Different [contradicting] religions are needed to “broaden the horizon of truth, according to the model of the polyhedron,” Cardinal George Jacob Koovakad, prefect of the Vatican’s Dicastery for Interreligious Dialogue, said during a September 11 address at the Pontifical Catholic University of Argentina (UCA). He urged believers to welcome “as a gift, the action of God in the other religions,” adding that in their “precepts and doctrines” is reflected “a ray of the truth that enlightens all men.” Such “reciprocal appreciation,” he said, “will enrich our own identity through the reception of the other.” Koovakad presented the different religions as jointly contributing to the construction of the “City of God.” Each person, he added, must ask how to collaborate in this “common project of humanity.” Koovakad dreams of “universal fraternity”.
“These are not times for entrenching ourselves in partial and fragmented visions of reality. We need one another in order to broaden the horizon of truth, according to the model of the polyhedron, which is capable of incorporating the totality of visions and perspectives in the search for the common good, without anyone being excluded or discarded.” - Cardinal George Jacob Koovakad, prefect of the Vatican’s Dicastery for Interreligious Dialogue, delivered the address on September 11, 2026, at the Pontifical Catholic University of Argentina (UCA) in Buenos Aires.

Italian priest Don Leonardo Pompei was declared excommunicated for schism on September 11 by the Diocese of Latina. The decision follows a penal process conducted under a mandate from the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith. The key issue is reflected in Pompei’s own words. In a public broadcast on September 5, 2025, he summarized what he had told his bishop: “I have come to the decision not to continue exercising my ministry within the hierarchical communion of the Catholic Church.”
Don Pompei is a traditional priest who rejects heresies and blasphemies. He wants to save souls through the traditional Catholic doctrine, and that's why he was apparently excommunicated by Prevost (pro-sodomite, installed by Bergoglio) and Tucho (homosexual) who are not Catholics.

Katherine Bennett tells it like it is: «I don’t see why I should have to get fat if I eat fatty foods. I don’t see why I should have to get pregnant if I have sex. I don’t see why I should have to be rejected from Cambridge if I didn’t earn top grades. I don’t see why I can’t get married if I’m gay. I don’t see why I can’t be a pilot if I’m blind… OK, that last one is a stretch, but the sentiment is the same. In other words: I don’t like the natural consequences, so they must somehow be frustrated artificially. And this is what we have done. Unlike wise parents, who recognise that an infant cannot have whatever he wants — either because it is impossible or because constantly relenting will stunt his flourishing — we have become the parents who give in to every whinge, every tear and every complaint simply to pacify the child. We will even invent things to shield him from the consequences of his choices. What kind of person does that child become? We all know. Roald Dahl knew when he …Zwiṅwe
“The different religions […] offer a valuable contribution to the construction of fraternity,” Cardinal George Jacob Koovakad, prefect of the Vatican’s Dicastery for Interreligious Dialogue, said on September 10 at the Buenos Aires City Legislature. Koovakad constructs a “Father of all”: “Interreligious dialogue offers us the possibility of opening ourselves to the Father of all.” He later added: “Together, the State, religions and the Catholic Church, we can share a common language [...].”
El 10 de septiembre de 2026, el cardenal George Jacob Koovakad, prefecto del Dicasterio para el Diálogo Interreligioso del Vaticano, pronunció unas palabras en el Salón Dorado de la Legislatura de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires: “Las distintas religiones, a partir de la valoración de cada persona humana como criatura llamada a ser hijo o hija de Dios, ofrecen un aporte valioso para la construcción de la fraternidad y para la defensa de la justicia en la sociedad.” “El diálogo interreligioso nos ofrece la posibilidad de abrirnos al Padre de todos. Sin esta apertura, al Padre de todos, no habrá razones sólidas y estables para llamar a vivir la experiencia de fraternidad a nuestros semejantes.” “Por eso mi presencia hoy aquí es la de un hermano para afirmar y reconocer que juntos Estado, religiones y Iglesia Católica podemos compartir un lenguaje común y trabajar por construir sobre valores, el respeto, la dignidad y el bien común.”
Cartusialover explains on September 11 how the Charterhouse offers a radical answer to a world drowning in noise: silence, solitude and prayer. At first, the cell is a refuge. It shuts out noise, distraction and the demands of modern life. The monks call this phase the “Tender Mother.” But the comfort does not last. Soon the same walls become demanding. The routine remains. The view does not change. Prayer can feel dry. God can seem distant. The cell becomes the “Strict Teacher.” There is nowhere to hide. Regrets return. Illusions collapse. Sin is exposed. “Silence is a confrontation with the sad realities within us,” says Dom Lorenzo Maria. Yet the Carthusian does not see this darkness as failure, but as purification: “We rise and we fall,” the Desert Fathers said. The cell strips away the false God made in man’s own image—a God who is always comforting, manageable and predictable—and teaches the monk to seek the real God, the absolute Other.

