Many dioceses across Europe, North America, and Asia have seen significant increases in Catholic baptisms and conversions this Easter. The strange thing is that anti-Catholic media including New York Times, Washington Post or CNN advertised this trend. The most significant increase was reported in France, where 21,386 catechumens were baptized during the Easter Vigil. The total included more than 13,000 adults and over 8,000 adolescents, marking the highest figure ever recorded in the country. Outside Europe, large numbers were also reported in parts of Asia. In Hong Kong, approximately 2,500 catechumens were baptized, while Singapore reported 1,089 catechumens entering the Church. In North America, several major dioceses published substantial baptism figures. The Archdiocese of Toronto reported 1,584 catechumens, while Vancouver recorded around 650 catechumens. In the United States, diocesan figures included approximately 900 catechumens in Richmond (Virginia), more than 680 in …Kara
White privilege doesn't exist coming from a white privileged person! LOL! Oh and I guess the fact that slavery and white privilege, which are in the blood of the US, suddenly goes away with affirmative action.
Sulaiman Ahmed @ShaykhSulaiman BREAKING: Iran's FM Araghchi on the Strait of Hormuz: It is not in international waters. It is the internal waters of Iran and Oman. The strait is currently open and is closed only to those who are at war with Iran. For many of them, especially those from friendly countries, we have put arrangements in place so they can pass through the strait safely. Some countries have passed through the strait after reaching an agreement with Iran. The Strait of Hormuz can be a waterway of peace, enabling the calm passage of ships from all countries. x.com/ShaykhSulaiman/status/2039345578287550503
Girls are hitting puberty earlier than ever before — and the numbers are shocking. In the late 1800s, the average age was around 16–17. By the early 1900s it had dropped to 12.5–13. Today it’s down to about 11, with some Black and Hispanic girls showing signs as early as 8, 9, or even 6–7 years old — the earliest recorded in history. Patrick Bet-David asked FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary why this is happening. Makary pointed to the modern environment: constant exposure to substances and chemicals with estrogen-like binding properties (found even in river water) that partially activate estrogen receptors. He called it a “huge issue” and an existential threat to human development, noting the age has been dropping by about a week and a half every year for the last 30 years. He also mentioned that in Europe, where some of these exposures may be lower, puberty still starts later (14–15 in some cases), and that American medicine has largely treated this as a minor footnote rather than …Kara
Catholic Italian author Vittorio Messori, 84, died on Good Friday in Desenzano, Italy. One of his most influential works was The Ratzinger Report, which was based on an interview with Joseph Ratzinger conducted in 1984. The book evaluated the Church's condition following the Second Vatican Council. Messori also collaborated with Pope John Paul II on the book Crossing the Threshold of Hope. In it, the Pope wrote that Jesus Christ is the unique Saviour of humanity and that Christianity contains the fullness of revealed truth. Throughout his career, Messori was renowned for his loyalty to the Church, coupled with his intellectual independence. #newsKlrgxiolhj
Fullness vs the truth no salvation outside the Church (un willful ignorance today is hard to come by.) BVI and JPII turned there backs on the oath against modernism which they took and wared against anybody who kept it ie (sspx and the like) the Oath The Oath Against Modernism - Papal Encyclicals
Four days ago, Pope Leo XIV praised Christian-Muslim “dialogue” during Wednesday’s meeting with the Programme for Christian-Muslim Relations in Africa. On Palm Sunday, dozens of Christians were slaughtered in Northern Nigeria.
"Christian-Muslim dialogue" - Yuck! There is no dialoguing with muslims. You might as well be dialing-a-dog! We should not be dialoguing with anyone, we should be preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ to them and instructing them in the True Faith.
Zu Ostern möchte ich Euch dieses Video empfehlen – es enthält atemberaubende Informationen über Jesus Christus und Sein Grabtuch, eines der größten Wunder der Kirchengeschichte: Creation and Miracles - Condensed Version Creation and Miracles – Condensed Version The Shroud of Turin - Proof of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ Das Turiner Grabtuch beweist, dass Jesus Christus gelebt hat, gestorben und auferstanden ist: dass Er nicht nur ein wahrer Mensch, sondern auch wahrer Gott ist. Er ist eine der drei göttlichen Personen der Allerheiligsten Dreifaltigkeit. Das Grabtuch von Turin beweist auch, dass katholische Reliquien wundertätig sind, und dass der überlieferte katholische Glaube (ganz und unversehrt) die einzig wahre Religion ist und dass es für das ewige Heil absolut notwendig ist, ihn zu befolgen und zu bekennen.

