blasio, and supported by the current mayor, Eric Adams, in which non-citizens were allowed to vote in certain local elections.However, before the law could take effect, Republicans challenged it and a local judge, Ralph Parzio, ruled that it violated the state constitution that only allowed for citizen voting, and struck it down. The law had been scheduled to go into effect in January of this year.The liberal reaction was typical: “Today, the [court] seeks to once again revoke that right and disenfranchise hundreds of thousands of permanent New York City residents from having a…Continue Reading

Cardinal Müller on Strickland’s Sacking: “It’s an abuse of the Divine Right of the Episcopate.”

November 11, 2023 breaking, Uncategorized Comments Off on Cardinal Müller on Strickland’s Sacking: “It’s an abuse of the Divine Right of the Episcopate.”

What is being done to Bishop Strickland is terrible, an abuse of the divine right of the episcopate. If I could advise Mgr Strickland, he should absolutely not resign, because then they could wash their hands of his innocence. [Note: Which is why Strickland refused to resign, and was sacked.] According to the commandment of justice, a bishop can only be removed by the Pope if he has been guilty of something evil (heresy, schism, apostasy, crime, or a totally non-priestly behavior), for example the pseudo-benediction that insults God and deceives people about their salvation – blessing people of opposite or the same sex in extramarital relationships. Arbitrary dismissal from the post of bishop of a diocese in which 

After Three Weeks Of Drama . . . House GOP Chooses Speaker Who Doesn’t Look Dramatic At All

By DEXTER DUGGAN If it takes the United States at least two years to elect a president, or maybe four years or longer, maybe it’s not catastrophic that it takes the members of the U.S. House of Representatives three weeks to choose their speaker.The campaign for the presidency has about become everlasting. No sooner has the quadrennial choice been finalized than strategists, prognosticators, and journalists cast their gaze ahead to the next one or even farther into the future.So perhaps it’s not disastrous that after Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R., Calif.) surprisingly was removed on October 3, it took until October 25 to consider other possibilities before unanimous first-ballot acceptance of a new speaker with the unremarkable-sounding name of Mike Johnson…Continue Reading

A Simple Question for Pope Francis . . . Has the Church Changed Its Teaching on The Reception of Holy Communion?

June 29, 2022 Frontpage, Uncategorized Comments Off on A Simple Question for Pope Francis . . . Has the Church Changed Its Teaching on The Reception of Holy Communion?

__ Joseph Matt, Publisher Less than a month ago, the Courageous archbishop of San Francisco, the Most Rev. Salvatore Cordileone, proclaimed in a letter that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi would not be able to receive Holy Communion in her Archdiocese of San Francisco. Many bishops offered their support to the bishop and indicated they would enforce the same action in their own dioceses. Since these actions and the recent Supreme Court ruling overturning Roe v. Wade, House Speaker Pelosi has become even more defiant and vocal against her Church and anyone else who stands in opposition to her obsessive support of abortion. This past week the world witnessed another scandal in the throes of the Vatican. The Speaker of the…Continue Reading

Rome, 16 July 2021 Dear Brothers in the Episcopate, Just as my Predecessor Benedict XVI did with Summorum Pontificum, I wish to accompany the Motu proprio Traditionis custodes with a letter explaining the motives that prompted my decision. I turn to you with trust and parresia, in the name of that shared “solicitude for the whole Church, that contributes supremely to the good of the Universal Church” as Vatican Council II reminds us.[1]

By JOSEPH MATT Almost ten years ago, The Wanderer approached Don Fier about writing a column that would undertake the task of explaining in detail and elaborating on each facet of the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Our hope was to expound on and highlight this beautiful treasure of our Faith — the Catechism of the Catholic Church. This week Don completed the monumental task of penning an in-depth explanation of the contents of the complete Catechism of the Catholic Church by submitting his final column for the series. Thanks to the work of Mr. Fier, perhaps we have helped to fill a small portion of the void experienced by millions of uncatechized Catholics. It is our hope that we…Continue Reading

Neither Left Nor Right, But Catholic… The Left’s Suppression Of Free Speech

February 2, 2021 Uncategorized Comments Off on Neither Left Nor Right, But Catholic… The Left’s Suppression Of Free Speech

Neither Left Nor Right, But Catholic…The Left’s Suppression Of Free Speech By STEPHEN M. KRASON We are currently witnessing an assault on free speech in the U.S. that is certainly the most extreme that I have witnessed in my lifetime. As even a cursory examination of the developments shows, the assault is coming almost completely from the left. The examples are too numerous to list.Some of the more outrageous ones are these: Certain Democratic officeholders, joined by their minions on social media, calling for conservative media such as Breitbart to be censored; the push to censor speech if people will be “offended” by it; a journalist on Yahoo calling for the banning of conservative journalists; the targeting of television cable…Continue Reading
