Worse than Germany: Cardinal Tarcisio Kikuchi of Tokyo has welcomed the Japanese government's plan to promote "understanding of sexual orientation and gender identity", which was approved on 16 June. The plan involves education and "awareness initiatives" in government, schools, and workplaces, as well as measures to combat "discrimination" against homosexuals. In an interview with UcaNews.com on June 17, Cardinal Kikuchi described the government’s decision as “meaningful”, stating that it had clearly articulated a policy intended to foster a "deeper understanding of sexual minorities". And: "An inclusive community that welcomes everyone is not just an attitude; it is the first step towards building the world that God calls us to create." The cardinal's latest remarks are consistent with his longstanding homosex activism. Tokyo Archdiocese has organised monthly homosexual Eucharists. In 2023, he contributed to the book LGBT and Christianity, promoted by the 'Catholic HIV/AIDS Desk'. …Daha çox
Almanya’dan da kötü: Tokyo Kardinali Tarcisio Kikuchi, 16 Haziran’da onaylanan, “cinsel yönelim ve cinsiyet kimliği konusunda anlayışın geliştirilmesini” amaçlayan Japon hükümetinin planını olumlu karşıladı. Plan, hükümet, okullar ve işyerlerinde eğitim ve “farkındalık girişimleri”nin yanı sıra eşcinsellere yönelik “ayrımcılığa” karşı alınacak önlemleri de içeriyor. 17 Haziran'da UcaNews.com'a verdiği röportajda Kardinal Kikuchi, hükümetin kararını “anlamlı” olarak nitelendirerek, bunun “cinsel azınlıklara dair daha derin bir anlayış” geliştirmeyi amaçlayan bir politikayı açıkça ortaya koyduğunu belirtti. Ve şöyle devam etti: “Herkesi kucaklayan kapsayıcı bir topluluk sadece bir tutum değildir; bu, Tanrı’nın bizden yaratmamızı istediği dünyayı inşa etmenin ilk adımıdır.” Kardinalin son açıklamaları, uzun süredir sürdürdüğü eşcinsel hakları aktivizmiyle tutarlıdır.

Today, Leo XIV sent a prerecorded video message to the 70th-anniversary assembly of the Leadership Conference of Women Religious (LCWR) in Orlando. LCWR is the largest association of leaders of Catholic women religious in the United States. Its members are generally the superiors of congregations of sisters. The video was shown to an overwhelmingly elderly gathering, with scarcely a religious habit or young face in sight. Religious to Become “Experts in Synodality” Leo XIV said that all Christians are called to be “formed in a synodal Church”. He continued: “In a special way, those in religious life are called to become experts in synodality due to the opportunities afforded by community life to practice it.” Then, he praised the assembly's planned “synodal method of listening, discussion and discernment,” expressing the hope that through such “fraternal and receptive dialogue” the sisters would be able to “discern what the Holy Spirit is saying” about “the present and future of consecrated …Daha çox
Mónica Astorga spent almost 40 years as a Discalced Carmelite nun in Argentina and became prioress of her convent in Neuquén. She became internationally known for her work with transvestites because of Pope Francis' encouragement. Astorga meanwhile left the convent and trained in hairdressing. The Vatican formally accepted her departure from the Discalced Carmelites in 2024. She “still” considers herself a believer – yet without attending a Eucharist regularly. Long Connection with Bergoglio Her connection with Jorge Mario Bergoglio, the future Pope Francis, began much earlier. Astorga says she met him when he was a Jesuit in Buenos Aires in 1987, nearly two decades before she began working with transvestites. She later described Bergoglio's support for her as “unconditional.” Beginning Her Work with Transvestites Astorga began assisting transvestites in 2006, after one such guy sought help in a parish. Her clientele included prostitutes, people living with HIV, and impoverished or …Daha çox

