[Catholic Caucus] Glaringly Obvious Signs that the Spirit Guiding Francis’s Synod is NOT HolyAs we can grasp from the considerations that follow, the Synod on Synodality is perhaps the most vile offense against God taking place in the world today because its leaders suggest that the Holy Ghost is guiding the Synod,
whereas it is obvious that the guiding spirit is Satan.“In a synodal style, decisions are made through discernment, based on a consensus that flows from the common obedience to the Spirit.” (Synod on Synodality Preparatory Document)Not many Catholics appear to care much about the ongoing Synod on Synodality,...

Daily Readings from the USCCB“Those who are well do not need a physician, but the sick do. Go
and learn the meaning of the words, I desire mercy, not sacrifice. I did not come to call the righteous but sinners.” Matthew 9:12–13Would you describe yourself as one who is “well” or one who is “sick?” Are you among the “righteous” or the “sinners?” Be careful how you answer this question. Of course, the pride that comes with our fallen human nature often tempts us to claim that we are “well” and “righteous.” But humility will reveal the truth that we...

[Catholic Caucus] Appeal to priests: Resist ‘blessings’ for homosexual ‘couples,’ even to the point of shedding blood

[Catholic Caucus] Appeal to priests: Resist ‘blessings’ for homosexual ‘couples,’ even to the point of shedding bloodPriests who ‘bless’ a homosexual or other sinful ‘couple’ defy the universal and constant teaching of the Church and commit at least four mortal sins at once. On
the Day of Judgment, Christ will say to them: ‘Depart from me, I do not know you.’The heterodox “blessing” of homosexual “couples” and those in “irregular situations,” which Pope Francis and Cardinal Fernández have proposed in Ficucia supplicans, continues to be a cause of grave scandal and confusion among priests and faithful alike. Many bishops and...

Daily Readings from the USCCBAfter entering a boat, Jesus made the crossing, and came into his own town. And
there people brought to him a paralytic lying on a stretcher. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, “Courage, child, your sins are forgiven.” Matthew 9:1–2Just prior to this passage, Jesus cast out demons from two men from the town of the Gadarenes. Afterwards, the townspeople told Him to leave their town, so Jesus departed by boat and arrived in Capernaum, which was where He had been living after leaving Nazareth. This encounter with a paralytic on a...

answered and said to him, “My Lord and my God!” Jesus said to him, “Have you come to believe because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed.” John 20:27–29Thomas the Apostle, in many ways, represents each and every one of us in this exchange with Jesus.

Daily Readings from the USCCBAs Jesus got into a boat, his disciples followed him. Suddenly
a violent storm came up on the sea, so that the boat was being swamped by waves; but he was asleep. Matthew 8:23–24This experience had quite an impression upon the disciples, which is evidenced by the fact that it is recorded in all three Synoptic Gospels. We also see this in the concluding words of the story after Jesus calmed the storm: “The men were amazed and said, ‘What sort of man is this, whom even the winds and the sea obey?’” Traditionally, this story...

We are afraid so: Yes!—and judging by the unspeakable outbursts
of the papal court theologian Grillo, one not only may speak of “war”, one must.But let’s take the news of the last few days in turn. First of all, there is the case of the “Missionaries of Divine Mercy”—a small community of diocesan right founded by the (now...

Daily Readings from the USCCB“Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.” Jesus
answered him, “Foxes have dens and birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to rest his head.” Matthew 8:19–20It is unclear from this passage alone why Jesus answered this scribe the way He did. At first, the statement of the scribe seems very devout: “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.” But many of the Church Fathers, in their reflections of this conversation between Jesus and the scribe, offer helpful insights. First of all, note that Jesus neither accepts the...
