Leo XIV Appoints Indian Bishop Practicing Indigenous Adivasi Rites: Today, Pope Leo XIV has appointed the indigenious Bishop Albert Hemrom, 57, as Coadjutor Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Guwahati, India. This video was taken in October 2023 when he celebrated the silver jubilee of St John Vianney Church in Uriamghat, Assam. Monsignor Hemrom participated in the Aarti ceremony with the Adivasi community. Women held ceremonial brass platters (thali). Incense was waved before the bishop to purify him and invoke blessings. Then, a red tilak blessing mark was placed on his forehead. Finally, he was presented with a traditional Assamese gamosa, a handwoven white-and-red ceremonial scarf, which was draped around his neck.

Today, Leo XIV has appointed Monsignor Michael Router, 61, as Bishop of Derry, Ireland. He was ordained a priest in 1989 for the Diocese of Kilmore and has served as Auxiliary Bishop of Armagh since 2019. Francis Was "Commited to Gospel" In April 2025, Bishop Router wrote a warm statement on Francis's death. He described the late pope as a spiritual and inspirational leader who guided the faithful over twelve years with humility, compassion, and commitment to the Gospel. He also said Francis embodied simplicity and service from his earliest days as priest and bishop. Demanding Irish Houses for Immigrants On [Muslim] immigrants, in a January 2020 statement, Bishop Router urged Ireland, as the country of "a thousand welcomes," to consider with compassion its responsibility to welcome the stranger. The Irish should meet the housing needs of immigrants, he demanded. Praise For and From the Wrong Faction In January 2025, the US Episcopal woman bishop Marianne Edgar Budde attacked Donald …Lokwengentiwe
Cardinal Müller Misrecites Latin during Ordination: On 4 July, during the ordination of three priests for the Institut du Bon Pasteur in Courtalain, France, Cardinal Müller said "manus" ("hand") instead of "munus" ("office" or "ministry"). The correct wording would have been: "...so that they may persevere in this office."
Cardinal Müller said "manus" instead of "munus. Müller was supposed to say: “Da, quæsumus, omnipotens Pater, in hos famulos tuos Presbyterii dignitatem; innova in visceribus eorum Spiritum sanctitatis, ut acceptum a Te, Deus, secundi meriti munus obtineant, censuramque morum exemplo suæ conversationis insinuent.” (“Grant, we beseech Thee, Almighty Father, invest these Thy servants with the dignity of the Priesthood; do Thou renew in their hearts the spirit of holiness, so that they may persevere in this office, which is next to ours in dignity, since they have received it from Thee, O God. May the example of their lives lead others to moral uprightness.”) Instead, Müller actually said: “Da, quæsumus, omnipotens Pater, in hos famulos tuos Presbyterii dignitatem; innova in visceribus eorum Spiritum sanctitatis, ut acceptum a Te, Deus, secundi meriti manus obtineant, censuramque morum exemplo suæ conversationis insinuent.” (“Grant, we beseech Thee, Almighty Father, invest these Thy servants …Lokwengentiwe
A few days ago, in a KTV interview regarding the FSSPX, he stated that it was a "liturgical impossibility" for the Superior General, as a priest, to preach before bishops during an episcopal ordination. And yet, he himself utters an incorrect term during the Consecration. Well, as long as no priest preached there, it certainly isn't a "liturgical impossibility" according to the Cardinal's definition....
"It is obviously possible to be fully Catholic while living the sacramental life according to the books of 1962. It is absolutely unacceptable to affirm the contrary", Cardinal Raymond Leo Burke told the organisers of the Chartres pilgrimage ‘Notre-Dame de Chrétienté’ in a July 14 YouTube.com video. And: "The liturgy according to the usus antiquior of the Roman Rite is an inestimable treasure of the Church which must be preserved and cherished because it is intimately linked to the very identity of the Roman Catholic Church." Cardinal Burke argued that the Roman rite has proven to be a powerful instrument of evangelization: “It is evident that this liturgy is missionary," he said. "This is seen by its fruits today as in centuries past, because it attracts through its sense of the sacred and transcendence." He added that this is "particularly evident with the younger generation," which he said has "a profound hunger for the spiritual in an increasingly horizontal world." Vatican II …Lokwengentiwe
He speaks with forked tongue. Because it's not just about the Liturgy. It's also about VCII and the gross apostasy and heresies running rampant throughout the Church; and the abandonment of the Deposit of Faith by her leadership.
Today, Leo XIV accepted the resignation of Italian born Bishop Antonio Santarsiero Rosa, 75, of Huacho, Peru. No successor was appointed. The resignation follows allegations of homosexual misconduct. In April 2026, InfoVaticana.com had reported that complaints had been submitted to the Apostolic Nunciature in Lima and to the Vatican, accusing Santarsiero of homosexually abusing a former minor seminarian and a priest who had served as his secretary. As usual, Santarsiero has categorically denied all allegations. The seminarian claimed Santarsiero subjected him to unwanted sexual contact and used promises of scholarships, employment, and opportunities within the diocese to exercise influence over him. The former secretary to Santarsiero alleges that the bishop subjected him to unwanted physical contact and psychological manipulation. According to the dossier, the priest also claims Santarsiero attempted to discredit him by spreading claims about his sexual orientation after he rejected …Lokwengentiwe
During a recent Alpine Mass celebrated in the woods before a cheerful gathering of elderly people, Bishop Derio Olivero, 65, of Pinerolo, Italy, said that there is one part of the Mass "that no longer works", the Penitential Act, reports MessaInLatino.it on 14 July. The blog notes that during Mass, the bishop wore his characteristic episcopal bandana as headgear. Monsignor Olivero is a pro-homosexual activist. During the Alpine Mass, he said sentimentally, "The Mass is a slow act of love. The acts of love are not done in a hurry; caresses given in haste become slaps. So, if you're willing, let's do something: look into each other's eyes for a moment. Look at the person beside you and think: 'This is my brother; this is my sister.'" #newsUaxcxarjhf
Trudeau Appears in Katy Perry’s Video Watch It Burn: Katy Perry’s new Watch It Burn promo briefly features former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in the background. The music video includes scenes inside a church, with Perry shown sitting in a church pew. The imagery, combined with the lyric 'watch it burn', is reminiscent of the wave of church arsons in Canada during Trudeau's time in office. Since 2021, more than 120 churches have been damaged by arson or vandalism.
Former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau appeared in the background of a promotional video for girlfriend Katy Perry’s latest music video titled “Watch It Burn” that has led to speculation of a connection to churches burning down in Canada over the past five years.
Anik Singal Someone built a Chrome extension that fact-checks politicians while they're still talking. It's called InTruth, made by a Reddit user as a research project on AI and deception. Point it at a live debate, interview, or press conference. It transcribes the speech in real time, pulls sources from the open web, then sends everything to Claude for a verdict. True, misleading, or false tagged before the next sentence even starts. No waiting for tomorrow's fact-check articles. No "we'll get back to you on that." The lie gets caught in the same breath it's told. That's insane lol. facebook.com/…-politicians-while-theyre-still/101…
Politicians do not lie nearly as often as people think they do. They make statements in such a way as to lead people to infer things which are not true, which is remarkably easy.
Today, Cardinal Robert Sarah delivered an address at the European Parliament in Brussels. He noted that the European Union uses development aid and international agreements to export abortion and gender ideology to African nations. He spoke of "ideological colonization", arguing that modern Europe increasingly seeks to influence African legislation through trade agreements, development assistance, and diplomatic pressure. Words Have a Meaning Opening his address, Sarah questioned whether Europe and Africa still share a common understanding of the language that dominates international diplomacy. "Can we still understand each other? Do the words we use - human rights, dignity, development, freedom, health, gender, family - still mean the same thing to those who pronounce them in Brussels, Strasbourg, Kampala, or Conakry?" Inconsistency Is Deliberate One of his examples is the expression “sexual and reproductive health” that often means abortion. Another example is the term “gender equality …Lokwengentiwe