Why Does the Priest Sometimes Skip the Homily at Mass? | Catholic Mass Explained Have you ever attended Catholic Mass, listened to the Gospel, and waited for the priest's homily… …but then there wasn't one? Did Father forget? Is the priest allowed to skip the homily? And can a Catholic Mass legitimately be celebrated without one? The answer is yes—but it depends on the day and the celebration. IS A HOMILY REQUIRED AT EVERY MASS? No. According to Canon 767 §2 of the Code of Canon Law, at Masses celebrated with a congregation on Sundays and holy days of obligation, a homily is required and should not be omitted except for a serious reason. But what about an ordinary weekday Mass? A homily is strongly recommended, particularly during seasons such as Advent, Lent, and the Easter season, but it is not universally required at every weekday Mass. So if you attend a weekday Mass and the priest moves on after the Gospel without preaching, it does not automatically mean that he has done …Daha çox
Taybeh must not vanish into silence. Taybeh, the last fully Christian town in Palestine, is suffering months of attacks by Israeli settlers. On August 5, settlers entered the property of a Christian family belonging to the local parish, cut through the fence and brought a flock of sheep onto the family’s land. The incident follows reports of fires, damage to farmland and repeated incursions onto private property. Around 1,200 Christians remain in Taybeh, a West Bank town traditionally identified with the biblical Ephraim. Parish priest Bashar Fawadleh has appealed for international attention: “Do not forget Taybeh! Taybeh must not vanish into silence.”
Tajbeh, the last fully Christian town in Palestine, has been subjected to attacks and intimidation by Israeli settlers for months. Residents fear that the pressure will force more families to leave their homes and land. The village, located east of Ramallah in the West Bank, is identified with the biblical Ephraim. According to tradition, Jesus and his disciples found refuge there. Recently, there have been repeated incursions onto private properties and farmland. On August 5, settlers entered the property of a family belonging to the parish, destroyed the fence, and brought a flock of sheep onto the land. Such actions are systematic in nature and are intended to instill fear and force Palestinians to leave their land. There have also been instances of arson, destruction of fields, roadblocks, and restrictions on freedom of movement. “We feel forgotten; we feel alone,” he emphasizes, appealing to the international community for concrete protection of the civilian population and political …Daha çox
Ukrainian soldiers report critical conditions on the front lines. A brigade commander claims his troops have gone months without rotation or regular supplies of water, food, and medicine. A group of Ukrainian soldiers took to social media to say they were forced to drink their own urine due to Kiev’s failure to rotate or provide them with supplies. The soldiers urged Ukraine’s recently appointed top general, Mikhail Drapaty, to intervene, claiming their immediate command ignored their pleas. The scandal erupted on Tuesday when the soldiers, claiming to be a fire support platoon with the 121st Territorial Defense Brigade, published their address on social media. The video features several men sitting inside a dark room, likely a basement, with the platoon commander, who identified himself as Anatoly Sischuk, reading out the address. Sischuk claimed that his platoon was in one position in Zaporozhye Region, Russia for nearly four months, despite their command initially promising the unit …Daha çox
A group of Ukrainian soldiers took to social media to say they were forced to drink their own urine due to Kiev’s failure to rotate or provide them with supplies. This is not the first time the Ukrainian soldiers had to drink their urine. But this time, they took to social media to complain. Letting the world know how they are treated. Some can "try" to suppress this sort of thing to prevent us from knowing. But sooner or later it's revealed for most to know.

World’s Oldest Trappist Monk, 108, Survivor of Communist Persecution, Has Died. Fr. Benedict Chao, the world’s oldest Trappist monk, died on July 31 at Our Lady of Joy Abbey on Lantau Island, Hong Kong, at the age of 108.

He belonged to a generation of Chinese Trappists whose monasteries were destroyed during Communist persecution. After fleeing mainland China, Chao and fellow monks lived for a time in Canada and the United States before rebuilding their monastic community in Hong Kong.

