One of the most shocking forced beatifications of the Francis pontificate was that of Bishop Angelelli, a terrorist-supporting Bishop from Argentina, who died in an automobile accident, but was deemed a martyr. He was so liberal, so cruel against orthodox Catholics, and so against any orthodox causes in his lifetime, that serious Catholics in Argentina mocked him by calling him "Satanelli" during his own lifetime. Another extreme liberal bishop, Jorge Novak, of Quilmes, was also placed by Francis on a fast track to beatification and canonization. Thankfully, with the new pontificate, the fast tracking is being reexamined, and, in Novak's case, at least one serious impediment has been found: his lax conduct regarding the case of at least one abusive priest under his care. The announcement of the Vatican derailment of the cause was made public yesterday by the local diocese: Communiqué on the Cessation of the Canonical Cause for the Beatification and Canonization of the Servant of God …
On 8 April, Pope Leo XIV appointed Monsignor Benoît Aubert, 53, as Bishop of Limoges, France. A priest of the Archdiocese of Paris, he has served as pastor of the Dourdan–Bienheureuse-Marie-Poussepin pastoral sector in the Diocese of Évry-Corbeil-Essonnes since 2022, as well as serving as chaplain at Notre-Dame de l’Ouÿe, a retreat centre belonging to the Archdiocese of Paris. He succeeds Bishop Pierre-Antoine Bozo, who was appointed coadjutor bishop of La Rochelle on 19 August 2025. Listening, accompaniment and closeness As episcopal vicar for young adults in Paris, Monsignor Aubert described his role as receiving what young people entrust to him, including "the most intimate, even the most disturbing" experiences, and becoming a kind of "receptacle of hearts". On OeuvreDesVocations.fr, he highlights the "synodal method" of "conversation in the Spirit" in his pastoral approach.

"sadly". Monsignor Novak was a staunch liberal with lots of "options for the poor". …and someone was actually expecting him to react differently when confronted with a situation of homosexual priest abusing a young boy????

Today, Leo XIV has appointed Archbishop Hubertus van Megen as Apostolic Nuncio to Germany. A Dutch prelate born in 1961, van Megen was ordained for Roermond in 1987 and entered the Vatican diplomatic service. His career includes postings in Somalia, Brazil, Malawi, Sudan, and Eritrea. In 2014, Pope Francis appointed him nuncio to Sudan. Cardinal Pietro Parolin consecrated him a bishop. He later served as nuncio to Kenya and South Sudan, while also acting as the Holy See’s observer to the United Nations Environment Programme and UN-Habitat in Nairobi. After twelve years as nuncio in Africa, van Megen’s move to Germany may amount to a cultural shock. Archbishop van Megen emerges as a typical Francis-era field diplomat: shaped by the Global South, active in UN frameworks, and strongly aligned with interreligious and ecological initiatives. His expansive praise of Francis places him firmly within the current Vatican trajectory. Francis-Era Profile: "The Plague of Clericalism" Monsignor Van …অধিক
Statements by the Papal Nuncio, van Megen: "Western society's positions on abortion, euthanasia, and gender theory are clear symptoms of a society that has lost its inner compass and, defenseless, is adrift on the turbulent sea of human desires, shaken and, in every sense, weakened." "It is evident to everyone that the West, a secular society, has lost its strength and is increasingly absorbed in itself." Western society has come to "put its lamp under a bushel; its light is growing dimmer and dimmer" (the "lamp under a bushel" is a non-literal quote from Matthew 5:15, Mark 4:21, and Luke 8:16). Why didn't Gloria include these statements?
Europe’s quiet role in the war on Iran As European leaders call for restraint and diplomacy; their actions tell another story. From military infrastructure to political alignment, Europe is not standing apart from the war on Iran; it is entangled in it, exposing a deeper pattern of dependence on the United States and strategic decline. European leaders have responded to the war on Iran with a familiar language: calls for restraint, appeals to diplomacy, and renewed commitments to international law. From Brussels to Berlin, the language has been measured, even cautious. Yet the gap between what Europe says and what it does has rarely been so stark. While European governments publicly distance themselves from escalation, their infrastructure, alliances, and policies continue to sustain the very war effort they claim to oppose. Military bases, logistical networks, and intelligence frameworks tied to NATO remain fully operational. Arms flows continue. Political backing, though often indirect …অধিক

Thank you for posting this I followed along for 6 minutes and the information is very interesting. However, he made a remark that does indicate where his head is at, "the fake moon landing is the greatest event that ever happened." Ok, I'm paraphrasing but you get the idea! I say no! Being Catholic we believe the greatest event that ever happened in the history of the world is the Resurrection of Our Lord and Savior jesus Christ! So view these government PSYOPs for what they really are, mind trickery to create Cognitive Dissonance. God bless you!

Although it had already been declared, the apocalypse will not come to pass. Donald Trump has brought about the ninth consecutive world peace. What does it matter that his actions sparked all this commotion? The most important thing is that he restored world peace on the night between Tuesday and Wednesday. Be honest: Would any of you use your own body to defend a bridge or a power plant—structures threatened with destruction by the world’s greatest military power? This is no longer rhetoric; it is reality—the Iranians are the true heroes of this war. As shown in photos published by state media, Iranians have formed human chains to protect bridges and power plants after President Trump threatened to attack the country’s energy infrastructure; senior officials stated that they were prepared to sacrifice their lives for …
The Vatican has suspended the beatification process of Argentine Bishop Jorge Novak (1928–2001) in October 2025, the Diocese of Quilmes announced on April 4. Vatican Cardinal Marcello Semeraro revoked the nihil obstat , the authorization to proceed the cause, opened in 2017. The Diocese of Quilmes received the news "sadly". Monsignor Novak was a staunch liberal with lots of "options for the poor". The Vatican cited concerns about Novak’s handling of a priest under his authority. The most substantiated case potentially linked to the Vatican’s decision involves Fr. Rubén Horacio Pardo of Quilmes, although the Vatican has not officially identified the priest in question. He was accused of abusing a 15-year-old boy in 2002. According to reporting at the time, the victim’s mother stated that several priests had warned Bishop Novak prior to Pardo’s ordination, raising concerns about his suitability for the priesthood. Despite these warnings, Novak ordained the homosexual man. In 2013, the …অধিক
