Joseph Shaw, President of Una Voce, has written a reply to Cardinal Arthur Roche’s two-pagedocument against the Mass in the Roman rite, which was distributed at Leo XIV’s consistory last week in Italian and English. Faulty Translation Shaw notes that the English version of Cardinal Roche's document is a poor translation of the Italian: “The Italian word sintonia, which means ‘harmony’, was rendered ‘syntony’ (para. 4). It is surprising that an English Cardinal should have missed this howler, and it suggests that he didn’t write the document personally.” Cardinal Roche’s Threefold Argument Shaw then summarizes Cardinal Roche’s threefold argument: - that the Catholic liturgy has always changed through an ongoing process of organic reform; - that Vatican II mandated liturgical reform; - and that liturgical unity is essential to the unity of the Church. The final claim is illustrated with quotations drawn from several popes. Legitimate Diversity of Rites Shaw observes that the appeal …Okunengi
During the recent consistory, the meeting of cardinals in Rome, Cardinal Arthur Roche, Prefect of the Dicastery for Divine Worship, handed out a two-sided piece of paper containing some reflections on the liturgy to those present: this has been made available by Diane Montagna here. The liturgy had been among the four topics originally proposed for discussion at the meeting, but the cardinals decided to focus on just two, leaving the liturgy out. Cardinal Roche’s document was accordingly handed out without being formally discussed. Versions were available in Italian and in English. The latter was clearly translated from the former, and not flawlessly: the Italian word sintonia, which means ‘harmony’, was rendered ‘syntony’ (para 4). It is surprising that an English Cardinal should have missed this howler, and it suggests that he didn’t write the document personally. The argument of the text is not difficult to summarise. First, it makes historical argument that the liturgy has often …
Az Una Voce válaszol Roche kardinális konzisztóriumának a hagyományos misével kapcsolatos jelentésére A közelmúltban Rómában tartott konzisztóriumon, a kardinálisok találkozóján Arthur Roche kardinális, az Istentiszteleti Dikasztérium prefektusa egy kétoldalas papírt osztott ki a jelenlévőknek, amelyen néhány gondolatot fogalmazott meg a liturgiáról: ezt Diane Montagna tette közzé itt. A liturgia az eredetileg a találkozón megvitatásra javasolt négy téma között volt, de a kardinálisok úgy döntöttek, hogy csak kettőre koncentrálnak, a liturgiát kihagyva. Roche bíboros dokumentumát ennek megfelelően formális megvitatás nélkül osztották szét. A dokumentum olasz és angol nyelven is elérhető volt. Az utóbbi nyilvánvalóan az előbbiből lett lefordítva, és nem hibátlanul: az olasz sintonia szót, amely „harmóniát” jelent, „syntony”-nak fordították (4. bekezdés). Meglepő, hogy egy angol kardinálisnak ez a baklövés elkerülte a figyelmét, ami arra utal, hogy nem ő …Okunengi
YOU WOULDN’T FIND THIS IN THE MAIN STREAM MEDIA: Thousands of Orthodox Jews lined up in London to oppose Zionism while chanting “Israeli Government Shame On You!” Our voice is silenced that’s why you don’t hear from us, but NOT because it’s not there.