The “methodology” of the consistories under Leo XIV risks undermining open debate, Cardinal Raymond Burke told Edward Pentin on CardinalNews.substack.com (July 15) [as if the problem were not the content and personnel policy]. Cardinal Burke said dissent in the small groups is excluded because the reports reflect only “what every cardinal agreed upon,” meaning significant minority views may be omitted. Overall, he described the consistory as a “very controlled” process, with pre-selected discussion leaders and limited opportunities for free intervention. “Synodality Has to Be Stopped” Turning to the growing use of “synodality” in the Church, Cardinal Burke questioned its theological and historical basis: “There is no definition of synodality, there’s no history of it in the Church.” His concern is the merging of established structures, such as consistories, with this undefined concept, “We have to insist that this whole synodality business stop.” He argued, without laughing, that synodality …Lokwengentiwe
"It would be unfair to ask God to help me and not the other team": At a press conference on 13 July, Spain's football coach, Luis de la Fuente, said that he prays every day.

30,000 'Trojan Horses': Europe and Britain Face Muslim Domination and Escalating Threat of Civil War A Muslim call to prayer marked the 100-year anniversary of the opening of the Grand Mosque of Paris. Once the only official mosque in all of France, there are now almost 3,000, with more than 30,000 mosques across the European Union, including one of the newest, the Grand Mosque in Strasbourg. Although Muslims remain a small percentage of the population in the European Union and the United Kingdom, their numbers have grown to over 50 million, making Islam the fastest-growing religion there.
