Cardinal Zuppi Wants "a Mediation" on Euthanasia Legislation. Worse than Germany: Speaking on Luca Zaia's podcast Il Fienile in late July 2026, Cardinal Matteo Zuppi of Bologna, President of the Italian Bishops' Conference, said: "I know well that those who are ill don't wait for the law. There are also regions acting in a fragmented way. Politics should find a mediation. I've met sick people who wanted to leave. In these cases, respect is needed. The only choice you can make is to stay close to those who are suffering, which doesn't mean giving up your principles."
The Spanish Diocese of Cádiz and Ceuta has issued a statement expressing concern over the situation in Ceuta following the mass arrival of young male migrants from Morocco. Its main initiative is to dedicate this weekend's collections in Ceuta's parishes to the Diocesan Migration Office. The funds will be distributed through the San Antonio Migrant Assistance Center to address the most urgent needs in coordination with the relevant civil authorities. Meanwhile, videos circulating on social media reportedly show knife attacks, the looting of private homes and supermarkets, and other crimes committed by some of the illegal migrants.

The Real PRESENCE (Eucharistic Meditations) By Saint Peter Julian Eymard classiccatholicaudiobooks On 13 May 1856, the Paris bishops consented to Eymard's plans for a ‘Society of the Blessed Sacrament’. After many trials, Eymard and de Cuers established public exposition of the Blessed Sacrament in Paris on 6 January 1857 in a run-down building at 114 rue d’Enfer (which literally meant ‘street of hell’).[7] The Congregation of the Blessed Sacrament began working with children in Paris to prepare them to receive their First Communion. It also reached out to non-practicing Catholics, inviting them to repent and begin receiving Communion again. Father Eymard established a common rule for the members of the society and worked toward papal approval.[4] A second community was established in Marseille in 1859, and a third in Angers in 1862. Pius IX granted a Decree of Approbation in June 1863. Eymard was a tireless proponent of frequent Holy Communion, an idea given more authoritative backing …Máis

Poland to Inaugurate Europe's Tallest Marian Statue: On August 15, the Feast of the Assumption, Poland will consecrate a 55.6-meter statue of the Virgin Mary in Konotopie, near Toruń, making it the tallest Marian statue in Europe. The project, launched in March 2025, is funded by Polish billionaire Roman Karkosik. Estimated to cost around 100 million zlotys (€22.85 million), local officials hope it will become a major pilgrimage and tourism destination.
The tallest statue dedicated to the Virgin Mary in Europe will be inaugurated on August 15: In Poland, the inauguration of an extraordinary Marian monument illustrates this commitment to making the Virgin Mary a visible sign of hope and fidelity to a deeply rooted Catholic tradition.

Darshak Rana @thedarshakrana A houseplant just changed everything we thought we knew about consciousness. In 1966, Cleve Backster, a CIA interrogation specialist with a polygraph machine, was looking for ways to time how long it took different substances to travel up through plant tissue. So, he attached electrodes to a dracaena plant in his office and watered it, expecting to see the electrical conductivity change as water moved up the stem. Instead, the polygraph needle started tracing the exact pattern it makes when a human experiences an emotional response. Backster stared at the readout. Plants don't have nervous systems. They don't have brains. The signal made no biological sense. So he decided to test something that made even less sense. He walked across the room, looked at the plant, and thought about burning one of its leaves with a match. The instant the thought formed in his mind, before he moved toward the plant, before he struck a match, before he did anything physical, the …Máis
I saw a few experiments on plants. There were three of them in one video. Another had two. Everyone who passed by the plants the plants remained beautiful. The last person tore up the first plant and walked passed the second one. Later on they had the same people pass by the plant he didn't tear up. When it was his turn to pass the beautiful plant it started to shrivel up. And it showed fear! I once gave flowers to someone. and someone else passed by them as the person was holding them. The flowers started to die and wilt before our eyes. Once this person passed by them. Then they started to look beautiful again. I have a better experience that happened personally to me. It was very scary then. But now I learned from it. Which I had done then instead of waiting so long.
An suggestive exhibition by the Lecoq artists' collective was withdrawn from the church Chapelle du Bourg in Arradon, Bretagne, northwestern France, on 30 July. The exhibition, titled Le Poulailler 4, was scheduled to run from 27 July to 2 August 2026 and had been organized by the municipality as part of its cultural programme. The exhibition included photographs depicting two men kissing, a man wearing pink underwear in a suggestive pose, a photograph of male buttocks. Only after complaints about this homosexual propaganda, the municipality proposed that the most controversial photographs either be removed from the chapel or transferred to a nearby municipal exhibition space. The Lecoq collective declined both proposals and removed the entire exhibition on 30 July, before its scheduled closing date. Photographer Nikolaz Le Coq stated that he had not considered the photographs to be a profanation of the chapel and said he had [alledgely] not anticipated that they would be perceived in …Máis

