Israel is taking out the last remaining residential towers in Gaza to make it impossible for the remaining Palestinians to live there and turning them into refugees.

One of the most terrifying attacks carried out by Israel, where it completely destroyed the Mashteha Tower within a matter of seconds, as it is considered one of the largest and most beautiful towers in Gaza, and houses thousands of families living in it, despite the thousands of tents that were located on every side of this tower, aircraft launched no less than 6 deadly missiles that resulted in thousands of lethal shrapnel fragments, which led to the destruction of thousands of tents that were the only shelter for the families. This is not just a war, this is genocide.

Vatican Sponsors Subversion of the Faith: The report of the Synod’s study group number 9 attempts to dismiss Catholic teaching on the inherent immorality of homosexual acts "by stigmatizing that teaching as the expression of an obsolete ‘paradigm’ that no longer can be relied upon to communicate God’s will to His people," wrote Rev. Gerald Murray in TheCatholicThing.org: "This Vatican-sponsored destructive subversion must come to an end now."

‘Synodal Shepherds’ Attack the Sheep - The Catholic Thing

The Catholic Church is accustomed to attacks upon her teaching. The history of heresy over the centuries reveals the never-ending efforts of those who seek to replace Catholic doctrine with various errors. What the Church has only recently become accustomed to is attacks upon her teaching coming from some of her shepherds, especially from the never-ending pronouncements emanating from the office of the Synod of Bishops.
The latest imposition of the Synod is the recently published full-fledged endorsement of the homosexual lifestyle in the
Final Report of Study Group Number 9 “Theological Criteria and Synodal Methodologies for Shared Discernment of Emerging Doctrinal, Pastoral, and Ethical Issues.”
This report attempts to dismiss Catholic teaching on the inherent immorality of homosexual acts – and the disordered nature of the homosexual inclination – by stigmatizing that teaching as the expression of an obsolete “paradigm” that no longer can be relied upon to communicate God’s will …

Statement from Claire Elyse Brosseau on her decision to seek emergency relief to receive MAID | Dying With Dignity Canada

Toronto, Monday, May 4, 2026… My name is Claire Brosseau. I am the applicant in a constitutional challenge against the Government of Canada. I have been diagnosed with a severe form of bipolar I disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder, among other mental disorders. Over the past three decades, I have tried a wide variety of medications and treatments for my mental illness. Despite these efforts, my mental illness just continues to get worse. I have reached the limit of my ability to live like this — in a state of unrelenting suffering.
Current MAID law discriminates against people like me. In anticipation of my litigation, I was assessed and found eligible for MAID, but I cannot access this legal medical service just because my illness is a mental illness. If my suffering were from a physical condition, I could be eligible for MAID. They are drawing a distinction that is stigmatizing, paternalistic and without any valid justification. That is discrimination.
I have been waiting for …

We hope she changes her mind. However, if Claire Brosseau wants to end her life, she doesn’t have to advertise it as a form of victimhood, and be exploited to expand the culture of death in Canada.

On Friday, Leo XIV. visited Naples Cathedral. Shortly before his arrival, the blood of Saint Januarius reportedly liquefied off-schedule. The miracle traditionally occurs three times a year and has also been linked to earlier papal visits, including that of Pius IX in 1848. During visits by John Paul II in 1979 and Benedict XVI in 2007, the miracle did not occur. Francis witnessed a partial liquefaction in 2015.

(
LifeSiteNews) — My good friend and co-host at the Faith & Reason podcast, Fr. Charles Murr, told me once on the show that all a pope really needs to do to change the Church is to pick good bishops around the world.
With that in mind, let’s take a retrospective look at just a few of the Leo XIV bishop selections during his first year.
May 28 – Pope Leo XIV confirms priest who supports ‘women’s ordination’ as new bishop of St. Gallen, Switzerland

The man who preaches peace is carpet bombing the bride of Christ with invalid and therefore illegitimate "Bishops". A man must be a Catholic to be even considered for the office of Bishop.

