During the Consistory, Leo XIV told the cardinals, “Support me, stand with me in this battle against war,” pro-homosexual Cardinal Jean-Paul Vesco of Algiers told IlMessaggero.it on August 23. Questioning the “Just War” Cardinal Vesco questioned the Christian concept of a just war, arguing that “for those who are fighting, their own war is always just.” While acknowledging a right to self-defense, he asked, “But up to what point?” “In any case, war itself is not just. In the end, we no longer know where to draw the line.” Israel and its “Settlements, Settlements, Settlements” On Gaza, CardinalVesco recalled living in Jerusalem for two years and visiting Gaza several times during the Intifada: “I experienced the checkpoints and saw with my own eyes the humiliation they represented. Today it is much worse.” Even then, he said, it was difficult to believe in a two-state solution because the Israeli authorities did not want one: “Netanyahu has not wanted it for more than twenty years.” …Күбрәк
German Priest Steps Down to Marry His Longtime Secret Partner: German priest Andreas Unfried, 63, is stepping down after revealing he has been secretly in a relationship with a woman for many years. He has served as a priest for 37 years near Frankfurt. In an open letter, he announced plans to marry his longtime partner. The Diocese of Limburg, led by Bishop Georg Bätzing, said it respects his decision and thanked the priest for decades of "service". Unfried, in turn, thanked Bishop Bätzing for treating him with "respect".

In Italy, a Beach Club Run by Nuns Is in Jeopardy nytimes.com/2026/08/19/world/europe/italy-nuns-be… The Sisters of Charity of Saint Mary have hosted beachgoers in the town of Spotorno for decades. But change is coming.
Le suore in «guerra santa» per lo stabilimento Bagni Garrone a Spotorno, il comune lo mette all'asta Un gruppo di suore italiane si sta opponendo ai piani del consiglio comunale di espropriare il loro stabilimento balneare. Si tratta dell'ultimo episodio del lungo dibattito sul monopolio delle concessioni private lungo le coste italiane. La disputa, definita "guerra santa" da alcuni organi di stampa locali, riporta il Guardian, è scoppiata quando un tratto di spiaggia di 50 metri presso Bagni Garrone, una località balneare nella città costiera ligure di Spotorno gestita dalle suore dell'ordine delle Suore di Carità di Santa Maria, è stato messo all'asta pubblica dalle autorità, nel tentativo di conformarsi alle normative europee sulle concessioni balneari e ai regolamenti regionali sulle quote di spiagge gratuite. Le suore gestiscono il resort dal 1946, essendo state esentate dalle normali normative commerciali in quanto utilizzavano i proventi per scopi benefici, tra cui il finanziamento …Күбрәк
By Elisabetta Povoledo Reporting from Rome Aug. 19, 2026 It’s been billed as the Sisters of Charity versus the mayor. For 80 years or more, the Sisters of Charity of Saint Mary have occupied a small slice of terrestrial paradise, running one of thousands of beach clubs along Italy’s coast. But this longtime arrangement in Spotorno, an Italian town on the Ligurian Sea, may soon come to an end. The nuns’ beach, like all the Italian coastline, is publicly owned, and local officials say their lease will soon be put up for auction, along with those of other beachfront clubs. Some Spotorno residents are unhappy about it, saying that the nuns had supported the community for many years. Italian news outlets have picked up the story, several of them using variations on “Holy War” in their headlines. But Mayor Mattia Fiorini says he is simply trying to enforce regional and European Union laws that have been ignored for two decades. “Every Italian story seems a soap opera,” he said, adding, “We …Күбрәк
Builders: The Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X (FSSPX) is building a new church in Roswell, near Atlanta, Georgia. Construction began in late 2024, with a Neoclassical design inspired by Roman basilicas and incorporating Baroque elements. The church will house restored Carrara marble altars dating from 1925. The existing church will be converted into expanded parish and classroom space.
The Society of Saint Pius X has built a new church in Atlanta, designed to accommodate 500 worshippers. It is designed in a neoclassical style and draws inspiration from Roman basilicas, although some Baroque elements are planned.
The Safety Valve of the Holy Spirit: How Vatican II’s "Pastoral" Shield Preserved the Faith For sixty years, the Catholic faithful have been told to bow before a new deity: the elusive, shape-shifting "Spirit of Vatican II." We have been assured that the twenty-first ecumenical council was a rupture, a foundational reboot that dragged a reluctant, medieval Church into the glorious light of modern progressivism. The progressive wing of the Church has weaponized the Council's documents to construct a confusing, distorted Church on the ashes of the old. But their revolution possesses a fatal, architectural flaw. In their haste to remake the Church in the image of the secular world, the architects of this modern experiment forgot a fundamental rule of Catholic theology. By explicitly, repeatedly, and formally defining the Second Vatican Council as a strictly pastoral council, the Popes of the mid-twentieth century unwittingly revealed the ultimate proof of divine intervention.