BILL GATES admitted “Humans Will Be “OBSELETE” And “We’ll Decide” If We Still Need You! In a chilling new interview, billionaire globalist Bill Gates dropped the mask and revealed the endgame for humanity. "Due to advances in AI, humans will no longer be needed." When pressed on whether society will still require people at all, Gates coldly replied: "Will we still need humans? Not for most things. We'll decide."
"I know many bishops, and almost all of them — mostly from Western Europe — tell me that they also want to ordain married men," said Bishop Johan Bonny of Antwerp in an interview with Katholisch.de on 2 April. In March, he announced his intention to ordain married men as priests by 2028. "I have not yet heard a Catholic bishop tell me, 'Even if the Pope gives me the possibility, I will not ordain married men.' They know this in Rome as well." Bishop Bonny worked in the Vatican for eleven years and is familiar with the different interests at play: "In Rome, they understand the situation here, and I know bishops and cardinals who support this solution, at least in Western Europe." He believes that the ordination of married men as priests is "a great necessity". "The consensus is there." Until the 1960s, a diocese such as Antwerp's had almost 1,500 active priests, as well as several hundred more who were retired. Now, the diocese has fewer than 100 priests, half of whom come from abroad. …Kara

Watch till the end. ( 8:42 seconds or less)l. A Christian civilian. Killed by a foreign strike near his home. Buried by his Muslim neighbors. This is the Iran they don't show you. In a country the world calls divided by religion, Muslims carried their Christian brother to his final rest. Not because of politics. Not because of propaganda. Because that is who they are. We filmed his memorial service—the grief, the unity, the shared humanity. This video is not about war. It is about what survives war: faith, dignity, and the bonds that no bomb can break. Watch. Share. Remember his name: *"Avanes"* IRAN War: When Muslims Wept for a Christian
Merkel redet sich stets raus und sucht andere Schuldige. Sie ist aber Hauptakteurin. Den Vertrag von Minsk 2016, der den Donbass hätte befrieden sollen, hat sie gezielt untergraben lassen. Mit Einhaltung des Vertrages gäbe es heute keinen Ukrainekrieg.
If you haven’t read Bugninni’s own enormous volume on the changes he made, and why, and his diary of what happened, don’t tell me that the NO was inspired by God.
On Holy Thursday, Leo XIV washed and kissed the feet of 12 priests in the Lateran Basilica. In his homily, he remembered his predecessor: "As Pope Francis once remarked: 'This is a duty that comes from the heart. I love it. I love it and I love doing it, because that is what the Lord has taught me to do.' He was not speaking of an abstract imperative or a formal, empty command, but rather expressing his heartfelt obedience to the charity of Christ, the source and model of our own charity."
Il Giovedì Santo, Papa Leone XIV lava i piedi a 12 sacerdoti.
I am glad Pope Leo XIV has carried out the washing of the feet in a traditional, more dignified and proper way. But, I just don't get this "kissing the feet" thing. The Gospel of St. John tells us Jesus washed the feet of His Apostles, it says nothing about kissing them. I have seen this kissing before and I find it cringey! It comes across - to me - as one-upping Our Lord Jesus, a kind of false humility (like the Francis) or virtue-signaling! Personally, I have never kissed feet during the washing of the feet. In the past it was done (or had the possibility of been done) at a separate ceremony. Now days in many places the whole thing is abused and a bit of a circus. The only feet I'd kiss are the crucified feet of our Lord Jesus Christ. Laudetur Iesus Christus!
And yet in Iran they have The Blessed Mother with The Holy Ghost as well as Christ in their Metro Station dedicated to them. On the outside of the Metro, They also have the Blessed Mother Statue on each side of her are Catholic Martyrs who are respected and accepted. Right in Teharn, Iran!