Msgr. Roger Landry, 55, a prominent conservative U.S. priest, has been restricted from public ministry following non-sexual misconduct allegations by “multiple individuals.” The Diocese of Fall River said on September 11 that the allegations involve adults and possible violations of priestly codes of conduct in both Fall River and the Archdiocese of New York. After an initial investigation in New York, the diocese said there was “sufficient evidence” to impose restrictions while the case continues. Landry, who has also celebrated the traditional Roman Rite, denies wrongdoing. He says the accusations essentially concern alleged boundary violations between spiritual direction and friendship.
The Diocese of Fall River, Mass., announced Friday that Msgr. Roger Landry has been restricted from public ministry after allegations of misconduct were made against the priest by 'multiple individuals.'
Emma Bonino has died aged 78. May God have mercy on her soul. She was one of the most consequential figures in modern Italian politics, and Catholics should be honest about what that legacy means. She devoted much of her public life to causes fundamentally opposed to Catholic moral teaching, most notably the legalisation and promotion of abortion. She became a principal architect of Italy’s transformation from an overwhelmingly Catholic culture into a far more secular one. That makes Pope Francis’s repeated warmth towards her, including his extraordinary description of Bonino as one of Italy’s “forgotten greats”, all the more difficult to understand.

War Against the Ancient Mass Is Destructive for the Church - Cardinal Sarah When the generation of the ’68ers passes away, the unfounded, one-sided attitudes against Latin and Gregorian chant will pass away as well, Cardinal Robert Sarah told IlGiornale.it on August 27. Benedict XVI’s liberalization of the Traditional Latin Mass had a positive and even corrective influence on abuses in the celebration of the Novus Ordo, Cardinal Sarah said. “Many priests testify that discovering the Extraordinary Form helped them to celebrate better.” Furthermore, the faithful could choose which form corresponded more closely to the fostering of the faith. “But all of this was brought to an abrupt end by Traditionis Custodes while the Pope Emeritus was still alive.” Francis’ restrictions on the Latin Mass were “neither a wise nor a respectful choice.” Cardinal Sarah added that access to “ritual forms that have existed for centuries can never be artificially restricted by decrees.” Without referring …Zwiṅwe

Leo XIV Approves Maronite Archbishop of Damascus Today, Pope Leo XIV has approved the election of Sharbel Ghattas Maroun as the new Maronite Catholic archbishop of Damascus. A Lebanese-born priest, he has spent much of his ministry in the United States. Archbishop Maroun, 64, was elected by the Synod of Bishops of the Maronite Church. He succeeds Archbishop Samir Nassar, 76, whose resignation was accepted by the synod. Since 2020, Maroun has served as protosyncellus, a senior position comparable to vicar general, of the Maronite Eparchy of Our Lady of Lebanon of Los Angeles. Born January 6, 1962, in Kfarselwan, Lebanon, Maroun briefly worked for Crédit Libanais bank.

The spiritual battle before Armageddon: YHWH will bring forth from His quiver those unworthy to carry sandals on their feet. Clothed in sackcloth they will perform unusual miracles. 1) Revelation 11:3-6; “I will let my two witnesses prophesy for 1,260 days, clothed in sackcloth.” “They are the two olive trees and the two lampstands standing before the Lord of the earth.” If anyone tries to harm them, fire will come out of their mouths and devour their enemies; if anyone tries to harm them, that is how they must die. They have the power to shut the sky so that it does not rain during the days they prophesy; they also have power over the waters to turn them into blood, and power to strike the earth with every kind of plague, as often as they wish. 2) Isaiah 49:2-3; Yahweh made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of His hand He hid me; He made me like a sharp arrow; in His quiver He kept me. He said to me, “You are my servant, Israel, in whom I will be glorified.” 3) Jeremiah 51;20…Zwiṅwe

Leo XIV’s Prayer Intention Is … for the Care of Water: In September 2026, Leo XIV invites Catholics around the world to pray for the care of water. In his monthly prayer intention, he reminds Christians that access to clean water should be a right. “We beg forgiveness that it has been turned into a commodity, forgetting that it is a universal gift, a right without borders.” He encourages Christians to reject waste and pollution and to use natural resources responsibly. Caring for water, he says, is both an expression of love for creation and an act of solidarity with the poor.
The Pope’s Prayer intention for the month of September is to pray for care of water: “Lord of Life, you have given us the gift of water, source of fruitfulness, freshness, and hope. It quenches thirst, nourishes the earth, and heals wounds. We thank you because it is also a symbol of your grace and love that renews us through baptism. Today, we ask you to teach us to safeguard it with gratitude, justice, and responsibility. Forgive us for turning it into a commodity, forgetting that it is a universal gift, a right without borders, meant for all your children. We see with pain, so many brothers and sisters, who lack clean water, who walk for miles to find it, who become ill due to its scarcity. May your Spirit make us pilgrims of the essential, able to live with simplicity, denouncing waste and pollution, defending the right of every brother and sister to drink without fear and without inequality. May our care for water, be a sign of love for the Creator, and a commitment to the lives of …Zwiṅwe