Capt Kyle @CaptKylePatriot THEY HAVE BEEN LYING TO YOU ABOUT OIL FOR 150 YEARS. Oil is not rare. It is not made from dead dinosaurs. It is the second most common liquid on Earth after water and it is literally the planet’s lifeblood. The entire “fossil fuel” scam was invented by the Rockefellers and the Smithsonian in the late 1800s to create artificial scarcity and jack up prices to insane levels. They fed you the biotic lie so you would believe oil is some finite dinosaur soup that is about to run dry. Total fabrication. Oil is abiotic. It is a liquid mineral cooked deep in the Earth’s mantle under crushing pressure and scorching heat. It is the natural lubricant for tectonic plates and the grease that keeps the planet’s massive gears turning smoothly. That is why wells drilled dry in the 1970s are filling back up again today. The Earth is pumping fresh oil from below and regenerating it nonstop. It does not run out. We are sucking the lubricant out of the planet’s engine and now the …Daha çox
Cardinal Matteo Zuppi of Bologna and president of the Italian Bishops’ Conference attended the private funeral of Italian singer-songwriter Francesco Guccini in Pavana on Saturday. He delivered an address, published on Avvenire.it (August 8), in which he practically canonized the self-described agnostic. Guccini, 86, had described himself as an “agnostic possibilist.” Zuppi, who was his friend, recalled that the singer had once told him he wanted the cardinal present at his funeral. Addressing Guccini directly, Cardinal Zuppi imagined what the deceased might now be seeing: “We do not know precisely … what you see: the fullness of that light which, in reality, you had already sensed from here and which you were able to glimpse in the poignant and infinite beauty of life.” Cardinal Zuppi portrayed Guccini’s agnostic doubt positively, as an honest search for truth. “Doubt was your way of standing before things without cheating, with integrity,” he said. “You never stopped asking and listening.” …Daha çox

Mainz Piskoposu Peter Kohlgraf, 11 Ağustos’ta Katholisch.de’ye verdiği demeçte, Vatikan’ın laik kişilerin vaaz vermesini yasaklama gerekçesinin “tamamen tutarlı olmadığını” belirtti. "Liturji Prefekti'nin mektubunda, yalnızca ayini yöneten rahibin vaaz verebileceği belirtiliyor. Ancak bu mantığın sonuna kadar götürüldüğünde, bu durum, ayine eşlik eden bir rahibin veya yardımcı diyakozun da vaaz vermesine izin verilmemesi gerektiği anlamına gelir." Laik Vaaz Verilmesi Sorun Değil Mainz Piskoposluğu’nda, zaman zaman layiklerin vaaz vermesi yerleşik bir uygulama haline gelmiştir ve Piskopos Kohlgraf bunu değiştirmeye niyetli değildir. Bazı cemaatlerde “laiklerin vaaz vermesi gelenekseldir” dedi. “Bunu duyarsam, disiplin işlemi uygulamayacağım veya kanuni yaptırımlar uygulamayacağım.” "İhbarlar" Bir Sorundur Piskopos Kohlgraf, Roma’dan gelen talimatın “ihbarları” teşvik edebileceğinden endişe duyuyor: “Liturjik ihlalleri doğrudan piskoposa bildiren ve bana mektup yazan insanlar var.

The Vatican's reasoning for the ban on lay preaching is "not entirely consistent," Bishop Peter Kohlgraf of Mainz told Katholisch.de on August 11. "The letter from the Prefect for Liturgy states that only the priest celebrating Mass may preach. But taken to its logical conclusion, that would mean a concelebrating priest or an assisting deacon shouldn't be allowed to preach either." Lay Preaching Is No Problem In the Diocese of Mainz, occasional lay preaching has become an established practice and Bishop Kohlgraf has no intention of changing that. In some parishes, "it is customary for laypeople to preach," he said. "If I hear about it, I won't take disciplinary action or impose canonical sanctions." "Denunciations" Are a Problem Bishop Kohlgraf is concerned that the directive from Rome could encourage "denunciations": "There are people who report liturgical violations straight to the bishop and write directly to me. That happened before too - individual people would complain to me - but …Daha çox
"The letter from the Prefect for Liturgy states that only the priest celebrating Mass may preach. But taken to its logical conclusion, that would mean a concelebrating priest or an assisting deacon shouldn't be allowed to preach either." Even a blind squirrel will find a nut every once in a while. So the Prefect for Liturgy is careless to the point of being goofy. But what self-respecting Catholic, much less a bishop, can use this for an excuse?
Bishop Peter Kohlgraf of Mainz criticised the Vatican’s June 17 ruling upholding the ban on lay preaching at Mass as “not entirely coherent”. He noted that lay preaching has become common practice and said he would neither intervene nor impose canonical sanctions.
