    [Catholic Caucus] The Infernal Synod on SynodalityAs the three-year synodal process on synodality for a synodal Church limps into its final three weeks of meetings in Rome, even poking fun at it has become a bit tedious.Originally ridiculed by many as a “meeting about meetings,” it never managed to demonstrate that it wasn’t. Way back in November 2021, still flush with excitement over the synodal process—with meetings at the parish, diocesan, national, continental, and planetary level still beckoning enticingly—Cardinal Christophe Pierre, apostolic nuncio in the United States, said that if synodality was a “meeting about meetings,” it would be a...

    [Catholic Caucus] Pope faces abuse scandals, lays out template for Catholicism in a secular milieuROME – In a country still reeling from a deep clerical sexual abuse crisis, Pope Francis on Saturday bitterly acknowledged that such abuse “generates atrocious suffering and wounds,” vowing that the path of reform includes learning from survivors.The realities of abuse, the pontiff said, can even “undermine the path of faith.”“There is a need for a great deal of mercy, to keep us from hardening our hearts before the suffering of victims, so that we can help them feel our closeness and offer all the help...

    A pastor's daughter thought she had escaped a childhood of sexual abuse by moving out and getting married only to see her father break into her house and sodomize her weeks after she had a baby. Bertheophilus 'Judge' Bailey, a respected minister at St Andrew Christian Church in Tulsa began abusing Harmony Oates when she was in sixth grade, court documents claim. He told his daughter he was her 'boyfriend' and that the little girl would unleash a 'total catastrophe to the whole kingdom of God' if she ever revealed what he was doing to her. But he was arrested...

With Hamas in its death throes in Gaza and Hezbollah reeling in Lebanon, is Iran’s “Ring of Fire” strategy being smashed, even as the Yemen-based Houthis launch another missile at Israel today? And how will the Iranian regime react to these massive setbacks? Could we see a broader war? Watch now!

    The Revoice Conference is a coalition of “gay Christians” who collude annually to prop up their status as outspoken homosexuals and promote the gay agenda of full acceptance and inclusion in the ranks of churches in America. Led by gay activists such as Nate Collins and Preston Sprinkle, the Conference promotes an identity of “gay” while committing to a life of “celibacy.” After all, other forms of same-sex intimacy are acceptable within the movement. Revoice has been endorsed by a professor at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary—a Southern Baptist Convention seminary—who says despite some disagreements she now has with them, she...

    The Left Is Right: Clericalism Is the Problemp/c Remnant MagazineThe leftists who hijacked the hierarchy since the 1960s (and especially since 2013) state that the main problem in the Catholic Church today is “clericalism.” They condemn anything maintained by traditional Catholics that still delineates between the clerical state and the lay state. For example, they believe even something as innocent as the cassock must be deemed a sign of arrogance and “rigorism.” Like Marxists have always done, their thrust is to blur the lines between Holy Orders and marriage… so as to destroy both sacraments.But it is precisely the leftists...
