Trump avoids fake-news journalists, Leo XIV welcomes them. A CNN reporter questioned Leo XIV aboard today’s papal flight to Paris about President Trump barring CNN and other outlets he calls “fake news” from the White House. Leo avoided naming Trump or CNN. Instead, he stressed that all journalists are welcome to cover him. “I’m very happy that here, you are all welcome,” Leo said, adding that “good coverage” is “very important.”
Pope Leo reportedly responded to a liberal journalist about Trump’s CNN ban that he is ‘very happy that here you are all welcome, and good coverage, I think, is very important.’
Please pray for Sister Maria Hilda's mother who passed away yesterday!
On 4 November 1859, Sister Teresa Gesta, a Franciscan Tertiary in Foligno, Italy, died suddenly. Twelve days later, a sister in the convent reportedly heard agonised groans before Sister Teresa appeared through thick smoke. Saying, “Behold a proof of the mercy of God,” she pressed her hand against a door, leaving a dark, burned impression still preserved today. But the deeper message is not the handprint: Purgatory is God’s mercy—the final purification of those who die in His friendship before entering Heaven. It also reminds us of an ancient Christian duty: pray for the dead. Offer Masses, prayers and sacrifices, especially for forgotten souls. Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May they rest in peace. Amen.
‘The Sight of Hell’ by Rev. John Furniss, C.S.S.R.; 1882; Chapter XXIX-XXX; Pages 14; ‘The Sixth Dungeon…’ The Sixth Dungeon XXIX ~ Hunger The prophet Isaias, chapter ix., says that hunger will be so horrible, that everyone shall eat the flesh of his own arm. The Drunkard Do you hear that man roaring out in the middle of hell? How loud his voice is! It rises above all the groans, and shrieks, and cries, and screams of millions. With a voice like thunder he roars out: "Oh, a drop of cold water, a drop of cold water to cool my tongue; my tongue is thirsty, my tongue is burning, my tongue is red hot. Give me a drop of cold water, only one single drop of cold water to cool my burning tongue." The devil answers his roar with another roar: "You fool," he says, "you drunkard, why do you cry out for cold water to cool your burning tongue; there is no cold water in hell." Still the drunkard goes on roaring for a drop of cold water. Now the devil lifts up a scourge of fire to strike him and make …Magis

As France moves toward legalising euthanasia, Leo XIV spoke about the unconditional value of human life. Speaking today at UNESCO in Paris, Leo XIV warned against a society that measures human worth by efficiency and casts aside those deemed no longer productive. “Our dignity is not destroyed by illness or suffering, nor is it dependent upon our abilities,” he said. Even in “the most vulnerable circumstances, even to death itself,” human dignity remains undiminished. The sick, suffering and dying, he said, must receive “loving care at every stage of life.”
Leo XIV, s’adressant à l’UNESCO à Paris, s’élève contre l’euthanasie : « L’être humain est certes celui qui naît, mais aussi celui qui meurt. Notre dignité n’est pas détruite par la maladie ou la souffrance, et elle ne dépend pas non plus de nos capacités. Elle exige au contraire une attention bienveillante à chaque étape de la vie. »
Pope Leo XIV went to the Élysée and, with Emmanuel Macron sitting in front of him, delivered a theoretical lesson on what laïcité should mean. A "just secularism", he said, does not consist in excluding religion from the public sphere or from education, “Catholic schools have their full place in the educational landscape of a country like France.” Leo XIV greeted not simply “the French,” but “all those who live in this country.” Together, he said, they form “one people,” whose diversity of origins enriches democratic life and “the art of living together.” Leo XIV also went – in words only - into one of France’s fiercest current debates: euthanasia, pushed through by Macron. The pope warned against expecting science to provide an answer and consolation for every human suffering, and explicitly named genetic manipulation, surrogacy, the buying of organs and “the offer of a programmed death.” “The protection of the right to life constitutes the indispensable foundation of every other human …Magis
Leo XIV to the Civil Authorities of the French Republic: “A Christian involved in public life, acting in the light of his faith, cannot be considered a proselytizer and a threat to the homeland. Proper secularism does not consist of excluding religion from the public space.”
‘Purgatory’ by J. Sadlier; 1886; Chapter I – ‘CARDINAL GIBBONS ON PURGATORY.…’; pages 49-50; part II [Saint Catherine of Genoa – XV-XVI Century AD; born: Genoa, Republic of Genoa/ died: Genoa, Republic of Genoa; Aged 62-63; mystic, known for her work among the sick and the poor] CARDINAL GIBBONS ON PURGATORY. That the practice of praying for the dead has descended from apostolic times is also evident from the Liturgies of the Church. A Liturgy is the established form of public worship, containing the authorized prayers of the Church. The Missal, or Mass-book, for instance, which you see on our altars, contains a portion of the Liturgy of the Catholic Church. The principal Liturgies are: The Liturgy of St. James the Apostle, who founded the Church of Jerusalem ; the Liturgy of St. Mark the Evangelist, founder of the Church of Alexandria, and the Liturgy of St. Peter, who established the Church in Rome. These Liturgies are called after the Apostles who compiled them. There are, besides, …Magis
"The Greek Schismatic Church, of which the present Russo-Greek Church is the offspring, severed her connection with the See of Rome in the ninth century. But in leaving the Catholic Church, these Eastern sects retained the old Liturgies, which they use to this day."
Some 2,500 journalists are covering Leo XIV’s visit to France, with special programming across the country’s main TV channels, radio stations, newspapers and news sites. Today, large crowds filled central Paris for the Pope’s visit. The scale of the turnout comes after days of unusually extensive media coverage of Leo XIV and his trip.
Incredible crowds in central Paris for His Holiness Pope Leo XIV.

