A priest in Milan was filmed showing his middle finger to a young protester during violent riots over the weekend. The priest, who was wearing a cassock, has defended his actions. Speaking to Corriere.it on October 22, Rev. Giannicola Maria Simone, 65, said he was simply returning the teenager’s gesture and saw no reason to apologize. During the unrest, he sheltered tourists and passersby inside his church.
En Italie, lors des manifestations du 18 octobre, une racaille s’en prend à un curé en lui faisant un doigt d'honneur. Le curé ne se laisse pas faire et lui renvoie la pareille. Ces racailles veulent la fin de notre civilisation et du christianisme.
Father Giannicola Maria Simone, 65, speaks out, reacting to the rude gesture a teenager made towards him. «I've been working with guys all my life and sometimes you even have to tell them “Be careful what you do”» «They're guys, so I'm not surprised. I responded to him with the middle finger, but with neither violent intentions nor the risk of unleashing further anger».
A Spanish bishop appointed by Pope Leo XIV told a gathering of so-called “LGBT Christians” in Chipiona, Spain, “You have much to offer the Church,” adding, “at the same time, you can be enriched within it.”
Leo XIV-appointed Spanish Bishop José Antonio Satué sent a supportive message to the 15th gathering of homosexual Christians in Chipiona, Spain, on October 9–11: “You have much to contribute to the Church.” Leo XIV appointed Satué Bishop of Málaga in June 2025 despite his public record as homosexualist. Satué described homosex "blessings" as “a step forward”. The homosex gathering, organized by PADIS Canarias (Pastoral para la Diversidad Sexual en Canarias), attracted just over 100 participants. Monsignor Satué wrote them that everyone deserves to be heard, welcomed, and treated with dignity. He claimed that homosexuals suffered within the Church and urged that it not be trivialized. At the meeting, participants agreed to establish a nationwide network of homosexual Christian groups, extending into Portugal. They also intend to prepare a document outlining their proposals for bishops, possibly by the end of 2026. They called for pastoral ministry developed “with” homosexuals rather than …Mwy
“If they do not wish to heed my request, as like the king of France [Louis XIV], they will repent, but it will be late. Russia will have already spread her errors throughout the world, provoking wars, and persecutions of the Church. The Holy Father will have much to suffer.” Russia the instrument chosen by God to chastise sinful mankind. And it is currently not consecrated so we can expect more 'errors of Russia!'
The Summorum Pontificum pilgrimage will tomorrow be barred from entering St. Peter’s Basilica, said Christian Marquant, president of the French organization Paix Liturgique, at today’s event at the Augustinianum in Rome. He added that Pope Leo XIV had described last year’s Mass at St. Peter’s as “instrumentalized,” reports MessaInLatino.it. This Papal remark was made during a December audience in which Bishop Athanasius Schneider raised the widespread desire for the Roman Rite with Leo XIV. “Perhaps he was annoyed by the large turnout or the extensive press coverage,” Marquant speculated. “And indeed, this year permission to celebrate Mass at St. Peter’s has been refused!” Marquant then announced breaking news: “Not only have we been denied permission to celebrate Mass, but we have even been barred from entering the basilica, without so much as a semblance of justification. We shall see what happens tomorrow.” The decision was communicated in recent days in a letter from the Vatican …Mwy
Quran is "Word of God" and Muhammad "chosen by God" - says Italian bishops’ school material. The publication, Schede per conoscere l’Islam (“Sheets for Understanding Islam”), was prepared by the CEI and the Pontifical Institute for Arabic and Islamic Studies (PISAI). It comprises 11 teaching sheets intended for use in Catholic religious instruction in Italian schools. They were presented at Palazzo Borromeo in Rome on October 21, at an event attended by Cardinal Matteo Zuppi. Sheet 2 describes Muhammad as “chosen by God to carry His message and to establish and guide the new community of believers.” It also presents him as an ideal believer whose life became a model for Muslims. Sheet 4 bears the title “The Quran: The Revealed Word of God.” Its text states: “The Word of God, unknowable in itself, becomes accessible to human beings through the oral recitation and written reading of the Quran.” It continues: “In time and space, God makes himself present through the attribute of the Word …Mwy

"PSALM 44 My heart hath uttered a good word, Lady: it is sweetened with honey-flowing dew. By thy sanctity let my sins be purged: by thy integrity may incorruption be bestowed upon me. By thy virginity may my soul be loved by Christ: and joined to him by the bond of love...."

Let thy holy fecundity scatter him: let thy blessed virginity bruise his head. Let thy holy prayers strengthen us against him: let thy merits put to naught his strength.

“Women today may hear the call to priesthood,” she said. “So for me, itʼs how do we within Church facilitate that discernment?”
Leo XIV-appointed Missio President doubles down: Women called to priesthood. Pope Leo XIV appointed Irish Sister Mary Teresa Barron on October 8, as president of the Pontifical Mission Societies (Missio) and adjunct secretary of the Vatican's Dicastery for Evangelization. On October 19, she told EWTNNews.com: “Who am I to say whether the door is open or closed to women priests?” “Women today may hear the call to priesthood,” she said. “So for me, itʼs how do we within Church facilitate that discernment?” Sister Barron wants the Church to accompany women who feel "called to the priesthood", “What do we do as a Church to accompany that discernment to see if, yes, this is what the Spirit is calling the entire Church to or not at this point?” she asked. Barron cited the October 2024 Synod on Synodality's final document: “What comes from the Holy Spirit cannot be stopped.” “So I think even though … there have been moments where we’ve been told we canʼt talk about this at all, itʼs over … it …Mwy
Women don't hear calls to the priesthood because women are not called by Christ to the priesthood. So, if the likes above hear a call they can be absolutely certain the call is demonic in origin.
St. Bonaventure ~ The best perfection of a religious man is to do common things in a perfect manner. A constant fidelity in small things is a great and heroic virtue.
Woman Distributes Communion at Leo XIV’s Eucharist — One Communicant Bare-Chested During the Eucharist celebrated by Leo XIV this evening at the Port of Rimini, a woman was spreading Communion in the hand as if it were cookies. One male attendee even received Communion bare-chested, without a shirt.
Cardinal McElroy has banned the installation of new Altar rails and discourages temporary kneelers, citing "a disruption of the flow of the Communion line". As you can see here, there is no disruption. Just another garbage excuse to attack the Latin Mass.
I would argue that kneeling and on the tongue is faster and more fluid than standing with Eucharistic minister placing the Eucharist in their dirty hands, stepping to the site, and then placing the host in your own mouth. Two operations as opposed to one so what is he even talking about.
Not a Good Look Seriously. Leo found time to meet with the Chinese Communists who picked their own bishops. He met with James Martin. He met with decorators for the apostolic palace. But couldn’t find time to meet with the SSPX. That is a fact JCS 77 (@musicthinker13) on X
