I just wanted to thank you all for your help in meeting our fundraising goal for October. We are always humbled by your generosity, but also by the knowledge that it represents a vote of confidence in what we do, and your desire to see it continue. We take very seriously the responsibility of giving…
The pope is scheduled to visit Lund, Sweden, on Monday, for the joint Luthern/Vatican “commemoration” of the 500th anniversary of the Protestant “Reformation”. In a newly-released interview with La Civiltà Cattolica (excerpts of which have been translated by Crux), Francis indicates that he originally did not want to offer Mass in Lund, because he saw it as…
The frightening thing, he reflected for the ten thousandth time as he forced his shoulders painfully backward (with hands on hips, they were gyrating their bodies from the waist, an exercise that was supposed to be good for the back muscles) — the frightening thing was that it might all be true. If the Party…
Two years ago last month, I wrote an article entitled, The Ascendancy of the Devil. In it, I described various accounts indicative of a surge of demonic activity in the world, which has since only been confirmed as a continuing trend by various sources of mine, including priests on the front lines of the spiritual battle.…
LifeSiteNews’ Jan Bentz has translated portions of an article by the German Cardinal Walter Kasper published in Stimmen der Zeit. In it, the curial official who has become synonymous with the proposal to give Holy Communion to the divorced and remarried makes some important revelations about the aftermath of Amoris Laetitia (AL), as well as the thinking that shaped it.…
In a new interview in Crux, Auxiliary Bishop William Kenney of Birmingham, England — co-chair of the international dialogue between the Lutheran World Federation and the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity — offers us a glimpse of what to expect in Lund, Sweden, on October 31, when Pope Francis joins the LWF to commemorate the 500th…
I received an email from Fr. Scott Haynes, SJC, at St. John Cantius in Chicago. Biretta Books — the proceeds of which benefit St. John Cantius and the AMDG foundation — is having a sale on sacred music until January. I know that our readers are often in search of good sources of sacred music (and books)…
On Wednesday, it was noted that Pope Pius XI’s page on the Vatican website had vanished, along with all of his encyclicals, even though the work of popes both before and after him remained. We noted that his Mortalium Animos is damning of modern-day ecumenism, and Quas Primas is, of course, another encyclical that has — inasmuch as…
A thrown knife plunges menacingly into the wall. A handgun slides in from off-screen to fire a warning shot. Words of caution appear on the screen: “The only thing I can tell you is to watch your step.” When I was a young boy playing Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?, silly warnings like these told me I…
It appears that Pope Pius XI’s documents are missing from the Vatican website where they were once stored. We walk you through just one of the missing documents, the link for which is still available through Google. Since the (somewhat impromptu) video below was made earlier today, we did some more digging, and it appears that…
We’ve had some inquiries recently about the current presidential election here in the US, and whether we might be willing to publish articles pertaining to it. This is a bit of a minefield for us, so I thought it’d be a good time to explain something that not everyone may be aware of. In order…
