Bishops’ conferences may pursue “appropriate steps in different contexts” after the 'Amoris Laetitia' meeting. The Vatican today released details of Leo XIV’s meeting with 248 bishops marking ten years of 'Amoris Laetitia' (October 7–14). It will be conducted in a “synodal style.” Participants will work in 16 small groups before discussing their results in plenary. They will use the Synod on Synodality’s “Conversation in the Spirit”: three rounds consisting of sharing personal experience, “resonating” with what others have said, and jointly identifying what has emerged. Fr. Giacomo Costa SJ, responsible for the meeting’s methodology, described it as an “evaluation assembly.” Costa said a Church document “is not the end point” but must become part of the life of the Church and “allow itself to be tested by experience.” Local Churches are called to translate its orientations into different contexts, “experiment with paths,” and evaluate their fruits and difficulties. Costa also said the …Mususu
Schneider is currently at the CIC with Michael Matt. Use this great interview for follow-up questions there.
Humanly speaking, Bishop Schneider doesn't see Leo XIV reversing Francis' course. The celebration of the Pontifical Mass at the end of October in the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore - instead of St. Peter’s Basilica - can be described as a “consolation prize,” Bishop Athanasius Schneider told Gloria.tv (video below). It is “sad,” he said, that these Catholics are not allowed to celebrate Mass in St. Peter’s. At the same time, Santa Maria Maggiore is the most important Marian church in Christendom. Both Pius V - who codified the traditional Mass for all time - and Francis - who restricted it - are buried there. Bishop Schneider intends to pray with the faithful for liturgical peace and for the traditional Mass to be celebrated again without restrictions. Asked whether Leo XIV might reverse Francis’ course, Schneider replied: “Humanly speaking, I don’t think so. But there is still God.” The pilgrimage will pray for Leo XIV, asking God to grant him many graces. Schneider calls the suppression …Mususu
The Church is rotting from the inside, the world sits on a powder keg, and things look dimly for America. Just like Rome with its cereal and circus, so many are just consumed with sport and entertainment.
Non-stop applause for Leo XIV. Vatican Media published this picture from Leo XIV’s audience with representatives of Gruppo Hera on October 1. It shows members of the delegation standing and applauding the Pope. Every day, Leo XIV receives such standing ovations in the Vatican. His speech called for stronger environmental responsibility, warning against the “uncontrolled consumption of resources” and the growing problem of managing and disposing of “enormous quantities of waste.” #newsJqizykucsc
Please, is there any real video recording of those 4 minutes long applause to him? Try to find it, because that would be revealing — what exactly uberhyperpapolatry means! Which, btw., does not have to mean that it necessarily has to do with the real papacy. Which actually if it had, it wouldn't be called - UBERHYPERPAPOLATRY!
Obscene scenes involving a statue of Our Lady in Porto-Vecchio, Corsica. In the early hours of October 1, one man climbed onto the statue, made obscene gestures and rocked it violently back and forth while another man filmed. The statue was then ripped from its pedestal. Two young seasonal workers, aged 25 and 21, have been arrested.
Hatred, stupidity, madness: In Porto-Vecchio, two individuals desecrate a statue of the Virgin Mary - "A desecration that must not be trivialized, the images are unbearable"
As Brazil prepares to hold elections next month, Latin America’s biggest nation is taking steps to shield its democracy from potential American meddling. nytimes.com/…cas/brazil-election-bolsonaro-presid… By Ana Ionova and Adam B.

Right-wing candidates aligned with Washington have won the past seven elections in the region, with Mr. Trump explicitly endorsing the winner in two of them. “We’re doing very well in South America,” Mr. Trump told reporters this month. “Lots of people that I got elected.” Now comes the biggest regional test for the right and for Mr. Trump’s record of success: Brazil.

Aaron Murphy, a commercial pilot and flight instructor proved that the Flydubai story presented by Netanyahu is impossible, raising suspicions of another Israeli false flag operation. Sitting down in a flight simulator recreating the Flydubai FZ1073 incident so viewers can see what the cockpit and the aircraft itself would have looked like during the sudden dive. Murphy’s point at the end of the segment is that the dive was not just violent to sit through — it was close to structurally unsurvivable. In the simulator, the horizon drops away, the jet pitches steeply nose-down, and overspeed warnings start screaming as the aircraft accelerates through the plunge. His conclusion is blunt: a descent that steep and that fast would have torn the airplane apart. megatron_ron
U.S. congresswoman promotes transgender ideology in speech at Catholic church. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC), a Democratic congresswoman from New York, spoke at the pro-homosexual All Saints Catholic Church in the Diocese of Syracuse on September 28. The event was aimed at mobilizing inactive Democratic voters ahead of the midterms. Speaking from the church’s sanctuary area, AOC accused conservatives of trying to make Catholics “turn against” their “trans brothers and sisters and neighbors and siblings.”
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) spoke from the pulpit at a Catholic church this week, co-opting the authority of the Church to accuse conservatives of making Catholics “turn against … our trans brothers and sisters and neighbors and siblings.”
Three of twelve NGOs against a Spanish government proposal to accelerate returns from Ceuta to Morocco have historical or institutional links to the Jesuits, reports InfoVaticana.com. - The Jesuit Migrant Service is part of the Jesuits’ social network. - Entreculturas was promoted by the order and is chaired by Enric Puiggròs, the Jesuit provincial in Spain. - Oxfam Intermón originated in 1956 as a Jesuit missionary organization. The proposed decree followed the large-scale arrival of migrants in Ceuta on July 30 and 31. The twelve NGOs opposed provisions that would impose a seven-day deadline for certain asylum applications, reduce the appeal period to five days and, in certain cases, remove the right to remain in Spain while proceedings were pending. The government later placed the proposal under legal review amid questions about its compatibility with constitutional and international law. #newsMigcosbltj
