Metropolitan Hilarion Alfeyev, 59, once one of the most influential figures in the Russian Orthodox community, has been reassigned to Brazil following a drug-related investigation in the Czech Republic. The Moscow Patriarchate announced that he will serve two Russian Orthodox parishes in southern Brazil. He could no longer continue his ministry in Europe for "objective reasons." Hilarion had already been removed from his position of leadership in the Russian Orthodox community in 2024, after a former male assistant accused him of homosexual misconduct. Pictures revealed that he had been living a lavish lifestyle, including hoarding money and property. The recent move follows Hilarion's detention by Czech police in late May. Acting on an anonymous tip, officers reportedly found four containers of white powder in the trunk of his car. Authorities later confirmed the substance was cocaine. Hilarion was held for two days before being released without charges and returning to Russia. Czech …მეტი
“Protestantism as proudly called by its founders, is the sum of all the heresies, that have been before it, after it, and that could still be born to slaughter the souls” -Pius X Did you catch that part about the ones to slaughter souls? Interesting I don't see anything about him mentioning Russian Orthodox doing that. He said, protestanism. That's coming from not only the most Holiest Pope we ever had. But he is also a GREAT SAINT! He never said, it was Russian Orthodox. He said protestantism. He reached out to Russia. Not protestants. So, who should I believe? I great and Holy Saint and Pope. Or just someone who hates Russia and Putin. I will have to choose My Church and My Saintly Pope. So sorry. Funny those who condemn THE ROC never condemns protestantism. Which our Popes were ALWAYS CONDEMNING!
First possibility: We can speculate, with little risk of error, about what happened to compel Pius XII's successor to renounce his office after accepting it. Indeed, after accepting, the new Pope went to the room of tears to dress as Pope, and it was probably there that the blackmail took place, while white smoke was rising from the Sistine Chapel. This was certainly done with cunning and gentleness, but we do not know the purpose of this blackmail. In any case, he emerged from the room of tears, dressed not as a Pope but as a cardinal, and had to announce to the other cardinals his decision to renounce his office, which must also have been done gently and with apparent legality, since the conclave continued.

Today, Bishop Athanasius Schneider published a statement on dianemontagna.substack.com about the SSPX. His text. The questions and problems relating to the Priestly Society of Saint Pius X (SSPX) have been the subject of a largely fruitless debate for over fifty years and have now culminated in the announced episcopal consecrations, which have not yet been approved by the Holy See. The discussion has been fueled by emotion—often quite literally cum ira et studio—and is frequently conducted by individuals who lack direct familiarity with the relevant documents or personal experience of the SSPX. In many cases, their knowledge is superficial and shaped by preconceived judgments. As a result, the debate often resembles a dialogue of the deaf, in which the same arguments are endlessly repeated without any meaningful progress. Moreover, the debate largely bypasses the central issue raised by the SSPX. This failure stems from a fundamental methodological error and a lack of fact-based …მეტი
Schneider is a Vatican operative. Try not to get to carried away by a Novus Ordo bishop who practices the Tridentine Rite. I think he is controlled opposition. Don't fall for it.
María Montserrat Alvarado's appointment to lead the Vatican's Dicastery for Communication raises questions about the relationship between ecclesiastical governance and Holy Orders. Writing on X.com on June 2, Spanish diocesan priest and theology professor Jaime Mercant Simó argued that, at a theological level, it is not appropriate for even a theologically less importat dicastery, such as the Dicastery for Communication, to be headed by a layperson. Rev. Mercant noted that the Roman Curia is not merely an administrative structure. Every prefect of a dicastery acts with “vicarious power” in the name of the pope. “Mrs. Alvarado will exercise effective administrative jurisdiction and will have, albeit in an internal manner, real power over the bishops, priests, and religious who work in that dicastery,” he wrote. He argued that the appointment represents a separation between the power of governance and Holy Orders, from which the Church's munus regendi (“office of governance”), …მეტი

On 3 June, Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re (92), Dean of the College of Cardinals, sent a lengthy preparatory letter to all cardinals ahead of the consistory convened by Leo XIV from 26 to 29 June. The letter was published by TribuneChretienne.com. Notably absent from the agenda is the Church’s core business: the liturgy. Leo XIV makes the Vatican all about politics Leo XIV organised the consistory around four main themes, focusing on reconciliation in a world characterised by armed conflict, cultural divisions, and power politics. The first session focuses on the international situation. Cardinals are invited to reflect on the suffering and tensions experienced by peoples and ecclesial communities. The second and third sessions focus on 'Magnifica Humanitas', Leo XIV’s first encyclical. One passage is particularly noteworthy. Participants are invited to consider how the Church can reaffirm the idea of overcoming the theory of the just war today. The third session will address the reception …მეტი

