A memorable feature of the Francis ‘papacy’, as you call it, was the deliberate protection of serial sex abusers by the Pope himself. Other popes may have been culpably negligent, but Francis was in a class of his own. ‘Making a mess’ is far too charitable a description.👇

@FrancisXRocca A profound defense of the Pope Francis papacy. In short, “make a mess!”

I was attracted to the TLM through my previous exposure to the Eastern liturgies. I instinctively recognized the deep relationship between them, particularly their shared mysterious qualities, a relationship much less apparent with the Novus Ordo.

The Church is 2,000+ years old. The 1570 Tridentine Missal was a post-Trent reform. The 1962 version used today in TLM circles is just 60 years old. It cannot be meaningfully compared to the Eastern liturgies, which preserve structures rooted in the early Church. Viva @Pontifex!

THE RESURRECTION OF THE CHRIST - coming soon.

I didn’t go through hoops. As a drug addicted, homosexual, transgender identifying, demonically influenced person, I was seconds away from killing myself because I could no longer handle the deep suffering of that disordered reality anymore… right as I was about to do the unthinkable and take my own life (as the demons would have loved for me to do) - I instead, in a moment of great desperation, dropped to my knees for the first time in my entire life, and begged God to show me that He was real. I went directly to Christ and the next morning I woke up with a rosary in my side table drawer next to my bed. Not being a religious person at all, I saw a man hanging on a cross at the end of that rosary, and wondering if that man maybe was the God I was begging help from the night before, I went online to figure out what this thing was. I found out it was a rosary and a prayer. I prayed it in an attempt to find the answer I had asked God the night before, and when I did, I felt a deep calling to go to a Catholic Mass. Trust me, it’s as crazy sounding to me as it must be for you to hear. But I listened to that calling in my heart that was so strong I couldn’t deny it. When I went to Mass, God changed my heart instantly, and ever since I’ve never been the same. I’ve been healed! I stood in the same room with the Holy Eucharist which is Christs actual body. What that means is that when you are in the presence of the Eucharist, you are in the presence of the one true Jesus Christ. As you stare upon Him, He stares back upon you. Being in His presence healed me instantly. So the night I was about to Kill myself…. I did go to God. I begged Him like I’ve never begged before in my life to show me that He was real. I wanted to believe. His response? He sent me His mother through the rosary. I prayed it and it lead me directly to Him at the Holy sacrifice of the Mass, and in His presence I was instantly transformed. Who else but God can do such miracles? I did not have an intellectual conversion. You don’t seem to understand…. I had an encounter with the one true living God of the universe, Jesus Christ in the flesh. His presence just as real and available to me as it was over 2,000 years ago when He sat before His apostles. Just like all the miracles He performed by merely touching people, or in other cases just saying the word, HE, the one true God, healed me! Everything that happened to me can be found in your Bible, these are not just stories that happened thousands of years ago, it’s a living text. You seem sweet, so I’m not trying to argue. But please, I beg you to reconsider what you think you know! God answered my prayer to Him in a matter of 5 days. His answer was to send me His mother. Who am I to argue with the responses God gives to me?! Listen to my story. If your right then wonderful, but ask God just once if maybe your wrong and let Him answer you. It hurts nothing to ask God for understanding on how His mother helps us by bringing us closer to Him. You lose nothing in this single act of humility. But I can promise it will be the best thing you ever did and it will blow your freaking mind! youtube.com/live/LNhWOlOjX…

@cancelwok3 You didn't have to go through hoops through other people to get to Jesus though. You can go directly to Him. He's the only one who has gone before us to God Himself. Great that you got healed from your past struggles. That's wonderful. But you don't have to go through different

Grateful to receive the endorsement of the Ohio Republican Party by a historic 60-3 margin. We’re laser focused on growing our Republican voter base & delivering a decisive victory in ‘26. This isn’t about left vs. right. It’s up vs. down. We’ll work hard to earn every last vote.

EXCLUSIVE: @rk_thorpe and I have obtained internal documents from Harvard revealing that the university deliberately penalizes white men in hiring and would virtually eliminate supposed "oppressor" groups from certain occupations. Inside Harvard's discrimination machine. 🧵

Harvard actually put its send-the-white-men-to-the-bottom-of-the-pile policy into writing. They deserve everything that's coming.

BREAKING: My team is now in touch with federal civil rights officials about Harvard's systematic discrimination against white men. We will assist law enforcement in any way we can—and hope that Harvard pays a heavy price for brazenly violating the Civil Rights Act.

Creating a new mass to be attractive to mid-century Lutherans or Presbyterians was really dumb. I'm glad that we have a ritual that is portable, adaptable, & modifiable for any occasion or audience. Is it made for me or am I made for it? Even mid-century Protestants abandoned it.

Better death than devotion: Indiana Novus Ordo parish kicks out Latin Mass community, gets closed by bishop several years later rorate-caeli.blogspot.com/2025/05/better…

I’m convinced the TLM is the natural state of things in the Latin Church. By that, I mean that if left alone, it will naturally become the dominant rite again, as it most fully expresses Latin theology and piety. That’s why a pope that doesn’t persecute it would be a huge win.

Every time anyone tried to point out what we all saw, Jake belittled them. Now he’s trying to profit off his book claiming he had no idea. Shameless.

People are speculating that Bishop Barron might receive the red hat under Pope Leo, but I think this photo of him in a different kind of hat should squash that rumor. 🤣

I’m praying that Pope Leo XIV will advance the cause for canonization of his fellow American Sister Wilhelmina.

The rare photographs taken of "Miracle of the Sun" and Our Lady's apparition in Fatima Portugal on October 13th,1917,

@TomPauken Hope he’s right about full return of TLM!

Excellent analysis from a knowledgeable journalist.
