Amid growing controversy over the future of the Valley of the Fallen, Spain’s Minister of the Presidency, Félix Bolaños, has defended Cardinal José Cobo of Madrid. Bolaños told LaSexta.com that the plan to secularise the religious site was not the cardinal's initiative, but the result of an agreement reached directly with the Vatican. He emphasised that no personal deal had been made with Cobo, who has faced significant pressure from Catholics over the issue. The minister also said that the Vatican is fully committed to transforming the Valley from a monastery into a site of "democratic memory". Addressing divisions within the Catholic Church, Bolaños described it as a 'plural organisation', while criticising more traditional sectors that oppose the transformation and suggesting that they are out of step with 'contemporary society'. He also placed the “re-signification” of the Valley within a broader set of negotiations between the Spanish government and the Church, covering issues …Higit pa
Several anonymous cardinals and curial officials told the Substack.com account The Pillar on April 17 that they do not expect any resolution to the question of the Mass in the Roman rite in the near future. Some Catholics had hoped the next extraordinary consistory of cardinals on June 26–27 would address the liturgical issue. Instead, Leo XIV chose to focus on Francis' document Evangelii Gaudium. One Vatican official said that Leo XIV was not very familiar with traditional communities or even the traditional liturgy, and that his primary concern was not liturgy but whether members of those communities accept the Second Vatican Council. As early as June 2025, the best friend of Leo XIV, Alejandro Moral, Prior General of the Augustinians, had already ruled out any return of the older form of the Mass under his pontificate. #newsVdgrmnvwkv
Noong ika-26 ng Hulyo, isang kilalang Italyanong aborsyonista na si Emma Bonino, 69, ang nagsalita sa parkoya ng simbahan ng San Defendente, Cassato, Italy, upang i-promote ang kampanyang pro-immigration. Sa loob ng ilang dekada, si Bonino ay may napakasamang presensya sa politika ng Italya. Bilang aborsyonista, pumatay siya ng higit 10,000 sanggol kasama na ang sarili niyang anak . Pinangunahan niya ang kampanya na nagtagumpay sa pagpapakilala ng aborsyon sa Italya noong 1978. Ngayon, si Bonino ay nagpo-promote ng pagnakaw ng mga batang populasyon mula sa mahihirap na bansa upang mapunan ang kakulangan ng populasyon sa Italya. Ang organisasyong pro-life na "Ora et labora in difesa della vita" ay nag-organisa ng prayer rally laban kay Bonino sa harap ng bahay ng obispo at sa harap ng parokya ng simbahan. Binanggit na si Papa Francis, ang pari ng parokya, at si Padre Mario Marchiori, ay nagsabi na ang simbahan ay "lugar ng pagtanggap". Ngunit siya ay nagkamali. Inulat ni Antonio Carrabino …Higit pa

In this powerful face-to-face interview, Mary Phagan-Kean — great-niece and namesake of 13-year-old Little Mary Phagan — shares the uncensored family story of one of America’s most controversial crimes: the 1913 sex murder of Little Mary Phagan inside Atlanta’s National Pencil Company. Convicted of the brutal rape and murder was Leo Frank, the factory superintendent and local B’nai B’rith president. His case became a national flashpoint, sparking intense accusations of antisemitism, racism, and a media war between North and South. It directly led to the founding of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) in 1913. Mary Phagan-Kean, who was named after her great-aunt and only learned the full story at age 13, opens up about her decades-long personal investigation.

3rd Sunday of Easter - Acts 2:14, 22–33 Then Peter stood up with the Eleven, raised his voice, and proclaimed: "You who are Jews, indeed all of you staying in Jerusalem. Let this be known to you, and listen to my words. You who are Israelites, hear these words. Jesus the Nazorean was a man commended to you by God with mighty deeds, wonders, and signs, which God worked through him in your midst, as you yourselves know. This man, delivered up by the set plan and foreknowledge of God, you killed, using lawless men to crucify him. But God raised him up, releasing him from the throes of death, because it was impossible for him to be held by it. For David says of him: 'I saw the Lord ever before me, with him at my right hand I shall not be disturbed. Therefore my heart has been glad and my tongue has exulted; my flesh, too, will dwell in hope, because you will not abandon my soul to the netherworld, nor will you suffer your holy one to see corruption.
