Leo XIV’s Appointee Honored as “Masonic Brother” in 2022: On August 13, Leo XIV appointed Rome Professor Umberto Longo to the Vatican’s Pontifical Committee for Historical Sciences. In December 2022, Longo gave a lecture in Venice on the Italian Freemason and comic artist Hugo Pratt (1927–1995). At the end, Gian-Paolo Barbi, Sovereign Grand Commander of the masonic lodge 'Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite', took the floor. He tapped Longo on the shoulder and addressed him as 'il fratello professor Longo' - 'Brother Professor Longo'. The phrase is noteworthy because older Masonic publications from 2013 and 2014 also identify an “Umberto Longo” as a Masonic “Brother” and Scottish Rite officer.
«il fratello professor Longo»: Questa settimana Leone XIV ha nominato il professor Umberto Longo membro del Pontificio Comitato di Scienze Storiche. Nel dicembre 2022, Longo tenne a Venezia una conferenza su Hugo Pratt. Al termine della relazione, Gian-Paolo Barbi, presentatosi come Sovrano Gran Commendatore del Rito Scozzese Antico ed Accettato, ringraziò il relatore con queste parole: «questa intensa emozione che il fratello professor Longo ci ha voluto donare con questa bellissima disquisizione». L’espressione «il fratello professor Longo», pronunciata dal vertice del Rito Scozzese, è significativa.
One more mason for the large number of masons in the Vatican. Prevost gives them high positions, to them and to the sodomites. It's more than obvious who Prevost serves.

@Jeffrey Ade Why is Russia our enemy? They are on the other side of the planet, they have never attacked the United States, they were our ally during WWII. Have they done anything that we have not done in the past? It is true that Russia has spread its errors throughout the world but so have we. We have exported abortion and contraception throughout the world, we have exported our "woke" ideology around the world, we pushed our COVID vaccine on the rest of the world ect. I have never understood why we have been told they are our enemy other then we were competing with them during the cold war to be the worlds superpower.
Sorry we are not fellow travelers. You and I are on different paths. I am on the path hopefully threw the narrow gates. You are skipping and singing and dancing on the road to ..... And why do you pick up stupid name calling you don't understand? Like calling me a slipper in another comment.
Cardinal Raymond Burke delivered a short video message to “those who are "discouraged by the persecution of the traditional Latin mass that is presently going on" (Wdtprs.com, August 13). The cardinal described the Mass in the Roman rite as "a tremendous good in the Church" that will "never be lost". "It is for us now even at the cost of suffering to fight for it that it be as available as possible to all the faithful who desire it." #newsItmmgdutxf
Bishop Gerard de Korte of’s-Hertogenbosch has responded critically to the open letter against the failed synodal project by his auxiliary bishop Rob Mutsaerts. Monsignor Mutsaerts did not consult him about this lengthy open letter, Bishop De Korte told Nd.nl on August 14. For him “a personal letter to the pope would have been the proper course of action, if Mutsaerts truly does not wish to sow division, as he writes”. Bishop de Korte added: “After all, a bishop or auxiliary bishop has his own means of communicating with the Bishop of Rome”. And: “In any case, at the request of Pope Francis and Pope Leo XIV, the Dutch bishops will continue building a synodal Church. On Friday, October 16, the bishops and Dutch religious orders will organize a national day of inspiration on synodality, at the St. John’s Centre in ’s-Hertogenbosch.” In 2020, because of differences with the liberal Bishop de Korte, Monsignor Mutsaerts stepped down from virtually all of his administrative duties in the …More
Bishop De Korte allowed a homo-prayer service in his cathedral at pink saturday (june 2017). That's all you need to know. He finally gave up his plan, as too much resistance raised from within his diocese. The bishop of Roermond (Van den Hout) allowed the same scandalous service in one of his churches last year, offering a platform to the Dutch building-a-bridge movement. No worries, they've nothing to fear from Rome as both bishops are VERY synodal.
On November 1st 1950, Pope Pius XII declared ex-cathedra the Dogma of the Assumption of Blessed Virgin Mary, in the presence of over 600 Bishops and 700,000 faithful.

Original Sin, Man’s Greatest Vulnerability, and Divine Order The Fall of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden reveals enduring truths about human nature, divine order, and spiritual vulnerability. Man’s greatest moral weakness is the voice of women, a vulnerability Satan immediately recognized and exploited. Scripture and the Church Fathers also teach that God established a natural order: men are to lead, and women are to submit and follow. When this order is inverted, sin, disorder, and suffering follow—a principle visible from Eden to biblical history and the New Testament. --- I. Adam and Eve: The Archetype of Male Leadership and Female Submission Genesis 2:18–24 establishes the relational and moral order of creation: > “The Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him… Therefore shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.” Adam was created first, entrusted with stewardship over …More

Bishop Olson Threatens SSPX Supporters with Excommunication: On August 14, Bishop Michael F. Olson of Fort Worth, Texas, issued a “pastoral” letter concerning the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX) — using sharp and decidedly unsynodal language. He warns that knowingly providing public, organizational, material, or financial support to FSSPX communities is "objectively sinful" and "can result in excommunication." Bishop Olson even described the FSSPX as a “self-formed and schismatic sect.” He specifically mentioned two FSSPX churches within his diocese — Our Lady of Mount Carmel in North Richland Hills and Our Lady of Fatima in Sanger — as well as the former Carmelite Monastery of the Most Holy Trinity in Arlington, whose nuns have been in open conflict with Bishop Olson for years.

" For the synagogue derived its origin from the law of Moses. But Abraham is far earlier; who, when he had won the victory, defeating the enemy and recovering his own nephew, was then met by Melchizedek who brought forth the gifts which Abraham received with reverence. It was not Abraham that brought them forth, but Melchizedek, who is represented as being without father, without mother, having neither beginning of days nor end, but like unto the Son of God ; of whom Paul says in the Epistle to the Hebrews that he abideth a priest continually, who in the Latin version is called King of righteousness, King of peace."