Today, Vice President J.D. Vance attended a Mass in the Roman rite with his family at Old St. Mary’s Church in Cincinnati, reports Crisis Magazine editor Eric Sammons on x.com, who was present. “It was nice to see J.D. Vance and his beautiful family at Mass this morning,” Sammons wrote on X on August 23. Sammons said Vance lives nearby and that his family attends several Cincinnati-area parishes when in town. He added that this was Vance’s first visit to Old St. Mary’s since becoming vice president. Vance’s presence brought additional security. According to Sammons, Secret Service agents screened everyone entering the church with handheld wands and checked bags. Sammons said the screening caused only a minute or two of waiting, describing the agents as “professional, efficient, and quite friendly. He also noted that he had heard Vance say his family deliberately varies which churches it attends to avoid repeatedly inconveniencing parishioners at any one parish. #newsBibrwcfcti
J.D. Vance attended a traditional Latin Mass with his family at Old St. Mary’s Church in Cincinnati on August 23. Although Vance has previously said he is not particularly devoted to the Latin Mass, he has criticized restrictions on the traditional liturgy. His attendance attracted attention because it is unusual for a sitting U.S. vice president to participate in a Mass celebrated according to the 1962 missal.
Concerned Citizen @BGatesIsaPyscho Meanwhile in the UK There are now well over 2,000 Mosques in the United Kingdom - now they want the Government to fund private security guards because of attacks they claim are happening - yet nobody sees any proof of. Meanwhile Churches get burned to the Ground on a weekly basis & Politicians & Legacy Media remain silent.
Leo XIV: "Faith Is Not Given Once and for All" At today’s Angelus, Leo XIV appeared to blur the distinction between the objective content of the Faith and its subjective appropriation: “Faith is not something given to us once and for all. Rather, we continually need to rediscover the face of Christ.” He then urged the faithful not to retreat into religious certainties, adding: “When it comes to the Christian faith, we may be content with […] what has been handed down to us.” Instead, Leo advocated “friendship with Jesus” through an “ever-new encounter”: “This may also ask us to follow unfamiliar paths and to make choices different from those we had imagined. This is true both for our personal journey and for the journey of the Church, as well as for our pastoral choices, when we may sometimes think that it is enough simply to continue doing things as we have always done them.”
Two short video quotes from today's Angelus: Leo XIV offers unusual definitions of faith, suggesting that focusing on what has been handed down to us is insufficient.
"when we may sometimes think that it is enough simply to continue doing things as we have always done them" Do not simply continue going to the Novus Ordo. Instead, attend the Tridentine Mass!

Does Leo XIV Embrace Borderless Globalism? “People always come before borders, before definitions and institutions,” said Leo XIV at the Meeting for Friendship Among Peoples in Rimini, Italy, on Saturday. “This realization stands at the center of Christianity,” he continued with more platitudes, adding: “Evil is not fought with evil. It is time to oppose the false realism that rearms minds, words, and nations with the realism of mercy.”

Revelation 21:21 indicates, albeit metaphorically, that Heaven has 'pearly gates'. I suppose he is in favor of the gates of Hell prevailing against those, as well.
Prevost, UN henchman (accomplice): The mass migration, which is really a crime against our European peoples and ultimately spells the death of Catholic culture, is sugarcoated here by Prevost in an unbearable LEFTIST way.
Who Profited From the Iran War? Before the bombs fell, the money was already moving. In the weeks leading up to the Iran war, billions of dollars flowed into the family’s orbit — from Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar. At the center of it all was Jared Kushner, negotiating with Iran while managing a fund backed by Middle Eastern governments. Trump’s sons invested in drone companies before the war began. Oil markets saw a mysterious $580 million trade just minutes before a key announcement. And as the conflict escalated, their financial positions surged. This video connects the timeline, the money, and the decisions that shaped the war. Watch until the end — the pattern is clearer than you think. Watch until the end to understand what’s really driving global conflict The World Behind
Steve Greene @msugreen07 They want to hide their Jewishness. It was called "name changing" or "whitening." After WWII, Jews in America changed their last names to sound less Jewish because they were afraid of antisemitism. They wanted to blend in with white people and get better jobs. Continued...
Their influence was still corrupting just as that of Catholics who trivialized their faith. Before the Seinfeld series ended, many Americans like me came to the realization that laughing at people's misfortunes and mocking people when they are vulnerable is really not funny. This was a consistent theme in the series and is contrary to the Beatitudes. Now they have to choose genocide to continue their "success". Just like lukewarm Catholics.
