Pope Leo XIV offered to step aside and hear Arnold Schwarzenegger's Confession when they met in October at the Vatican. Schwarzenegger said he jokingly declined: "You don't want to do that-it would take three hours."
Actor and politician Arnold Schwarzenegger has turned down the invitation from Pope Leo XIV to hear his confession. During a climate event in Kitzbühel, Schwarzenegger mentioned that Leo XIV invited him to step aside for a few minutes, but he jokingly refused, saying it would take three hours, reported Bild.de on January 24. He met Leo XIV in Castel Gandolfo during the embarrassing climate conference involving the blessing of the glacier in early October. Schwarzenegger added that he respects Pope Leo XIV and believes the Church has allegedly great power to help protect the environment and fight pollution. #newsKejvxjquln
An ecumenical commemoration is scheduled for 2030 to mark the 500th anniversary of the Diet of Augsburg and the Confessio Augustana. This was announced by Curia Archbishop Flavio Pace, Secretary of the Dicastery for the Promotion of Christian Unity, speaking to VaticanNews.va on January 22. Monsignor Pace described the Augsburg Confession correctly as an attempt to “find common ground, a common profession of faith, among the countries we now call the Reformation countries”. However, he added that it should be commemorated to “rediscover a common basis” for today. He even expressed the idea that the path toward unity might one day mean “sitting at the one table of Christ.” Confessio Augustana Denies Mass as Sacrifice The Confessio Augustana is a document that denies the sacrificial nature of the Mass. It was written by the Lutheran theologian Philip Melanchthon to unify the Reformation territories, a movement which, under religious pretexts, constituted a political revolt against …More
Sat Jan 24, 2026 - 7:00 am ESTFri Jan 23, 2026 - 4:03 pm EST (The Jason Jones Show) — The Patriarchs and Heads of Churches in Jerusalem issued a momentous statement over the weekend, denouncing “destructive ideologies” that abuse and silence their flocks. It’s no surprise that the part of the statement that sent the powerful into convulsions was its matter-of-fact inclusion of Christian Zionism as one of those destructive ideologies. “Recent activities undertaken by local individuals who advance damaging ideologies, such as Christian Zionism, mislead the public, sow confusion, and harm the unity of our flock,” they wrote. They warned that those who push the ideology of Christian Zionism “have found favor among certain political actors in Israel and beyond,” and that these bad actors are working together to “push a political agenda which may harm the Christian presence in the Holy Land and the wider Middle East.” Of course, the blowback from Zionist leaders and influencers has been …
Let your kindness be known to all. Philippians 4:5 January 24, 2018 - Feast of St. Francis de Sales Francis de Sales, The holy bishop and doctor of the Church we celebrate today is universally known as the saint of gentleness. You might be surprised, dear friends, to know that St. Francis de Sales had a naturally occurring temper known as "choleric." A human being's personality is the sum, so to speak, of character plus life experiences, especially the values—or, unfortunately, the disvalues—that one makes one's own. To understand the incredible work of God's grace and, at the same time, the immense effort made by Francis to build his personality to the point of being considered a living icon of Jesus, meek and humble of heart, we must recall some elements of psychology. To summarize as best we can, dear friends, according to psychology, character is the psychophysical structure with which one is born. It cannot be changed, but it can be educated. According to René Le Senne, there are …More
The human fascination with finding extraterrestrial life has turned a blind eye to a half century of Roe v Wade. How would we explain Planned Parenthood to E.T.?
Physician heal thyself. Some scriptural and doctrinal verification might be worthwhile given some of the "disinformation" which has come from the Vatican in recent times.
Can you figure out why IRAPUATO wanted to shutoff comments to this article? I figured I would share this and people could comment and ask him why he did/does that? Ask him for the rest of the post too! Can he Be Removed From Office Without Impeachment? The 25th Amendment Explained What is the 25th Amendment, and can it be used to remove a president from office without impeachment? Newsweek’s senior politics editor Jason Lemon explains. A growing number of lawmakers are calling for the 25th Amendment to be invoked to remove President Trump from office after Trump told Norway’s prime minister that his position on purchasing Greenland is tied to not winning the Nobel Peace Prize and he no longer feels obligated to “think purely of Peace.” The text message exchange happened on Jan. 18, when the Norwegian leader, Jonas Gahr Store, sent a text message to Trump on behalf of himself and the Finnish president, Alexander Stubb. The European leaders sent the message in an attempt to “deescalate …More
Yes, @Psalm 139 , @Irapuato does not like to engage in discourse with those who disagree with their agenda. They and their cohorts block me. They say they do not want argument! But then argue all they want when they want to! And frankly all this talk about Greenland is distraction anyway!
