Religious Sisters Calls Listening to Fetal Heartbeat "Torture": Chilean Dominican sister Licarayén Torres has called a proposed law requiring women to listen to a fetal heartbeat before an abortion “torture.” Speaking in a social media video on July 15, she criticized the Chilean “Listen to His Heart” bill, saying: “Is it Christian, is it evangelical to make women go through this obligation that some lawmakers want to impose?”
Una religiosa chilena calificó de «tortura» el proyecto de ley que obligaría a las mujeres a escuchar el latido fetal antes de abortar, reabriendo el debate sobre el aborto en Chile. La iniciativa, impulsada por partidos de derecha, exige informar sobre la actividad cardíaca embrionaria y permitir escucharla antes del procedimiento, medida que ha generado fuerte controversia política y social.
Russian Tourists Face Deportation After Reading Bible at Hagia Sophia: Russian tourists Igor and Viktoria Filonov were detained in Istanbul after reading a passage from the Bible while visiting the upper gallery of Hagia Sophia. The couple was transferred to a migrant detention center. Turkish authorities investigate the "case" under a law related to "incitement to hatred".
Weil sie in der Hagia Sophia aus der Bibel lasen, landete ein Paar im Internierungslager. Und die Türkei ist ganz sicher noch eines der „fortschrittlicheren“ muslimischen Länder. Das also als kleiner Vorgeschmack, was uns in einem islamisierten Westeuropa drohen wird.
das ist der Islam, kein Zugeständnis für Christen auch nicht das Kleinstes, aber Forderungen von Moscheen, Straßengebete und vieles mehr, in ihren Gastgeberländern.

Bistro on Roof of St. Peter's Basilica Ready to Open: A bistro on the roof of St. Peter's Basilica is ready to open, according to IlMessaggero.it. The new dining area, located beneath the basilica's dome, could open as early as September.

Più che bucatini all'amatriciana, penne pomodoro e... basilica. Con vista, piuttosto ampia, sulle polemiche. Torna a far discutere la decisione del Vaticano di aprire un punto di ristorazione sul tetto di San Pietro, il celeberrimo Cupolone, luogo simbolo non solo della città eterna ma anche della cristianità mondiale. ...E invece ad alzare la serranda, in alcuni dei locali che un tempo servivano per il ricovero dei materiali usati dagli addetti alla cura della basilica, dovrebbe invece essere un vero e proprio bistrot, destinato a essere paradiso di quei palati pronti a peccare di gola. L'occasione... golosa - Sfumata l'occasione di inaugurarlo durante il Giubileo, resterebbe quella dei 400 anni dall'apertura di San Pietro, datata novembre 1626. Un'occasione piuttosto golosa per sfoggiare il nuovo locale, che sempre in base alle informazioni raccolte dovrebbe sfruttare al meglio anche il grande terrazzamento in grado di offrire una spettacolare visuale su tutta Roma. Il tutto tra …Meira
Cardinal Gambetti Expected to Leave St. Peter's Basilica: According to AdVaticanum, Cardinal Mauro Gambetti is expected to step down as Archpriest of St. Peter's Basilica by the end of the summer and become Archbishop of Chieti, a move seen as a demotion. The report attributes the change to Gambetti's fatigue after several demanding years, as well as controversies over security incidents at the basilica, administrative reforms, and other disputes. It also says his close association with Father Enzo Fortunato, who faced criticism over the World Children's Day initiative, weakened his position.
Three reasons: -Multiple personal leadership failures -Open war with the Chapter of Canons over power, money… and plastic chairs - The fallout from his initial trust with Fr Enzo Fortunato, whose handling of World Children’s Day left questions about wasted money,who is expected to leave anyways
Islam - är det slut i Amerika med kristna värderingar? www.youtube.com/watch Politiska beslut i många länder förbjuder kritisera islam och dem som säger något negativ, kan bli straffat. Men det är inte problem. Problem är att islamisera Europa ingår i politiska beslut att rensa Europa från kristedomen.

The bistro on the Dome will be built. Appeals, discontent within the Curia, nor a petition promoted by figures from the Catholic world were enough to stop the most debated project of recent months in the Vatican. After a long period of silence, the work has been completed and, unless there is direct intervention from Leo XIV, the refreshment point should open as early as September on the terrace of St. Peter’s, at the highest and most panoramic point of the complex, among the gigantic statues of the Apostles... ...The initiative was personally overseen by Cardinal Mauro Gambetti, archpriest of St. Peter’s. His five-year mandate has meanwhile expired, and Leo XIV has not yet decided whether to renew it. According to reliable sources, the original project foresaw a large restaurant with capacity for hundreds of people. Subsequently, the plan was scaled down, though the philosophy remained unchanged. In recent days, some managers from the Fabbrica di San Pietro, who supervised the set-up …Meira
While traveling through India, a man passed an elephant camp and suddenly stopped, puzzled by what he saw. The enormous animals were not kept behind steel bars or restrained with heavy chains. Each elephant was held by nothing more than a thin rope tied around one front leg. It was obvious that these powerful creatures could have snapped the rope in an instant and walked away. Yet none of them even tried. The man noticed a trainer nearby and asked, “Why don’t the elephants break free? Surely they’re strong enough.” The trainer smiled. “When they are very young and much smaller, we tie them with ropes just like these. At that age, the rope is strong enough to hold them. They pull, struggle, and try to escape, but they cannot.” “Eventually, they stop trying. As they grow larger and stronger, they continue believing the rope is more powerful than they are. They never test it again.” The man was stunned. These majestic animals were capable of freeing themselves at any moment. The rope was …Meira