Vatican Misrepresenting 'Courage' - Like Secular Media: The Vatican’s recent final report of the Synodal group on “emerging issues” [=homosexuality] drew criticism from 'Courage International'. This group helps homosexuals to live according to the teachings of the Church. In a May 8 statement, 'Courage' said the Vatican's report had committed “both calumny and detraction against the organization and its members.” Courage rejected claims that it engages in 'reparative therapy' and said that Synod officials could have clarified the matter by consulting its leadership rather than relying on one individual’s testimony. The organisation also expressed sadness that such criticism had appeared in an official Vatican document rather than from secular critics.

Cardinal Gerhard Müller on “fraudulent and blasphemous Blessings”:
“The heretical relativization of natural and sacramental marriage is openly welcomed,” Cardinal Müller told PerMariam.com regarding the final report of the Vatican's synodal study group on homosexuality.
“They do not openly deny the revealed truths. But they ignore them and build their own house of a comfortable and worldly-conforming Christianity alongside them.”
Cardinal Müller also stated: “The private or even paraliturgical blessing of same-sex and opposite-sex couples in irregular relationships is based on the heretical denial of the revealed truth that God created human beings as man and woman.”
Cardinal Müller further described such blessings as “fraudulent and blasphemous blessings.”

Cardinal Müller: Synod's homosexuality report aids ‘heretical relativization’ of marriage

Cardinal Müller: Synod's homosexuality report leads to ‘heretical relativization’ of marriage
The prominent German cardinal roundly slated the latest text to emerge from the Synod, as well as any proposals for blessing of same-sex unions.
VATICAN CITY (
PerMariam) — Cardinal Gerhard Müller has issued a blistering critique of the latest study group report from the Synod on Synodality and its platforming of anti-Catholic, pro-homosexual ideology.
The great welcome form LGBT advocates to the Synod Study Group 9’s recent report, is – says Cdl. Müller – greatly revealing. The report’s text highlights how “the heretical relativization of natural and sacramental marriage is openly welcomed.”
Such a move, adds the former prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, “is portrayed as the first step toward the recognition of LGBT ideology, which advocates nothing other than a materialistic view of humanity without God, the Creator, Redeemer, and Perfecter of humankind.”

Ah the FRUITS of Vatican II

Father Gerald Murray, a canonist and priest of the Archdiocese of New York, said he found the synod report “horrific” and a “subversive attempt to overthrow Catholic morality on the question of homosexuality.”

Fr. Gerald E. Murray on EWTN: "And the document, the report of study group number nine is horrific. I'll say that quite clearly. I've read that document. I find it to be a subversive attempt to overthrow Catholic morality on the question of homosexuality. And this is a really, really crucial moment for the church because. The program of subversion in plain sight of Catholic teaching on the immoral nature of homosexual activity and the disordered nature of the homosexual inclination, this is a number one target for some people in the church. And sad to say, the Synod office is now just another public relations arm of that pressure group."

Digging into denialism: Emily Enns wins the 2026 Peter Mansbridge Investigative Writing Award

The Master of Journalism student earned the award for investigating the roots of residential school denialism and highlighting Indigenous resilience through on-the-ground reporting in Kamloops, B.C.
When Emily Enns began exploring a story about the replacement of existing Canadian street names with Indigenous ones for her second-year
Master of Journalism (MJ) investigative journalism project, she did not expect it to lead her into one of the nation’s more contentious historical debates.
While researching, she came across an online rant opposing street-name changes in Winnipeg. What surprised her was not the content but that it was written by a professor at her alma mater, the University of Manitoba (UM). Curious, she began looking more closely at the professor’s work, which led her to writings that downplayed the impact of the residential school system.
Enns soon discovered that some of the most visible disseminators of residential school denialism were not fringe commentators but …