@Faith Hope Charity We do not equate to criminals, and liars and little less to those calling themselves Catholics in this channel and sending very nasty private messages using inappropriate language that the one calling himself "president" uses like the F.. word that has become one of his favorite. Instead of judging you should start waking up to the reality of what this sick man is. He has no values, no morals and no shame, there's plenty of videos from the news where he behaves like this, so what is to "equate" to you? to leave our christian values behind and follow an anti-christ that abolishes abortion, and gay rights, to do persecution in the name of who "Jesus" and "Mary". I did not vote for this man, nor have I voted for any governor that does not align to my faith and it's values. My hands are clean before the Lord, and I will not cover up liars nor applause them for doing little good to spread so much death and evil in the entire world. That's how the devil came to our Lord in …More
In Kurmin Wali, Kaduna State, Nigeria, gunmen attacked three churches during Sunday services on January 18, and kidnapped about 177 Christians. Although residents reported the abductions immediately, Nigerian authorities first denied they occurred. After public pressure, police confirmed the kidnappings and said security forces were deployed to find the victims.
Nigerian police have CONFIRMED that 177 Christians were KIDNAPPED from their churches last weekend .The confirmation comes after the police originally DENIED that the kidnappings had occurred. They have since denied the denial, calling it a 'measured response'
Just another deception from trump and his gang. Deceptions no matter how small or great are still deceptions. One after the other with trump, yet people are still in a deep sleep.
The dirty rats running the insane asylum in the positions of today's government are known to either lie and deceive us, or else to deceive and lie to us. BELIEVE NOTHING they are informing us about until you have the evidence and the proof.
The Catholic Church and Unaccompanied Migrant Children: It’s Worse Than We Thought Our LADY OF GUADALUPE, we pray that you will intervene in this PRO-LIFE situation of evil that has been exposed and reported so as to move the hearts of ALL Catholics, Christians, and those of good will to demand the accountability of the USCCB, and ALL the accomplices, to provide evidence to answer- ***WHERE ARE ALL THE MISSING CHILDREN???*** The Catholic Church and Unaccompanied Migrant … February 11, 2025 Last week, Corpus Christi For Unity and Peace (CUP) reported that $449 million of federal funding specifically related to shelter and transport of unaccompanied migrant children was allocated to the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) and Catholic Charities.

Last week, Corpus Christi For Unity and Peace (CUP) reported that $449 million of federal funding specifically related to shelter and transport of unaccompanied migrant children was allocated to the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) and Catholic Charities. This commendable effort by CUP has brought national attention to this important issue. This week Complicit Clergy uncovered additional funding related to other Catholic organizations under the Unaccompanied Alien Children Program (CFDA 93.676). When we include those other Catholic organizations, the total amount of federal funding to all catholic NGO’s is eye popping. The following analysis includes all Catholic organizations that received either prime grants or subawards related to CFDA 93.676 totaling $690 million between 2009 and 2024. To ensure accuracy, we excluded subawards granted to Catholic organizations by other Catholic organizations. As CUP originally reported: An estimated 500,000 unaccompanied migrant …
Shockingly, there has been no concerted effort by the Bergoglian nor the Prevost "synodal church" to track down the unaccompanied migrant children [UAC]. Previously reported are these Four Catholic NGOs who “served” the unaccompanied alien children across the border involving the formerBergoglio headed church; and as well is the silence regarding the missing children by the presently headed Prevost "synodal church": ● Catholic Charities USA: They provide immediate shelter, food, and long-term support like legal aid and health services, directly managing the day-to-day care for many unaccompanied minors. ● United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB): Acts as a coordinator for the UAC program, managing funds and programs, including shelter services and legal representation, often subcontracting to Catholic Charities. ● Catholic Legal Immigration Network, Inc. (CLINIC): Focuses on legal aid, not shelter, offering support to unaccompanied children in navigating immigration laws. …More
Introduction The first words of a new pope are always read for signals. Pope Leo XIV told the cardinals plainly in his first address to the College, “I would like us to renew together today our complete commitment to the path that the universal Church has now followed for decades in the wake of the Second Vatican Council. Pope Francis masterfully and concretely set it forth in the Apostolic Exhortation Evangelii Gaudium.” Pope Leo praised his predecessor for being “a humble servant of God and of his brothers and sisters,” and called on the Cardinals to “take up this precious legacy and continue on the journey,” expanding on several fundamental points from the late pope’s exhortation: “the return to the primacy of Christ in proclamation (cf. No. 11); the missionary conversion of the entire Christian community (cf. No. 9); growth in collegiality and synodality (cf. No. 33); attention to the sensus fidei (cf. Nos. 119-120), especially in its most authentic and inclusive forms, such …
