Rev Gerardo Saco resigned from his appointment as Bishop of the Diocese of Tagbilaran in the Philippines. Pope Leo XIV appointed Rev. Saco on 25 March 2026, with the episcopal ordination scheduled for 26 May. On 5 May, Cebu Archbishop Alberto Uy announced that Leo XIV had accepted Rev Saco’s resignation. Rev Saco suddenly discovered a “change of heart” and “human limitations and inadequacies”. However, it is more likely that there is an undisclosed issue behind this decision. Choosing Bishops with Hidden Scandals Declining after papal appointment and before ordination used to be very rare in the Church. It has increased in the past decade as a side effect of deliberately appointing compromised or unsuitable candidates. In Argentina alone, Francis appointed three priests as bishops who then resigned from the episcopal consecration weeks later. Bishop Pascalis Syukur, who was reportedly in a romantic relationship with a woman and had fathered two children, accepted Pope Francis’s …තව
On 27 April, Leo XIV’s liturgical vestment designer, Filippo Sorcinelli, spoke to DailyMail.co.uk about the papal liturgical wardrobe. Sorcinelli is a homosexual who uses imagery of sadomasochism in his work as a perfumer. He works with the Vatican's liturgical office to design vestments, not directly with Leo XIV. He said that the Pope does not stage spectacles: "Each visual choice contributes to building a language of reliability, balance and quiet authority." The means of communication are fabrics, colours and shapes. "Every detail is designed to support the Pope’s role, not draw attention away from it." Leo XIV has leaned into classic papal tailoring, reinstating details such as cufflinks and structured vestments that emphasise form and precision. Sorcinelli has never perceived a conflict between his faith and his vice: "I have never viewed faith and homosexuality as adversaries, but rather as a creative tension that fuels my work." He added that his experience within the Church …තව
This explains why Leo's Papal Vestments are so horrible.....they look like rags that should be thrown in the garbage. Especially those short abhorrent German-style Mitres, which look like they're made of cardboard with cheap trim glued on.
On 29 April, the Canadian homosexual activist Jake Tucker, 39, was found guilty of multiple sex-trafficking and assault-related charges following a trial in Barrie, Ontario. Tucker is in a homosexual "marriage" and produced/bought a baby girl via surrogacy. In the past, he has organised homosexual events, drag nights, flag raising, and other local activist initiatives. According to prosecutors, Tucker recruited, controlled and exploited two women for several years, arranging their prostitution and taking a share of the profits. He also used coercion, violence and drugs to maintain control. The case began in 2022, when a woman reported to the police that Tucker had trafficked her for years. Investigators later identified a second alleged victim who made similar claims. After the verdict, Tucker denied the allegations and said he plans to appeal, arguing that the women were lying and that the police investigation was flawed. He is expected to return to court for sentencing and could face …තව

Today, Synod.va published the final report from Study Group 9 on theological criteria and synodal methodologies for discerning doctrinal, pastoral, and ethical questions. It is de facto on homosexuality. The report rejects the term “controversial” and says such matters should be treated as “emerging” issues (page 6). Repeatedly, it speaks of an alleged “paradigm shift” in how the Church interprets the teaching: “The commitment to practising the synodal nature of the Church implies the implementation of a ‘paradigm shift.’” (page 8) The final report even analogizes present ecclesial disputes to the Jerusalem Council’s overturning of circumcision requirements. It demands that synodal outcomes should not be predetermined by “pre-established formulas.” And: “The Church’s mission is not a matter of abstractly proclaiming and deductively applying principles...” (page 9) The final report invents “the stability of a healthy affective relationship” in homosexual contexts as a positive …තව
This is pure word salad. What is the point of the study group? The Church’s teaching on homosexuality is pretty clear.... there's not really anything to "study". This just creates confusion.
Synod study group n. 9 final report highlights testimony of New York Times-featured man blessed with his “husband” by Fr. James Martin one day after release of Fiducia Supplicans.
James Martin is absolutely revolting. His homosexual ilk is destroying the Church. Normal Catholics find the thought of homosexuality, especially of the male variety, offensive to the senses.

How is it possible that Francesco Capozza is still accredited to the Holy See Press Office, given that he is not a journalist on the professional register and given that he is facing pending criminal proceedings for offences of particular gravity? How is it possible that someone who insults priests by branding them as homosexuals can hold accreditation at the Pope's Press Office? It is a question which, leaving aside the parties' respective positions, goes directly to the responsibility of those who manage Vatican accreditations - Paolo Ruffini, Andrea Tornielli and Matteo Bruni - and to the overall credibility of the Vatican press corps...
Il Tempo's Vatican correspondent Francesco … [...] the Vatican reporter is facing extremely serious criminal proceedings. The Rome Public Prosecutor's Office has applied to commit him for trial on charges of extortion, harassment and stalking of a former partner. According to the prosecution case, supported by chat logs and audio recordings on file, Capozza is alleged to have extorted money from his former partner by threatening to out him publicly as gay. Capozza was questioned on 23 April 2026. The case, which has been on foot for some time, has been subject to significant delays because - as the file shows - for over a year the defendant was recorded as "untraceable" by the police. The presumption of innocence until final judgment naturally applies. A second legal front has opened in Civitavecchia, the town where Capozza lives and which he openly flags up on his social media profiles. Two of his neighbours have reported him to the police for extremely serious conduct: he is …තව