During today’s flight to France, Leo XIV was not asked any serious or hard question like about his episcopal appointments. He was asked: "Are you a happy person?" Leo XIV responded: "Happy, yes, I think so." Then he added: "Despite the difficulties, I find it in Faith. I am content with a choice made many years ago, which I still renew every time. But I tell myself: following Jesus is the happiest thing in life." Speaking of the weight of his mission, he said: "It's heavy… it tires me much more, but God is great, he is much greater than us." In response to questions about his fluency in French, Leo XIV answered he has been practicing a little bit, but he is not using Duolingo anymore, as had been reported in certain media outlets.
Durante il volo papale verso la Francia, che accoglierà Papa Leone XIV a Parigi, Lourdes e Metz, al Santo Padre è stata posta una domanda molto personale: «È una persona felice?» Papa Leone ha risposto: «Felice, sì, penso di sì». Poi ha aggiunto: «Nonostante le difficoltà, però trovo nella fede. Sono contento di una scelta fatta molti anni fa, che ancora rinnovo ogni volta. Però mi dico: seguire Gesù è la cosa più felice della vita».
Here he should have said: next question. "I am glad that you are all here,” Pope Leo said aboard plane to France in response to CNN Vatican reporter who asked for comment on the banning of some journalists from White House. "It is necessary and I think it is very important to have good media coverage everywhere and for everyone,” the Pope said.
The first question I would have asked would have been a very simple one: what, when the aircraft takes off again at the end of these few days, do we actually want to have achieved?

Peter Thiel: “The pope recently issued this AI encyclical, or I would characterize it as an anti-AI encyclical. “And again, maybe it was too harsh, but the rhetorical point I have on it is that the Communist Party of China is not going to listen to the pope. “There’s a chance people in the U.S. will. And so, in effect, the pope’s encyclical was working for the Communist Party. “I’m not saying he was an agent of the Communists, but he was at least acting as a useful idiot for the CCP.”
"I, therefore, brother Raymond of Capua, called in the world Delia Vigne, humble master and servant of the order of Friar Preachers, in the justifiable astonishment, excited by the wonders I have seen and heard, am resolved to write, (after having proposed them with the living voice to the admiration of the faithful,) the deeds of a holy virgin, named Catharine, to whom Sienna, a city of Tuscany, gave birth."
‘LIFE— OF — SAINT CATHARINE OF SIENNA’ BY THE BLESSED RAYMOND OF CAPUA, HER CONFESSOR; 1853 edition; ‘Prologue; pages 19-21 Prologue David, the prophet of Christ, son of Isai the sweet singer of Israel, said, when speaking of the coming of the Messiah: *'Let these things be written unto another generation ; and the people that shall be created, shall praise the Lord." The holy man Job, desiring to announce the Resurrection, exclaimed: **Who will grant that my words may be written ? Who will grant me that they may be marked down in a book ? with an iron pen and in a plate of lead, or else be graven with an instrument in flint-stone?'* These passages of Holy Writ prove to us that whatever can glorify God and edify men, ought not to be related in one age and in one locality, but should be written down and taught to those who live, or who will live hereafter.

36K views · 212K reactions | To stand in solidarity means putting down the script. Being a real human. Having a heart for children, for the oppressed, for people suffering even when they don’t look like you, pray like you, vote like you, or come from where you come from. It means refusing to let politics, religion, nationality, or propaganda decide whose pain matters. You don’t have to agree with everything someone believes to recognize their humanity. You don’t have to belong to their group to care when they’re hurting. And you shouldn’t need permission from your side to say something is wrong. Being a good person isn’t a switch you turn on and off depending on who’s suffering. If your compassion only extends to people you agree with, that isn’t solidarity. It’s not empathy either. It’s bigotry. Humanity has to come first. It’s time we all stop playing a role in Satan’s circus, and start standing up for each other as children of God. One love #china#netanyahu#epstein#…Magis
