Journalists Raymond Arroyo and Robert Royal, and canon lawyer and priest Gerald Murray of New York talked on January 16 about the consistory of January 7-8. A short sequence, video below. Robert Royal commenting on Cardinal Grech’s contribution on synod: I think you hear that and you say, what in God’s name can that possibly mean? This is the gobbledygook we’ve been listening to for years about synodality and all this confusion. I mean, one of the things I’ve heard from sources is that many of these cardinals have said, "Look, we’re just confused about this. We’re tired of going over the same things again and again." These pronouncements keep coming out. When I read Cardinal Grech, I said to myself: This guy knows they haven’t gotten anything substantial done. You can try to preserve the illusion that there’s somehow a dynamic age of the Spirit underway, but it’s about to die. Raymond Arroyo: Well, he says there are good fruits here. He says fruits are blooming all over the place. …Күбрәк

President Trump on why he didn't strike Iran: "Nobody convinced me. I convinced myself. You had, yesterday, scheduled, over 800 hangings. They didn't hang anyone. They cancelled the hangings. That had a big impact."
When Machado gave President Trump HER peace medal, it was framed in a beautiful setting. It would have been very rude of him, and against Christian charity not to accept this freely given gift.
[Father Dom Lorenzo Scupoli – XVI-XVII Century AD; Otranto, Kingdom of Naples/Naples, Kingdom of Naples; (aged 79-80); Priest; Spiritual Writer] “Point VIII ~ Of the hindrances to a Right Discernment of Things, and of the method to be adopted in order to understand them properly The cause of our not rightly discerning all these things and many others is, that we conceive a love or hatred of them at first sight. Our understanding is thus darkened, so that it cannot judge of them correctly. Lest you fall into this delusion, take all possible care to keep your will pure and free from inordinate affection for any thing whatsoever. When any object, then, is presented to you, view it with your understanding; and consider it maturely before you are moved by hatred to reject it, if it be a thing contrary to your inclinations, or by love to desire it, if it be pleasing to them. For thus the understanding, being unclouded by passion, will be free and clear, and able to perceive the truth, and to …Күбрәк
A Great Day (Award Winning Catholic Short Film) Our Lady of Mount Carmel Studios youtube.com/watch?v=Hs980DuOBNU "A Great Day" (winner of the New York Indie Film Festival Awards) is a powerful short film that captures the heart of the Catholic faith, revealing the profound beauty of true forgiveness, healing, and spiritual renewal through the sacramental life of the Church. Rather than merely telling, this film shows—through visual storytelling and prayerful moments—the real power of God’s grace in action. Set amidst the real struggles of everyday Christians, the story explores how brokenness, resentment, and guilt are not the end—but the beginning of transformation when brought to Christ. Through the presence and ministry of Catholic priests, the film depicts the vital role of the sacraments, especially Confession, Anointing of the Sick, the Last Rites, and most importantly, the Eucharist, the source and summit of our faith. It also highlights the importance of prayer, both personal …Күбрәк
PRIME MINISTER MARK CARNEY JUST SAID IT OUT LOUD “I believe the progress that we have made and the partnership (with China) sets us up well for the New… World… Order.” Not rushed. Not off the cuff. He pauses between every word - New… World… Order - like he wants it to land. This wasn’t code. This wasn’t a slip. This was said out loud, on camera, deliberately.
"Consensus" at the Synod is like UN-talks - but in reality, critical voices were excluded during the Francis' pontificate - Fr Gerald Murray during the Arroyo-show.
Archbishop John Bonaventure Kwofie of the Catholic Archdiocese of Accra in Ghana has voiced concern over what he described as a growing influence of homosexuality and gay culture within Catholic Seminaries in West Africa, urging Rectors and other Formators to take decisive action and remain faithful to the Church’s teachings on priestly formation. In his Wednesday, January 14 speech at the opening of the 12th Regional Episcopal Conference of West Africa (RECOWA) Rectors’ Conference at St. Paul’s Catholic Seminary, Sowutuom in Accra, Archbishop Kwofie urged those entrusted with the formation of future Priests to carefully discern and nurture Priestly vocations from the outset, warning that inadequate formation at the entry level could contribute to the emergence of homosexual practices within Seminaries. “I am going to talk about one thing that is growing up like a monster in the Seminaries. Please do your best to weed out people of such orientation from our Seminaries because it …
Should Traditional Catholics Hold A Council To Elect A Pope? Bishop Roy Joins Stephen Kokx It's time to consider this, Bishop Roy says. His Excellency Bishop Pierre Roy joins the program for an hour and a half to discuss the possibility of holding an “imperfect council” to elect a Traditional pope. Source: WATCH: Should Trad Clergy Elect Their Own Pope?
It occurs that Bishop Roy is a humble servant in presenting his view that he shared regarding an imperfect general council as the ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC, and APOSTOLIC CHURCH which JESUS CHRIST instituted to continue until the end of time as His INFALLIBLE PERFECT CHURCH which has already determined the means to establish what needs to be implemented as also Father Paul Kramer has greatly presented and provided well in his books and much more which is exactly of our DIVINE ALMIGHTY HOLY TRINITY because JESUS CHRIST instituted that there is ONLY ONE TRUE CHURCH of DIVINE FAITH.

These “independent commissions” do not understand the meaning of suffering, sacrifice, and self-denial, and call all of this “abuse of power.” It is entirely in line with the post-conciliar church, which is trying to eliminate the cross from Christ's message.
Benedict XVI warned Cardinal Marx in 2021 that Germany's Synodal Way “will do harm and end badly if it is not stopped.” Marx apparently ignored the warning.