Remigius, Clotilde, and Clovis January 13 - Memorial of Saint Remigius, Bishop Dear brothers and sisters, Saint Remigius of Reims (c. 437-533), of the Frankish tribe but born a Roman citizen, was born in Laon into a cultured family. He became bishop of Reims around the age of 22. He witnessed the collapse of the Western Roman Empire in 476 and Gaul invaded by the Germanic tribes of the Burgundians, the Alemanni, the Visigoths, and, at the end of the 5th century, by the Frankish tribes, who slowly occupied the country thta's why it was named after their name France. With the help of the Burgundian Queen Clotilde (also proclaimed a saint), he managed to convert and baptize her husband Clovis, King of the Franks, in Reims in 500. Saint Remigius became the apostle of the Franks, working for nearly seventy years in his diocese, organizing the Church, founding episcopal sees, and spreading Christianity among pagans and Arians, preparing the noble French nation to become the "firstborn daughter …Okunengi
People in Iran have been suffering for a long time, but hopefully the situation “will not conclude in more violence and bloodshed”, Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa of Jerusalem told VaticanNews.va on 13 January. No one, he added, can deny the desire for life, dignity, and justice that is part of the identity of every person. Israeli Attacks Sow Death despite "Ceasefire" in Gaza His Patriarchate covers different countries with different dynamics, Cardinal Pizzaballa explained: “Our diocese is complicated.” The situation in Gaza remains one of “total devastation”. Despite the declaration of a ceasefire in October and the consequent halt to blanket bombing of the Strip, targeted Israeli attacks continue to sow death and destruction: “People keep dying, not only because of the cold, but also because of a lack of medicines, including antibiotics.” In the West Bank, permits are denied, movement is severely restricted, and settler attacks affect “the most basic aspects of community life”. …Okunengi
Except that it's not a Catholic country being a papal state. It is a state enshrined under a vicious false religion that enslaves and degrades its people. Another version of secularism combined with a bawl of allah akbar.
The Wasteland of Lust: Church Fathers Cry of Repentance Hearken, O brethren, and incline your ears! The earth lies desolate, the cities in ashes, and the hearts of men are hardened, not by famine nor by war, but by the insatiable craving of the flesh, which is always disordered, enslaving, and without end. Augustine teaches that concupiscence, flowing from the first transgression, bends reason to serve desire, and darkens the mind. Chrysostom cries: pleasure of the flesh sought for itself never rests, never satisfies, and enslaves the soul. Scripture commands: “Flee fornication” (1 Corinthians 6:18), and, “the unmarried man cares for the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord” (1 Corinthians 7:32). Let all know: virginity and continence are the crown and weapon of the faithful, for the flesh finds rest only in restraint, and the soul ascends to God in purity. Jerome declares: “Virginity is a crown, continence a weapon; he who conquers the flesh reigns with God.” Gregory of …Okunengi
Pravda TV Russians were urged to prepare for the “end of the world” in a terrifying warning of a nuclear apocalypse. The Putin confidant added ominously: "This moment of freedom will probably only accompany us for a very short time." Vladimir Putin's chief ideologue has urged Russians to prepare for the end of the world – remarks widely interpreted as a thinly veiled reference to the growing danger of a nuclear war between Moscow and its enemies, including Britain. Alexander Dugin, 64, an ultranationalist philosopher often described as the spiritual architect of the Kremlin worldview, warned of the imminent arrival of eternity and claimed that the moment of free choice could soon disappear forever. In an apocalyptic online post, Dugin called on all unbaptized Russians to get baptized immediately and urged those who do not attend church to do so without delay in order to prepare for paradise in the afterlife. “We cannot be sure that eternity will not come soon, and then it will be too …Okunengi
Mon Jan 12, 2026 - 12:18 pm ESTMon Jan 12, 2026 - 12:30 pm EST (LifeSiteNews) — The former president of Ireland claimed that infant baptism violates children’s human rights. The Irish Times published an excerpt from a recent talk by Mary McAleese at University College Cork (UCC), in which the heterodox Catholic made her case against infant baptism. “Throughout the world, there continues a long-standing, systemic and overlooked severe restriction on children’s rights with regard to religion,” the former president of Ireland wrote. “It restricts children’s rights as set out in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) in 1948 and United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) in 1989, to which both Ireland and the Holy See – which governs the Catholic Church and is effectively the author of canon law – are State Parties.” McAleese, who was president of Ireland from 1997 to 2011, argued that children are restricted in their religious freedom by infant baptism, to …

The diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart, Germany, allegedly regrets its televised Christmas Eve Eucharist, which featured an adult woman covered in sticky rice paper who resembled a slimy alien in a manger. The Eucharist was broadcast Germanwide from the parish of St Mary’s in Stuttgart. The officiating priest, Thomas Steiger, said during the service: "The nativity scene shows a real human being, lying there miserable, naked and exposed." Next to him, the female actor breathed heavily and slowly writhed in the paper, which was apparently meant to represent the vernix covering a newborn child. "This is how radically God becomes human: close, touchable, without distance, real," said Rev Steiger. It was only on 12 January, after nearly three weeks of mounting criticism and online mockery, that Bishop Klaus Krämer of Rottenburg-Stuttgart published a statement on the diocesan website. It claims that the bishop has taken note of the feedback and carefully reviewed it over the past few days. "The …Okunengi

Wide Awake Media @wideawake_media In the 1970s, the number of homeschoolers was roughly 13,000. By the 1980s, this figure had grown to 200,000, and by the 1990s, it reached 850,000. Fast forward to today, and there are now over five million homeschoolers, with the trend continuing to climb. People are finally waking up to the true nature of the government indoctrination camps euphemistically referred to as "schools".
Cardinal Arthur Roche distributed at Leo XIV’s consistory last week a text on liturgy. Journalist Nico Spuntoni published the two-page report (facsimile below). It is a strong defence of Traditionis Custodes. The report was one of four texts distributed to the cardinals. The others were written by Cardinals Tucho (Faith), Grech (Synod) and Baggio (Human development). The strongest ideological rejection of the Mass in the Roman rite is in four quotations taken from Francis in the report's points 9, 10 and 11: - “For this reason we cannot go back to that ritual form which the Council Fathers, cum Petro et sub Petro, felt the need to reform.” - “The use of liturgical books that the Council sought to reform was… a concession that in no way envisaged their promotion.” - “The liturgical books promulgated by the holy Popes Paul VI and John Paul II… are the sole expression of the lex orandi of the Roman Rite.” - “I do not see how it is possible to say that one recognizes the validity of …Okunengi
I haven't read it... I wrote Abp Nichols et al. long in advance fully anticipating they were going to attempt to do a hatchet job on the TLM.. whether he has any standing any more, that is another question.
They just keep provoking Russia. And Russia still not losing her head. They could have retaliated long ago. Just like Stanislav Petrov they keep calm and wait as they "promised". But sometimes I think promises should be broken. Apparently "so far" Russia doesn't think so and keeps her promise. The question is, how much longer?
A mosque behind an Armenian Church. Beautiful too. There are video's on yt I use to watch from Iran. They are such friendly people. When an American youtuber went to check out Iran, he was trying to buy and taste some of their food. Everyone of them gave them food free. Said, you are our guests. We give it to you free. Everyone in Iran he showed us was "very" friendly And I didn't see the beautiful parts, but what I saw was pretty decent. And clean! They even invited them into their homes for a homemade meal and they went! Amazing country.