“Francis Made Moral Questions Accessible to Young People”: Leo XIV's new Prefect of the Dicastery for Communication, Montse Alvarado, praised Francis' controversial legacy talking to CTSA in June 2025. At Francis' funeral, she reported about young people who told her: "I'm not Catholic, but Pope Francis was my shepherd," and, "I left the faith a long time ago, but I'm here for him." According to Alvarado, they saw Francis as a guide on "the big, difficult questions," including moral questions, and as someone who "espouses church teaching in an accessible way."
Francis made moral teachings understandable and accessible to young people. This is how Montse Alvarado, the new prefect of the Dicastery for Communication, spoke of Francis' legacy following his death.

Bill C-9 has passed Canada's Senate and could soon become law. This legislation would remove key protections for religious speech and could criminalize Bible-based teachings such as the evilness of homosexuality. However, a separate amendment that would have criminalised the denial of propaganda concerning residential schools was ultimately rejected by the Senate.
There was an amendment before Canada's Senate to make residential school denialism a crime. The legislation is Bill C-9, An Act to amend the Criminal Code (hate propaganda, hate crime and access to religious or cultural places). One of our readers said the change is "childish. This is his message to Canada's senators: Bill C-9 reminds me of the mean games and petulant accusations that children in school yard playgrounds use to manipulate each other: "I'm changing the rules!" "You can't say that! You hate me!" Bill C-9 seems to want to regulate people's thoughts, their speech, and their emotions, not their physical actions. But who will determine what constitutes "detestation" or "vilification"? A person who doesn't like what you or I believe or say? Who will determine how to interpret words that are subjective and sometimes self-serving? With this in mind, I urge you to defeat Bill C-9 when voting time comes in the Senate. God bless. The senators must have listened. The good news is …
The news is not good; they are passing that law, and also another, which puts one in mind of the Zionists: it will become law that anyone who dares deny that the residential schools caused great harm; abused and murdered children will be liable to arrest and may be sentenced to two years in prison!!!
I feel very sorry for you. Did you know the first State to pass laws curtailing freedom of speech, specifically antisemitism, was the Soviet? We have a long history in the States of having laws framed by the ADL, a communist organization, that aim to practically make every perversion legal. And then they pass a law saying it is antisemitic! Honestly it is just the continuation of the "Errors of Russia."
Pope Pius Vll and the Tsar of Russia ready to heal the wounds between the two Church's. The Pope with open arms welcoming someone sent to him as his son! Amazing! Sadly not the time to heal the rift. Soon, hopefully very soon.

Tackling the system not a cure why is Pope allowed to preach error ? Ever since the battle against birth control the church been in a state of diabolical disorientation on steroids.
God’s “weapon” of mass reconciliation”. Liturgy of Sunday 7 of June - Solemnity of Corpus Domini Dear brothers and sisters, to this world of ours. at the beginning of the third millennium, ravaged by wars and conflicts, torn apart by injustices and abuses of power, confused by ideologies and falsehoods, God, the Father, through the community of the Church gathered around the Eucharistic table set by the Spirit, offers "for free" to the entire humankind, His extraordinary "weapon of mass reconciliation" , that is Christ, the broken Bread, for the life of the world
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Mark 12,35-37. As Jesus was teaching in the temple area he said, "How do the scribes claim that the Messiah is the son of David? David himself, inspired by the holy Spirit, said: 'The Lord said to my lord, "Sit at my right hand until I place your enemies under your feet."' David himself calls him 'lord'; so how is he his son?" (The) great crowd heard this with delight.
Aus dem Heiligen Evangelium nach Markus 12,35-37. In jener Zeit, als Jesus im Tempel lehrte, sagte er: Wie können die Schriftgelehrten behaupten, der Christus sei der Sohn Davids? Denn David hat, vom Heiligen Geist erfüllt, selbst gesagt: Der Herr sprach zu meinem Herrn: Setze dich mir zur Rechten, bis ich dir deine Feinde unter die Füße lege! David selbst also nennt ihn „Herr“. Wie kann er dann sein Sohn sein? Es war eine große Menschenmenge versammelt und hörte Jesus mit Freude zu. angelyelina
If a person thinks that aliens exist, that means they don't believe that GOD sent his only Begotten son to save the "WORLD". Not worlds. Did GOD send His son to other planets with other beings to save them as well? Ridiculous and a grave sin. They are either demons or they are creatures that man put together like Frankenstein!