Polish Bishop Reprimands Priest for Criticizing Pro-Homosexual Cardinal

The Polish priest Beniamin Sęktas (ordained in 2020) from the Diocese of Drohiczyn in eastern Poland publicly called for the resignation of Cardinal Grzegorz Ryś, 62, of Krakow.
Pope Leo XIV had promoted the pro-homosexual Cardinal Ryś from Łódź to Krakow in November 2025.
In an open letter published in mid-December 2025, Rev. Sęktas asked the Cardinal to resign. He called Cardinal Ryś a “public collaborator of rainbow Catholics.”
Furthermore, Rev. Sęktas noted that Cardinal Ryś promotes extraordinary lay ministers to distribute Communion.
The letter included statements such as:
“You continue to shock and scandalize many Catholics”
“the cynical face of an activist seeking the applause of opinion-forming elites”
Bishop Henryk Sawczuk of Drohiczyn summoned Rev. Sęktas and reprimanded him. On May 4, the Diocese of Drohiczyn published a statement saying that the priest had violated the media guidelines adopted by the Polish Bishops’ Conference in 2023.
The bishop also forbade him from …Siwaju sii

After studying the gut microbiome for more than a decade... Here's the world's leading gut scientist, Tim Spector’s 8 rules to perfect gut health: Rule 1: Eat 30 different plants a week.

If it's unrealistic naturally, its unlikely to be beneficial scientifically. Who eats 34 different plants a week? Who eats algae and 7 different types of mushroom? Every different food you have in your diet requires its own tools for breakdown and assimilation and its own immunological response as it is "other" from self. The body is a miracle of adaptation of course but why tax it with such variety. I would think a simple diet consisting of clean food with all the necessary components balanced reasonably would be better than a very varied diet. The test anyway of course is not mainly microbes in the gut but the quality of the blood and functioning of the brain and organs.

Book review: “The Devil in Rome” by Rachel Mastrogiacomo - Pax Orbis

This account by Rachel Mastrogiacomo of her experience as a survivor of Satanic Ritual Abuse (SRA) horrifies and mystifies, but it also points to the ultimate triumph of good over evil.
by Kathy Clubb

Rachel Mastrogiacomo’s book, The Devil in Rome, tells the story of her time in Rome studying, whilst also being groomed by a diabolical sexual predator who was a Catholic priest. Her tormentor was later to plead guilty to felony sex charges, given 10 years’ probation and then laicised.
The foreword is by Janet Smith, an American academic who has helped support Mrs. Mastrogiacomo throughout her journey back to wholeness. Ms. Smith is also one of those who worked to ensure that Rachel’s story was made known within and without the Church. One notable thing about Ms. Smith’s contribution is her admission that prior to learning of Mrs. Mastrogiacomo’s experience, she didn’t take the activity of satan in the world very seriously; this is surprising for a highly-qualified philosopher and …

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said he told Pope Leo XIV on May 7 that Iran poses “a danger to the world, which is largely recognized.” He also described the Vatican meeting as “very cordial and important,” downplaying suggestions of animosity between the US and the Holy See.

Sec Marco Rubio: "I expressed to them on the situation with Iran, expressed our point of view about why this was an important and the danger that Iran posed us to the world, which is largely recognized." "The Holy Father is a spiritual leader, he's the first and foremost, that's his role to play, and obviously the church has always interacted on behalf of a mission for peace and a respect for all of humanity." "But at the end, it was very cordial and important meeting, and it's important to share our points of view and an explanation and an understanding of where we're coming from, and I thought it was very positive."

Mr. Rubio is mistaken; the real global danger (not for bodies but for souls) is that Satan is now sitting on the Throne of Peter and no one realizes it, treating him as if he were the Vicar of Christ.

Introduction:
According to a report by
Diane Montagna a few days ago, Cardinal Victor Fernandez “has prepared a declaration of schism should the Society of St. Pius X proceed with episcopal consecrations in Écône on July 1. The Vatican is also making pastoral arrangements to welcome those who may leave the SSPX after it ordains new bishops without papal permission.”
But not content with a mere re-run of JPII’s 1988 decree Ecclesia Dei Adflicta, Niwa Limbu (Vatican correspondent and editor of the Catholic Herald) reports that this time around, the Vatican will up the ante, including in its punitive post-consecratory declaration of schism not only the bishops involved, but all SSPX priests.
And going one step further, Bishop Fellay announced from the pulpit in St. Mary’s, KS on Good Shepherd Sunday that even the SSPX faithful would likely be declared schismatic:
“I prefer not to be a prophet here, but I’m pretty sure that there is an enormous probability that all of you, we …