The argument that a volunteer military is expendable is deeply troubling. Millions of trained and willing individuals could confront an unprepared US force Iran has 2 million soldiers. Another 2 million will readily and willing to pick up an AK or something and go fight. You now have 4 million people.

Visit our Blog: pagina-catolica.blogspot.com Father Gabriel Calvo Zarraute condemns synodality: "Synodality is a neologism invented by Bergoglio to destroy the Catholic Church, to democratize and Protestantize it. Let's call things by their name, my dears, because I'm fed up with being taken for fools! The Church is One, Holy, Catholic, and Roman, not synodal. That's anti-Catholic. What can synodality possibly give us? Well, the Church was already full of foxes, and now it will be even more so. Jesus Christ founded a hierarchical, non-democratic Church. It's not that Catholicism isn't democratic, but rather that it's anti-democratic, because Jesus Christ was condemned to death democratically. All the Greek philosophers were anti-democratic. Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, and so on. Even Cicero (in ancient Rome) was. All the ancient sages, all the great Greco-Roman thinkers, were against what we now understand as modern liberal democracy. So enough of this nonsense, especially when Pope …Máis
Several Ukrainian intelligence agents were caught far from Ukraine's borders. In fact, these intelligence agents were busted in Iraq, a nation Ukraine helped invade in 2003. According to the Iraqi government, these agents were busted before they could carry out any sabotage attacks inside the country. I would think that the US and Israel were behind this. NOT just Israel. We have not only lost but have been humiliated from day one. Ukraine Agents Caught in Iraq!

"38. Another person, of Valentia, in 1613, committed a great crime, which he was ashamed to confess, and therefore made sacrilegious confessions. But, being troubled with great remorse of conscience, he went one day to visit the altar of Our Lady of Halle, that he might obtain relief. When he arrived at the door of the church, which stood open, he felt himself thrust back by an invisible power. Then he determined to make his confession, and immediately entered. After making a general confession, he went home entirely consoled."

In the year 1610, there lived in Turin an obstinate heretic, who even on his death-bed would not be converted by all that was said to him by the various priests who were with him for eight successive days. At length one of them, almost by force, brought him to have recourse to Mary, with these words: Mother of Jesus, help me: "Mater Jesu, assiste mihi." And the heretic, as if awakened from sleep, exclaimed, "I will die a Catholic;" and indeed he became reconciled to the Church, and died in two hours. 36. Another infidel, who was living in India, was about to die, abandoned by all, but as he had heard the Christians so much extol the power of Mary, he had recourse to her, and the blessed Virgin appeared to …Máis
Bishop Strickland : "The warnings Our Lady gave concerning the Church and the world are sobering, and in many ways we can see them unfolding around us. But Our Lady did not leave us only with warnings. She also spoke of hope. She spoke of restoration. "..".. In order to free men from the bondage to these heresies,.." Recently, I had the great blessing of making a pilgrimage to Quito, Ecuador, to pray at the site of Our Lady of Good Success. It was a deeply moving experience, and I have continued to reflect on her messages since returning home. The warnings Our Lady gave concerning the Church and the world are sobering, and in many ways we can see them unfolding around us. But Our Lady did not leave us only with warnings. She also spoke of hope. She spoke of restoration. One part of her prophecy remains especially in my heart. It is her description of those souls through whom God would begin that restoration. Our Lady said: “The small number of souls who, hidden, will preserve the …Máis
